So my old 85w bulb died on me a week ago, lasted like 8 months. Bought a new 85watter.

She has only been getting 4 42w daylight cfls around her, once she gets bigger and spreads out Ill add the 85w and eventually the other 4 42w softlight bulbs.
She took good to her mainline, both internodes are starting to come out now.

Looking good! I quickly topped the two new internodes, didn't notice anything bad. Everyone says wait though. I probably would :weed:

oooooooooooo what a cute little babby! I'll be stalking this thread to watch her grow up :). First time hearing about this mainlining stuff, it all looks real interesting o.o

O and Im debating topping again like so DSCI0593.jpg but im pretty sure it will only spread around my yield.
What do you guys suggest?

I have added this mornings coffee grounds to a soil mixture to top off the cup the seedling is in. I then checked it with my ph soil meter and hour or so later and still didnt go down, still sitting at around 6.8 - 6.9.



Damn first post and your already giving advice.. I dunno ..
Just because someone only has one post on this forum, doesn't tell YOU nothing about that persons knowledge or past experience ..... Just saying

I really would not like to top anymore, still plan on cutting the earlier shoots off though, that sound good?

Feeding full strength Big bloom now. Next feeding and Ill be adding Grow Big, and soon after both with Tiger Bloom.
Still only using four out of nine lights, soon to be five with the 85watter, and I think I will add the soft-lights a couple weeks before flower.
I plan on vegging almost 2 months, but not quite, because I need her to finish around a certain time. She will go into flower a few days before Christmas.

Looks beautiful nice and even
Thanks!

Well, I've decided to leave her alone now, I think I can support her branches nice and even while she grows. She is mainlined right?




I will trim earlier nodes depending on how sparse I think they will be in flower. Heres how I plan on tying her down, pretty simple.



And I think I was wrong Critical, shes only going to have TWO mains.
