Help please,

hi all, I am very curious about something, and wondered if anyone can set me straight. I checked my plant earlier, and in the middle, it was kind of sweating. Teeny beads of moisture, and when I touched them, it was kind of oily. The temp and everything is exactly the same as its always been. Is this just a natural thing the plant does?
Ps the oil smelled Lovely!

Thats normal!

[rastagal]

thanks mellow man, any ideas what it is? the oily stuff I mean?

THC

That's the part of the plant that gets you high.

[rastagal]

its the thc? cool. I do know thats the part that gets you high Zandor :)

I was going to let it veg for another two weeks Zandor, do you think that would be okay ? I rellay want to start the flowering..
2 weeks from now it'll be 7-8 weeks


Thanks

depends on how much progress it makes in those 2 weeks.. id say your probably right on with that though

the 'oil' is actually trichromes, the resin glands that contain the various cannabinoids that work together to get you high, including d9-thc :D

its normal and VERY good. you are convincing the plant it will dry out if if does not secreat an oil (thc based) to keep its leaves moist and alive.
good job. keep the temp right thur

You can flower it anytime you want. I have mothers that are over a year old and are under 24/7 400w MH and do just fine.

its weating again today, its a beautiful smell. I am considering starting flowering on monday, but keep telling myself wait, wait,..:)

[Zandor]

Did you say what light you are using and how old it is? I'm kind of old (and stoned) and forget sometime if I asked before.

Give it more time to grow start flowering when the plant reaches about 18" tall to 24" tall it will finish about 30-36". If you start flower around 24-30" it will finish around 4 feet.

Something to think about.

[rastagal]

Zandor, you're not old, you're experineced :)

Its 125 envirolite.its about 91/2 inches tall now.ok so u recomend 24-30 inches.

thanks man,

The light you have will not penetrate very deep into folage so that is about as big as you can go. You may want to pick us some CFL and use them as side lighting.
