Black Dream grow. Need help to get my skills inproved.

Growing this plant is not what I'm accustom to. I like it to get big so I can trim and make it all go crazy.
 
Today she has started expanding and noticeable growth upward. So doing the twelve flip on Tuesday or Wednesday should be a great time. Maybe doing smaller plants with shorter to yield will let me do a better longer cure. First I need to find if I even like the smoke. I don't know why I wouldn't :weed:. Kinda like beer. There all good. Some better than others. Oh during flowering I'm going to use a small amount of Sulfurless Molasses. They tend to love it. I used to much in the past and the soil started to reject water. Learned important lesson there. With keeping the fan leaves on. Only taking off if really need to. They should start sucking the nutrients right out of those leaves. Starting to purify it as it matures. Good morning my happy green people!:bigjoint::blsmoke:bongsmilie:clap::sleep:WAKE UP!
 
Day 28
Took my 6 lights and pushed them out farther. Now more light is getting to a bigger area. This little bugger is different. I need to do things different to get it right. So tonight I'm starting 12/12. Before I do that I'm going to find 2 clones. I think I have some good spots to pull from. The idea in the post above this. #42. I need the knowledge of how this plant finishes. The ways that its different from past grows. Then I can think of how the grow can go nonstop. With the record keeping I'm doing I can see what can be done. I think I have enough lights. Just need to see what angles maximize light exposer. Because the plant is so dense in VEG. Nutes I'm giving aren't a lot. The plant is still in the happy zone. Can't wait for the little guy to explode. Also because this is a low plant I'm only doing this 28 day VEG. Instead of 60 days. I love the idea of removing 30 days from the grow cycle. So keeping it green and happy.
 
DAY 28 start over. The angle change in the 6 lights has made much more growth in a short time period. I'm going to VEG on for a few more days. Shes growing up like I wanted now. I have a ton more lights I can add. This is going to be my best plant yet. Crazy good. Loving it!
 
Added 3 more lights on the left side. I'm getting a center stalk growing out of it now. I want to wait in VEG a bit longer. I know the next plant like this will be in a much smaller pot. The look up on it recommends a smaller finishing pot. I am a 5 gallon finish everytime. So that will be new. Right now. I'm going to watch it daily. I see the part that needs a little bigger center first. Love the ins and outs of the grow. Always a great time.
 
Day 31. Tomorrow going to start flower. Really counting on the stretch hitting like the breeder notes say. After yesterdays trim. Air can circulate around the critical areas. Should have been trimming more. Thought a low rider would need to be bushy. Thought wrong. Have the sides developing just like I wanted to see. The center is good and strong. She will be pretty. Going to take 2 clones. Just in case I like her. Might just end up with a mother plant. Want to grow sativa next. I need a good supply before I do that. Weight of dried and cured. I won't know. I can post pictures if you guys want to guess. I know the amount I need by looking at it. Will share more pictures as she flowers. Been hurting pretty bad and sick. So I have been only working on her and documenting the grow. Sorry I don't have pictures to share. Next round will have pictures more often. Thank you.
 
More of DAY 31
Tonight she gets darkness. Time to move on. So this is my lights right now.

She is read. All trimmed and doing well. Great circulation. Its warm in the main room. The closet is holding at 85 right now. The rest of the time it was 80 before I added more lights. When more of the cool air gets in the room stuff will lower. Humidity is low. maybe 30. The plant as you can see is surrounded. As it grows more. I can add up to 8 more lights in the center. I also have more bars to put lights on. 2 flouresent tubes. Fat and short. One fat and short genaric grow light. This one is going to be interesting to see what is going to happen. I'll get my clones tonight before lights out or tomorow.
 
So far so good. Technically them pig tail cfls are rated t5, I started out with Incandescent lights years ago Lol. Information was real limited in the early to mid 90s so there was a lot of trial and error on my part . now I use 2 600hps/mh. But spring and summer I'm in the great outdoors.. Keep it up, doing great with what you have

Thank you. This is the first low plant I've tried to grow. I see it ready. I just hope it hits 3 times its size like the breeder says. I didn't know that about those CFLs. I have a lot more I can add. They are the day light 100watt EQ. Low wattage.
 
Go by the true ratings on the box or bulb, don't trust or go by equivalent ratings . might say 100watt equivalent but its probably a 45 watt bulb. On the base/ballast by the model number should be the real rating or true watts

The watts are low. I know for sure. Thats why I feel safe putting lots on a power bar. I know better bulbs equals better budz. Can't buy new right now.
 
I like to grow small sea of green plots or small perpetual grows. I did alright in a 2x4x6 closet with five endless sky plants. Average 2 ozs a plant
