Update!!!

Watup RIU. Finally an update for everyone sorry it took so long. I somehow broke the card for my camera and did not get a new one until today. But yea, so one was male one was female I'm pretty sure. I got one more white rhino seed coming up I'm going to transplant him now or right when he wakes up.

O right and I did start flowering about a week ago. Sadly I do not remember the exact day but it's gotta be 4 - 7 days now.

Pics pics!!!

Day 35

A plant with balls... I think




Female fo sho!!! Looking mighty healthy I'd say too




White Rhino coming up waiting on fem or male... How long until I know, he's been going 12/12 from seed





More comments would be nice! Even if I'm doing something wrong call me out!!! I have not started nutes yet even though I have a bottle, I figured it's kinda big already I'm thinking shes gonna end up getting too big.
Any ideas on what I can do about that. I only have about maybe 6 inches left and she'll be touching the light in like 10 inches.

And another thing, any ideas on trimming? I'm completely lost there. I still don't have a fan inside for stem... strengthening but the bottom is getting really messy.

Thanksss

nice work dude.

in answer to your question youre going to have to start gently bending her into the shape you need, its call 'LST' or 'low stress training'

heres a vid to get you started, do some research yourself too

Yea I've read on LST and all that I just figured I woulda had to start earlier. I don't know if her stem is gonna be strong enough to bend so much at this point.

you wont want to wait until the stem is strong or it'll just snap.

I didn't mean I want to wait for that, I'm saying it's going to be at that point soon isn't it. I have not had a fan for circulation INSIDE the box so the stem has not really built up as much as it could have probably. And LST methods you choose. The one I had planned out would not work at this point. I've never seen anyone LST this late in the game, any ideas or link to post?

Another thing I realised is the door is starting to press some of the leaves up tight. So the ends are getting bent, this is not too big of a deal since the buds... grow off the main stem... Or is this not right? Anything I can do with these leaves to help em out, other then tying them to the side I guess?

Thanks a lot again everyone!!!

Update Update

Hey guys. So a few more pics. Sadly my camera cant focus in on super small things but I got pics as best I could. Also I took a pic of the full box, that light can only go up an inch or two more so I'll definately need to LST. Although I read you should not LST during flower but I really have no choice. I'm just going to bend her to one side and I think that shuold be fine.

Day 41...

Quick full shot to show you the space I have left... Which is basically none. If I bend her too, the other plant is going to lose a lot of light so not sure how to work around that yet.

Aite guys thats it for now. Thanks for comments, followers, and anything else.

PS... If anyone can throw me a link of what possibilities I have with a male are... I'm too lazy to research it cause I'm probably just gonna let him be. But hes been sitting on my balcony still growing strong.

Dude Grow looks great... Is this ur first grow? I mean its spectacular for a newb...just shows what a lil research, right ingridients and a small space can do.....i dont know what to say about ur space. Subscribed fo sho.....

Thanks johnny. yea it is my first grow. I wish I had more space!!!

So I'm thinking about LST. These grow bags are only 2 gallons. If I LST would I have to transplant again? Also I'm already in the flowering phase so transplanting and LST should nto be done right?

And how about trimming fan leaves. It's getting really messy in there.

Thanks

you dont have to transplant when low stress training. just see if your plants will bend at all. if they dont i wouldnt worry about it and would just top them so they dont touch the light.

like jus shooting this out there. could u wedge a small wooden dowel in there? kinda like a pull up bar for plant but it would actually be holding main stem down like at a tilt instead of lst tying down? i dunno seems like something that could possibly happen in nature unlike LST....and not much stress. ill draw a pic and try to post if ya dont get it

So I've used a bungy cord I found to bend the plant over for now as she was definitely too big today. (Inch from the light)

COMMENTS APPRECIATED

Day 44



I still find it so crazy how that top turned back 90 degrees to fully vertical in about 2 - 3 hours...

Little guy loses a lot of light now sadly. I wish there was a way I could trim off some leaves. But I have not found a solid post/video that shows me how and what I can cut off.

UPDATE

Hey guys. Sooo my plant is getting really yellow. And its not only on the bottom anymore. It's starting to creep up and I'm really worried theres something horribly wrong that I don't know about.

Either way here are some pics. If you have any ideas of WHAT THE PROBLEM IS... and.... WHAT I NEED TO DO TO FIX IT... it would be greatly appreciated...

Day FittyOne Lots of pictures




Main Cola... But I'm LSTing so the others should be close behind huh?


Thanks a lot errbody!!

well bro the yellowing is prob from lack of food now....Id say you have used up what was in the soil and that mama is a hungry mama shes getting big...i would check ph but im not convinced its that...so check ph for peace of mind and then give it some food......btw i got an outdoor short rider comin up....jus had to tell someone...actually i got 13 comin up but jus 1 short rider. oh yeah check heat and humidity in cabinet....if its too dry and heat on plant from light? could yellow her up? Peace out bro...

Hey quick question... What kind of ventilation do you have? I have a cab about the size of yours and a 150w HPS also, and my temps are outrageous; almost 90 on occasion and i have 2 fans pushing about 70 cfms each. What are your temps?

I'm only using two fans from radio shack as you can see in the pictures. Go look back from day one and you'll see. I'm not really sure what my temps are cause theres no thermometer. It's been cool in my area but it's starting to get hotter so I'm probably going to buy one this week.

Now as for my problem. I heard a lot of people say Magnesium deficiency. (lol couldnt spell those last two words). But from what I have read, that Mag Def only happens when the pH is low. And if anything my tap water is high, it's always 7 if not more. 6.5 - 8ish. I have FloraBloom Nutes from GH. Would it be worth adding that?
