hi its my first grow and need some advice, at the minute i have 2 fem nebula plants which have been growing for nearly 2 months but r only about 10 inches tall.
got 2 125w cfls in a big closet.
the big one has got little white hairs on it , does this mean i should start to flower or can i veg it longer. want to grow it bigger?

hi ne 1 out there who knows

[veggii]

hi ,
its really hard to recomend what you should do with such little information,
so i am going to suggest that you read stinky's grow log;
http://boards.cannabis.com/basic-gro...-dankness.html that should answer a bunch o ??? for you

[macnasty]

you can flower whenever you want my friend. it's the veg cycle you can control, not so much the flower. big closet? only 2 125W CFL's? i hope you're positioning those lights as close to the plants as possible. 2 months and ten inches sounds meager imo.

nice 1 , cheers for the links
when they get white hairs , does that not mean its autoflowered or is it common to c them during veg?
keeping lights a few inches away.
i think i had some dodgy seeds cause planted two bag seeds and they have caught up in only few weeks.:rastasmoke:

[jkeabs]

they seem to be quite bushy but not growing much in height, ne idears which wil make it grow quiker(taller).

[stinkybudz]

no those are preflowers, i dont see what could of caused such a stunting of height, they look great, might be genetically related if you say other bagseed caught up, and if they cant be autoflower, i believe the longest autoflower is like.. 9 weeks from cotyledon? so you'd be nearing harvest if you had an autoflower

dont quote me on this, cause im new here/to this aswell, but 2x 125WCFL's in a big closet is probs abit weak for 4! plants.....what have you got round the sides for reflection? can you not put smoe white boards up each side?

from your pic it seems theres not enough light for the plants, so either more bulbs or enclose the space abit more for tight,close reflection

get yourself a hps and you will soon see the difference!!flower whenever you like,but some plants will triple in size in the flowering stage,so keep a good eye on them.

thanx guys,
cheers stinkybud, have to keep growing and hope they will surprise me. they have def got some dwarf in there genes tho.
If only i could use a hps i would have been by now, but due to the heat, n the eletric prices in england its not really poss for first grow, so will hav to adjust setup n hope for best.
the walls r painted white but the area is rather large , so gonna try and block of half the closet, as to lighting was gonna try with just the two 125w on the top and 8 smaller cfls around the side say about 26w.

The problem is in england i cant find ne 26w or 40w cfls with 6500k light spectrum, and like u guys say i need more light as soon as possible. is it possible to use 2400k warm light or will they not beable to use this light in vegg???:thumbsup:
