1st CFL Grow And Trim

i was wondering if anyone could give me some advice for my plants and help me get stronger plants btw the toilet paper is from cracked stems and i use it like a cast

I'm new to growing myself, so i can't really give you any advice, I like that third pic. Seems like you have a nice little pot plant growin.

Put a small fan blowing on it...maybe wait on the cracked one. Will strengthen and fatten the stems.

Plants look ok, but I think you burned them with a nute overdose.. Try pinching to thicken and harden the stems...

i did pintch and broke two stems

pinch softer I don't wanna see what you do with LST

yea ahaha do you think the stem will heal?
its swelling were the break

yeah man it will heal and it will swell into a ball.. don't worry the plant will be fine and sometime experienced growers pinch their plants harder to "break" the stems just to train them to grow in diferent directions. For this I use LST tho'... I only pinch for strength

how long you think it take to heal i love learning esspeciall when its about weed

I snapped the heads off my babies trying to bend it over. Thought I screwed them but they turned out to be great. I should take some pictures. Its amazing how she heals herself. Usually will bend back up after pinching them within 24 hours.

I should he ready to harvest in about 4-5 weeks. Planted the seeds in September.

in max a week they will be good as new.

carl you got some pics for us man? would love some bud porn. BTW you can check out my LST grow in my signature

how long do you let ur plants veg for and if its a broken stem i wonder how long it take to fix it

depends how long I let them. I'm actually thinking about going in flowering in a few days.. dunno will see If I do decide to order some nutes from the internet then I might wait a bit more.. but I'll see

i do the pinching thing to works great get more tops and buds and they take about a week to form not but no growth lost in between that i can tell.pinch and lean slowy and want break dont be scard to pinch ic ,want hurt a thing,this is from my experience others may disagree,looks good tho keep us up to date

herbal beast thats a nice grow you got going your lst and carl yea put some fat colas up cant wait for mine are bc big bud woooot

I don't think this is a good idea at all! these are still seedlings, why the hell are you hurting them? JUst lest them be... if anything transplant into bigger pots...Get yourself a good book, try the marijuana grow bible by Greg Green... Nowhere in that 500 page book does it mention doing this to your plants!

Does the OPer mind if I post? I thought that was high jacking the thread?

See. Smoking DOES make you paranoid

Here are a few I took 2-3 weeks ago. I will get new ones as soon as I have the house to myself for more than an hour

Those are 2 plants. Bubbalicuos from Nirvana. Went into the soil as seeds September 11 went under 2-150 watt HPS lights around October 30th? I have had them under 12/12 since about the second week.

The plant on the left side has an interesting stalk If you look down the center, you can see the bottom piece split into 4 where I broke it trying to bend it.

Not bad for some seeds I thought were toast. This turned into an experiment worth while for me.

Books books books, I've read so many books, and when I finally started growing I noticed how much I really DON'T know. Pinching is a GREAT way to improve your plant's growth. It's not the same to have a weak stem that barely holds your flower, or have a big thick stem where the nutes and everything travels efficiently and helps with the overall development of the plant.

Tell me this is wrong:

The plants are 30 days old from seed
