Greetings!
Apologies in advance if I have posted in the wrong part of the forum , basically I'm on day 34 of my first grow and just looking for some feedback . Hopefully your combined wisdom can provide me with tips , if its looking ok , if its too small etc .
Im running 2x 35w CFL bulbs , light soil mixed with perlite . Nutes provided by miracle grow diluted into 1 ltr I give it about 500ml a week since day 21. Erm...don't really know what else to say I don't have fans as its the only plant I have yet. It's in an airing cupboard ...last Monday I started 18-6 light schedule.

Thanks for reading .

I like It ! I think i'm a little jealous about that one !
Maybe a little smaller for a 34 day old indoor plant on a 18/6 process, but it's really pretty ! :leaf: Cheers mate

Ok, you switch to 12/12 when the plant attend it's maximum length !
And since the Blue thai can reach 3 meters (yes i'm serious), I let you choose what time you switch !! It generally depends on how big you want the plant to be ! :bigjoint:

Nice looking lil plant there. Are you planning to take some cuttings from her?
What type of light are you using?
I would veg her at least another month before flipping to bloom.
The longer you keep her in 18/6, the bigger she will get...
.. so when you do switch to 12/12 you will get a bigger yield.

Yeah I was planning on 12-12 at day 60 it's now day 34 so Defo another month before the switch . Thanks man . I'm using regular old CFL lights 35 w with a 175 w equiv per bulb so two of them. And yeah Defo taking cuttings , she has literally been a dream my wife went into labour the day I switched to 18-6 so I was at the hospital a lot was worried but she just kept growing. They dude who sold me the seed said literally his fave seed to grow from they are a very low maintainence grow .

Maybe 50ml as 500ml is excessive, you will need more bulbs 2 at 6500k and 2 at 2700k, and a small pc type fan, how else do you think it breathes?

Tip: Add another 35w and you should see an increase in growth, are you using MG all purpose soluble (if yes: I used the same and it seemed to keep them green )and what strain is it... what type of seed: regular or feminized?

Looks like a healthy strong young plant. Don't be afraid to top it as others are recommending, it will open up more light for the plant as it grows.

I use Mg all purpose , dilute quarter capful into a lite of water and was giving 500 ml each Monday but just been told hats too much . Erm..it's a Dinafem blue Thai feminized clone seed. Will Defo consider another bulb . Do you think it would make it till the end with just two per plant ? With a combined equiv w of 350w?
