I too was worried that I had either damaged the plants somehow, or the I was doing something else wrong. They are all doing great now at week 4 of flower. 36 plus inches and covered with flowers and the triks starting frost.

Mine were short, indic predominant strains, I transfered them to flower when they where 16 to 18 inches ( at about 6 weeks into veg) and used a good organic fert/nute system.

Don't dispare, the plants look healthy, if you have a good soil, then around week 4 or 5 you can start giving them 1/4 to 1/2 streangth nutes and see how they react to it.

Right on!, I think that's what happenned to me. I've been under the impression that transplanting was stressful to a plant, so I just went ahead and started in a big pot. I've just started using Botanicare as well. What's freakin' me now though is that I've got 10 plants now at nearly 6 weeks at 20/4 and they range in height from 16 inches to 8 inches and I'm afraid of starting the flowering stage too soon for some of them. My grow room isn't divided, or I'd start some and bring the rest in when they got their height.
Another thought I'm entertaining is to move some outdoors to flower, but I'm not sure that they wouldn't try to start veggin' again. Is it possible to get two harvests in one year using the sun? Any ideas?

SHORT Plants Last month was too broke to buy seeds from a "cannabis seedhouse", and a friend came up some seeds from another friend that told him that it was a variety of medicinal strains, and "good luck" in New Mexico, because these were "outside" strains that did well in northern Washington state, and he didn't have much faith in their vitality in our climate. Anyways, I am grateful for the gift, and immediately germinated the seeds and put them in dirt on Feb. 26. The problem is this, a couple look Rating: 5
