Some strains will show pistils before you put them into 12/12, however, these are not the pistils that form buds. They are called pre-flowers. My OG Kush plants started having them around the same time as yours and it is definitely not something to worry about.

You may not know it but you coming to this site and asking for advice on that is one of the smartest decisions you will ever make. The first setup you had with the incandescent bulbs was screaming fire. Luckily, you came to the right place. RIU has helped me immensely over the years, although...

When it comes to fluorescent lights, it is pretty much impossible to have too much light because they emit so few lumens. Just so you know what I mean, my MH light puts out 75,000 lumens and my HPS puts out 95,000. Get those lights as close as you can without getting the plant too hot. If...

For 6 days old, that is a good height. It should be getting into vegetative stage soon and you will see a lot more growth. Don't judge by height alone because you want short distances between the nodes. If your plant starts to stretch(long distances between nodes) then you either have your...

Try to get that temp down about 5 degrees and get that humidity up if you can. Humidifiers don't cost much but if money is a problem, soak a towel and put it on the floor or something. Replace it with a clean towel every day or two. You want around 60% humidity for vegetative growth and...

How high do you have your light? What is the temp and humidity in the room? They definitely look stunted but you will be surprised how quickly they will grow with more fan leaves. When the plants are big enough, put more soil on. The roots will grow up. Don't worry about covering the main...

If you are able to post a picture, it would help out a lot better for an accurate answer. It is very early in the growing season for many latitudes so as long as it looks a healthy green, do not worry about the size. Growing outdoors takes many more months than growing indoors, but the sun is...

It will work with both soil and hydro. Growing hydro has its benefits but it is not nearly as forgiving as soil and simple mistakes can cost you your whole crop which is why I recommend growing in soil first before moving on to hydro but the choice is all yours. You can plant the rockwool...

You can go by the vitalink feeding schedule here: http://www.vitalink.eu/en/_guides/max_schedule.pdf Just remember to start out with about 1/4 strength and work your way up to see how your plants will respond. Are you looking to grow in soil or hydro? If this is your first go at growing, I...

Go with some feminized OG Kush. Easy to grow and lots of THC. I got 10 seeds from Royal Queen Seeds and all 10 germed and were all female. I did not purchase them through RQS though, got them through Castle Seeds. Took a week and a half to get here and 10 of them was $88 total.

Don't think of it so much as something you need right now, think of it as a goal to work towards. We all have them and the setup we have is never enough. Just so you know, growing marijuana can become quite addictive.

Then get a bigger pot that your pot will fit in and fill in the voids with soil.

Add your nutes before checking your PH. Nutrients will almost always change your PH quite a bit. Mine lower my ph like crazy. Transplant, flush, get your ph set and you will see much, much better results.

Are you using both the Humboldt and the Optimum? Also, your soil already has plenty of nutrients so be careful with adding more. I honestly think the very first thing you should do is get a nice nursery pot, 5-7 gallons, and transplant it. Your soil is drying out too quickly with that pot and...

Looking good. You just have to wait to see. Worse comes to worse, you can just top it but I don't think you will have any problems at all with that nice cut. Be prepared for a nice looking plant.

Which Humboldt and Optimum do you have? Your PH seems good and maybe bring it down to 6.4 or 6.3 seeing as the soil ph is a little over 7. The soil will bring your water PH up a couple of points right where it should be. You are testing water ph after you add nutes, right? As for the...

I am most curious about the temp right near the window because regardless of the temperature outside, it can get very hot right near a window on a sunny day. So, you water with 6.5PH adjusted water? What is the PH of your runoff? If you have the extra cash, invest in a 250W HID and you will...

Definitely need to get rid of that pot. Light is no good for roots. Also, like Milovan said, looks like you need some cal-mag. Couple questions: 1. What is the PH of your soil and the water you are giving them? 2. What types of nutrients are you giving, how much, and how often? It looks...

Definitely do some LST and tie them down. You can also run an oscillating fan over the top of the canopy try and get it pointing up a little into the hood so you can get that heat away from the tops.

HID's will do that. It looks awesome, especially for your first grow. I hope you plan on doing more plants for your next grow with that nice 400W light. Plenty of light for more. How high do you have your light from the canopy?
