I think they look great! Nice and healthy and size appropriate for 3 weeks. And limited stretch even with a florescent. Keep it up.

thanks picasso i have another question about the stretching. to get them bushier do you keep the light close? i saw another forum that they dint topp the plant or any thing but it grew horizontal and it looked like they had 15-20 plants coming from just one. is that done by bushing them out by keeping the light close?? or is it from LST?

i was wondering because i have two that have been flow. for 7 weeks and im starting to think the yeild will not support me for more then 2 weeks. im thinkin around 1 somewhere and im sad.lol. i have the space and would like to make it worth it in the end. just thinking outloud.

A really close/HID light will keep the nodes closer together and the plant won't stretch, but she will still have one dominant cola that shoots up.

Those plants you saw definitely had something done to them.

You need to read up on LST and possibly Fimming as well. Just fancy names for tying the plant down and fimming is making a single snip to create four main tops instead of one. You may want to study SOG for your next grow. I would definitely reccomend fimming for you now. Here is a great pic:

As late as I can in veg, but still give them time to recover from the fimming before Flower. So about one week before I go to Flower is when I do it. Not entirely sure if that is the best or not, just when I do it. You may want to ask around.

Yeah that sounds about right mate!!! They lookin pretty healthy too... Its totally up to you how much veg you give them and if they start to get to close to the lights later then you can always tie them down...thats how i roll.

tripple your bloom formula from what the bottle tells you and fucking hammer the buggers feed them all day every day for a week then give them no food for 2 or 3 days then give them water for a few days and repeat

i was at a farmers today and he had 20 plants under 2 400w hps he feeds them
canna a a & b to the bottle
triples the boost
doubles the pk man he is looking at making at least 40 ounces off his hash plant clones there a week over harvest time and the buds have burst open and are budding over the buds and there as tight as a brick

and yeh i would look into getting a filter there not to expensive or you can get a bowl ov water and vinegar and sit it in the heat and the vinegar masks the smell of everything also used tobacco butts and water stinks but kills the smell and also deters white and black fly

thanks for the info man, so are you saying tripple the recommended nutes for a week and then not water for a couple and then give them straight water for a couple days and then start all over again with hitting them hard with the nuts?

any way i picked open sesame another FF product so i will be using that in combination with FF Grow big, and big bloom which i will add next week. i found a link to the Fox farm feeding schedule(http://www.foxfarmfertilizer.com/soilfeed.pdf) which i think is what i will stick too. plants are coming along a lot faster and healthier then my last which makes me happy. ill try and get some pics up tonight
