How many weeks old are these total?

I am growing out Sensi Seeds NL and they are pretty big plants to be autos actually, I am just in week 2-3 of flowering so they still have a lot of time left to go, but so far it looks like there will be a good little bit on her.

Here are some of the most recent pics of one of the NL's, I have two others as well. Two are pretty similar, but the third one is pretty short but insanely wide, probably takes up a 3'x3' square area of the room, very indica dom, did have a cal-mag problem with the smallest one, but have since flushed and it seems to be improving....

^ This is the last one that is really short and bushy, and had the cal-mag problem, not real sure why. Seems to be doing better after the flush though, extremely wide and bushy girl!

you got any new pics ?
how the little one's doin?
i started CS on one of the branches of the NL i thik i might hide it in the back of my box to see if i can make it stretch some its packing nodes on but the branches are to small to lst so its just a big leaf sandwhich
2013-10-05 07.08.52.jpg i got that other AKR out of the way got an extra square foot and a half floor space
2013-10-05 07.08.29.jpg so ive seen a few grow journals that say their NL's started flowering around 50-70 days >.< ouch!!!!!
2013-10-05 07.07.21.jpg got my purple haze under control not so wild now i probably gained a foot by training the branches in a spiral its been a slow tedious process of maybe an inch a day my old lady kept fuckin with me while i was lst'n one of the branches and i ended up breaking it probably around 40 nodes on that branch it looks scrawny but has so many nodes it was hogging my veg led for the past couple months ;)

Day 10

the smaller of the 2 is not as big nor growing anywhere as quick as its sister but still ok for how old it is. The big girl has blown me away and grows bigger every day and currently standing at just over 3 inches tall but leaf to leaf is over 6 inches as leaves are just over 3inch each. The pics range from my new 2 and a pic of older one that's throwing out small pom pom on top. You can see that 3 seeds have given 3 different plants so I'm happy to get atleast 1 monster :) . I think 12 weeks total will be about right as I was reading a article the other day saying 7-8 weeks flower and a month or so for "veg". Hoping for a merry Xmas :)

Transplanted the older 6ish week old northern light today into a smaller pot as there's no way I'm going to get more then a j off of her so out with her into the backyard for 13hrs a day until finished..I'm going to start a fem bubblelicious off on weekend so want space for her and only want 3 autos in tent at a time as these nl will blow up soon :) . Tek,my big girl is on her forth and starting her 5th node off now should I start feeding nutes then when 5th shows or still wait another 2 weeks. She is 2 weeks old Thursday. Cheers

id wait theres still plenty in the soil
id wait a week or so
Cheers mate will do.
I'm only feeding water and the rhizotonic at the moment and think ill stop rhizo at week 5-6. Can notice the difference using this rhizo its not bad stuff. When do you stop using roots66,before flower?.

Transplanted today and perfect timing aswell as when I gently turned her upside down and tapped her the whole perfect cube of soil mix and fine roots came out. No roots were visible on outside of bottle but give another few days and it would of been to late. Here she is a few hours after transplant

just want to say thanks. My nl auto is 12 days since breaking thru the soil. I had her in a 6 inch pot not knowing about their delicate roots
as soon as I read thus I got her 5 gallon pot ready n gently transplanted. she came out all in one piece. She has a 7 inch wing span n is just lovely. Hope she's okay thanks for the great info.

Day 16
I am hoping big girl will end up being huge by the end of flower as today she stands 10inch from tip to tip and just over 6.5 inch tall and towers all round over her sister. There has been no extra growth in the last 24-28 hours so I'm thinking its all happening downstairs. Found a happy zone of 26 degrees and 48% humidity and they thrive in it. Feeding every 3rd day of water n rhizo and she's loving it so can't see nutes being used anytime soon. Dates off on cam but here's few pics of the 2

it stinks so bad when i feed it like high grade skunk
i pinched mine at that age
dont know how well it reacted but it kept the stretch down

dude lol i got a kc45 in a 2.5 gal its growing so slow way behind the smaller containers
but holy shit @ 4 nodes the leaves are like this
2013-10-12 22.12.33.jpg the smell just smelling it no touching is berrys if you rub it you can taste diesel ( smells that strong) and smell cat piss >.<


i have defoliation , razor blade incisions in the base of the stalk / experiment going
im actually about to get my hands on some DR.nodes im trying to find a way to keep them as compact as possible so i can do a SOG of just cola's without lollipopping

They look pretty choice tek and the berrys smell is one of my fav,is that berry bomb?. When you say fed is that nutes?,mine stinks of skunk already when i foliar spray the rhizo.. I will have to do some defol trimming on big girl in next few weeks as bud sites will be blocked by massive leaves as she's just exceeding my expectations already and hope I yield a few oz's off her when she's done. I have a 4x4x7 tent and hope these 2 take up the whole thing in the end. Planted my bubblelicious auto yesterday so she's in the tent for the next month.

i think the defoliation wont be necessary TBH it should stretch when it switches to flower
i took one leaf from the NL but it was a large fan almost the size of my hand that blocked the whole plant basically when i first lst'd it

berry bomb shoved up a skunks bum that was lube'd with diesel
and then the skunk is rolling around in a cats litter box

yes sir i fed it around 600 ec veg feed and it stalled but didnt burn so i cut it back last time it didnt stall but still stank
my soil is almost inert TBH very little nutes and its still thriving im not going to feed again until it calls for it

Ok cheers i won't defol her il just see how she goes. Yeh by looks of it I won't feed for a while unless they call for it. My current soil mix of coco,peat moss and sphagnum is doing awesome so will stick with it for autos. That berry bomb sound fkn sick and makes my mouth water. So after a month growth goes off does it?.

ya it has a big spurt right before preflower then it slows during preflower then back to growing
no idea how old the one i have is ill figure it up again its around 40-45 days i think
ive been trying to keep it compact and it seems to be working

Day 20
not much going on the last few days bar a real pungent skunk smell emerging and she stands 9" tall and leaf to leaf across a crazy 1 foot :)
temps dropped to around 23-24 degrees which actually slowed up growth a tad as I'm usually running 26-27 and its happy there. Still only feeding rhizo and water every 3rd day and will continue til I start with additives.
