Looking very nice Buf :thumbsup:

The droop might be an indication of rootbound also, might want to check that out.

Also you said you released the ties. Just curious why? I'm bringing this up because the plant will always choose one shoot to be the tallest, and focus most of it's energy there. You might lose your even canopy if you don't keep them tied.

what's up bigtops, your grow is sick:thumbsup:

anyhow..I thought i would flower in 2 weeks they're suppose to rest I thought, they'll get a transplant real soon. both seem to be having a quick recovery, as long as i watch them i should be able to last a few more days.

I'm kinda buggin about the 3 gal pots I'm going to next, I just wanna have enough room for roots to finish the plants strong.

so in the next 2 weeks i am planning on a transplant as well as thee beginning of flowering.

where am i going wrong fellas??:bigsmoke::S5::smokebong:

I find it hard to guess how much room i'm using up in the pots because of the low profile.:wtf:

Thanks! It's getting there, still learning with the new soils I'm using :jointsmile:

I understand recovery time as "no more training", but still keeping everything tied up.

Don't worry about the recovery too much with LST, if you top them then that's a different story. I trained 2-3 weeks into flowering for the scrog and had no problems. I think that's the best way to get an even canopy, and even then, some nugs will be bigger than others. No way to get it perfectly even.

I think the 3 gals will be a little too small to finish with, especially with 8 weeks of veg time. I try to transplant in a way that the plants don't spend more than 6 weeks in one container to avoid ph problems.

Thanks for the info man, i'll get em tied back down asap....as far as the buckets.I have 2 3gal buckets that barely fit and 5 gallon buckets that would only fit one in the cab........any ideas???


thanks again for the help

What about square pots, or 4 gals?

I've been on the search for buckets myself, and had an idea to make my own grow bags using large black garbage bags and duct tape... I haven't tried it yet, but I was going to wrap a garbage bag around the sized container I want, then use duct tape to hold the size. Maybe this wouldn't help in your case, unless you wanted to make taller versions of your 3 gals.

I wouldn't lose sleep over it yet, but something to think about in case you need to do it.

.....just trained the hell out of both plants, lowered the lights and called it a day..

my plant with the fat leaves looked like it needed some food so i whipped a batch of boost and fatty soaked it right up.......transplant is coming...

will check in the morning and mist......

buffalo.:rastasmoke:

maybe I'll make a trip to HD in the morning....

when I get my supplies, I should have everything to clone these plants...

They should show in about 2 weeks, while waiting I'll switch 2 of the 5500's to 2700 42 watters........and just keep training them....this idea has just hit the drawing board.I also have to refine my cloning technique, no more screw ups......I like the method that does not use rooting hormone. I have a high huminity area in the house that I use to crack seeds and start seedlings till they are strong enough for the higher lumen lights.

guys, what the hell is this......it feels soft , i'm thinking light burn ( but I use cfl's and they maintain 2-3"'s....you can see it on a close up on the shot from my previous post, 7 weeks in, i'm thinking i need to flush and transplant which I haven't done yet....I was going to flush at the 1 month mark but I didn't think it was too important....this is the only leaf with a spot like this, everything else looks great......the leaf is also attached to a top and if you look at the previus post pic, you you see a bit of twisting at the developing brown spot ( it feels healthy though)...nute burn? I thought nute burn only occurred at the tips and worked in??

I'm at a loss.......
