More pictures, 10 weeks since I got them.
Recovering from some heat stress and overwatering.
The setup above is my new tweaked setup my previous setup had some heat issues so that’s why plants experienced some heat stress, and the overwatering was bad judgment on my part.

Picture 1 and 2 are from heat stress and overwatering.
Picture 3 is my plants sitting while I tweak the room.

Pictures 4 and on are them in their new improved home. They seem to have recovered from heat stress and overwatering pretty, perhaps because i tripped out was so quick to find and deal with the problem

From OG experts I have found out that it will stretch ~60% once turned. I am not sure about the gold, I think may be a couple more day to start flowering.

what do you fellows think?

Thank you so much guys.

This is my first time growing. I have never ever grown anything in my entire life.
I have some chemistry background which has helped me grasp the basics of growing.

I hope you get a hold of some good Cali strains. When you talk about US exotic strains, you mean exotic Cali Strains?

I am curious are there any clone only UK strains?

Man I feel lucky that all the strain u really want to smoke are very easily available.

After my health gets better and I have a few grows under my belt I am gonna make a trip to Amsterdam. Never been to Europe before.

Picture Update.

Half the plants are vegging under a 600w HPS and the other half are under 600w MH.
I wanted to this side by side to see how much difference MH vs HPS makes for vegging.
So far the plants under the MH look better to me, more lush.

Don and Snow i am really nervous about turning them, do they look healthy enough to go in flowering?

looking perfectly healthy man. They look totally ready for flowering to me. It's all about getting the basics right and you seem to have that down already. Great start for your first grow. 2 x 600W as well.....NICE! :mrgreen:

Thanks mate tonight they will sleep for 36 hours and then turning back. I will post some flowering pictures in a couple of days.
Very impatient and anxious to see my flowers.

Any guesses on the yield. I have no clue what to expect. Anything around 10 oz would be excellent. Do you guys think I could achieve that.

Looking great so far Bender. Gettin close to flower time it looks like. Probably more dependant on how big you want them getting.

Great job with that lollipopping too! Gonna make for some great big ole colas full of bud.

Thanks for swinging by butters. I really hope I can get big colas. At least from the Himalayan Gold I am expecting some good sized colas.

I have at least 3 times the current canopy height available above the light. As other experts have suggested I will move to flowering tonight.

Cannot wait to see some buts forming. :weed: cannot freakin wait :wall:

flip dem bitches !!!! yeah they're good n healthy man, once you know how much a strain will stretch you can think about vegging longer to up your yield but in numbers you'll not miss it.

just in time for the new year!

I found my own impatience was one of the hardest things to overcome as a new grower. I've been doing it nearly three years now and I still find it hard to wait. But I'm getting better at it.

v hard to say about yield at this stage man....try not to think about it too much though. Just concentrate on keeping your plants healthy and giving what they need and the big yields will come! :)

36 hours withouth looking at your plants....will you be ok mate? ;) LOL
