gimme some pointers if you have any

i have a buddy that has about six lights on his girls and they werent doing this good at this age i know ill have to up my lights in the future but ithink they doing pretty good i dont have a lot of space to use that why i have them all in one pot i'm thinking half will be males so it should work out two plants in one pot i thinking it can be done is there any way to tell the sex this early

comments anyone

Mixed some regular dirt from outside with some miracle grow potting soil and water with rain or boiled water trying to go all natural . The seeds are from a plant that was grown outdoors in the summer and pollenated(spell check) from a male that was one of two plants. The female of the two came out small but smoked good was buds mostly purple but only turned purple towards the end about three weeks before harvest yield was small.The female which the seeds came from just sprung up from a batch that was planted the year before they were planted late and non sprouted except for her ,she just came up out of no where this summer ,good smoke but had alot of seeds decent yield too . thats a bud from her laden with seeds.

and this was the female out of the two plants where the other was the male this had alot of seeds too but i didnt get to save any .comments please

Got about ten ounces off her but the seeds are mad heavy one 1/8 turned to 1.3 after the seeds were remove its all for personal use so i didnt really care was just curious how good she would have been if it didnt get fertilized hopefully it was worth it . Invested about 10$ few months of patience and smoked for about a good month and a half cant beat that I miss the summer cant wait for those longer summer days to return



This was after a month of smoking had two more jars filled . Oh i forgot to mention she smelt like straight monkey nuts .

not bad bro...esp for 1 light!!

Thanks bro i hope it works

is there any special good combination of cfl lights to use ....example do i use two soft whites along with one daylight etc.

Eyup Mantool sum go 6500k 4 veg n 2700k 4 flower but ya can go all da way wiv 2700k itz jus about changin ur timin n nutes wen u iz redy 2 flower.

A lil confused but i'll figure it out good looking out

Eyup ma man da K iz da kelvins da light emitz 6500k is in da blue spec 4 veg da 2700k is in da red spec 4 flower.

How big are the lights physically i have limited room

Kop a load of dis.I call it, Da Crown O Budz

Pic1 my NL girl in veg note ow da LST iz trained round da lip o da pot

Pic2 1 18watt x 100 output wiv silver paper plate fitted as reflecta

Pic3 da setup light centerd in mid of crown, forground NL clone

Pic4 15 days in flower budin nicely

Will up da bulb 2 a 32watt x 150 output nxt wk den itz all down 2 ow i nute it

Yo thats sweet how do you train a plant to grow like that my bad I'm an indoor newbie and how old is that plant looking at the size of my plants how soon you think i should start the 12/12 light cycle .they are almost 2 months but i think they are still pretty small whats yur take

sup man how are they doing?

your gonna need way more light if your really trying to get some bud off that plant.

Right ma man da tech 2 da LST (low stress trainin) in my case is 2 grow ya plant up da side o ya pot. Top da plant wen u av 2 good internodal growths den i tie each o da new growths down 2 da lip o da pot in opposite directions,as da 2 tips grow keep tiein em down till u av gone full circle round da pot.It takes bout 4 week 2 dnce i av dun dis itz time 2 flower i centre da light n reflecta within da crown. I always cut out da central growth o da crown 2 make room 4 da light, wot i cut i clone so no waste.As da crown budz i cut all inner fan leaves off leavin all outa leaves 2 photosinth plant dis keeps max light 2 all da bud sites,any future inner fan leaves cut em so as day dont block out light 2 da buds.I start dis process wiv a 18watt x 100 equiv den bout 20 days later up da cfl 2 a 150 equiv 4 another 4-5 weeks.Da strain i use is Northern Lights its a tuff strain u can really b brutal wiv it durin LST an prunin.I have ad dis strain goin from its original mum 4 3years continually clonin as required an it as never let me down.Dis Crown o Budz is experimental at da mo itz doin real well i wll update u asap wiv pics.Basically itz a sorta vertical SOG.

P.S Any1 out dare remember itz an experiment u av 2 b brave an av a go at new ideas sum work sum dont but hey nowt ventured nowt gained.Av sum other ideas in da pipeline will keep postin as an wen.
