A Little In... A Little Out..?

Hello RIU Family!
I'm not know by many or very much here, but I've been around for about a yr here n I have a pretty diverse 2nd grow under my belt. I wasn't planning on growing this yr, due to the fact I might be relocating, so I didn't wanna do anything heavy. I own a 4x4x6 tent n a 2.5x2.5x5 tent. I have 3 LEDs that are 415 true watt n I have a 450 true watt. Needless to say, I won't be using any at the moment! I'm growing Nirvana's Bubblicious fem n she's already 2 weeks n 3 days from seed. At the moment, she's sitting out in natures Sun as she's been since birth n in a fox farm happy frog +20% perlite add in. I'm allowing the rain water to get at her n when it's not raining, I mix a 5 gal bucket of water with 30ml of grow nutes n 15ml on the micro. Obviously I'm not feeding her the 5gals, n all the excess, about 4 1/2 gals, I feed to my blueberry, strawberry, n grapes. I was thinking of blasting her 24/0 with the liters, by allowing her regular day light n then putting her with the LED at nite. Preferably the 450 watt. I also have a NY Diesel from Dina Fem I believe, but if wrong I will correct. I just put her in the earth 2 day n the average response time for me is 3-4 days. Here is a pic of the Bubblicious. I hope y'all join the ride with me n watch this lady take of to complete my 3rd Official Grow!

Ok Grow Family....
Since my last post on Sunday, I have taken the Bubblicious out from the natural elements, cause I felt like it was raining a lil too often for my taste. Not 2 mention, there have been several down pours n I was truly afraid for the life of the lil lady. So, late Sunday nite, I took her from outside n brought her inside. I didn't set up the any of the tents yet, but I have been blasting her with 24/0 lighting. I would like to say or think that I have the light about 18-20 inches away from her n she's looking very well, besides her 1 burnt leaf that I would contribute to.... I really don't know! Lol. It's one of the round leaves that 1st pop out, so I'm truly not worried as of yet. I also watered her a sec ago, with organic-B vitamins, micro-nutes, n flora-nova grow nutes. I put 6 tsp.(not tbsp.) of each into 5 gals of water n then proceeded to feed her 32.. my mistake, 64oz. of the nute enriched water. As of right now, as you can tell, I'm not really measuring the ph of the water, due to the Fox Farm Happy Frog soil, that I believe truly buffs some of the ph. They soil is from my last grow, but it wasn't used for thru out the growing process. The soil is from some ladies that I had lost during the veg stage, due to my own negligence, so I cut the ladies down after I truly messed them up which was about a month into their growth cycle. So, I'm including a pic on how the Bubblicious is looking now, at 19 days from seed, or 2 wks n 5 days. Thank you to all those here who are watching this grow with me n I'm always looking for advice or just better know how on raising my lady up right! Btw, the NYDiesel hasn't popped up yet, but I'm betting on the next couple of days. Will keep ya posted .. Happy Growing n smoking pplz!!

Thank you Getaway!
I truly appreciate it n I'm really gonna need it!

Looks really good man keep it up nice node spacing

Thankx Jensen!
I just came inside from giving her a lil water, since the bucket felt light n it has been about 5 days ago. She is 28 days from seed 2 day. I have a question for you or anyone if ya don't mind. When would be an ideal time to either start to top/fim, lst, or any other technique? Once again, my apologies for taking the pic with the Grow light on, but I don't have any other lighting where the young lady is right now. I would really like to have this one go better than my last ones, although I though I did pretty decent 4 my 2nd round. As always, all tips are appreciated n I welcome any advice. Thankx 4 checking in on me n keep growing pplz!

I topped on the third node and didnt like the results on my seeds i did the 4th on one had much thicker branching just needed that extra node and you dint count the first cotyledons or the leaves after that. Thatvwas a super silver haze i noticed much bigger leaves on later topped

once you top give your plant time to recoop then what you could do is tie down thebtop two and let the bottom tops catch up and just continue training it like that. Plant sends hormones to its top most colas

Hello everyone!
I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted, but I’ve been giving mycology n mushrooms a try, so I haven’t been paying much attention to my ladies. I mean, I water weekly or when needed, but as far as manicuring n trimming n overall making them look like the best ladies they possibly can be, I honestly haven’t been doing so! Still, all in all, the ladies are continuing to grow none the less. I’m not sure what I did wrong or didn’t do, but I’ve stunted the growth of the LSD-25 early, n she never recovered or gotten any bigger. I also think I’ve done the same to the Mephisto’s sour bubbly, cause it hasn’t grown very tall n very few bud sites. With the same feedings as well as care, my NY Diesel is kicking major ass! I mean, she’s growing tall n budding nicely n even the clone that I’ve made of her! In all actuality, the clone seems to b even larger than the plant I chopped her from, so go figure! I’ve also been checking the trichromes to see if any of them are ready yet, but I feel it’s gonna be another couple of weeks on the bubblicious. Plz, forgive for the pics that I’m posting. I know they aren’t in the greatest of shape, or look so, but they are hanging on! Thankx for reading n reply if ya like. Thank you as always!-this is the bubblicious-this is the Kali x China -this is the NY Diesel clone-this is the original NY Diesel-this is the sour bubbly.
In my defense, I don’t have any heaters going n it’s very cold on my side of the globe, especially at nite. Hence the reason that the bubblicious has taken on a deep purple color n severe discoloration in the leaves. I’m sure deficiencies play a big part in the color of the leaves as well, but I truly believe it’s mainly due to the low temps at nite. During the day, the max is 60F, n at nite, I’m sure the lowest has been in the mid to upper 30s n that’s Fahrenheit as well. Thankx again for taking a peek all! Much obliged..
