first grow 5 weeks flower opinions please

[rene112388]

Ok so this is my first grow and these babies have seen some stress they were really scrawny when i transitioned them...as bad as this is these plants have had lights dropped on them multiple times, some fell of the table on thier tops, had some nut burn then heat stress but they still keep going amazing plants. so i just wanted to know how they are looking now see if any of you might have advice thanks

 

[growace]

You should have a good harvest, congrads. Are they getting enough light?

 

[rene112388]

I'm using a 600w hps and using mylar they were a bit far away though moved them closer when I got the heat under control

looks quite good for first attempt

 

[rene112388]

Thanks I just started germinating more I'm trying jiffy pellets (always worked for me) the paper towel and soaking just kinda playing around trying to learn more hope the next will go smoother

 

[irishwyrick]

they don't look bad hun... be ready to stake them up. the stems are pretty thin so when your buds start packing on weight there gonna fold over but its no big deal as long as your ready for it.


keep up the good work

 

[rene112388]

I anticipated that but only after it happened to one in veg lol its a learning process

Looking real good. I went through all of the exact same things with mine that were in pots. Guess that's the fun of growing though, learning things as they come. Next time around will be freakin awesome though.

 

[miteubhi?]

Agreed. For dropping lights on 'em they look great!
Just remember, less is more. Do everything slow and methodically
and write EVERYTHING down. Helps down the road.
Happy Blunting!

Check it. Post 69. Sorry, I'm a perv.

looking good to me...especially after all the abuse you listed!! About to harvest my first grow here in a week or two...yea and just staked em up yesterday...dam swollen buds gettin heavy!!!!!!!

 

[rene112388]

Haha yeah poor things and they have had to be moved several times too so matinence could be done by management thanks everyone

 

[rene112388]

Ok so I'm gonna get some more pics up but till then I have a question anyone heard of using kool aid the last 2 weeks of flower or has anyone done it? It was suggested to me but I'm not sure the reliability of the source

 

[carokann]

haha kool aid? somebody is definitly fucking with you. i cant believe those are 5 weeks into flower, my plants had more buds 2 days into flower. somthing is not right. do u have a timer for 12/12.

 

[rene112388]

Ok first off carokann I have to say I noticed your sig and tombstone kickass movie and about the kool aid I really wish this guy was messing with me but I watched him do it he grows for the club up here I just don't trust what he says my extremely recent ex is pushing me to do it but doesn't sound like a good idea to me and yeah they are a bit scrawny I make a lot of mistakes like starting before I knew anything about growing but I've learned a lot and have high hopes for the next grow

Kool Aid ... potsssium chloride KCl ....Interesting

Hi Ya Rene

ohhh ...plant abuse ... Gonna have to report you

From the pic's they look a bit stunted in development and a bit strechy in growth ... but they are budding and i have seen a lot worse that have not had lights dropped on em ... So your doin good

Cant see your pots to well ... so i have to ask this silly question ... Do they have drainage holes ?... look just like buckets ... I just wanted to be sure you have good drainage ?

Your doing really well for a first grow ( put a lot of the guys here to shame you do ) Stick with it ...and good luck

if u want to give ur plants sugar u should give them unsulphured organic mollasses. but u pretty much need to have a microherd in ur soil first cause thats all the sugar does is feed them. u can start a microherd by brewing some tea for 1 day. get 5 gallon bucket, air pump and stone. get some earth worm castings mollasses. thats all uneed, but to make it better tea u can add guano, alfalfa meal and kelp extract. i dunno if u can get those things where u live though.

Ok so that's not a stupid question at all they were in 8x10 pots I knew thiis was too small so I just bought 5 gal buckets today and transplanted which went smoothly so I'm going to see if that helps and thanks lol

 

[rene112388]

Totally wish I knew seems all o f them end up like that I need to update with new pics but most the people to respond were people I pm and told me to let them know when I got pics sad how unhelpful riu can be

 

[rene112388]

Ok so I have various stages of flower and am concerned about my 5.5 footer and my 6' they have really stunted growth they are in ffof and 5 gal buckets no discoloration I know its not temp humitity or nuts already eliminated these things soil seems compacted possiblly root bound?? What do you think +rep for all replies will get pics up asap

 

[rene112388]
