oh yeah i repottd, they were in 3 gal pots now 7.5 gal, the bottoms were all rooted so i hope ive done the right thing an havnt upset them to much!!

thats how you start the lst, plant has already grown a lot, but its never too late to train.

if you had originally done that with the big ones they would be monsters now. the only problem with tall plants is the lower branches won't get any light , maybe try supplementing it with cfls.

i suppose its all a learning curve, with the next plants just try to keep an even canopy of buds so they are all equal, i call them commie buds.

Those girls are going to need tied down very soon. I don't know how much space you have left above the light but I would expect those sativas to grow at least another 30-40%. Just stick a pole into each pot and take the top of the plant and bend that sucker right down and tie it off against the pole. Two things are going to happen, 1: You will have massess more room, and 2: You will have a load of colas starting to grow out!

It will look like half of the McDonalds sign for a while, but I would highly recommend. And really don't worry too much about supercropping, unless you vilently snap the branch off, the plant will contineu to grow. I have had branches hanging on and still developing. In fact the wind snapped a huge brach of around 3 foot from my outdoor plant, I have just tied it back on....still happy and growing.

Good luck.

EDIT, if you need any clarity on this let me know, I also have pictures in my thread of plants I have done that to.

f_ck !!! u really think tthey could go as high as that!!? Wow! probably got about a metre leftup there height wise( they go that tall ill be in trouble wiv the misses) room wise, i could probably put another strut across the centre of the room to give more space if i tied them over , would i benefit from this?? or was this a suggestion incase i hadn the head room?

A sativa can triple it's size once put into flower. I lst'd my arjans haze, got four ounces from her with a six week veg. Killer smoke.

how long did u flower her for?? the mother of these arjans i cut an dried about week 7!! i think, wasnt impatience, i really thought i had a problem wiv her an thought i was about to lose wot budd i had, i ended up wiv not far off 2 oz, im goin to sit these out till atleast week 11 or 12, ill see, i really dont know if is cos i cut early or wot,
but the budd didnt have the smell id thought it would have an the buzz i thought was very head strong, almost a trippy feel to it?
have u any pics of ur finishd arjans?

well i tied down my mystery plant down 2 days ago an im very happy with wots happnin with it an my others , the budding sites are startin to take off ( day 24 )

ive just fed them wiv canna boost accelarator yestaday, any 1 know if should expect a great diffrence? hope so, cost like 45 quid a bottle, misses dont know that i can tell ya !! lol!

 

[ghb]

i know people who swear by it, they use auto pots though. it's better in auto pots becuase it doesn't clog the little filters up. you should have got the bloombastic if you are hand feeding, just my oppinion though.

either way you are gonna see a huge difference, what are the directions? i never used the stuff. bloombastic says last 4-6 weeks. haven't you got about that much time to go?

 

[lazyeye]

if i go by from wot ive read on RIU, arjans takes a very very long time flowering, so there on day 26, yeah , thats right, about another 6-7 weeks should do it, ive also read that boost
speeds up the whole proccess, an read ppl saying there plants finishing a week early wiv boost,

wot do u think to that plant i played around wiv?

 

[ghb]

is that arjans?.
if it is i think you gotta be happy with that, straight away you can tell she's gonna be a MONSTER.


your big plants could benifit from lollipopping i reckon, the lower bud sites are about 6 foot from the light, don't think they are gonna produce much quality. keep posting pics please so i can see how they get on with the boost. as i say my friend is trying to get me to start using it cause he swears by it, sticking with the bbastic for now though.

no that plant was given to me by a friend, he bought it from pick n mix seeds, an tells me its calld 2 pounder,

lollipopping! now u are talkin, apart from them lookin the tities, ur right , i dont think there getting much light down there, wot do i do? and most important, if i start

choppin about at this stage will they still be ok?

 

[ghb]

just chop all small branches in the lower third of the plant, simple.

they will slow down growing for about a week, after that they will double in size every week. not only that but it means come harvest your life is easier, also allows better ventilation.

i know on plants that tall that is a lot to cut, but if i had my way it would be the bottom half of the plant, thats what i did with my lemon skunk. if you take a look at the buds in the lower 3rd i pretty much guarantee they will be no bigger come harvest , then they shrink to a 3rd the size anyway.

if you have any bud sites on the lower part that you wanna keep, just bend them over so they are sticking out from under the canopy. they will atleast catch some light this way.

2 pounder? sounds like it will yield a lot then, lol.

 

[lazyeye]

i managed to watch a video of the urban grower on youtube with a 2 pounder plant, fuck me , the plant had a main cola a long as my arm an as thick as my thigh!!! i want that shit!!!

any how, i noticed that 2 of my arjans were crispin up on the top so ive put canes in them an tied the 2 over, does this look ok? an any idea wot will now happen at the top as there wont be a main cola?

i also trimmd the lower fan leaves at the botom of 2 of the plants, hope there ok?

pictures not great , sorry

 

[ghb]

there wil stilll be a main cola, just a bent one. keep it up, show me some fox tail buds man
