Hey everyone this is my first grow, I started with 3 seeds, got 2 males. My plant was in veg for 28 days, I know a little young to start flowering, but I'm kinda experimenting to see what works best for me and wanted to get started. Initiated flowering stage with a 24 hour dark period. She started showing signs of sex after 6 days. I am now 33 days into 12/12 and I was hoping to get some input on what could be done to help her along. I am using MG soil in a 3 gallon pot(its all I could get my hands on)I am using sam's choice deep feeding bloom nutes. 10-52-10 I water with distilled water. I use at full strength with one gallon water every 8 days after fully soaking the soil. Appx 4000 lumens sq/ft. 2700k soft white flouros.These pics were taken about a week ago, I will try to update soon. Any help is appreciated:wall:


....In the process of making new grow space...

They look good and healthy for your first grow bro. The 1 thing I would definitely recommend is mollasses. Go to your local grocery store and pick up some UNSULPHUERED BLACKSTRAP MOLLASSES. Use it during floering with your water and nutes every watering and watch your buds swell up 20-30% and get super sticky. Start off with 2 teaspoons per gallon and gradually move up to 2 tablespoons per gallon:bigjoint:

Sup Fc nice looking ladie u got what strain is she looks indica 28 dayz veg 33 flower makes her over 2 months nice. how long do u have to veg to get a oz off 1 plant? know it might depend on the strain but about how long?

what r u type of seed u growing bag seeds or seed bank seed?
u use soft white the whole grow isnt that redish color?
soft white = red light
day light= blue light ?
sorry im a noob :) still learning things

thanks smo king, I always thought molasses was just to change taste...always good to learn something new.

I am using bagseed, it was from some decent bud, but I don't know what kind. I do believe shes mainly indica. I'm not for sure how long, I am only expecting an ounce from mine(wanna guess low). I've only helped with a few outdoor grows for a friend, not too much experience with smaller plants.


No, I use the bright white flouros(5500k?) for the veg... I usually use a couple less lights for veg. so when I switch to flower I can increase the light intensity. Light intensity and color change will help to speed the transition to flower.

The blue were bad pics, like I said, I wish it looked that way, but those were taken at at weird angle/light and tinted the bud sites blue, looked nice though. I took these pics at the same time as the ones that look blue. I think its a little under 2 ft tall, but I haven't measured, will let you know when I do.

ok, just switched my plan to an 11/13 cycle...I've seen a lot of people talk about it and decided to try for myself...

I expect an overall reduction of yield with faster maturity...

I have some more clones coming and I am trying to make room for them...

I will update with some pics later.

well, all is still going pretty good, i've had lots of leaves yellowing(using up the nutrients) and have pruned quite a bit of them off the plant.

Although I still don't know what strain it is, I am guessing it is (grape ape x?) As one of the 3 seeds I originally started had come from some grape ape I had, but I have no idea what kind of plant it crossed with....Pistils and leaves are turning purple.

Will put some pics up later today after I put her in the light.
