it really shows, you should have some amazing yields. what are you doing about co2?

Nothing at the moment. The next thing I need to get is an inline fan for the reflector so I can get the light even closer. What are the benefits of co2?

plants use it to breathe, more c02 increases your yield substantially from what i've heard. i'm about to go to the store to pick up yeast sugar and gallon containers i guess it puts out carbon dioxide cheap and easy to get a larger yield

So here are some updated photos. They're really getting big and bushy. It
looks like they're wanting to flower but I want to wait another week or 2. I'd
love some input on the matter. I was planning on having this crop cured and
ready to smoke about a week or 2 before christmas.

Let me know how that goes cause I might try it next time.

Is your light attached to those plastic hangers? If so, I'd recommend going to Home Depot or some other hardware store and picking up some chain and s-hooks. Most will have a section where you can cut custom lengths and it is pretty cheap too.

Other than that one thing, looks pretty good to me. :)

It was but I have actual light hangers now. That pic was taking a while ago. I can adjust it easy. Which is real good because they grow about a 1/2 inch a day, both up and out. The nodes are real close together.

Wow those plants look great, I don't think they could look any healthier than that.


I will watch this with interest as I am currently germinating 2 White Widow (fem) an will be starting 8 more soon, I am just about to harvest my fist crop which was G13s.

Feel free to browse my journal, any comments an suggestions are welcome.

Thanks a bunch. It seems though that everytime I feed them they droop down and start to do the claw thing. I know I'm not over watering. I give them 500ml every third day. This is only the second time I fed them in that pic but today I look and the claw is there again. Any insight?

its really not that bad a sign if they droop a little. they look really healthy and the reason they droop is cause they take on a lot of water and get heavier, but use it quickly and spring back up, so its not necessarily a case of overwatering.. grow looks great so far!

Looking good man. That is kind of weird about the droopiness, I haven't ever heard of plants drooping when fed, usually it is the opposite. I'd say that if they still look green and healthy, then you shouldn't worry about it :)

We seem to be on about the same timeline as well. I'm looking to flower mine when they get about 15" tall, I don't want them getting too tall. I have been hoping to get it harvested and cured by early Dec, but I don't even know how many females I have yet! The suspense is killing me!!:D

I agree with sb101, the drooping is just where they take on water.
The signs I look for is, if the leaf stem is drooping then you need to water, when the leaf itself is drooping/curling it's just from holding water.
Some plants - usually sativas do get curly leaves. If you see Alice in my journal, her leaves are curled right under some even curl full circle.
I don't know what it is but I am not the only one with this and the plant seems to be doing fine.

I agree with sb101.
Your leaves are just drooping with the extra water they have taken on.
Some plants - usually sativas - will just have curly leaves.
I don't know why but it doesn't seem to harm them.
My Alice has leaves that curl all the way round!!
I wouldn't worry, your plants look great.
Feel free to browse my journal, I will be harvesting soon.

I was thinking about waiting till around 20" but I don't know if I'll have the room for them. 40" is really my max at this point until I can hook the light to the ceiling. Right now its attached to the bar all the hangers are on.
