well i think about things a touch this morning, for quite a few many hours. I'm trying to ponder why i grow perpetually when i do not change my strains :D So i think i'm going to look at really improving my veg setup and then doing a 1 plant at a time 3 tote big ass scrog, none of this farting about with a couple weeks veg and such. Also means that i'll have ured bud more often than not, at present i'm lucky for a harvest to alst a month :D i say that i don't smoke much, but i rolled up a big joint of oil and cheese at 4am and it had me going nicely till noon :D

Ideally don't mist your girls in flower if you can help it. As you say, you don't want a mould attack now, i just had my first ever and it left me a bit annoyed :D

Just ground up 76g of bud for a hash run :)

I don't think they've even started to flower yet have they? If they haven't, I've got a feeling that you're going to have to dig down quite a lot to make sure you have enough head room. Either that or top like fuck.

Would it be a bad idea too put my veg plants in with my flowering 12/12 plants? I simply do not have the room to veg them anywhere else apart from natural light. And as many know naturally light is unpredictable and not consistent.

if u put them under 12/12 they'll stop vegging and start heading into flower.no way round it other than maybe when the lights go off you pull ur vegging plants out and give them another 6 hours of natural light.

you've got to watch if ur moving plants about and interrupting light scedules, if it stresses the plant, and iot probably will to an extent it could result in hermies. whatever you do has got to be a time considered 'routine' so that the plants aren't getting uneven amounts of light.

a couple more Qs for yous - I've read the time to harvest is when half the trics have turned amber, is this over the whole plant or just the main colas, or...? and also, if I have to start to flush a week before harvest then how do you know when it's a week to go?? cheers

to be honest its really an individual thing and its learned by experience, there are no hard and fast rules on harvest; most people will chop the whole plant when the main cola is fully mature, they won't look at the rest of the plant because it'll be close enuff that it doesnt make much difference. if u want to be fussy then you can chop in stages, main cola and top buds first, then a week of light on the rest and then chop it too. its really up to you.. as for gauging harvest time that too is just experience and checking the tricomes.

knowing the right time to harvest sounds a bit tricky, but knowing when it's a week to go and time to start flushing - I've no idea...

i started by following the time schedule to the day almost, that and comin in here and lookin at close up pics others had posted. after a cpl of grows u will stop needin to do that as you'll have the experience. at first i wrote everything down in a diary, feeding routines, temps,plant height, the fuckin lot. these days i just fuck around and do what i feel like because ive learned all the basics(im no expert but i know how to grow). its like driving a car, after a while it becomes almost instinctive. dont worry about it. if ur deperate for advice then just post some good close up pics and watch us all argue as to when you should chop,lol.
