triches already? consider yourself lucky. shit it takes two weeks for a plant just to push out pistils let alone triches.

Yea, you are lucky man. I am running some Afghan Indicas and they are just starting to get a bit of frost at 4 weeks.

well being a newbie i didnt realise that you dont count the first 2 weeks as veg so what i thought was 5 weeks really turned out to be 3 but when i changed their light cycle to 12/12 they really bushed out something mental before they started to flower to be fair they probably bushed out for 2 weeks before any real flowers started to appear 20 days ago just out of interest why do you ask are you growin rhino or thinking about growin rhino

I'm thinking of the Rhino for my next grow, which will be my 2nd. I'm still in the veg state for my 1st grow.

Question - how tall were your plants when you went to the 12/12 bloom stage?

To be honest it varied between the 3 girls so they were 8" to 12" when i changed to the 12/12 cycle and boy did they bush right out

Thanks. It appears that I am closer to bloom than I thought. I guess they really do blow up when you go to 12/12.

Put it this way I'm day 20 into flower and they easily tripled in size as you can see in one of my pics they have taken up all space in my room

Yes. Mike1977, you're doing an awesome job. I'll tell you, if mine look like that after 3 weeks I'm gonna be one happy farmer.

looks like you have some banana leaves goin on, in pic #3. There are multiple causes for this. The first could be that you are over/under watering your plants. The second could be a magnesium deficiency, and the third being that you could have a potential pH problem. Have you checked your soils runoff pH? Are you using any cal/mg supplement? It's always good to nip these things in the bud before they get out of hand. besides that, things look good!

Agree with Penguinking....have you flushed? I had that problem for my first 3 grows...then I tried flushing right when I started 12/12...no more canoe leaves. YO
