[CFL/SOIL/12/12 ]BBbubblegum's First Grow [CFL/SOIL/12/12]

[BBbubblegum]

I've been working at the head shop for about two months now almost. Learned a shitload. Very happy with what I've been able to gather information wise. Thank god for having a grow section at my job and countless books for me to read through whenever I feel like it basically. I'm sure I'll be able to help you out a lot more if you have some questions man. Just shoot me a pm with whatever you need and I'll help you out the best I can and if I can't we'll start a thread for it!

Thanks. Can you tell me why i see no pisitls? It has been 2 weeks since I've seen calyxes with 2 very small hairs. And now nothing.

I'd say give it a few more days to a week to see what it does. Did you do any pruning after it went to 12/12 and are you using any nutes?

 

[Cloudz2600]

Agreed, just wait a few more days. My plants only had the pair of preflowers and then like 3 or so days later just exploded and threw out pistils everywhere. Check the pics in my grow for the last week or so.

Yeah i pruned quite abit. I cut off all the seriously bitten up leaves.

 

[Outlawd15]

That also adds a couple to few days setback. Don't sweat it!

Oh and I got some new pics up on my grow! Check it out when you have time.

 

[BBbubblegum]

Thinking about moving them back outside. I think they might continue to flower, the sunlight is close to 12/12

 

[Outlawd15]

If you mess with their environment a lot its worse. Be patient?

 

[BBbubblegum]

I guess I'll leave it. Picked up an ounce and found 1 single seed in it. Germing it now.

Did the cutting perk back up ?

It died and I got rid of it. I might try again later on in the grow

Check on the plant this morning. Not looking good at all. Leaves all twisted and dried out. The soil looked dry so i watered. Don't think she'll make it. I just want to try with a smaller plant. Learned alot just from this one.

 

[Gyroscope]

That sucks. I hate to hear it !

 

[BBbubblegum]

I know :/ I really messed this girl up.

 

[BBbubblegum]

The seed cracked open this morning, just waiting to see the root. Only problem is I'm out of soil and I don't have rockwool cubes. What to do, what to do.

 

[BBbubblegum]

So for the past 3 days alot has happened. Went to check on my outdoors and while transplanting, I snapped the stem. So i topped it and am currently cloning the top. It is going much better than the last attempt. Using a 14w CFL. No root bumps yet though. The seed has come up out of the soil and this is day 1 for it. At this point should I switch to 6x23w?

 

[Gyroscope]

One will do, but get it close. Like 4" at first then try to keep it around 3". Add more of them as needed.

They are 2-3". My worry is heat with the added lights.

 

[BBbubblegum]

The seedling stretched a little, which is fine because i had it in a weird position. I moved it directly under and it looks great now. The clone im 90% sure is male, I'll post some pictures before i destroy it. Now i don't feel as bad for killing the outdoor plant. Also replacing the 14w with 2x23w later today.

 

[BBbubblegum]

Replaced the 14w with 3x23w. Only about 2 inches away. Hopefully it will stop stretching.

How many hours a day is the lamp on ? I have mine on 24/0 to keep them compact.
