bright green as in lighter than the rest or darker? Congrats on cleaning up the undergrowth - technically that is not lollipopping though. When you loli them it's 1 cola per plant with no side branching or alternative colas.



The two in the middle here could be considered lollipops as well as the one on the right if I had trimmed those three lower branches.

lighter than the rest of the plant?? looks like lush new growth but im starting to think its a nitrogen deficiency and bye the way those are monsters :) i can only wish for something near that level

Could be N deficiency but it's also possible that they are growing very quickly and the leaves are growing faster than they can be filled with chlorophyll. I have a feeling your plants could easily outdo those 4 :)

Optical illusion to a degree. Those were some of the first plants I ever grew - pretty impressive for CFL buds. Strains were unknown as I was given a handful of random seeds from a local breeder. Really wish I had kept some of the strains around as I have to say that at least half, if not more, of the plants I grew from those seeds have been better than anything I've grown since. If you find a keeper...keep it :)

tonights first time they`ve been watered in 5 days as i flushed them then. still got that very light green shade especially on the largest 1.heres tonights pics IMAG0272.jpgIMAG0273.jpgIMAG0274.jpgIMAG0275.jpgIMAG0276.jpgIMAG0277.jpgyou can probably see the curling in the last pic aswell as the bright green. need to get a de-humidifyer now as still in 50`s. realised the waters ph was off.the waters sitting in a 45L plastic bucket and was around 7.?`s i have added the ph down and now its 6.4,is this ok and could this be the bright green and the leafs curling down??

Do you have a fan circulating air? That could help with the droop. Your pH is fine at 7.0, I wouldn't bother pHing if I was you, unless you just have time to kill of course.

I don't think they have any deficiencies. They look very healthy to me.

I empathize with you. My first journal had zero comments until I was halfway through flowering and even then it was pretty minimal. It feels super discouraging but at the same time just keeping a journal is a great way to learn. I'm constantly referencing all of my old journals.

The more you post on others threads the more they're likely to visit yours as well. It can take a while to gather a following and find like minded helpful people but in the end it can be rewarding - I hope you don't scrap the thread.

** And if you're giving me credit for growing them then I expect a cut ;) (I think you are doing a great job growing some very pretty plants - mind blowing for a first time).

*** just noticed your journal was in the newbie section. Might ask a mod to move it to the grow journal section.

thanks for the support m8, think i`ll keep the thread and i have taken your advice ( not for the first time lol ) and asked for my thread to be movedm to the grow journal section. i am happy you dont think i have any problems. i dont think that i am over watering but since i recovered these ladies i didnt have any more clay pebbles to put in the bottom so they are just canna pro and perlite to the bottom of the pots so i believe i have poor drainage.maybe this explains the colour changes which aren`t easy to see in the photos. will post again in few days m8 thanks again :)

Don't worry about anything at the bottom of the pots. They've over and over proved it does little other than keeping the dirty from falling out of the holes. Glad you're keeping the journaling up :)

I am starting to think the bright green is because the tallest one is closest to the light.I'm using an aircooler so I can hav them closer at around 9inches.I have put my hand thr and its comfortable.all are now being given a smaller dose of Vega and I'm now using the Flores but its well diluted down.also just added 1ml of boost for all.take a look at my ladies today IMAG0364.jpgIMAG0365.jpgIMAG0366.jpgIMAG0367.jpgIMAG0368.jpgIMAG0369.jpgIMAG0369.jpg

They look amazing - healthier than many plants I've seen grown by seasoned growers. Hell, I have some plants right now that look magnitudes worse than yours - and I'm not embarrassed to say so because yours really look that good.

Lighter green at growth points is normal - general leaf tissue is produced faster than the caratenoids and chloroplasts that are responsible for the darker green coloration.
