Yeah. I know about all that. If anything I'll flush the soil or let it use up all the nutes. But the soil I have right now has very minimal if not no nutes at all. I'll need to add the FF nutes to that plant and then my pineapple express will get the new soil.
Thanks for the input man.
I'm hoping I get my first check from the smoke shop tomorrow. I'm almost out of green lol.

lookin good dude. i say the big one is indica, should b some nice smoke. i started up again btw 
started 8 autogrowers on the 10th. 2 Snowryder, 3 M.I.5 (My Indoor 5), 1 Himalaya blue diesel, and 2 of my my own creation> "M.I.5 X Snowryder". The "M.I.5 X Snowryder" are doing the best. My Himalaya blue diesel is looking a little od, its growing 3 leaves each time, hopefully that corrects itself. One of my snowryders was held back due to the seed shell not shedding so its far behind but its coming along still. The rest are doing just fine. Im excited, all strains finish between 8-10 weeks, wish me luck.

Fuckin A man. I can't wait to get me a 150w HPS from work. Then they'll do so well.lookin good dude. i say the big one is indica, should b some nice smoke. i started up again btw
Good luck with all yours.
Oh and hope was some good smoke. Still have some in a jar. It was about 10 on the top cola and i have 4 or so in the others. Real heavy high. Not bad at all. My plants are what's gonna be the nice plants. I can already tell this flowering is gonna be amazing.

My first grow was similar to yours. I had like, 80 watts of CFL on one plant. Gave me about 15 grams of the fluffiest shit because it definitely wasn't enough light. Switching to HPS was the best thing ever. You'll notice a drastic increase in your yield. Plus, you get more lumens per watt.
Keep up the good work!

ya for sure man, upgrades, upgrades, upgrades lol. im using my 45 watt LED panel right now. I dont think i will be flowering with it. i might have to set up my 400watt, bin trying to stay away from that tho, dont want a big grow. Might put them outside on day 21, hard to say if ill be able to put them all out tho, ill have to figure some things out. And nice smoke report, decent weight considering, i imagined hope with more of a fruity light smoke, but u say its heavy so maybe there is a bit of haze in the genetics. congrats on ur progress so far man

Yeah man I got stoned quick straight to the dome with a friend. The one who gave her to me.
My new babies are starting to grow nicely in their new home and I'm hoping the mystery one turns out to be female but I'm a few weeks from that. For a fact though I have 1 Roadrunner#2 and 1 Pineapple Express and then the mystery seed.
Thanks man I might have to wait for my next check for the 150w but I'll just have to see how well I can budget everything.
You start a thread for your new grow yet?

know what u should be doing dude, Low Stress Training, start tieing her down, and take a few clones from the bottom. Spread her out then ull have a nice even canopy for the most part and will get more light to all the bud sites, if u can id start doing a bunch of little clones flowering right from rooting, get a sea of green going for down the road. Just saying, then u can optimize ur new light

If I had the room and the setup for clones I would. The two colas are pretty freaking big so I don't know how well that'd work out. On my next ones I'll start working on LST this was my first experiment with topping and I trimmed about 4 inches off the top because it's so big and its getting bushy. The gap from soil to bottom branch is so small it's a hell of a lot better than "hopes" I'm hoping to get at least an ounce off of this one what do you think?

Turned out to be a mostly male hermie. What a bitch. Oh well though. Good thing I have 3 others that I can put under the hps instead.
I'll put together some more pictures soon, just wanted to give the bad news.
Some good news though, since it has some thc in it, I gave it to my buddy to trim. We're going to make some hash oil out of it. Not a total loss.
My pineapple express is more than likely an autoflower. Waiting to see how it reacts to the new light and better conditions.
10 til 4:20 here. Get your lighters ready!

Here's picture of the pineapple express. It's under a 150w HPS right now and I'm getting nutrients on Wednesday
They are kind of spaced out. It took a little bit to take off so I slacked off on the pictures, plus I had been working quite a bit. It's seeming to be autoflowering, waiting for some conformation but I'm about to switch the light cycles to 18/6.
Still slightly bummed with the male/hermie it had a few female branches. Hash oil will be made this week tho!
