hey fam, Please let me know what you think. This is my first plant growing indoors. I have only one she is 4 feet tall and she is a sativa i think. Let me know how much longer you think i should flower for. Thanks

Looks a bit stretched, but hopefully those spaces will fill out with buds. I'd say you have at least a good 4 weeks left. Read up on trichomes and get yourself 30-100x pocket microscope. The trichomes will tell you when to harvest based on the kind of stone you want(heady or couchlock).

Why is strecthing bad????

Tighter node spacing means more bud sites per foot. Stretching can suggest that your plant isn't getting enough light.

So if i keep the cfls and add the 150 hps i should be straight in getting a descent Yield???

Yo...Stretching is bad because the plant will not be as dense with shoots(bud spots). They will be weaker most often and essentially less yeild.

Lower lights and raise lights slower. Make sure no light burn. You will notice the difference. Plants will bush more.

Next time you should also super crop a plant(bush plant) fun to experiment.

Respect

Ha echo...sorry didnt see those posts. MORE YEILD

Adding more light never hurts. How many CFL watts you have now? Just make sure your temps don't get out of control. Ideal is about 80.

Right now about 120 and yea i keep the closet open during the day with a fan blowing constantly. The temp should be good. i cant cut a vent hole because i rent. or maybe i could if i knew how to do it any suggestions?

Do you have a thermometer? Put the 150w in there with the CFL's and check the temp. If it's not much over 80, you don't need to vent.

ok i will i am gonna scoop it on july 3. i want to let her flower with it for another two months and let the buds fill out more. i would hope they would at least double in size overall i am pleased with this. it is a good learning process. i am going to order seeds next any ideas or suggestions for my second grow??

I like kush strains. Lots of good kush seeds out there. I'll be trying Kings Kush next grow. Right now I have some Afghan Kush seedlings that I just started. Second time growing it, that's how much I liked it the first time.

Yea just cfls iam getting frustrated with them. i have only about 110 watts on her i need to get a 150 hps from my hydro store. he has got one for $80. so i am gonna still keep the cfls and just add that to it. I really hope the buds fill out

 

[Cr8z13]

You could save a lot of money and just buy a few 42W CFL's, that's really all you need besides fixtures.

stretching is normal, especially with a sative dominant plant, so dont stress over it. just keep your cfls close and the hps as close as you can. sure it makes for less dense buds but it is still gonna happen, especially during the dark periods. looking good man, my babies are at the same point as yours.
