long story short, i told my gf i will stop growing as soon as our baby boy is here.

he will be here no l8er 20th august. thats 6 weeks.

i was vegging for few days but another story short is that i decided to 'nuke' them and flower them. so now i have 6 125w CFL's on them. 2 veg, 4 flowering lights. they have been under these light conditions for 9 days.

the strains i have are different. i have a strain called Trance which is i think a short period flowering one.

i also have White widow and some Ata Tundra growing. some ata tundra is growing well and keeping up with the trance but i think the widow is going to take so much longer.

also i have a bag seed and a feminised super silver haze germing, they should be ready 2night.


so i have 6 weeks left, even if i do put them straight into flower i wont have enough time. the widow wont be done and the SSH wont be as i think they are both 10 weeks flowering?

what should i do? or can i still flush them, hang, dry, cure them etc at 6 weeks?

thanks for ur input.

EDIT: also id like to take a clone of each. will i still be able to do this? i forgot if u have to do it early or late. :s

sure ive read widow is a fairly long flowering strain. dunno bout the rest....but id say u ain't got the time!
on that note, if u only have 6 weeks, why u wanting to take a clone?

i know someone who would be willing to buy a clone of each strain. so i will probably sell them 1 of each if poss

so is it a joint (no pun intended) venture, with the op being at his gaff?
or has having a wee bairn put the brakes on smoking full stop?

What?

i just wanna know if i can flower them for a shorter time than what they say. can i still pick the bud or will it not be mature enough?

u could harvest early but the smoke won't be as high a quality as it would if the plants went full term

sup dixie, that rite never talk bout plant club :joint::joint:

ya u can switch the lights during flowering to off10/14 that will speed up the process, yield will b reduced a bit tho as dixie said...

well now u have........ start with 12/12 for first 4 weeks then do to 10/14.. the days are getting shorter faster so the plant will ripen faster.. thats science bro....... honestly it works

yer im not saying it doesnt, im just sayin i not heard of it b4.

i should be ok. i got 14 plants (4 diff strains) under 6 CFLs. im guessing 10(regular seeds) most of em are gonna be male anyway.

but my Trance, Ata tundra are 6 and 7 weeks flower. White widow is 6-8 and super silver haze is 10-11 :( i might just see if i can stretch them out, if not i will introduce them to 10/14

thx for that info

alright mate did all those ata tundra germinate.
i think the ata's were developed for colder climates is there any where you could put them to finish them after ya six weeks is up.
they dont need alot of heat you could finish um out side under natural light.

alright m8. they all germinated. well.. couple of them cracked but didnt do anything after that.

i had to chuck 5 away last night bcoz the seeds were burnt/not growing for one reason or another. my fault.

so i still have 5 ata tundra left, 1 fem trance which is coming along the best, 1 fem white widow which is also doin well and my super silver haze and bag seed should have germinated 2night.

gonna post a pic of the trance in a minute.
