Im only growin one plant cas i dont want to fuck up my other seeds so im takin it slow.

she's a month old? she looks really healthy, but very short. Not that that isa bad thing, because she also looks very bushy for being so small. Lol it looks like you cut the top off of a really nice plant and put it in a pot. looks great though, if your taking it slow so you can save seeds, i'd give her some more time then clone off her, and get your second batch, she's gonna be bushy enough for sure. Lighting sounds like plenty, as far as feeding goes, just keep on eye on how she responds, " is she growing slow, are the leaves getting nute burn". More isn't always better, and not quite enough, wont usually kill anything.

Looks like a high perlite soil mix? I watered my plants once a day with nutes every other. With the high perlite mix, you may have to water alittle more, the perlite doesn't hold much. See how the soil feels at the top, and bottom of the pot. If its staying moist your prolly ok, if its getting dry increase!

I wasn't tryin to say she wasn't growing well, just short which indoors isn't a bad thing. A good light the right distance away like you have will help keep a short plant alittle shorter, it doesn't have to stretch for the light. She is deffinatly bushy as hell though!

Its staying that small because he has good high powered lights on it, it doesn't have to reach. Look how bushy it is in the middle.

I looked up and figured out how many lumens you need for each plant thet said somewhere around 5000 per plant i have a HPS that puts out 30,000 lumens then i have 3 CFL's that put out 5,000 lumens and three floro-tubes that are at 6,000 so i have 41,000 lumens on one plant after i harvest her im goin to grow 3-4.


if someone could help me learn how to clone plz let me know

Cloning is reasonably simple... look in the faq and follow the steps... basically take a cutting, diagonal cut the stem, dip in clonex or something similar... then put into rockwool cubes and into a humid dome. Then once or twice a day spray the roof of the dome with ph neutral water... simple.

I recently bought some super girl beans... yours are lookin nice! i havent germinated yet though.

about your watering question. water when the pot feels light. thats the best advice i can give. if your usin a half gallon at a time, id say probably every 3 days. but that is a sick bush, nice job. it may be short, but it probably has 5 times the foliage and branches these guys have that say theres is taller

water not very often, let it dry out completely then water it. that's basically the easiest way to do it.

Tommy is right. Water when the pot feels light. Check how it feels after you water her, then use that as a measuring point in terms of weight. You want the roots to grow by searching for the water a little more.
