I am not sure how long this one has been growing for, it is just somme bagseed so I don't know the strain. It showed it's sex yesterday as clearly female. That is where I am going to start this journal because I have no idea what to do from here on out. I have to move her to a bigger pot, but is it safe to do it since she showed her sex? It is under 3 x 100w 2700k cfls and one 60w 6500k. Any and all advice is welcome.

Need LOTS OF HELP WITH HER PLEASE!! Here are the pics. I haven't updated this in a while, so there will be a lot of pics. As she has grown and gotten bigger, she has developed severe purple stems and the main stalk is looking purple as well. All advice is greatly appreciated. I need to know how to help her.

Well, so far the plant looks lovely, though it seems to me that the pots are a bit small for the size of plant she is. If you upgrade her to a larger pot and make sure is given regularly nutrients, plus plenty of beautiful light and fresh air, she will thrive to some beautiful smoke...Oh, and something I didn't see. I noticed the purple mentions about the leaves and stem and stock. What you have there is a strain of plant with purple genes...yum.

Have fun and Happy Growing.

what nutes are you using? what kind of soil mix? you need to tranplant to the final pol, a 3.9 to 5 gallon will be fine.

Hi there. No point in changing the pot at this stage, the roots will only grow during the veg phase. I think the pot is fine to be honest, plants not that big (looks real good though).

Your set up looks really good, clean and well thought out. The plant size for that room is near perfect. Id try and put 2, 4 or even 6 more lights in there. Stratigically placed like you have. Keep your temps in check though 28C or 82f is MAXIMUM. Good ventilation is great for getting more light than the room could normally handle. If you can raise your light count now it will greatly increase yield if fed the right amount of nuterients.

What nutes are you using and at what strength? Your leaf colour looks pretty good, close to a solid dark green. You could raise your feed just a litlle and it would be perfect. But you are safe now.

Do the plants always look a little droopy like that? I wonder if its over watering or a lack of light issue. Whats your watering cycle? More light will help in general though.

I dont know if you have a purple strain, the stems on mine have purple on them and I have AK47 and G13. Neither a purple strain.

Good luck

Your plants are looking good man. Almost all of my bag seeds come out heavy sativa looking and always turn purple in the stems, especially if I let it get cold in my room. What are your temps? What size pot are you in? It looks like the right size pot for your grow area, but you might want to try to switch your lights to 12/12 earlier on your next grow, and the plant will finish at the perfect size for that pot I think. It also looks like you are about to run into some height issues. If your plant is just now showing sex, you could still super crop or do some other lst for the next 2 weeks and it will really help keep the plant from outgrowing your little box and help spread your plant out so it is under all of those little bulbs. Your plant looks good so far though man, keep it up. O and when you are talking about your light bulbs, talk about the actual wattage, not the incandescent equivalent. Your 2700k bulbs are either 23 or 26 actual watts and the 6500k bulb is likely a 10w.
