was thinking about cutting bigass fan leafs that's blocking lights off the lower bud sites. But then I'm thinking naaaa I should just do lst again and just tuck the fan leafs inside so here's what it looks like after I tied these 2 beeechese down. With the before and after pic. Before that It was untied for about a week. But the week before it was all on lst for about 3 weeks or 2. After I untied it sht grew so tall and it was so uneven one side was so tall one side was like half the tall ones size. And some didn't even expose to light cuz of fan leafs. So I just did this to em

stupid to cut off fan leaves for this reason. redundant to fuss really, with proper controls those leaves will do their job just fine.

I am curious as to how people let it get this far... like didn't you notice that shit wasn't right over a month ago? Next time just leave the damn plant alone and let it grow because all the other stuff is clearly beyond your scope.

I'm confused, did you read literally anything before you started this?

i see several things wrong from the jump. Why did you use CFL's over LEDs? You know there's mercury in those right? Why did you use Tinfoil over painting a surface white? or white hardboard to build your enclosure, it's dirt cheap. 2Wx2Dx4H cab for under $20(if you got scrap wood for framing) and it's already white for you.

I assume you have light leaks, it looks like your setup is just in the middle of a room and getting covered?

It looks like you may have read a CFL book, or guide, I will tell you this, they are outdated and you just wasted a tonne of money on all that shit. If you can return it do so and go read the LED threads. If you can't return all the stupid light domes that you wasted money on then buy LED** bulbs. If you break one of those CFL's you are putting yourself at risk. You break it over the plant and it's game fucking over bra. You wasted all that time and a shitty $5 bulb just ruined it. Get rid of the CFLs.

We all started somewhere but I researched for months before my first grow, actually started with dwc and hempy and yielded 2 ounces a piece from 4 plants and a single 400w. Not great, but was my very first grow.

If this is your first grow we always do things to mess them up. But there comes a point when you should notice things are not going good and you should seek help. It seems lots of new growers do zero research and end up in this situation, not knowing something is terribly wrong.

That setup is no good, lights are way too close, yes there cfls, but they can burn your buds still, it's doesn't look like enough light, they look overfed, the position of the lights is just all over the place doesn't look like it will penetrate past the tops. Your biggest problem is 41 days you say you're at? That's 7 weeks of flowering your plants should have dencent sized buds and filling themselves in at this point. You might be counting days wrong.


Either way you can still save this plant, get some more lights and stop feeding so much nitrogen. Give more info on your setup and maybe you can get further help.

I got lucky. I planted seeds, let them veg till around 18 inches like Dr Greenthumb said, and switched to flower.
I followed directions, never cut a leaf unless dead or damaged, no fuss, and they grew into really nice xmas tree shapes, as tall as the breeder said and finished when he said too.
my buds looked like his pics, I love marijuana!

not luck just a degree of intelligence, lots of patience and common sense

Can I let it flower longer will it be the same yield as normally?
