If your 12/12 from seed you should try autoflowers next time round get feminised so your not wasting effort. I grew big Buddhas critical mass under a 350w cfl last grow it's a nice smoke. Just starting a big Buddha cheese grow check out my grow journal

hey rob, yeah loads of people have told me that. i wasnt originally planning on doing 12/12 but decided too because of limited space.
i have heard good things about critical mass, i think i might try that if this one turns out nicely.

I have noticed that one plant is quite a bit bigger than the other, could this cause problems?
the tops of these beauties are looking so nice, cant wait to smoke these in a few months!

You would like a even canopy at the tops of your plant, set the short ones on something to even it out more. From what I have noticed about auto flowers is they like 18/6 or 24/0 better than 12/12 from seed, that's why I didn't try them. One of the bigger reasons to do 12/12 from seed is your can sex your plants in 3 to 5 weeks. I use reg. seed, less hermi problems, plus I am given reg. seed by friends. The plant are coming along nicely.:bigjoint:
Are you spraying something on your leaves? The last has whitish coating on them, I see your spray bottles, so is probably nothing.:weed:...rw

yeah I'm spraying them with water once or twice a day to keep up the humidity.
I'm also trying a foliar spray with a free sample that I got when I bought the new light. I have used a really diluted solution and I have sprayed them twice with it and have noticed no negative affects yet.

All seems to be well, I am growing suspicious I'm sure there is a problem lurking somewhere... hahahaha

Molasses.jpg yeah thats right its fair trade, gotta do my bit. hahah
 
Hey if you wanna even your canopy out just tie the tallest one over from the top my last grow I had one plant at about 5 ft the other 2 at about 3 I just snapped the stem over and supported it from above. It didn't harm the plant and the nodes all grew up toward the light within a couple of days

Day 55..

plants are looking good, I'm noticing that they are starting to frost a tiny bit. Jane is swelling up nicely and I'm definitely noticing a slight aroma.

I'm so excited, they look better and better everyday! enjoy the pictures.

Day 58 from seed.

I might have a problem, but it still could be nothing. I have noticed some discolouration of the lowest leaves have been turning yellow and drying up, I didn't worry about it at first cos the plant looks healthy. But now another leaf has started to turn..

What could this be? and should I be worried, or is it just a normal thing that happens?
But other than this I think the plants are still looking ace, I can see the trichs forming and they smell dank when I rub them. Here is a group shot.

That happen a lot to my plants. Are put a little veg nutes on it still because they still need nitrogen at that age. I make sure of the nitrogen but it still happens,so. Those are starting to take off. Not long now....rw
