NORTHERN LIGHTS Day 26 of Flower

[IslandDelight]

My two fem Northern Lights grown from seed from nirvana. Using a basic mix of FFOF and cocoa, well water, and GH flora bloom and flora micro.
Vegged for 6 weeks under 5 cfls 24hr cycle and now 12/12 under a 400w hps
My humidity is under 30% and daytime temps don't exceed 78-79f.
The one was topped about 2 or 3 weeks into veg and I lst'd the other just to experiment with them.
First grow, excited and happy with how things are going. Little tight on space so next time I think I'll just go with one but let me know what you think.

THANKS brothers and sisters for taking the time to read and check out my plants!
Happy growing

 

[IslandDelight]

Sorry they are all sideways...I would somehow manage to do that

 

[learningQuick]

Beautiful, man! Looks good for a first grow. I'm running into the same problem with space too. To have more small ones, or less big ones?!
Keep it up, and happy growing!

Got a NL pheno from Nirvana that i keep going as its easy to grow and a hit hard smoke , thought i'd share , its in week 3 of 12/12...she's hard as hell can take anything from over nute to cold temps , very resistant.

 

[IslandDelight]

Yes, they are very resistant. my temps are beginning to vary from 91f (lights on) - 64f (off) at highs and lows if I get lazy and don't pay attention but never and issue.

I am now at day 53. I have flushed both and have stopped adding nutes. They really are more like shrubs..

Veery nice clonex. Responds so well to topping. The difference between my 2 is very noticeable.

Thanks for all the compliments Too guys!

 

[Clonex]

cutting soon , flushing for 1 week...short light cycles 9 hours...

 

[La Brigada]

damn man those look awesome, try to get some closeups..

 

[Clonex]

Double click on them ? or you mean closer ?

 

[dr2brains]

Looks GOOD!
Rotate your pics.

 

[IslandDelight]

Yeah clonex, looking pretty man. I'd say my girls are in their last week too.
How did she respond to the 9 hours of light? Is it truly benificial for production, or is it just a nice energy saver with no side effects?

 

[IslandDelight]

These are from day 40

They are only in 3.8 gal containers and I really think they'd have been much larger had I provided larger grow area. They were in veg for nearly 6 weeks as I was getting a larger grow area setup (still not nearly big enough) but very excited to see this harvest. I'll get some more pics up soon.

Well , some ppl give their plants 48hrs dark before chop , as to panic the plant into extra resin production , i do it gradually over a week , and yes it saves power with no side affects , you do notice the buds tightening up more , i can vouch for this..... , your plants look stocky and juicy man , well done. i wish you would rotate before inserting online , my neck is stretching like ET

 

[IslandDelight]

I was intending on a 48 hr dark period at the end of this cycle.
Sorry about the sideways photos, I am not too computer savvy (actually was very proud the day I even posted a photo on this forum)

I am really happy with the way they are turning out. Here are some photos just taken

 

[IslandDelight]

Ya they look grate nice training.

thanks bro, I spent a lot of time working them. It's been a lot of fun

Thanks man!!
as for plants big or small: Depends why you're growing I'd say. I'm really about growing the biggest, bulbous buds I can manage. So for me, I say big plants, just less of em. I also always intend on fem seeds, which allows me to grow a plant or 2 with good certainty that I won't be wasting my time.
So many advantages (and disadvantages) to both to help you choose what's best for you.

going to switch mine to a 9/hr and see how they take it. Also think I'm going to flush one last time tomorrow.
