so we're giving it another go with some bagseed right now... we want to wait to try and get a hydro unit to grow the rest of our widow.
HAHA, white wydro so heres the little one, a week from seed in the first two pics, and 11-12 days from seed and beginning LST

we're using dirt, from the dollar store that we left outside for months It had a happy little worm inside it so we gave her a new home and we've been using a bit of molasses and two 26 watt cfl's that we fixed in a reflector from a light that broke. I used wire at the third node i think and just u shaped it and stuck it right in the dirt, for the second one another node up, I used a plastic piece of something that had a tag on it from a piece of clothing. sorry the last pictures aren't great our camera broke, along with the laptop screens of both our computers and the car getting towed for being unregistered. this plant is helping us, "always look on the bright side of life"

yeah, she's the shit. prettiest little green thing I've seen in person. it's amazing how close the nodes are to eachother compared to our last grow. and she's growing so fast, we see a new leaf set every day. I also wanted to mention that she's under 24 hours of light... and from what i see, although it was two different strains, is that 24 hours of light really gets them off to a good start.

nah, we've been tying her down with a couple wires, that's why she's so close to the ground we've been watering like every other day when the top of the soil gets pretty dry.

you want the soil to get pretty dry between watering's to avoid root rot, fungus, & bacteria. remember just because the top of the pot is dry doesn't mean the bottom isn't soaked.

just replying to get this back into my rollitup... anyway we transplanted yesterday, and I think she's in shock today. hopefully she'll recover quickly she was outgrowing her pot, and her roots were all over

Nice looking grow there I'm trying LST as well with my little babies, though yours looked like they were further along than mine

The new transplant will help, mine really grow noticeably from the transplant I just did

yea they should be fine, however be real easy on them, if they went through a bad shock it may take a while to recover. Looking good as usual

Just a quick addition... we have her right now in an attic, that's pretty much exposed to the elements, there is a roof but it's maybe 40-50 degrees in there. i see her turning a little bit purple on the tops of the new leaves. I don't mind at all having a purple plant, and I'm not sure if this is a purple strain but when we were smoking it, I noticed the bud was of a light neon blue green color. anyway, just looking for some feedback. Hope it's okay. also being in a cold area makes it easy to keep the lights within 2 inches of the plant.

so, we transplanted her, unfortunately she underwent a little root trauma. but she's all good now. so we turned the light's off for 24 hours and set the timer for flower. changed two light bulbs to soft white 100 watt equiv. and added four 18 watt small tubes. like twelve inches each. plus it has a pretty bad ass reflector. that's pretty much it... she looks real nice. I don't wanna have to kill her.
