Looking great bud! About to say, your soil always looks bone dry. Remember to saturate the pots with every watering (fill up pot with water completely so there is a couple inches of water above the dirt layer) This will ensure every bit of soil gets moisture. Then after this watering style just dip your finger 2 inches into the soil in about 4 or 5 places. If all pokes were bone dry. Time to water =] Btw Any word on nutrients? Your babies need nitrogen but I want to make sure your dosing is perfect so we dont hurt em =O

Ah i will keep that in mind when i water them today
And i went out and bought sum worm castings as they are high in nitrogen....im worried about the other fertilisers as if i come into trouble with a ph problem il freak out coz i cant let anything happen to them now....the worm castings i hope will be good cause they wont burn them and can be used to fertilise them by sprinkling sum on the top of the soil and then watering

Right so.....there are what seems to be pre flowers on my biggest baby so it is officially a GIRL
YAY!!
But anyway i read a step by step guide on supercropping (https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/288113-step-step-how-super-crop.html)
So i decided i would try it because it can be done at start of flowering or a week or two before...since i do not know if my light gonna be mounted today i decided i would just try it out...i have no idea if ive done it rite tho....below are pics

Oh yes in pic four above after taking the pic i went back to the plant and pinched it a tad bit harder not letting it snap but felt the stem get a bit squishy and it looks more like the plants do in that guide...so i really hope this method helps them yield a bit more and not grow too tall

Sigh....a depressing update.....this guy messing me around and he has all the things i need to mount my light in order to flower and now the major issue is that my one plant is so tall it nearly touching the light...im really confused at why its not overheated up there guess im just lucky.
But im either going to have to try get that light higher temporarily or try tie down the big one a bit as ive tried doing...but in 3 days im flowering cause i need these buds by december

I've never supercropped so I cant help with that =[ Plants are looking great now!!! The soil switch sure helped. What water do you use now? Distilled or Tap? Now with the height problems... Just make a stair type of thing or just use boxes or crates to life the lower plants even with the rest.
Look in pic: cant tell well, but plants in back aren't crated up so high to be even with the others

All good man Ive just been using normal tap water but I let it stand out so that all the chlorine evaporates.
And my problem is more the issue that i need to lift the light higher not the plants....im worried that when they flower they will all end up reaching the light which is not wanted until i can get it mounted so that i can control the height of the light. At the moment the 1 plant is nearly touching the light.
Did u mean i should try raise the light as high as i can get it then use that step type method?

Well what stops you from raising the light right now? Btw, since I told you to keep the soil more moist... have you noticed more consistent growth?
