ok so the tallest is 13 in.. med is 11, and the smallest is 9 in...they've been growing for about a month...so is this bad or..good? I just want to clear that up, see how they should be doing and all at their age. They have plenty of leafiez and I think they're all females..I just want to see if they should be bigger or what. just want the erm..'dl' thx:pimp:
I have a grow going on now, 1 week behind yours matter of fact, check it out, they are 33 days from sprout. http://boards.cannabis.com/showthread.php?t=67935
hey HIPPIE..
YOU KNOW.. YOU KNOW.. YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW

cheers... : )
That's really not enough info to tell. ie, are you growing in dirt? The plants will grow slower in dirt. How's your lighting? Plants grow slower in poor light. How's your nutes. Plants grow slower without the proper chemicals. What are your temps? Plants grow slower in colder temps and rot in hot ones. What variety are you growing. Some grow taller than others.
As an example to compare, I am growing AK-47 in hydro and use cool tubes so I can get the lights right in the plants. My plants are about 2 feet tall at 30 days, some a little bigger. However I am not counting the time they spent getting roots in the cloner. If I am supposed to count that, then make it about 40 days, or 18 inches at 30 days.
Variables, man. Too many.
gah..well, I'm not certain what kind they are..I just have a, what I like to call 'shit box' full of stems and seeds...pulled out some seeds from there, and just..planted them in a deep pot, yeah I'm using top soil of some sort. The lighting, well..I'm pretty positive that isn't so great. You see, I kind of just threw myself into this. Never grown before, so I was just sort of experimenting with these. At about a month old, they're 13, 11, and 9 inches high. the lighting got from home depot, its a 'infrared heat lamp' 250w...that good, or bad? and chemicals? where can I get these? I just want to make sure they make it to actually getting some buds..but then again, I AM just experimenting with these. ^.^; thanks for the info btw
Hi Hippie
that light does not sound RIGHT.. it actually sounds BAD..
you can get CFL's for 5-10 dollars a piece.. get the 150 watt cfls.. they sell them at home depot...
you will be glad you did!!

Any light will veg., MH is best but requires ventilation.
For flower, in my opinion and that of most others, there is but one choice: HPS.
Fluoros work if you use a shitload of them, but for the same price as a shitload you can have HID lights.
For newbies:
HID: High Intensity Discharge
MH: Metal Halide
HPS: High Pressure Sodium (dont get water on it when it's hot)
ah, many thanks. how I'll get the money for this, I don't know...but thank youQuote:

Here's what I did:
Get married to a woman with a good job. You get a good job. Have her do all the finances. You bring home the check. Tell her you are starting a weed growing venture. Buy whatever you need on Discover card so you get 1% back.
Ohhh the lamp is bad way too much heat for the output.
Also do you have more than one plant per pot?
The roots will get entangled if you do and will be very difficult to transplant.

hahah yes...that's the ticket ! get some broad knocked up and tell that bitch to pay her way around. I like the way yall think.
pretty amazing you got 11" from a heat-lamp, who'd of thought.
I know.. for that being very ..NOT good lighting, I got a good 14, 12 1/2, and 10 inches on my babies. This IS me just experimenting though. mannn if I get something actually worth getting from this, well...that would be pretty nice.:DQuote:

i wanna laugh at your expense.. if you don't mind.. : )

hahah I wish I could find a picture of it. I'll keep trying though, just for you !
You know, it's cool you have a lot of love, but I'm kind of..not digging some stranger on a cannibis forum telling me it all the time. It's cute at your country or whatever, but uh... Oh, well shit...what the hell. 'iloveyou2'
AHHHHHHHH bastard
no but for real, I'll try and get pics for you soon
oh yeah, and I have a vagina...go figure !
really, a heat-lamp should do next to nothing for any plant, I am undoubitebly curious as to what it looks like. :stoned:
Nice to meet you btw miss, and Knowm is right, I find myself writing "happy" and "pretty" in my logs, plants do weird things to people...
pervert:D no but for real..tryin my best to get some pics up...they're my lil chillins..i love them, even though everyone on here tells me they cant be grown this way aand it is just mad chaos that I'm doing this and what have you. well ok, no body tells me it like that...but you get the idea
Yes, his name is Aden, he's almost three, and he is the coolest thing to ever happen to my life.Quote:

Like I said, anything will work for veg, but how much weed do you want? If you want the max for your efforts you need to veg with MH and Bloom with HPS. The wrong light may fool some people into thinking their plants are growing big and fast, when in reality it is making them stretch, and they will not produce the maximum yield possible. The plants are trying to compinsate for crappy lighting by opening up so the light can get into all the branches, and growing real tall to get up and over whatever is keeping the proper light from them. (In this case... light.)
ah, I get ya. I just need the money for this. need to stop being such a skeeby stoner and get off my ass...
but its soooooooooooooo hard
