Moving in two months, need to make grow shorter

I just found out I'm moving in two months on August 1st which means I'm forced to cut my grow much shorter than I would have liked. Today my plants are only 11 days old. How would you all suggest maximizing my yeild in such a short time? Should I start flowering now and be happy with the small amount I get or wait another week or so and harvest early? How would you all handle this situation if you knew you had to be finished by August 1st?

The strain is NL#5 X Big Bud. Here's a pic but sorry for crappy quality. All I have is a webcam.

Clone em like i did.... veg and clone.. throw away old plant... check before if its a female.. revert back to veg then last 2 weeks of juli you'll have to take clones..

stick em in root gel.... 3 day's later you got roots..... growth stunts for about 7 day's...

August new place.. you'r plants are starting to grow again.. and you'r ready with even more than just 1 plant...

:D

Thats a really great idea man. Sadly its not something I can do. :( I'm going to be traveling by car across a state line and I'm not willing to risk having clones on me while driving. Next thing I'll know ill get pulled over for an improper lane change and suddenly I'm the "largest pot grower the cops have ever seen." I can see it now:

Breaking news: A routine traffic stop turns into a major pot trafficking arrest. The suspect had 3 "plants" estimated at a value of $50,000.

I've decided to just flower it and see what happens. I'll expect nothing more than a gram and if its anything more, nice. :neutral:

ok ;) guess there's no point in even moving your plants dude......

Just buy some seeds 1 week before you move in to new place.. ship all stuff there 1 week before ya move ;)

Then when you get there.... You'll be GOD's GIFT to marijuana ^^

hahah ;) you know what i mean...

Just send the stuff over there.. buy some seeds to the new adress ;)

you'r done.. no stress just fun moving cuz ya know, hey i've got some work to do when i get there :) and not work, i mean fun work ;)

hey dude so you say ur moving 1st august? so that gives u around 60 days right? il be honest theres no point keeping it going as thats just not enough time, i vegged for 4 weeks, and flowered for 10 weeks, so i would say either find another place, a friends house or something or stop now since its early and start again when you move

I could be wrong but I have a few things going for me from what I've read. There are some strains that do good with no veg, 12/12 from seed. (including my strain, nl#5 x big bud) This strain also is an early flowerer at 45-55 days. Instead of doing it straight from seed I started 12/12 at 11 days. In just two days of 12/12 I've seen significant growth and its starting to get a bit bushy. Assuming its female my understanding is I may have a chance of seeing something. The likelihood of it being a lot or having a chance to mature is slim to none however. Of course I could be wrong. It looks like at this point either let it grow and see what happens or kill it. I have nothing to loose to just let it grow so screw it. I'll be sure to let you all know what I get. I'm a new grower so worst case scenario it fails and I learn something valuable in the process. I sure do seem to be cursed by the weed gods right now though. :evil:

I've decided to just kill it after all. It's just not feasible to let it live. It'll most likely not give me much of anything and thanks to the unexpected move there will be tons of people inside my home uninstalling stuff, movers looking over the upcoming job, etc. :?

I guess I've got to wait a few months and start again in the next house. Did I mention I hate unexpected moves? :evil:

Exactly. On the plus side the new house has about 50 miles of wooded area behind it. It may actually be a great area to not only grow indoors, but also outdoors next season as long as I bring a GPS. Ive learned a ton (I started outdoors and then moved indoors here and have probably spent a total of a 100+ hours reading this site, reading books, etc.. :shock:) I finally had everything perfect in the grow room and this happens. Oh well.. I guess the grow room design is part of the fun of it all. Although I haven't seen the inside of the house it is MUCH bigger than my current house so maybe I'll luck out and have a really badass grow area compared to what I previously had. Anyhow good luck everyone with all your grows and thanks for the help. Hopefully when august rolls around I'll be back on here showing off some good plants. :-D
