looking very good TMIL KEEP IT UP!!! 1st time seems a lil uneasy even though this is my 2nd attempt.. but my 1st time i was not patient at all xD ended up killing my plant with kindness lmaooooGood Afternoon
Recap ...
This one sprouted on 12-10-13. My nutes are this. I have never used it before, but got a really good deal on it @ local hydro. In fact ... I have not used nutes at all beforeMy medium consists of this and Sta-Green All Purpose Potting Mix with Fertilizer. (All I could get at the time. not that i am disappointed
Im using 4 cfl 27w 6500k for veg.
This growing stuff is the bomb. Fun as hell and keeps my anxiety down. lol (not kidding tho)
I gave my 1st nutes 14 days ago. 2 waterings then a 2nd round of nutes. (2 days ago) I used a 1/4 of what the bag says. I also noticed that the 1st one was a bit hot so on the second I used the same amount. All looks good.
I started lst'ing and "super cropping" I think thats what they call what i am doing (pinching and bending) early I guess ... 10 days or a week old. Its working tho. On one of the pix I put a red line to show how the mainline is running. The plan was/is to run it somewhat around the pot while elevating as it grows to keep the new growth the same as the older. Trying to have a even canopy. we will see. Next time I think i will start at the side and go straight across the pot and see where it goes from there.
I have NOT fim or topped at all. I still have no idea on sex so I am not sure if I will grow it out even if male (for experience) or keep dropping beans until i get a fem. At that rate though, I will never get some quality smoke. Thats what i am shooting for btw, quality smoke
If it turns out to be fem ... I hope to clone the shit out her. You know ... the whole ceed ordering phobia !
I plan on just lst'ing and SC'ing this time around. Next time maybe fim/top while lst. I am sold on this lst though. Lay that bugger on its side and I cant stop the "tops" from popping up. They all think the are tops ... rofl
I really didnt plan on the SC'ing, but I had too. Have to move some of the big stuff. And with my current light configuration, I can put one or two lights closer to make those leaves twist how I need them too. YaY Funny how they look when an upside down leave twists toward the light.
I was luck right off to find a nice distance from lights because ya really dont know til ya do it. The nodes are very tight. At least I feel they are.
Hope I didnt forget anything ...
On with the pix

I am very happy so far. Hell , I never grew anything before. But plan on much more !
Ok ... Should I count on this to almost triple in size when I flip to 12/12 ? (or close too) Height and girth or ?
Thanks Chief for the hijack ... lol
Thanks for the catch Art

well here is my WW she has adjusted very well to my LST job 
yes yes there is some yellowing so dont talk shit but alot of her is green. plus i had to water and feed again bumped her up to 1 1/2 teaspoon strength of veg nutes. if anything ill just take of the dead leaves again. and this is my clone. not sure it'll make it xD
I usually take a clear drinking glass & turn it upside down over the little guys to maintain humidity.
Just remember to take it off a couple times a day.

whoops sorry i took my ziplock bag off for the picture!!! but i have a bag on it as muchas possible except when i spray the dome down
I should have not made it so long winded ... Hell, I get sidetracked if i read something long. roflShe looks good. Did you do any type of LST, or training?: Sorry if I missed that ..
Yes Sir ... LST since 10 or 14 days old. And what I think they call Super Crop ? Anyhow .. I had no choice on the "SC'ing", All the huge leaves had to be moved for the smaller ones to get some love too. NO, top or fim tho. Maybe next time, to see the difference. I am happy so far ... but have much to learn. What I did with the LST is lay the stem horizontal ... one of the pix shows (kinda) what the plan is/was.
I keep looking at all your luscious looking ladies and wish I could walk or drive to get me some good strains. lol
I have a Krush on that Purple Voodoo bro ... Have dreams about that one. Ha

Until the leafs are totally brown/ dead, they are still helping a little.
Just leave them until they can easily be knocked off, or fall off.

Well ive had tobs of leaves go yellow on me more underneath the plant. Thats the obes i took off. Also with how i got my LSTing right now alot of growth in the middle was getting no light so i cut those leaves off so the light hits the middle pretty good and already new growth from the branches is coming in very well

well here she is as of today taking LST VERY VERY WELL!!! bumped up to 1 1/2 nutes strength not 2 teaspoons as that is the full amount. She took it well i think/ very green looking healthy. I cut off a lot of yellow leaves underneath that were in darkness. so now i got good light penetration!!! Also got my flowering nutes last night !!!! Thanks bud I owe you!!! You know who you are!!!! so end of the month i plan to flip! but i have also topped a few more branches off of her im having fun witht his now now onto my clone :-/
its been 4 days now since i have taken her. yes yes i know bottom leaves are suppose to be yellow to flush it all for the roots to grow the roots. i hope it'll work out well!!!!!!anyways heres what im working with now a days.
202 TOTAL WATTS OF CFL bulbs.
Alaskan fish fert (veg only) 5-1-1
and also flowering nutes .5-1-1
Closet grow.
Strain is White Widow
and keep in mind this is my 2nd attempt at an indoor grow! 1st time was mediocre successful i pulled at 4 weeks due to personal reasons.
using a regular fan that you would in your bedroom for air movement!!!!
Thank you all for the support and love and advice!!!
At that size she (your big girl) shouldn't be losing any leaves.
HMHO, something might be up causing that, and the different color in the new growth is troublesome. Newly emerging growth should be light green, I've not seen any different in happy plants.
Just a few thoughts, not criticism.

it could be ph in the water.... um idk about the new growth but ive seen it go pink a few times like that and than it goes back to normal. But thank you very much. idk was told they are "sugar leaves" and i shouldnt be worried. but thank you...At that size she (your big girl) shouldn't be losing any leaves.

Not being critical at all my friend - just trying to help.
Back to the sugar leaves are we? lol
I think they call them that because they're the tiny leaves in the bud that are covered with "sugar".
IIRC this WW started life under the weather ? And has done a few weird things ... (to me). A great turn around 
Who knows, she may have some more surprises up her sleeve. You know ... to test you
OK ... that should do it for a min

Who knows, she may have some more surprises up her sleeve. You know ... to test you ROFL ... ya know, let me ask a question. Is it true that the "sugar leaves" only come out at night. NO, j/k ... only show up in flower (12/12) ?
OK ... that should do it for a min
