I'm still having a hard time telling, but I swear I see pistils instead of balls.

They've stretched more than I thought so far. Hopefully they slow down. Lol

Thanks boss , learning from the family here , reading over and over again and again trying to not the same mistake twice, lol organic sip growing just kills it , trying to get a soil mix that will do three-four runs with just a bit of top dressing.

How big are your containers? I doubt I’d be able to get more than 1 in my lil city pickers lol. Maybe this is the year I build some bigger mammajammas.

Got a little something in the lineup myself. Some F3s just getting near the end of the stretch. Well, I think. Two of these are going landrace sativa!

Been on 12/12 from seed, and small enough they may be water-only. But like kayaganja, may topdress soon to be safe.

Good luck with the landrace sativa. You better hope they don't get big. Lol

When you start 12/12 from seed, what dli do you start with?

Am running 20g containers, and I got 150g which am not running right now

I don't know. I run a 300W hood at 25% and 24". I bump it up to maybe 40% as they near transplant. It's a 2x2 tent, so it's pretty intense light.

But 12/12 still restricts growth in my setup. I have some little ones going at 18/6 which are growing much more aggressively.

 

[Hollatchaboy]

Man these things are stretching like crazy. It must be the ssh. The way the stayed short in veg, i thought for sure they'd stay squat.

Anyways, this is by far the longest I've gone with not 1 yellow leaf. Keeping my fingers crossed.

 

[Hollatchaboy]

Ok guys, I got three old, lower leaves, that got something going on, that I've not seen before, so i have no experience with it.



Im not sure if it's something I need to worry about. I'm pretty sure it's not insects. My best guess is P deficiency, but again, I'm really not confident of that.

There is a chance that I got a lil recharge dripped on those leaves. They don't really seem to like that much. Lol

 

[LewberDewber852]

Does your fan make them parts of the leafs tickle each other and cause a abrasion? Almost look like there could be rub in a few of those spots but honestly throwing a dart with an observation on a couple pics. Or maybe u just damaged the leafs in those spots pulling back your covers?..?

I honestly wouldn’t worry tho since they low bc it is kinda dense under there. If the rust spots start popping up more places then I’d start to chase my tail.

Idk if it’s ever as simple as just need more P bc it’s not in my brain

Ok agreed. It could be any one of the situations you mentioned. I'm Just trying to stay on top of things, before they can start going sideways. I'm gonna defoliate after stretch anyways, though I hate taking leaves that are green, just in case the plants need reserves.

Just grow plants like me Holla', then you'll have more yellow, damaged leaves to remove, without concern! lol

Yea I did that for a while. Lol
Im really trying to get this one to the end, without any, or at least, considerably less.

Lol I get you remember not to love them too much remove those three four leaves and see if any more come , meanwhile just do your tings like always do , plants are looking great ,

 

[LewberDewber852]

I chopped this girl. The other one needs another week.
The below pic is what I took for tester a week ago and this little bit weighs almost 1/2oz dry. Shit is sticky and dense but again the plant needs another week.
