Hi all! I've just completed day one of flowering, and about yo start day two. I wished I could have vegged a bit longer, but space was starting to be of concern. I have a photo attached, and was wondering, a) how much bigger can i expect her to get b) how to continue LST during flowering,c) any advice/critiques/compliments?
Here is my rundown:
WW in mg soil, under 250 hps, LST like crazy, each stalk is at least 15 in, added molasses with two out of last 3 watering...before that, just pure, Ph water...I've recently purchased the 6 pack of FF nuts, but have not added yet...I guess another question is : with the mg soil, do I add the FF nuts, when the leaves start to yellow ( lower leaves, that is)...also, what strength would be ideal with the mg soil? I know there is FFsched, but u assume that is for FFsoil...anyways, thanks for any input! :leaf:IMG_20111002_183731.jpgIMG_20111002_184720.jpg

you can continue to lst until finished if you want. without some kind of genetic reference cant really tell how tall she will continue to grow. some plants continue for 4-6 weeks into flower stretching and stretching. some stop after 1 or 2. I would back off the nutes for now. mg soil is hot and will provide for a bit. i would only use 1/4 strength of the liquid ff and maybe only use the powders at 1/8 rec amount in week six. the stuff is strong. good luck and keep the photos coming!

yeah, those are going to at least double in size in the next two-3 weeks. They will show sex at that point. I used to use a 250 also and used the same method. Topped then Lst. Then after the stretch in the beginning of flower I would Lollipop, Basically trimming most stuff off bottom foot to foot and a half. Each plant ended with 6-10 equal height colas. As far as lsting, It is going to be tough to do any more bacause you dont have the width

Well, I can't complain...I wanted a pretty big plant for my first grow, and I got what I asked for...at least double? Damn...that means about 30 in each...almost 3 feet...lol...looks lime I may have to do some adjusting of the closet...this is a good bump in the road, no? Bigger plant means bigger yeikd, no?

What kind of yield did you end up with? What about other mj products such as hash or oil?
