Few questions

Hello everyone, this is my first post and i have a few questions.


My seeds right now just sprouted out and i was wondering how long i wait to plant them like how much does the seed need to sprout before i put it under.

How much light do i give it? like throughout her life.

And i was also wondering if it was possible to speed up the time for the buds to form and how to do this. i guess i want to know how to make a premature plant yet still get some bud out of it just for myself. And how long it would take for my plant to get to the stage where i can speed up the stage to where it will bloom buds.


Thanks so much:mrgreen:

Since you have sprouts,put them under 24 hour of lighting and wait until they are 12" (if yield not a factor) and put them on a 12/12 routine until they flower out.There's no hurrying a plant.The only thing you can do is give her more night,but that will have your yield alot smaller.KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!

Don't hold me to this, I'm not a marijuana guru, but I believe the longer you let it grow and develop its buds the better it will be, Thats what I was told by a friend.
I may be wrong, but I may not be.
Also, I know what you mean, I want to speed up my plants growth too but overall, its better if you don't. :)

So i give 24 hrs light until 12 inches but how much darkness do i give it till its 12 inches.



Now after its 12 inches what do i change my lighting to?

thanks!

That is true in some respects,but ultimate potency lies in the genetic code of the plant itself. KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!

Yes once she is her desired height then you induce the 12/12. I know that you can do a whole indoor grow with hps lighting.KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!

the move lighting the better. also think about ventilation if u havnt already.

theres been a few posts about light cycles and ppl wondering if different cycles will speed the process up and slow it down depending on how much and the quality of the bud u want.

i wouldnt try any of these myself though, unless alot of ppl have had success.

all i can say is, be patient ! :p

Just keep her under the light until you see at least five nodes of green growth,by that time she should be 12" and cut you lights backto 12 hours on and 12 hours in the dark and you will see the hairs we all know and love. KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!

5 nodes? what do you mean?

But if i just keep her under a light until she is 12 inches wont she dry out and die or something? I can play mother nature and keep her until a constant light flow for weeks at a time until she reaches 12inches?

The nodes are where the leaf stems connect with the main stem. No she won't die or dry out if you give her water and nutrients(when needed).KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!
