I was checkin out your grow and it looks good :)

I'm lookin for a HPS on craigslist or something so I can finish out my grow with fat bud. It's crazy how genetics change how the plant grows. My plant is so much more bushy and was grown under CFL

Does using a HPS (red light) during veg make em stretch a little?

How old are they and how far in to flowering? I'm lookin forward to seeing those buds fill out

I wouldn't say mine are stretched I used a mixed packet of hybrid seeds - some are indica dominant some sativa dominant (some tall some short) , my lights 600 watts, so regardless of colour spectrum they've always deffinately recieved enough lumens.
The only thing about using hps during veg (so I've heard) is that they don't grow as quick, however my plants are only 48 days old from seed, they have been in flower 13 days.
Thanx for popping by x

when the plants first start flowering they do appear to stretch a bit. But you'll know if you did everything right if the buds grow and swell to "fill in" where you can see stem!

Thanx email, I thought that could be the case, I suppose my plants also look taller due to the fact I have topped them ?

Anyhow, here's a few pics :D
I'm loving the look of that young bud :D

topping would keep them shorter since you are cutting the main stem causing more nodes to shoot out sideways.

holy crap gg look at em go!!!

ahhh you are so going to beat me lol. I think my girls are a week or so behind for some reason. Maybe they got stressed along the way or something. LOL probably just cause its bag seed.

I'm so glad to see your girls are flourishing, your colas will be filled in no time!!!! xx
