No I'm sayin that I think its still root bound recovering from the solo.cup..it was super close to side of the cup... started noticing that the leaves on that side were curling downwards as if they were root bound and had no more room to expand.. but since the transplant the roots should've found beautiful new perfect soil to expand into.. I'm just wondering the level of bound, or maybe the roots turned around .. it's def growing so I'm not too too concerned but the others are surpassing.. jul is gonna be super wirey.. n DL is def.gonna be purp purp purp.. I'm super excited for that.. i loves me sum purp.. n to grow it on my own ?!?!? It's bound to be rediculous if it stays fem.. literally..again thanks for helping me thru this bro.. Makin the mistakes learning researching.. good shit bro.. dispensery status..

hah no problem brother u know i got you. but dont worry about the possible prior root boundedness, probably not a big deal and it couldnt have gotten that bad to fuck it up. itll be fine but if u are going to veg for 2 months i would get 3 gal pots and transplant them a week or two before flowering

start lst asap bro, just took a closer look and those branches are gettin lanky, the thicker they are the longer it takes to train them down, and it gets harder not to break them

posted from my comp earlier n I guess it didn't go thru.. I'm gonna transplant BD tonight into a 3 gallon.. The outer most Branches n the past 3 days have gone from perky to super limp and hanging the rest of the plant looks perfect and healthy. I believe it doesn't have enough root below to keep it perky on the outer most branches.. i feel it needs more foundation below.. so after gym and paper I'ma transpl fine.. but ant it.. would it be better to transplant on off cycle or during light cycle.. they go dark at 6 pm central.. till midnight

I would transplant them at lights on so they have all day to stretch out the roots. outer most branches? the bottom ones? if they arent recieving enough light they will die off

HEARD.. Trim em off? I feel the new environment I'm bldg today and the extended light hood and total reflective room except floor should fix any light reaching issues... i still feel like transplant could help.. it's the guaranteed female.. so I want to male sure she has all the room in the world to get huge.. for she may be the super female I keep seperate..

Ok so I've been building my upstairs attic into my new grow room.. permanent .. it's a triangle tho.. not square .. i did all my math and come to the conclusion that I need 319 cfm.. i have an inline6" fan and carbon filter.. my question is this.. i understand the dynamics of air flow and what not so I have done the homework and purchased the proper gear . My only qualm is placement of intake ... it's an attic so the floor is uneven but all air tight.. again. Will post pics n the am ish.. to get a better read and better opinions of the observers.. but I'm thinkin I need to do two intakes n the rear and mount the exhaust and carbon filter to the tip of the triangle... The highest point of the room.. one intake? 2 intakes?? I feel.two intakes at the bottom left and right corners of the triangle and the exhaust being at the top or peak of said attic.. any input would be helpful. . The room is air tight - ish minus the door.. so I have to cut the holes for the intake and exhaust still ...

This is my first indoor soil grow with CFL lights. I have 3 plants in veg one planted last night after germination, and one germinating, so plan to have 5 plants total. Originally only wanted the three but now odds are even better and the more the time passes and the more information obtained from the interwebs and friends the better the process and quality becomes. my biggest is 12 days old and the other 2 are 10.. i transplanted Blue Dream last night, its an idica, growing rediculously strong, iva had em onm a 24 hour push for these 2 weeks and plan to continue for one more week then gonna start the 18/6. started Big Bloom and Grow big on the big ones at half strenth and half volume for starters as i had previously existing burns on BD's leaves and i figured it might be to over fertilization so ive flushed the soil and upon transplant have added the first Fox farm nutrients. It is looking amazing and super perky ! looking forward to seeing its growth to continue to be super luscious !!! now to the pics.. every thing was built with foil, fixtures , and poster board.. each fixture cost like 120.. took a little time and some ninjanuity but i gotst it done. and in no time at all. any and all information criticism and what have you are welcome adn needed and appreciated, knowledge me i am an open book !! now heres some pics !!
