Looks nice. If you stare at your plants for hours on end like I did :eyesmoke:, you can start to see where you need to reposition to take advantage of light. The 250w won't penetrate very far into the canopy at all, so try to level out your tops as much as possible and lower your reflector as low as you can get it. Mine is about 5-8 inches above my canopy, so you can get it pretty close as long as you have fan blowing across.

This was the fun part of my grow days 12-35, with flowers building mass almost daily. Enjoy!

yeah I used yarn and drilled holes on the lip of my pot and tied some branches lower to allow more canopy light penetration the plant loved it. Idk m biggest one looks like it has more then 4 colas is that possibile?

yeah i plant watch probably an un-healthy amount for any human being haha i find the plants lean into the light, so after a day or two i rotate them 180 degrees so theyre leaning away from the light if you get me, then the light really penetrates until they lean back in then i do it again, i also switch their positions every day :)

Yeah things where rough in the beginning for me because I had no nutes so like 2 weeks I was corrrecting the problem haha.
My next grow is going to be great. I just cant wait to see these babys when they are done. I get it now growing is addictive.

Probably like the first week or two which I heard some people dont even use nutes till the 2-3 week. But I'm using miracle grow.
My grow would probably be bigger if I didnt have the battle with the nutes and the nutes in the soil fucking around. took me a good 2 weeks to figure it out and now Im on a roll the plants are growing bigger and bogger everyday since I put them in flower it was almost like they were waiting for the 12/12. I had to get rid of that DIY box I had and hang the light lol

yeah for my next grow I'm probably going to pick up some nice organic nutes or I might just go with this Kit HTG Supply is very good and they have a warehouse in my state so I should have fast shipping.

This is a great deal IMO http://htgsupply.com/Product-The-Dirty-Dozen-Organic-Starter-Pack.asp#

Your plants are looking good. Got some good genes right there. I can't wait to start from seeds I order because then at least I'll know when the flowering is done and have advice from people who grew the same strain and etc.
The problem I have now is I think I have some sativas and indicas or hybrids lol and it was all bagseed from some pretty good mids(which i rarely smoke only when funds are low haha) and maybe like 1 from a headies bag.

But see now its all a guessing game with the flowering I mean I could use the magnify glass and harvest when trichomes are milky or ready. and just pull whatever ones reach that first and continue to let the other ones grow. Then also idk when I should flush because IDK when they will be done lol. See my problem

hey guys was gonna update but not much point, im a little dissapointed with the plants progress, i did a small bit of lollipopping today to concentrate growth at the tops instead of popcorn that will barely get light anyway, they seem to be flowering extremely slow, dont get me wrong theyve stretched at an unbelievable rate but other than that and a few hairs coming from the budsites its been nothing. theyve been flowering now 18 days , ive read some plants stretch for 3 weeks before putting on any bud mass so im hoping this is the case here, also cloud 9 has an 11 week flowering period so mb im worried over nothing.

Well its my first grow on my own. I've helped buddies with outdoor grows in VT haha and other people.

But for my own this was low budget at first because I didnt know if I was going to go through with actually growing. I gotta post a picture update on my journal. all 4 are females(damn I got lucky) and they are growing so fast already.

But yeah next grow no bagseed def seeds. Might do some sour d, purple urkel, and maybe some bigbud for commercial reasons lol
