So did mine and I planted them deeper when I transplanted them. Some of them stretched like crazy. I have much better lighting now though.
Good luck. When I start to flower my current grow, I'm going to order some actual strains. White Widow will probably be one of my choices. For my first grow, I just used some bagseed that I'm hoping will turn out decent. Even if it's not that great, I'll still get some decent experience off of it.
Cannot wait to see this grow take off!
Just a lil update, not much to report. They seem to be doing well, just growing their 3rd set of real leaves. The blue spec enviro seems to be working well too, stems are much stronger and the nodes seem pretty tight.
Only slight problem is a couple of the plants are drooping slightly which I think is probably a bit of overwatering, I've been watering a little each day so far, i'm gonna skip watering today and see how they go.
Planning to transplant them to 6l pots later this week and start lst. Whats everyone think, 2 weeks about right to start lst?
Proper lighting makes a world of difference. Very jealous.
:thumbsup:
I started LST when I saw 3-4 nodesQuote:

Ive hooked up the light and filter, had to play around with positioning so I would lose the least height in the tent, the cooltube is a lot bigger than what I expected, it makes my tent bulge a little with the ducting on either end of it lol. Got the fan to do, the light came prewired but I'm gonna have to see if i've got some electrical flex and a plug for the fan. Other than that I just need to secure the ducting, I might have a look for some proper fastening for it next week but I think tape will do the job at least for now. Oh and I'm not gonna be able to put the tent where I initially wanted unless I cut about 4" of the frame to accomodate the ducting coming out of the top, not a lot of height to lose but the tent's starting to look cramped so I'm gonna have to think about it.
Plants are about the 2 week mark now, I transplanted into 6l pots yesterday, they all seem ok, some are growing a little faster than others, the droopy leaves seem to be a little better, I'll give them a couple of days to recover from the transplant and I'll post some pics. If I get some batteries for my cam I'll get some picks of the tent setup later.
Peace all :rastasmoke:
Can't wait for you to put up some pics with your grow log.
Good luck,

Hey,
Well I've hooked up the fan, so now the tent is sorted. Had a test run with it for a couple of hours, outside the tent was 72F inside was 82F so i'm hoping with the 10F increase I'll be ok in summer if I run the lights through the night, we'll see lol The test run was done with just the regular passive intake, I can open a couple of vents in the tent also so that should knock a couple degrees off if I need it. I assume I can lower the temps by running the exhaust without the carbon filter on to increase air circulation? Not ideal but it might help me get through a particularly hot week.
Here's some pics of the setup.
Very nice:thumbsup:
Right thought it was time for some updated pics of the plants. They're about 16 days old now, they seem pretty healthy to me, a little droopy from overwatering but I think they're getting over than now. Gave them a little water today for the first time since tuesday. There's a little yellowing on one of the plants so I think it's about time to try some 1/4 nutes next watering. Tried a little bit of lst on 2 of the plants, just give them a gentle bend with the string to get them used to it before I try to get them completely horizontal. Pics ain't great, I'll try to take some more tomorrow in daylight so the flash dosn't affect the colour. Any comments/advice?
Peace!
