whats the setup?
how many plants?
perpetual or single run?
what lights?
any plant restrictions?
organic or hydro?
those things can influence what type of grow would be best under the circumstances
I only have 2 plants in there and they are just inside my extra closet in my office area. Its a pretty big closet and my arms don't touch side to side. I will eventually move them when it is not winter and below 0 out and will have plenty of room.
Not sure what the perpetual or single run means.
It has CFL lights not sure on watts. it has 4 bulbs.
Not sure as far as plant restrictions? im not 100% on that one either.
organic or hydo cant answer either lol

im so new to this and feel like a loser haha

Its in happy frog soil with old age grow nutrients. IF that helps any.

no I get ya man, but not for that size/age of plant, I've personally grown plants twice the size in those size of pots, organically no less (organics like more room than chelated grows)

means to take off that top two leaves, it will make the plant grow two colas instead of one, do it twice and you make 4 colas, three times for 6... etc, etc.
you can train a plant to have many colas, but it requires more vege time, and a training technique, trellis, cage, etc
also takes up a LOT more room too
Im not to worried about the veg time. If it takes longer. Do i just pick them off?

nah, not a loser at all
don't sweat it
so perpetual means two rooms, a veg and a flower, so you are perpetually flowering something
plant restrictions are if you are in a legal state that only allows lets say four plants, which would be a good reason to train them more to get you more yield per plant
let me look to see what old age grow nutes are

Okay, I only have the 1 room for now. I live in oregon and I think you can have up to 4 per person and there is 2 of us.

the nutrients you chose seem to be organic, that's a good start for sure
I also recommend using a HID setup, that way you can use the heat it creates to not only warm your booty but your plants too

Thank you dude
anytime man, most of the organic peeps are pretty cool too, very little trolling in that area
plus the stickys are a good area to start with to get the concept down
basicly its ALL predicated on a good microbial soil.
past that a monkey can grow
dial in a good compost based, meal based, soil and past that all you need is a blumat
almost idiot proof past that
hardest thing is creating good fresh humus
which ain't hard

Im not sure when to transplant these into new pots. So I notices the leaves are getting pretty big and going over the edges. Do I just leave it or would it hurt to but it in like a 5 gallon bucket? OR when should I do that and what do I need to do right now lol. Thanks guys! I really appreciate the help here!


ALSO is there anything I do to make it taller, or is that just how its going to grow?
It was planted on 12*18*16!!!
Well, its difficult to say not knowing what size those starter pots are. - are they one pint or one quart? Personally I would go by how often they are drinking their water up - if they are needing water every other day, then it may be time to pot up, but I would go to an intermediate size first - one gallon or three gallon depending on the size of your pot..
