0611170134.jpg this is my wonder woman 2 weeks from seed but shes three inches shorter than all the rest still has six nodes tho. Think i should top her and see if she takes off?

Ph has been between 6.2 and 6.8 everytime i checked it. Only using organic nutes and rain water. But i do think i messed up and over watered her. Made her kind of droopy but i put a fan on her and shes perked back up now.

Looks like over watering imo. I have a same size plant, same f**k up, lucky for me she's in an air pot, so she's perking up nicely.
As will yours... :bigjoint:

yeah im trying the air pots next run. I keep hearing good things about them. But i ordered some 20 gallon fabric pots that are lined with plastic. Doesnt make much sense to me, i should cut the lining out right?

Hey mate!

Have the same problem, though some strains just grow really short and compact.
Unless you have grown this strain before but even then it's relative because every plant is different.
I topped mine when they were slightly bigger than yours after 3 weeks basically and they got a massive boost in growth, still pretty small for their age but definitely triggered, also they then didn't grow in heigh but much more to the side due to LST.

Good luck!

Thanks man, do you know anything about fabric grow bags? I ordered two 20 gallon bags and when i got them they have a plastic bag like liner on the inside of them. Im just wondering if im supposed to remove them or leave them in? Lol

Maybe send a link to where you purchased from or the brand? I've never seen a cloth bag have plastic inside of it. Cut it out.

20 gal cloth bags!? what are u growing trees? Seems a little over kill unless it's for outdoor.

Hey again!

Never used a fabric grow bag before but I can definitely tell you, you're better off removing the plastic. Many outdoor growers I know grow in large growing bags like yourself and they have definitely always gotten rid of plastic, on the a rare occasions that they actually have had plastic on the inside.
But I doubt it would be a major setback if you don't cut the liner out especially when its already inverted into the fabric so either way you should be good.

I would check it out first; the plastic may well be breathable, which is advantageous imo.
I wrap my fabric pots (15 gallon) loosely with mylar, helps to keep the moisture in, but doesn't prevent any air pruning of the roots...oh and it reflects the light, which is always good :-D

Um can u post a pic of your set up I am a lil confused if your being serious or not. Do you wrap your body in tin foil when you go into water it too? Fabric pots wrapped in Mylar? Doesn't that just complete defeat the purpose of cloth pots all together? 15 gallon pots indoors ffs i wanna see these monsters your growing. Post a pic.

I'll post a pick laters.
I just drape a length of mylar sheet around the pot, and clip it to the top of the fabric pot.
The mylar moves about a bit in the fan breeze, so the fabric pot is still getting air over it, so it keeps on doing it's air pruning thing.

I ordered them from walmart.com they are advertised as tomato bags. Yeah its an outdoor grow. I have family members who grow giants in 100 gallon pots 20 isnt really that big.
