So misjudged how big these would get.
The tall one that stretched is going to be a beast to find room for at this point. Having trouble keeping her far enough from the light, and it's too cold outside to take her out there.
Limping through the next week or so.
I did upgrade the lighting to add another 150W(actual) LED, so 400W total now for these two and their friends.
Doing well; Leaves look good.
Lower leaves are getting shaded out so pruning as I go.
Keeping nutrients a little light as the routine seems to be working.
Smell is getting pretty strong.
The plan now is to just keep them happy for another month.
All previous grows were Auto's, so learning with my current photo plants.... Question on flipping to flower... I'm at 18/6 now. Do I just make the change in one swoop to 12/12, or is it better to progress there (taking 30:minutes of light out of each day until 12/12?).
Great advice all; That why I love this place - tons of experience and perspective.
So my take is that I can do either, just jump to 12/12, or progress.
Different perspectives but knowing that either is OK is what I needed.
I'll probably split the difference (progress over like 3 days)..
Thanks all.
@DoDrugs420,
Thank you!
Ended up being a pretty intense smoke.
Sativa heavy supposedly, but damn it hits hard. Not one for the workday for sure.!
Peace!
I'm growing some gelato using leds for first time.I have different genetics,and my girls look nothing at all like these ones..I'm also growing Jack Herer.They're 19 days old from seedlings and so far the led light has made a ton of difference and my girls had to be put in 8 litre pots already as their roots we're getting tangled in the bottom of the 1litre pots I use for babies.I'm using sensi grow a&b @ 1ml per litre of cool,not cold, water.Slight nute burn but will half food to 0.5ml per litre water (pH 6.5), til burns gone..Mine take 8-9 weeks flowering too,not 14..It's so weird how the same strains are so different from different seed banks.I used seedsman seeds this time,as recommended on ILGM forum..Happy Growing!Hoping mine will look just as nice as yours!!
@pompeysalz29,
Thanks for the kind words, friend!
For sure - even my two girls seem totally different (one 44", the other 32") - and I treated them the same, rotated them around the lights, etc.
Crazy!
Sounds like you off to a good start!
Post them so we can see too!
