growth in flower

Is your plant sitting on top of anything if so set your plant as low as you can to the floor. And also if you can put a few cfls on the side of your baby I've noticed a big positive change in growth when I did that my buds are getting bigger faster and it's not streching for light
Also maybe for shits and giggles put your plant underneth a ceiling fan with cfls in It. Lol

i would pull the top of your plant down with some string about 3/4 of the way up the stalk, but don't tie a knot cause you want to allow for room to grow. and try and do it near a strong node that is gonna hold. your top nug will grow back up and you will give your undergrowth more light and you will allow yourself a little more room up top.

you definately need more light by the looks of the stretching. the first foot looks great then it got super stretched. side lights will make that girl blossom nicely. at this point i would try and put a 42w or a couple 23w with a reflector on each preflower. you will love yourself 6 weeks from now for doing so.

sorry but id prolly chuck it outside and let it flower and start again. (we can do that where im from the climate suits rater well)

dont worry though its all about learning from your mistakes, next time just keep the light closer to the plant and block off the space above the light so its got nowhere to escape too. (what light are you using if i may ask?)

my post sound nasty i know but seriously in the time it takes that one to finish flowering you could already have one growing that you haven't allowed to stretch for light almost being ready itself possibly.

hey i remember my first plant that made it to finish when i was like 11 (visitation rights made it a bitch for a kid to keep a plant alive over holidays lol).

Hey man I need constructive criticism. Everyone has good ideas to help. Unfortunately its balls cold in my area so outside is a no go. So if I try to bend her a lil bit, will I be able to angle my fixture? Its held by two chains. I'm just so nervous. I don't wanna break her in half.

hehe i was just being a smart ass.

sorry i am always one to help a newbie in need but i will never stray from the true facts lol.

hey you got a plant to the flowering stage thats a good start.
also i think tou took me the wrong way i was saying it may pay off to start again now with the knowledge you have learnt and the people you have found that are willing to help. because possibly in the same amount of time it takes to finish flowering you could have anotherone nearly ready to flower was all.

and the only reason i said chuck it outside was on the off chance indoor/outdoor growing works wherever your from.

sorry if you took that post to heart it wasnt a stab or a dig it was more just one of the reality boosters i throw in there as mentioned before. kinda so people can try and better themselves sorta thing lol. even a professional should always strive to be better at what they do.. or something like that.

appar from the stretching the plant looks realatively happy so youve done ok for a beginner.

p.s ya never know we could all be wrong sme skunk strains naturally grow stretchy with clumps of buds. (the real old skunk grew like that too). just a positiv3e thought for ya. ya never know ya could get lucky and have something smilar as i structure on your hands.

im with the throw a few cfls in there idea :) i dont think your gonna have anywhere to bend it lol.

peace out
