Hi Everybody,
These were started under 270W of CFL (9x30w) in a 50/50 mix of warm & cool bulbs (I would have used all cool white, but I had originally planned to flower under these same lights and am too cheap to buy extras.
At 4 weeks old, I upgraded to a 400w HPS, at around 5-6 weeks the plants were topped, and at 7 weeks the branches were pruned (very lightly) and trained to a horizontal profile to increase light absorption. They have been fed a half strength formula of GH Maxigro every alternate feeding since around 3-4 weeks & I am transitioning to a full strength formula of GH Maxibloom. From the 4 individual plants, I count about 20-30 unobstructed tops. The whole mass is ~30" in diameter.
They went on 12/12 2 days ago and 3 of the 4 are showing definite female characteristics, the fourth I'm still unsure about.
Light has been ~14" from the plant canopy. Temperatures have ranged 77-82 during daytime, with a few spikes up to 84, and ~65-70 during the night. Soil ph is ~7.0 Water ph is 6.5. Humidity has been 40-50% throughout.
This is my first grow, so any advice, comments would be tremendously appreciated.
