Ok, So I got 3 very short but very healthy looking plants. And when I say short I mean, 3 to 5 inches. Then I have 2 very tall plants. Average between the two about 9 inches. It's not the lights because I have rotated each plant daily. Each plant has got the same amount of water and nutes. These are from random bagseed. I don't know much about strains and growth rate of each strain. So can anyone identify what kind of strian from my pictures? Will the taller plants shadow my smaller plants once they begin to flower? Should I move the taller ones to another grow space for flowering? Please post some advice...........

maybe slightly space the plants so your tall onces dont crowd you big ones, but that might mean more lights. all in all your plants are looking good from what I saw! disabled vet = hero

edit: you could try to keep the lights really close to your taller looking plants so they dont get too much taller trying to reach the lights

The MG soil is outperforming the Sta-Green soil. I stopped watering with ice cubes. Using rain water ONLY! Very impressed with the rate of growth. Tallest plant is 14 inches and the smallest is 7. I've noticed 2 of the plants look the same, with another 2 looking similar, and one odd ball. I guess that's what you get from bagseed. Using eleven 26w 2700k lights. For a total of around 28,000 lumens. Going to add 6 more on Friday. I think that will be enough light, any opinions?

hell yea sounds good bro. plants looking wonderful. Instead of going with some more of the smaller ones. If u can get some money together they sell some 68watts 2700k(300 watt incandescent). You get about 5000 lumens with each bulb. They run about 13 bucks at Homedepot. There not in the same section however there with the MH and hps bulbs in the contractor section. At my homedepot there on the same isle but on the end of it.

Just nuted with Green Light Super Bloom 12-55-6. Anyone have any experience with this product? Guy at feed store said it was very good, so I took his recommendation. Hope it works out for me.

Ok thought I would update since I have finally discovered their sex. I hope you guys are still following this grow. Out of 5, I clearly identified 4 females. WOW! Better than I ever hoped for. I was just hopeing for just 2. Smell is not an issue for my grow. I live partly secluded. Seems like they liked the Green Light Super Bloom 12-55-6. I also gave the girls (names to come) a little haircut. I trimmed most of the lower fan leaves. Useless Growth = Poor Light Penetration. Gave them a little extra water tonight for the shock. One quick analysis, the Miracle Grow potting soil is in a slight lead with the Sta-Green potting soil, also the Sta-Green seems to hold moisture poorly. Here are some up to date pics.
