Hi guys, this is only my second time growing under then sun. But I love it, im just looking for advice, and help along my journey to harvest. So picture one is my Cinderella XX, but. I did start these girls indoors. As you may notice from the other pictures, it oddly enough seems to be "stretching" I did pinch each girl once. And only once. A lot of the leaf clusters only have 1 to 3 leaves, which concerns me. Next we have the Strawberry Cough. I only took the picture with one of them... because they're only that big... so... yea. (I just bought, and sprouted the seeds.) Also.... has anyone ever heard of putting whole bananas in their dirt? Ive been told to do it by several seasoned growers now...

Growing a cinderella 88 and strawberry cough myself this season. The strawberry cough can grow into a monster with that pot. Unfortunately it looks like your cinderellas have revegged that's probably where the stretching and single leaves is coming from. Did you lower your indoor light amounts slowly to match outdoor hours or just throw them out?

No! I didnt! I was worried that was the problem, should I have serious concerns about this? I personally have never used the fabric pots before, I just bought two different sets. Im looking forward to seeing the difference between these and plastic planters. Last year I did a Super Silver Haze in the planter box, I built. (The same one the cinderllas are in) and it was a monster. 8 feet tall, and eight feet wide on either side...

Yeah I run a few led t8 fixtures in my greenhouse until June 1st just to prevent reveg of my indoor starts. Fabric pots are great but they will require more frequent watering which means you can feed nutes or tea more often. only thing you can do with a revegged plant is wait it out. As long as it gets enough light the plant will eventually shoot out correct new foliage but it may take a long time depending on how much light its getting and/or stress. I took 2 cuttings off a plant that was flowering over the winter it took me 2 months to get one spitting out new 5 prong leaves and another 3 weeks for the other with 18h under 400w QBs.

Yeah, I just threw my plants outside too! They both started throwing pistils and stretched a bit, but they're starting to reveg now. Luckily I had them under 15 hrs light indoors because I knew they would be going out.
Never heard of bananas, you're probably better off with compost since that's what the bananas would be eventually anyway!

I wasnt so smart, I honestly didnt even think about it at first, wasnt until two weeks later that I went "I think I made a mistake..." yea im curious about the banana thing. I get the potassium point about it, but am unsure about putting a whole banana in my garden box.
New picture update tomorrow, stay tuned folks!

I bought a chernobyl clone today and have it under a timed light that will go off at ~3AM giving it a couple of hours of darkness
I'll do that for a couple of days then increase the hours of darkness by ~ 1hr. a night for a week

I wish clone sellers would put them on a 20/4 cycle to help facilitate us outdoor growers

Hey guys, back again. Im starting to see some new leaf growth on my Cinderlla XX, which is a relief, and since I put the Strawberry Cough in the mesh pots, with organic dirt, they're loving life.

Has anyone ever tried using CO2 in a green house? Im curious because I was given a 2L bottle that generates CO2 for up to two weeks, and wondering if I should use it now, or during flowering.

As I said in my first post, if anyone has any comments, or advice, I'd love to hear it.

I would think in flower. Its supposed to increase bud production and bud density from what im told

Should I be thinning my plant as well? The lowest branches look heavy as sin. So I was thinking about taking them off.... But I would assume that, that would stress it out just as much as them breaking off. Im worried if I do thin them, or lollipop them, it will screw up the reveg.

Also, Realizing now, I probably should have posted this in Grow Journal. Could someone clarify that for me lmfao....

I clean up the spindly innards and suckers underneath on mine. Helps with airflow to prevent mold and takes away hiding spots for bugs. When the plant is a good size I'll do like 3-5 shoots every 3-5 days. Nothing serious. Just watch how your plant reacts. If it slows down then give her more recovery time between stripping. I know some guys on here that strip the lower 1/3 of their plant at once with no adverse effects other than slow growth for a few days.

Hey guys, i have a question about the vinyl sheeting im using on my green house. Im starting to think that the amount of light it filters out isnt good for my plants, and if I took it off if it would help the vegetative growth of my plants. You can see it in the first set of pictures I uploaded. If anyone needs more than I will take more after work. Thanks for the input guys.

Im using the same stuff as a temporary until my 4 year white plastic comes in. Husky plastic sheeting from Wally World. Ive used it on 2 previous greenhouses with success. I think it diffuses the light. I know what you mean though. It looks shaded to an extent when you look in the greenhouse. But my understanding is that it spreads the light around the plant more evenly so the plants can absorb it better. Something like that.

Hey again guys (specifically FresnoFarmer), considering youve been a continuous commenter. I have a question about the pre buds im getting on my re veg. Because there is itty bitty buds starting to form, mainly on the older stems. None of the new branches have any. But should I be cutting them off for safety sake? Is this a concern for mold problems down the way?
