Well my plant is doing pretty good. It is growing at a strong steady pace now. The PH is stable now due to some Aquarium Water Balance thing for fish and plants that has PH buffers to stop dramatic change in pH. The plant is starting to grow its first true set of leaves that actually look like marijuana leaves and is on its 2nd node now. Plant is about 2-3 inches tall with big broad leaves :). The leaves are a bit droopy...any reason why? I am using hydroponics by the way. I got 2, 90 LED blue bulb 6w on the plant and a 15 watt full spectrum fluerecent light on 1 plant so I think I got enough lighting for 1 plant.

My Chronic Plant is 24 days old and is growing like a champ. It has 3 nodes now and is growing new leaves each day. I have 1 question, my plant isn't tall at all. My plant is like 3-4 inches tall only but it has ALOT of leaves and 3 nodes already. Is this normal? I seen plants at 24 days old and it looks like a fucking tree already. I have the lights super close to the plant...should I put them back a couple of inches so the plant can reach for the light and get bigger? The lights are about 2-3 inches from the plant. I also have the lights kinda on the side of the plant at an angle so that all the leaves can get some light. Should I put the lights DIRECTLY on top of the plant or keep it at an angle like I have now? Also, when should I go to flower mode? Veg for another 2 weeks then flower?

Lights:
2; 90 bulb blue LED and 1; 15watt full spectrum floro tube.

Plant is 1 month old and I started the flowering cycle. My time is 7:30 AM to 7:30 PM. I changed the nutes to Dyna-gro bloom and I am using 2; 6 Watt 90 LED Red bulbs and a 15 watt Full spectrum floro tube. Will I need more lights for flowering or am I fine? Remember I am growing 1 plant only. I will post pics of my grow soon...The plant is about 6 inches tall with ALOT of leaves. One problem I am worrying about is the weak stem. The stem has a weak spot and it is only flimsy on that spot, but other than that, the stem is thick as a pencil. Some leaves have a little burn on them, but most are in good shape and healthy. I am just waiting for the stem to heal its weak spot. How long will it take for the plant to repair its stem?
