long overdue update

[hanayama]

6 weeks yesterday
mary is about 15 inches tall and jan is about 16 -161/2 inches

they will be put into flowering in about a week.

our first cloning attempt was a big failure...oh well
live and learn, im sure ill take some clippings from my next batch.

i got a couple dank bags recently from a buddy that were kinda seedy- so i now have 17 seeds in germination!!!!!!

Your adult plant looks excellent.
The small ones, though, look like they are getting fertilizer burn. What are you using for soil, and has it ever been used before?

[hanayama]

no, no fertilizer.
they were screwed up during cloning.
i was going to trash them...but figured i might as well see if any survive. its fresh soil.

besides nitrogen deprivation the week before flowering, do i need to do anything to prep them for flowering????

[stinkyattic]

Actually depriving them of N the week before isn't all that great a way to go about things. In fact, many growers continue to give some N even during the first ~10 days of flower, JUST until it appears that stretch is slowing down. After that, you do indeed deprive them of N by switching to a bloom fert that has little to no nitrogen in it.
One thing that some growers swear by is an extended 'night' before flowering. 24-36 hours of pure uninterrupted darkness sends the unmistakable signal to the plant, 'it is time to flower... ready... set... [lights come on]... GO!!!!!'

whats the deal on our mutant leaf? and the 8 and 9 sided ones? are they more prevelant? any preflowers? i must say they are looking nice...I found an extra seed at my place from the same batch...the shell just popped last night so i might plant it later this eve

[hanayama]

thanks stinky. i just re- read a thread of yours about...well...everything.
got it squared away i think.

[hanayama]

well I am down to one big plant.
i measured her yesterday, 24 inches!!
the little girls in the cups are from some pretty good bagseed i got.
since i know for sure that jan is a girl...she got her preflowers i took 2 clones yesterday

question tho...how many gallons should i give her per watering?
the closet she is in has really low humidity(around 35%) so she dries up pretty fast.
i gave her 2 gallons yesterday morning and tonight she was looking droopey and the soil was dry. so i gave her 3 gallons, and think i will stick with that(3 gals. per watering) from now on.
does this sound strizzle???

[hanayama]

anyone have an estimate on how much she will yield? figuring she will be btwn. 4 and 4 1/2 ft. at harvest. and will be using a 400 watt hps for flowering

[FlyGuyOU]

looking damn fine
