Ok, got a question ... using stealth hydro's buble ponics. started on Jan 20.
4 Plants.
In the early stages, I snipped one plant (according to the cannibis bible) to get two coronas frow one plant. During the veg stage, I kept my four plants groomed to the same level (height). I switched to flower mode on or about feb 20. In the last two weeks, the one plant that I snipped to get double coronas has doubled in height and it is starting to (finally) produce buds as of today 3/26
So, I have three small plants with no buds at half the height, and one monster.
The bible says height doesn't necessarily mean good bud growth. And, the smaller plants could possibley do better.
Here is the big kicker!!!!
Im using a 45W CFL Grow bulb for both Veg and Flower (I played around with Mercury Vapor and Metal Hi bulbs during the flowering stage) so lets not make that an issue. The CFL did the best and I'm sticking to it.
The large plant is really close to the CFL and is budding.
What do I do with the smaller plants?
I have another CFL and my try to mount it above the lower plants.
Distance between the tall plant and the CFL: 2-5 inches
Distance between the 3 shorter plants: 6-10 inches
