Have you started nutes yet?
I'm really thinking the same cool. The new leaves on it are much wider compared to length than any of the others. Also it has been a much darker shade of green than all the others.

Haven't started nutes yet. The potting soil I am using has heat released nutes that are supposed to last 9 months. The analysis of the potting soil is 10-8-6. One of my friends gave me some Plant food spikes that run 6-12-6. I plan on using the spikes when I start flowering them. Hopefully, that will be enough for some good healthy bud. I don't have the funds to buy all that fancy Fox Farm nutes or the like.

Nice to see your grow going, mine is in full swing and I'm enjoying it very much. I'm doing 24/0 on my veggie garden.
Grape Krush.....mmmm. Is Grape Krush a pure Indica, or a hybrid? One thing for sure. I sure do like all them cleaver names they give to pot now days. I hope people keep reason around when deciding on a name. Like for instance the name Kush used so often. I've even seen that damned Legal Bud banner calling their crap "Something Kush". I wouldn't put the name Kush on anything unless its origin was the Hindu Kush Mountain Range. But that's just me.

Lights: Now that they have been under 18/6 for 1.5 weeks, wouldn't it shock them to fart around with the light timing now? What about roots? Shouldn't they have a fair amount of dark when starting out to give them a good root system? How much difference does it make going 24/24?

I'm hoping to have big enough plants to start budding after 6 to 8 weeks. It would be nice to get them to harvest in as little as 3 months. That's my goal. Maybe if I can get nice cuttings off them before flowering, I can get a system going such that I can get a harvest every 8 or 12 weeks.

One other thing, even though this question is an early one. When taking a cutting, have any of you ever did it and not used the clone root hormones? Did you have success? I figure if it indeed works (cloning with out hormones) it would be slower, but it would save my poor ass the cost of hormones. Input anyone?

Thanks for your helpful advise.:hippy:
