Two to three OZ's off a two to three foot plants streachin it a bit wouldn't you say?
If your new to growing and happen to pull off a good grow be VERY happy with an OZ per plant bro!!!
Hopefully you have a HPS ballast and bulb for flower???? You can start with a cheap 45 dollar street HPS and progress from there!
If not ya need to start thinking about acquiring one soon!!!!

You'll love Jack Frost man...
She's killer sparkly but don't expect much of a yield. High quality bud with average to below average yields!!!!
One of the most beautiful plants I've EVER ran!!!
Congradulations bro. Post up a few shots of her if you can, DC...
Yes nothing wrong with an ounce of cured and dried bud off your first grow. The whole idea is to build experience from it and try and change one thing each grow to get production. A common mistake is to change a couple things and then have the grow go south and not know what change hurt the crop.Quote:

All 5 clones are being taken below the V, which im told these branches will die if i just leave them there so i will just use them for clones... Also, I have a question, Ive had this plant under 18 hours on 6 off for 6 weeks now, when should I change the time to 12 on 12 off? Would appreciate any help you all can give. :pimp: one more question... any way i can get this plant to be taller??? Had someone tell me to move my led's up and the plant will grow towards it.. :stoned:
You can start 12/12 any time you want. They'll usually grow another 1/3 of plant height in flower.
Yes moving the lights away will make the plant stretch more, usually you don't want to do that.
If you are using containers, its customary to transplant up to the final pot size around 1-2 weeks before flower. I like to get them into their final pot and wait for that explosion of rapid growth before flowering. Normally this is a few days after transplant, and then a few more days and I put them in.
So if I were you, I'd prolly take clones, pot them up, and in a week flower them.
Now is also a good time to stake out your colas. Basically look for main branches and tie them up either to a stake, the plants main stalk, or even the side of the pot if you need them to come down. I try to not place more than 1 main cola (branch made up of nodes that will become bud sites) every 6 inches to prevent crowding. Then my goal is to normally space them as evenly as possible, hopefully so direct light reaches near the bottom where the bud sites will be starting.
Staking the plant before flower can be a nice way to visualize how your canopy will be filling in, and you can be sure you're making efficient use of your space.
I'd still recommend you go get a 400w HPS though for flowering. I bet you could even get a used one for under $300, everything you need.
Using tomato cages work pretty good too and they're reusable.
Thanks for the info justpics, but im trying to see what just l.e.d lights will do with the plants.. most likely i will be getting 2 300 watt led panels to add to the 2 90 watt ufo led's i currently have.. from the videos ive seen online kind of disproves the argument that you get "loose" buds, from what ive seen the buds were tight and fat. anyways, she is 6 weeks old today, probably let her go another month or so at 18 on and 6 off than switch to 12 on 12 off.
Hey guys thought id post up the pics i took at 6 weeks. here they are :
