I would have let them veg for another 3-4 weeks before you went and put them into flower....especially if it was a good strain. I wouldn't want to cheat myself out of clones from good genes. Better luck with the sour diesel aero grow

Actually, homerbud, plants don't need any sleep. Originally it was believed some dark period was beneficial, however Ed Rosenthal and Jorge Cervantes both tell us that studies have shown a constant light cycle kicks the plant off to a faster and more vigorous growth than allowing a dark period. Also ,there is not "photoperiod shock", a plant may be allowed to go straight from 24/0 veg toa 12/12 flowering cycle with no problems whatsoever.

first ill start out with the main setbacks of my first grow.

planted them in some clean pots in a half merical grow half compost mixture,(its was all i had on hand).

i started them under 3 floro tubes at 24/0 then when they were about 6 inchs tall they started to wilt cause of the crappy lighting

my only other option at the time was putting them out side, so i did what i had to do
security isnt much of a deal for me cause i have a liense and they were pretty small and unnoticeabe

I figured they would die but gave them a good chance and they survived,
however since they were outside and i live in orange county it was only getting about 10 hours of light a day, and it was kinda cold most of the time and there growth was stunted in about a month they only grew 1 or so inches.

once i finaly got my 400watt hps light i set it up under there

then after comming home from school the next day i noticed that both of my plants had showed there sex, but i had the light set for 18/6, but luckly both of the plants were ladys. but since they had already started growing hairs i put them into flowering but since they were stunted they were only about 6 inches tall.

for ferts im just mixing advanced nutrience solution and 1/4 into the water, i have it for the grow im starting pretty soon.

I started flowering december 5th

im pretty shure most of the wilting was from the light being to close, at first it was only about 1/8 inches away,
temps are not to high and i have a fan going on them

also i was misting them untill about 2 days ago when i read a thread that said it was harmfull to the plants, so i stoped and they seem to be doing a little better.

anyways here they are...
im seriously amazed they are still alive i have messed up alot with these
