2.25 sq ft cardboard cab

although i have never seen such a large brown spot, the twisting is indicative of nute burn.....funny how it's only on that one leaf.

so being that I have not flushed yet, i'll run 2 liters through the soil, which should be enough.

I have been using ferts more so with this plant in particular, so I guess this is the plant asking for a flush/transplant..........so that 's the direction i'm going

howdy all.......these are shots of what i call " the good plant"......you'll understand after the next shots...

we are 7 weeks solid...transplants into 8" pots and all is looking well, no preflowers yet , and I have upgraded to 5000k cfl's with a total of 7000lumens from 5500k 5600 lumn cfl's.....I also added a reflector...I have the bigger one's for flowering.adding the reflector significantly reduced light loss to the roof of the cab......continuing LST...when I see preflowers I will transplant to 10" pots........if I see any signs of lock out I will transplant immediately.I have the pots ready to go....

so this is the plant that gave me some trouble.aka "fatty"
It got root locked.that spot was the beginning.......I have never seen a symptom such as that so I wound up waiting to transplant and the root lock leaf discloration spread all over the plant

the big ass leaves were a huge problem with covering up the tops and they were quite affected by the lock out.I did a bit of trimming, transplanted . lst'd and then i friggin cracked the main stem where i topped...i put some guerilla tape on it and it has improved tremendously .........still no preflowers but I have many more tops exposed to the lights.......hopefully the plant will recover fully ......it has been through hell

the new growth looks great

anyway take a close look and tell me what you think about the recovery..

I'm at the point now where my canopy has just about filled the entire 2.25 space .....

It would be so much easier for me to just sex the plants and then make decisions from there....

I still want want to scrog as the canopy is fairly even with lots of new growth coming in, I'm sure the scrog will give me much more yield than a sog.

if I put in 2 separate screens I will still have to train the plant to stay on its proper side and if I have a male I run the risk of disrupting the sacs........so the plan is to put 4 42 watters in and let em sex

I'm just under 8 weeks with no preflowers and I'm in 8" pots (fairly recent transplant)........

As soon as they show their sex I'll transplant to 10" pots.....I should make it because I'll be about 2 weeks into flower and there normally isn't a ton of root growth towards the end........I've been using the teir method also.......freeing up much more soil for the plants.

pics to come....

lights have been switched to 12/12....but I'm still using the 5000k bulbs for a total of 7000 lumens......I want to continue root growth, as I will not finish in these pots and I don't want to waste soil and the 2700k bulbs. Will continue to even out the canopy as I wait for the sex.

PRAY FOR FEMALES!!

as mentioned in a previous post, you can still see remnants of the root lock from the previous pots

but since the transplant, the new growth looks great and they have taken root in the new soil........
