[James7797]

[llamaman666]

yes, seperate the plants and move the light a little closer if possible, but it's looking very healthy, good luck.

Howdy James7797,

The plants look fair to middlin,the center trunk,however,is a bit skinny and stretched,you need to git rid of the halogen light and replace it with a floro,which will be cool enough to place closer to the plants and helping to reduce the stretching for the light source. Halogens will burn your plants by way of heat from the hot running bulb.

Have you thought ahead and planned for where the plants wil be when they are taller and bushier ? Or is your window sill capable of holding several four, 4ft tall plants ? Every plant-needs to be in at least a 3 gallon pot by it's self..5 gallons would be even better.

When ya go to flower - you'll need a place where no light can reach them-for 12 hours. Do you have an oscillating fan,that can help to keep the plants cool,help them to respirate and to strengthen the center stems ? You want your plant to be strong enough to bear and support the weight of the buds..which means that you need a cool floro and an oscillating fan,to reduce the stretch and strengthen the stems.

Have a good one...Torog :D

PS: I forgot to add,that when you do transplant into new pots,be sur and fill them up at least 2/3 - 3/4,git all the growing room ya can for the roots.

[llamaman666]

Also, when transplanting, have the dirt level on 3 to 4 cm below the first round leaves,

[James7797]

ok thnx for the advice i will think about what you said and the halogen has made one of my plants leaves look dryed out a bit so i gave it lots of water but they are all growing ok and one is growing the typical hand type leaf

[James7797]

And i do have one fluro its a double tube 18w's and each tube is 18 w's is that ok it will be in the window with the fluro

[marimbas]

its gonna be ok for now, and for like 3 or 4 weeks, later on you gotta start planing into setting up a closet, with a high wattage High Pressure Sodium light. Other wise you wont get much to smoke from!

Howdy James,

Floro's are good--halogens are bad..it's just that simple..the spectrum from the halogen lamp,is the wrong spectrum for marijuana,the increased reds in the halogen spectrum,actually cause problems..like plant stretching and poor veg growth.

The floro you have is okay,but on the weak side..is the sunlight coming through your window,directly on the plants for awhile ? If the sunlight is indirect,then you may still have problems with not enough light.

Have a good one...Torog
