250 Watts of Fluorescent Wonder

finally, some close up pics of a plant that aren't blurry

LOL. Nice name noob.

So I was taking a look at my saps today and I noticed the stem to my tallest one was starting to harden up so I went ahead and started my LST since it was tall enough. Here's another non blurry shot for you mcpwnsauce. :]

love the little one there I can't wait to see what's to come..I'm just starting to mess with lst as you know and am excited to see what you can do with this one

plant looks good! but untie her, wait to tie her down until she is bigger. you dont want the leaves sitting on the soil like that, they will burn. next time you germinate a seed use the good ole paper towel method it always works well. good luck with your grow!! im subd. check out my grow in my sig, i just cut down last night.

Lol actually I get a bit worried with mine so I actually on top of the fan blow on them a few times a day just a little has worked for me also when the start getting bigger I shake them at the base for a few seconds this really helps strengthen..

i also give them a little shakin', but i do it when i water them that way the soil stays even across the pot.

That is a good idea I just do it more often I guess my first round was weak till I learned this...as far as paper towel method I just can't do that one lol I space I find straight in soil works for me as if I forget about them I don't loose seed like I have with the other method

Thank you.

Update time. I switched the plants around so they get different lighting. So I named my first sprout Ruth and the other Esther. I started LST on both now.

Doesn't it look like there's some slight yellow striping on my leaves? I fed them yesterday with some high N stuff. Hope that helps.

They are looking very good!! Yellowing doesn't look like an issue at all at this point what strength are you feeding them??

OK cool. I gave them a 1/2 strength feeding of the high N stuff and 1/4 strength of the Big Bloom since I had already fed them that last week. They are starting to take off!

Glad to hear they are doing so good! Seems like you are doing just fine reading your plants..my lst girl is starting to take off as well thinking about making her my avatar I dropped her and she perked up lmao

its looking good. are you still vegging? if so why are you using bloom nutrients right now?

Yeah still vegging. I'm using just cause it says "safe enough to use during all stages of growth on the bottle." Plus on FoxFarm's feeding schedule it has it for vegging and flower. But now that you mention it I think I might rather just save it for flowering. Not really sure what it does for vegging so I dunno. Someone said it relieves stress but maybe a little bit of stress might do them some good right rene?

Lmao well giblet stress isn't always a bad thing certain kinds can increase growth but I would go dropping a table and 10plants on your girls like I did! Maybe you should hold off on the one nute for now or you can do an experiment with one on the bloom one off just and idea

lol. Yeah I think I will stop with the bloom nutes. They probably just want me to run out faster so I can buy more of it anyway heh.

More LST.

I tried with Esther but she still needs to grow her stem just a little bit more.
