I find it very hard to believe that you smoke pot... You need to chill the fuck out... Go smoke a bowl... We are mostly total nubes in this post and would appreciate support...... not bashing... Take a pill relax.... Go smoke a bowl... then go FUCK YOURSELF......who ever says simple molasses will give you a 30% fucking increase in yields is a fucking idiot. thats about the same that using Co2 will give you. if it was as simple as adding a 2 dollar bottle of sugar to your grow to gain 30%, then you wouldnt have people like me spending hundreds and potentially thousands for a co2 generator, controller and monitor to get that same 30%. give me a fucking break...so your telling me if i use co2 and molasses i will see a 60% increase in yields?? HA! dont get me wrong, molasses is useful. it will slightly sweeten you buds, and might thicken your buds VERY slightly, but your stupid if you think you will get anything close to 30%. molasses is also helpful b/c it feeds all of the little good germs/fungi in your soil, and it will help keep your plant nice and fertilized for the last two weeks after you flush...anyone who tells you it does anything different or as out of the world as significantly increasing your yield, is a fucking tool. dont listen.
yea, i know you guys are total noobs...trust me, that didnt need to be pointed out. im on my first grow as well, and i too am what many people would consider a "noob", at least in terms of actual growing experience. however, you guys are obviously noobs in terms of gullibility. if you actually believed that cat when he said you would get 30% increase and not question that, then that makes me angry (that doesnt sound even a little bit out of proportion??). i apologize, but stupid sheep (IE: you and your butt buddy timmy) who just follow the shepherd any which way he rings his bell, without so much as even a question or a little bit of independent research, really fucking pisses me off. so please, go CHOKE on a bowl, take a few HUNDRED pills, and if your going to fuck ANYONE, take care that it is ONLY YOURSELF, as this world has far too many dumb sheep in it already.I find it very hard to believe that you smoke pot...

i dont care what you think you said, the fact remains that you were throwing a number around, giving people false information with no factual backing. again, i will reiterate, 30% is a VERY VERY substantial gain in yields, and if that could be achieved with 2 dollars worth of sugar syrup, then that would be the silver bullet to any and all growers nutrient line up. but that is not the case.dear dip shit
i said up to 30% and co2 can increase your yeild more then 30% if you where spending thousands of dollars on co2 for only 30% max more then you are an idiot because that would be a waste of money and a horrible investment. hey i got an idea lets spend thousand and make hundreds hmmmmmm.........that makes sense. NOT
Oh and i have a book by Ed Rosenthal that says "Co2 can increase your productivity in a linear ratio up to 300%." and that was start from his book.... need me to photo copy it on here to prove how much of an a$$ h0!e you are????
lets not start shit on a friendly post ok ... where all on the same page grow be happy with what you got....innless your begal thief and have a very small dick and a very big mouth
idn about you but i would rather spent hundreds and makes thousands...

dude, the more you keep talking the fucking dumber you look. you think spending lets say, 1500 bones is a bad investment to gain 30%? i dont understand you when you say "spend thousands and make hundreds". theres two problems with what you said there...1) how the fuck do you know how many plants im growing? what if i have 500? i think i would be making more then a few hundred right there with a 30% increase. 2) even if i only had 4 plants, and i wasnt going to make all my money back the first go around, there is still many years of growing i can do with that "horrible investment" and im pretty sure i would make my money back ten-fold. in fact, growing pot indoors is the same exact way. are you going to tell someone who is buying thousands of dollars worth of lighting, seeds, ventilation, hydro-tables, and all that jazz that he is an "idiot" because "he is spending thousands to make a few hundred"???? economics 101 buddy, growing pot, just like co2, is what you would call a "long term investment".
dude. just because you read something in a book, doesnt mean it is a fact of life. so you read in a book that you will get a 300% increase (there you go again with throwing around numbers) with co2? and you believed it!?!?! that just proves to me more then ever that you certainly are a sheep. did you read from the same book that you can get a 30% increase with syrup too? if you dont question things like that then you really are something else...news flash buddy-anyone can write a book about anything. it doesnt make it true.
i know for a fact that you cant yield anything close to 300% with co2. that would turn 2 ounces into 6 ounces, and that just aint happening. here, this is the first website i found doing a simple google search (co2 for plant yields) link. it gives the % of yield increases for many different crops, including tomatoes, at 29% (which is the plant that is most closely related to marijuana).
here, this is from another site (link) using those same search terms.
[SIZE=-0]"Greenhouse-grown vegetables, including tomatoes, cucumbers, and lettuce, show earlier maturity, larger fruit size, greater numbers of fruit, a reduction in cropping time, and yield increases ranging from 10 to 70 percent, averaging 20 to 50 percent."[/SIZE]
go ahead, actually do some independent research and you will see that YOU ARE FUCKING WRONG. have a nice day.
My light is about 1 foot away from the top of the plant.... Its streched for sure.... a major mistake I will not be making next time for sure.... U sing a 600 watt hps from start to finish with no duct fan has givin me a radical obsticl course of temp issues.... Would it be smart to cut the top in the 5th week of flowering? I agree the lower buds are sacrificed without creating an even canopy... I have learned alot of things that I will do differntly next time.... Trial and error for me I guess.... I have ben very scetched to do almost anything to my plant because I only started with one and shes all I got.lol....How far away from the top of your plant is your light?
Have you considered removing the top part of the cone so you can lower your lamp much nearer or can you afford/provide some better side lighting?
Personally i would say that it looks like your lamp is to far away from your tops and this has caused the stretch
