i got impatient and put them into flowering. we'll see how it goes. since i dont have a carbon filter yet i expect to come home from work one day and have my place smell like dank!

No worries, they will start to stretch a lot and end up good sized... And I bet when you come back to that funky smell you'll have the biggest grin on your face =] Btw Don't be impatient during drying and curing phase! As you know that is a very crucial time for potent, high-quality smoke =D

hey thanks. so i had a question, when do i switch them to bigger pots? they seem to be growing just fine now but i tried pulling out out the other day from the pot and it looked root bound already after one fucking week. id like to transfer them into the bigger pots once i know the sex on them....how is it possible for some growers to get those 3ft tall plants in party cups?


anyway some more shots, i switched lighting to a 270 super argo hps.

Well they say to do a final transplant before flowering to reduce stress but I find that annoying since I would prefer not to waste soil and time on males... Reason being becuz of chances of hermie during the stress... However, I have never experienced any of that whatsoever and I transplant during flowering right after they show sex to get the females in the largest pots possible.. If I were you I would do the same. Just be nice and gentle when pulling your girls out and putting them in their new pots. Right after transplanting give them a good watering with no nutes and then next watering you can do a 1/4 dose of bloom nuting and you will be fine =D And you could easily get 3ft plants if you stayed in the party cups, just the plants would be lacking sooo much potential and I mean sooo much.. Everything is looking terrific man! Keep it up~!! ;]

damn these things grew a shitload overnight. is it always going to be like this or is it just because i switched the lighting?

 

[NewbGrower^.^]

The first 2 weeks of flowering will have quite a bit of stretching... As for switching the light from MH to HPS, that also causes stretching but you will be fine don't worry =]

looking good, plants are beautiful

so i came back and now ive got a new problem! i raised the light while on the business trip and flooded them with water and i come back and they stretched like a mofo. tall and thin, like they were looking for more light. another problem is my job is sending me back. what should i do?

 

[NewbGrower^.^]

They will stretch a lot during flowering no matter what really... Don't worry it will slow down in a week And more stretch will just give more area for buds to fill out so you're fine.... Any pics?

 

[del taco lover]

ill have pics on friday, im in new york now. but they're monsters now compared to the last pics.

 

[NewbGrower^.^]

Can't wait =] Hope your travels go smooth and well

got rid of a bunch of taller thinner females, and a few males and got it down to five plants. transplanted into final containers and used a 50FF/40 canna coco/10 perlite mix. going to feed them again tomorrow.

Superb work!~ The girls are coming along great Remember to rotate the plants every couple of days and if you can spread the pots out a little so light can get between them to reach the lower bud spots

You should definitly invest in some Aqua Globes since it looks like your work is sending you around a lot you can buy them at Walgreen. Those things are awesome they will keep your plants watered for a good time when ur gone, you could even put two in each pot.

 

[del taco lover]

thanks guys, i actually bought 6 of them but never used them. ive noticed if i mix the fox farms with canna coco and perlite it takes a long ass time for them to dry out. like i havent watered them since last sunday and they are still healthy and moist. i just fed them again tonight. im on week 7 of them ff feeding schedule so far
