whats up everyone! i am back with my first real indoor grow after my outdoor attempt got fubar'ed by animals big enough to tear my fence down.. anyways these girls were forced into flowering at a very young age (not even two weeks old) all are really good bag seeds, out of 27 plants 17 were girls and one hermie. i am using foxfarm soil mixed with bat and peruvian seabird guano, dolimite and worm castings. all plants are under 400w hps lighting and today they have been out of the dirt since Dec 22 (today jan 31) for being forced at such a young age how do they look? everything seems to be going perfect but i am a little inexperienced when it comes to serious grows. i am using Foxfarm red bottle and ionic bloom nutes. how do you think they look? what can i do to increase yield or bud density? what the deal with molasis? is dry ice a good alternative to Co2? please give me any feedback even negative. it is all apreciated!!!! thank you so much! i will post new pics as you request them. the ones below (with the wet leaves) were took this morning. oh yea and that reminds me.. foilege feeding, is that good or bad?

First off, they look great! Molasses is used usually like 1 tsp / gallon to add density to the buds & I hear it works pretty well. I'm using sugar daddy which has the same benefits as molasses & seems to really pack on the weight. Dry ice is not a good way to make co2. It's expensive and sugar / yeast mixture in a 2 liter would be cheaper. (or a co2 tank & regulator). Don't know anything about foliage feeding other than it's not done much in flowering. I think it's mostly for vegetative growth but again, I'm not really sure.

the sugar and yeast thing is nice but can be very messy! The mixture is 1 packet of yeast and 2 cups of sugar and warm water, it get's real sticky if it bubbles over and makes A nice mess.

Foliar feeding can be very benifical, and is done durring veg! Do not spray ur buds as they will mold and get nasty.

thanks man!! i have been told by a very experienced grower that he sprays his buds when they are in early production with a very hott mix of nutes.. which i kinda thought was crazy but he swears on his life it is doing amazing things for his crop. i am going to take your advice and not do it anymore (i have only sprayed them maybe three times) my buds seem to be at a stand still... is there anything i can do to make this process faster? with the sugar/yeast things do i just make this mixture and put it down on the bottom with my plants or hang it above them? thanks again!!!

Foxfarm are my favorite i use 1 bag ocean forest to one bag light warrior and then after one weak per gallon of soil i start the fox farm feeding schedule. Mollassas is used for a carb boost just once after the final flush and never foliar feed a plant with flowers it is sure to cause mold.
