Can i just say... i wouldn't worry too much about size, vegged my first for about 3 months as was about 2.5 feet tall before i flowered her, she stopped growing at 5 ft

My second grow were vegged for 3 weeks, and 1 of them is about 5.5 feet high n still growing

Its more important flowering them when you see preflowers, rather than worring about hight

Goodluck

so start flower at 7"? i want like 12 to 15" at the end maybe a lil bigger. Just want the most of this grow. As it being my second grow and the seeds are from some good dro i smoked 2 months back. Not feminized but i have 9 total so hopefully i get 8 females.lol I HOPE!!!!
yea man, you got it. just make sure you have enuf height for it to get 18-20 inches .. just in case.. i had some 2 week old plants i put in at like 4-5 inches that are now 21" but im pretty sure they are done stretching now on the other hand i have one that went in at 11" and is now 19" ... but i did tie her branches down a little for the first month of flowering

i had great luck with some dro bag seeds that i had saved the 4 that germd ended up all being female... made up for my regular bag seeds that only 3/13 were female :(

where did you hear that ?, you can veg a plant as long as you want, or just force flower when ever you want ....

sorry forget the preflower bit, im relating that to my first grow who showed sex before i flowered her, i mean its better to start flowering when shes more mature than force flowering em early, mine had alternating nodes and had shown sex

also mine did not show prefloweres before flowering just sex, i confused the two :?

yea.. it is better to do it like that.
i didnt do it like that for the first ones i planted ... i just forced em
but i got some mother plants that preflowered after 3-4wks in veg that i took some clones from and im now flowering the clones... im interested to see how these behave ;)

i thought the 2 are the same ? when you can sex them its usually going by 2 hairs and id call that a preflower too

Ahh i thought the preflowers were the tops of the budsites, you got me thinking now if my first grow was in veg mode and i could see hairs all over the top nodes what would of happened if id just vegged it, would the bud sites still of formed or would she have just stayed in veg state with white hairs as she was?

I topped a couple of them but in my great weed plant give-away, they went before i seen any growth, would you believe the 1 in the second grow is 7-8 week into veg and still growing shes breached my max height i got her tied all over, looks like some winding beanstalk lol

I do find it funny how ya can pull these bitches all over and they do as there told lol

So i harvest my last plant today, This one is part of my first grow ever.
Shes 14.3 Inches and i got about 70g's wet. What do u think it will be when its done? But it doesnt matter cause im happy ass fuck i even got this much my first time around. Any way here she is...




Here is my current grow i snapped it real quick. of plants #1-2 on week 5(total since i planted seed)and thats number 5 in the back and newbies to the left!Ill snap better photo later today.But im very very happy how thye look now, already have 7 leaves and growing more. I herd that if theres more than 7 thats a good breed. But thats what i herd, i dont care as long as the smoke is dank! Haha



question....How can u get rid of the taste of fert tasting buds? and is 7 days enough time to flush b4 harvest? And is it true u need to 24 darkness it prior to as well?

Dude that shit looks tasty. I hope my shit comes out like that lol.. 1 question.

Im using a 400hps and day 15 into flower. When do they start getting their color/size/smell?

Just impatient thats all.. +rep on the grow bro

btw: 14-20 g's. 70% is loss due to water weight

yo budski
for a proper flush you need to give it 2 weeks, 7 days is a lil short, flushing for longer period of time helps to remove the ferts in the buds. a good cure will help the taste of the bud itself as well, o and the 24 hr darkness isnt necessary but some say they notice more resin and some don't, it all depends on the strain. good luck man plants looking good. peace

depends on lighting,strain,temps, and nutes. trial and error man
Yea that was a hard question to answer in short term.
But how about this....When u start flower do u use the "flower" nutes right away or wait till first water in flower then switch? that doesnt that makes sense. question is ,lol
Can i start to use flower nutes right away or flush nutes b4 i start to use them in flower?
And for anybody using FF products. Do i keep the Big Bloom at the same level(tbs) or raise or lower in the first flower water? Cause raising it to me does not seem right at this point, but this is my first time using nutes all the way threw. Thats why im askin. Just dont want any probs
