I don't want them to die! Whats wrong?

Will it grow more branches and shoots if I did a 24/0 week or so and then put it into flower after?

well, i think most breeders recommend a minimum vegetative period of 4-5 weeks prior to flowering if grown in soil.....within that time the average MJ plant has a height of 12-18 inches.....topping, between 4-7th node.....don't veg only for a week.....you need at least 4 weeks of veg for some decent yield in the end....the more plants you have the better i guess.....if you're really in a hurry (sheist) get to grow DOLCE VITA (dutch passion)....it needs only two weeks of 24/0 and then 12/12 for 8.5 weeks, that's pretty fast for a sativa don't you guys think? it's a bit pricey but hey what you pay is what you get....

There is no set time limit on growing. It is up to the grower, YOU, to decide when you want to change the cyle to 12/12, and begin flowering.

so wait for APPROXIMATELY 25 days? lol jus messin

but as a plant, with indoor grow.....the minute it sticks her pretty green head outta the earth, its a plant and its vegging.

so there is no 25 days in the question to even wait for..? just kick this bitch into high gear for appx 60 days or so or til it reaches my ideal height, which ever comes first.. and throw into flowering? so if my logic is right, which it probably isnt lol, i should start adding nutes midway into its veg progress.. eh?

now since we're making these sunz of bitchez small and such.. would there really be a significant need to get a HPS lamp? or can we stick with fluros..?

If you want to get any real flower growth, other than scant stem crawlers, you need the color temp the HPS provides.

You can get 2700 K CFLs....

They arent cheap and cost about as much as an HPS......

CFL's would be good for a low, single plant or so small closet grow.

Otherwise go with the HPS.

lol then where's the profit

The profit's in the quality smoke u get ;)

Yea if you are growing to profit of the cash type....better get a big grow growing....or use the sunlight GOD gave us for free next year :)

was my logic right?

Nope. A plant might take 25 days to grow 5inches, it might take some 35 days to grow 5inches. It all depends on the strain, and general care the grower, you, puts into the plant. It varies significantly.

Now you got it! Just make sure it doesn't get too big so you run out of room, then throw into flowering. So if you have 24inches(2ft) for total space, then you would want to throw your plant into flowering when it is approx. 10-12inches. eg. My grow space is only about 3ft square, so I switch to flowering when my plants are about 12inches(1ft) tall.

You're on the right track now. I start giving my plants a low dose of nutes about 3 weeks after growth, from seed. That's about, 3-4 sets of small leaves. So yes, about halfway through, 3 weeks of growth, 3-4 sets of leaves. Not too much though, always start light.
