Hey guys. I know you havnt seen any pictures of my crop, but my two ladies are doing just wonderful. Heres some specifics:

Soil Medium: Tropical Planting mixed Soil
Fert: Peters 10-50-10
Lighting: 4 compact flour. warm white. forget the watts, but lumens are like almost 3000 each. 2 flouresent cool white tubes. (42 w)

This is my first grown and i'm already learning so much. I only topped once, 2 weeks before i put them into veg. I Vegged for 5 1/2 weeks.
I did a little bit of LST but stopped after the transplant into their final 3 gallon home. Since i only topped once theres like 5 sets of branches comming out starting to bud. The two top ones look great. the 2 sets below them are doing good also. They are about as tall as the top ones. The bottom set is doing o-k little bit smaller. I think i'm going to get what you guys call popcorn buds. Also.....some of the hairs on some buds are already turning amber and shriveling up. Is this okay? i am about 30 days into flour. 7 weeks is May 17. snip snip.
Any feedback??

yes HerbPuffer242 it is wise to do what u did and creat more branches that will create more budsites for flouro growing.U'l get lots of colas growing up to ur bulbs by keeping them about 4'' away or closer to ur bulbs. Some strains like flouros better than anything else for ideal growth.U might end up with more than 5 oz dryed from 1 plant if u started flowering it at about 20''tall like I did.By transplating her in a big pot as soon as u go 12/12 then u can tie her down horizontal along under ur bulbs and watch all ur colas grow up to be biggies.

Spectral your colas look beautiful. Mine are no where as full as yours are. You have anything to say about the hairs turning amber already? Or anyone have anything to say?
