ive been told that but a fee,
I am going for the most I dont want like 1 ounce I want like 5 :P

a guy said Id get maybe 1oz out of all 4 i have.
Idk if he was right or not.
if I flower at 24inched on 3 out of 4 of the plants.

What do you think I can get? I have about a 6.5foot tent to work with. if possible I wanna max out that tent.

General rule of thumb with regards to vertical height is that the plant will grow up to 3 times the height it was when it was placed in flowering (or begun flowering).
This can of course be different (and is different) for each grow.
Depending on a lot of variables, like;

Ventilation
Light
Feeding schedule (amount of nutes and how often)
Overwatering / under watering etc. etc.


If you just topped some of them, let them sit for some days before you flower them :)

They say 3 x but... it has never happened this way for me usually not more then 2x and that is the max they will grow after switching schedule. Indica/sativa would also be a variable im pretty sure.

First of all, I said up to 3x. That doesn't mean 3x only..
Secondly, I have seen many plants go 3x.

Yes it is, which is why I said "etc. etc." since I didn't want to spend an hour naming all the variables..

Thanks guys!!

i did flip the lights. they all have grown a ton! either it be the flush or the 12/12

I have a 23" plant now, 5 days into flower, 1 male.

Im worried about the 23" one, I scared it might not be able to hold its own weight, it kind of leans.

Dr High dont feel bad.. that guy has flipped his lid a couple times on me .. just another person who takes forums too seriously ...

Why would you bring that up again?

Not only bring it up, but twist the facts again why don't you?


You flipped on me because you read my post wrong and you've been sucking up to me ever since.
I don't really care about your opinion but the fact that you bring it up again as if I started it all is bullshit.

You even had to delete some of your posts because you didn't want it up there apparently.
I don't even want to give you the time of day.

I know the type of person you are, instigating little troll.

I know alot of these guys in person .. I am far from a troll.. Have a good one Koijn ...

Yw.
It's probably the 12/12 :)
Most plants have explosive growth in flowering if the conditions are right.

Do you have any way of setting up support beams or maybe a netting of some kind?

at walmart if you can get to one... or most hydro stores they sell little bamboo supports for 2-4 bucks ( 10 pack ) they work well... I put tomato cages over most of my plants now when they are still small so I can kinda weave em into it and use em to support once the bud weight packs on ... Some strains hold their own weight just fine.. but the branchy plants need some help . Good luck

PS i use zip ties or something similiar to secure the bigger stems to the bamboo sticks..

Tbh that is a quite a good solution, I also use pieces of string.
They are durable and it's easy to move around :)

The less clutter, the better, string is perfect for that.

Lakewood make sure to put your other girls up on buckets or whatever you can find to keep the canopy even with the taller girl.. It will help in the yield dept.

yooo been on a weird as fuck sleeping schedule hardly ever awake when the lights are on, blueberry headband is due next week.

oaksterdam and silver skunk and bagseed are about a week in, pretty big already but im depressed cause I didnt train the oaksterdam, so it's kindof just a plain plant.


anyways, I was wondering... how would I go about changing their schedule?
They are on at 6:30AM off at 6:30 PM... I want it completely the opposite... on at 6:30 PM off at 6:30 AM..

do I just leave the light off until 6:30PM and then restart their shit?
anywho, i will stay awake and get some pics when the lights come on.

I was wondering the same thing the other day, no matter what a switch that drastic in the lighting schedule is bound to stress 'em out, but I was thinking maybe give them 24 hours of darkness in between? I dunno, I'm interested to hear other peoples ideas for a low stress switch.

I just changed mine by letting them go longer in their night cycle. When my lights were off i stuck my head in and changed the timer to turn on and hour later and turn off an hour later no problems so far and i changed my lights a full 12 hours so now my light come on during the day and not at night. I figured they should have more dark them more light just my two cents.
