Just thought id see if anyone had any opinions, the plant in the first and second pic are lemon skunk and the other 2 are lowryder 2. i added nutes to them all a week ago and recently repotted the ls into 11.5 litre pots. im think of lsting the lemons the bigger one is about 10" tall i plan to veg until april 5 as this is when im harvesting the lr. All plants are 30 days old.

if it is going to flower taller than the rest of your strains i would lst it. if you are goin to have an even canopy i would not lst it. or if the canopy is even i would lst everything to keep everything the same height

Just thought id give ya'll an update. They are now just coming up 2 the fourth week of flowering. The first pic is of both plants, the second is the cola that i topped, the third is the bigger plant, fourth is the smaller one and pic 5 is an outsde view of the tent. I think the big one may be getting rootbound but i dont have more soil or bigger pots so it'll just need to deal with it.

The one on the left looks a little rootbound and the one on the right looks like it's getting there. Purple stems can be an indication of rootbound symptoms, combine that with your droopy leaves and claws forming I would say that you probably are about ready to transplant.
Pull the plant up out of it's pot to at least inspect the root system and if needed go out and buy a set of new pots to transplant ASAP.
It's better to prevent the problem than to experience it all out.
Plants are looking great :thumbsup:

Off the subject a little but is that strain from Greenhouse seeds? If so any particular things you have picked up from growing it you could pass along as this will be the next one I'm working with..

Yep, Greenhouse feminised. these are the first 'real' plants ive grown and im very happy with how they're doin

I got the tent from ebay for...... I wanna say 90 pounds but it might have been 100

Added a couple of 20w cfls near the base of the bigger plant and one next to the smaller one. On the leaves at the top of one cola there are red blotches almost as if the plant is bleeding. The second pic shows the area where the cfls are to try and promote a bit more growth down there. Coming to the end of week 6 of flowering.

How are The Plants Looking? Can you distinguish a smell of the buds yet?
Giro2007
05-16-2008, 01:57 AM
They look lovely and the smell is fantastic, when they say 'lemon skunk' its a great description its as if someones been sprayin lemon juice in the air and in the last few days they've gotten really sticky. I'm gonna put some more pics up in a few days and hopefully the lower growth will have picked up a bit, i did have four cfls round the bottom but my fuckin retard mate broke the one in the ghetto reflector. he tried to take the bulb out and crushed it with his gommy gorilla hands he was like 'why didnt u tell me it would break if i grabbed it by the bulb?' Some people just have no common sense whatsoever:mad:

is that more indica or sativa dominate strain? I could be totally wrong here but something tells me another week or 2 with molasses or just overall care would bang the tich production right up to a much more worth wild harvest. Good luck
Giro2007
05-29-2008, 01:58 PM
I think its 60% sativa and 40 indica but im not totally sure. I cut down the smaller one today and im gonna leave the other one for 2 more days, the buds weighed about 65g
Giro2007
06-01-2008, 11:08 PM
I cut down the bigger plant yesterday and its buds weighed 85g plus i now have 95g of trimmings. I dried out the buds from the other one on my mates radiator and it was dry in an hour so that i could get a smoke before i go on holiday tomorrow, this stuff is sweet its so smooth but it takes the wind out u. The high kinda creeps up on u, i gonna leave the rest to dry while im a way and after a week my brothers gonna stick it in jars to cure until i guy back. Anyway heres some pics

hey how are you venting the heat from that light? can you snap a picture of your exhaust/intakes?
setup looks sweet, nice plants too

I like the tent... i have one just like it and it is awesome. It looks like you harvested that sativa about 2-3weeks early... sativas like a long flower... What kind of nutrients and lighting are you using?
Giro2007
06-19-2008, 08:12 AM
Hey man, for air intake and exhaust there were just two passive airways and one 7" oscillating fan inside and that kept the light pretty cool, i used a 250w cfl and three 20w's at the bottom. For nutes i just had basic miracle-grow. The flowering times said on the ghouse website said 8-9 weeks but i think the reason it wasnt ready was that id repotted it during flower and after i pulled up the plant i realised that the plant had taken up any of the new soil and it was rootbound which probably lost me quite some yeild.
Anyway came back from hols yesterday and the buds from the bigger plant had been left to dry for 10 days then i got someone who was looking after them to stick them in jars so they have been curing for a week i weighed it at 16g and then there was 2g of smaller buds in my drawer that i couldnt hang up so ive smoked the 2 g and put the rest back to cure, so i'm just gonna take small bits at time and let it cure longer. sorry i cant get any more pics of the tent coz i sold it to a mate, hes got three indicas growin in it and he gave me one of the seeds that im planning for a micro grow.

Hey bud is the tent you're growing in called the "DarkRoom" ?
Giro2007
06-30-2008, 12:32 PM
Yeah its a darkroom but the "street" version which is just a slightly cheaper one and is a bit less reflective inside
