Alight im happy i have the flower room temp down to 78 and the humidity is 38% so thats good to me. every one agree i am debating on what to do now some of my clone are standing up now so i was thinking of waiting to see some roots then put them into the flower room.......but i still have two mothers one i believe is a female with the other im not sure....i do have 5 clones from the one i am not sure if its a girl or not and the other one i am kinda sure its a girl cause of the white ouline on the leaves i have its top as a clone........but the big thing is my veg/mother room is on during the day and off at 10pmto4am and my mother room is going to be on from 6pm to 6am so my question is i dont want to stress the plant out so its nomraly going to be going to dark time in 4 hours from when the flower room goes on so instead of going into dark time its going to stay on for another 8 hours untell it gets its first dark period in the flower room ....you get it hahaha i read it and even got confused ... but yea so lets say i put one of my mothers into the flower room tonight at 6pm then the flower room turns off at 6am tomorrow morning then that one mother will have had 26 hours of light for one day will that hurt it ??

I have read some people put their plants into 24 hours darkness before they go into flower. Don't know if that helps the plants kick into bloom or not. In any case I don't think you have any problems switching your times.

Rock on neighbors. I live in Santa Clarita now, but from Mt. Baldy to the Newport Peninsula were my stomping grounds... Any one of those bikes could be mine. I lost a few bikes in NB, especially on 4th of July weekends... lol

I cannot wait to take my bike up to Summit this season. I added a third chain ring (removed bash guard) so i can still ride there hopefully.

Hey Nugs! About your flowering timer. When I switched to flowering my plants had been in 24 hours of light 7 days week, so I just set a timer to turn it off for 12 hours, no big deal. After doing this, I read that many "old school" growers drop their plants into 24 hours darkness, just as Isthisnametaken stated, and I wish I would've done so because the whole 10 days I was waiting to see signs of flowering I was worried that I had made a terrible mistake by not giving 24 hours darkness. I don't know if it would've made a big difference in how long the plants took to show flowers/sex, but it took 10 days and I was stressed the whole time.

But take note: I have read that if I had given the 24 hours of darkness, I may have seen flowers/sex in less than 10 days and I may have seen more aggressive growth sooner. Plants, like most living things, handle stress and change much better when we are well rested and fresh. From all of the things I have read, I believe that this applies with our gurls also. A switch from vegging to flower is a big change for anyone, even a plant...

In the future i will give my gurls at least 24 hours of darkness before flowering and see if there is a difference. I will be growing the same strain on my next grow I believe.


Glad to hear that you have gotten the temps down. I'm in Socal and our weather has been in the mid 70's, so my temp has risen. Be prepared for that warm spell, if you ever have them...

I read that this type of plant can survive for a very long period with what we consider to be "plain" water. I will have to read up to see where you are in your grow (or you can update me) and hopefully I can lend some good advice.

Also, I recommend labeling EVERY cutting as soon as you cut it if you have more than one strain.

Only way to wake up... Sucks I got NO HERB WHATSOEVER... Everyone around here is dry. I know like 20 dealers... Nobody has anything. There was a big 500 lb bust in the city. Think most of it was heading towards us. People who do have herb are charging like 60 bucks for regular dank bud. nothing special. I ain't that rich.
