yo, i forgot this. er not sure what my pots are? 12" high by 12" across at the top but getting narrower towards the base, they have already been transplanted as they started popping out of the bottom of her last pots too, (i dont use cups or those boi pots u can plant straight in the ground, i use 6" x 6" from the start) that was only a week and a half ago tho! and with all that root hanging out the bottom now i dont want to risk damage to them by repotting. i guess will see what happens during flowering..still toying with the idea of making a frame and raising them 4"

[higher_than_you]

just a quick update whilst im on here, so i didnt build a frame and raise them 4 inchs as planned, im only on my 5th grow, of which only 3 were completed, i chose my strain carerfully with regards to my habitat, ie the grow room size, there currently in 1m squared by 2m high and im already on my last inch of the light height adjustment! and i still have around 8 weeks left!! in the last 2 weeks the tallest has easly grown a 1.5f, i reckon bout an inch a day give or take, not that im complaining tho, for an indoor plant dammm she looks good.. but iv had to super crop her to slow her, if it continuous like this i will have to put the two tallest in the green house from the 20th (timing could not be better) and just let mother nature do her thing!
dropped my iphone in a rock pool whilst fishing, utterly shagged. soon as i get a new one ill upload some pics, all 4 girls are doing very well, the 3 leafed wonder is more of a 3 stemed bush :smokin: they all have little pistols too so in the next week or so i should see proper signs of flowering.. i love this part the most:thumbsup:

[unforgiven3x]

hey hey glad to hear the girls are doing well!! please say you put them in flower back on the 28th??? cuz with only 2 m of height less the light, you should have flowered even sooner by my thougts. based only on stuff i have read, not on experience with these plants. wish i hadn't fimmed the fim on my 3 leaf, yours looks awesome.

if you greenhouse them now, it is spring, right? so you will be putting them right back into veg!!! then wait til what? october or so?

bummer about your phone. but a bad day fishing is better than a good day at work anytime!!!

hey u3x, hows tricks i been checkin ur log too, :thumbsup: looking good! intrigued by the vertical. yep they went into flower on the 28th, usually i would veg between 2-4 weeks depending on strain, what pheny and how well they do in there first few weeks, coz these girls all most died i felt they needed the recovery time before the switch.

yep, iv read too that they can be stretchers, i thought i could handle that with lst and topping but it just made it more vigorous lol out of the 4 i have 2 tall ones and two 'normal ones' ill put the 2 tall ones back into the green house from the 20th and let them veg back out for the summer n wait till october, the smaller two should yield enough to carry me through till there ready at which point im not expecting to much of a greenhouse left :jointsmile: iv seen a log where a plant was put back into veg after two weeks, and when put back into flower within 3 days already had trichs so it will be quite intriguing, i guess the hormones are still floating about in the plant.

bummer about your phone. but a bad day fishing is better than a good day at work anytime!!!

< love this

iv had to raise the extractor fan so i can push the taller plants back and iv got it working in reverse with it blowing outdoor air in.
tallest is 4f2 but including 1f pot height, iv moved the light so its above the 2 smaller bushy'r phenoys, iv gained an extra 3 inches distance from the taller ones. but its just a quick fix, i need it to warm up outside other wise im in trouble :wtf:

update:

so right now my garden looks like im growing 4 very different strains. (ill try and get some pics up asap) the packet said 8 weeks, im on week 6, the 3 leaf which is my most dominant sativa probably has at least 6-8 weeks left, infact she looks only about a quarter the way through literally only last weeks started developing trichs :wtf: the others are all at different stages of bud growth too,

i think there might be two factors, genetics is my main reasoning, i did some more research and its the same story, but every independent review said regardless of what phenoy u get the nugs were worth the wait! lol i freakin hope so coz this looks like its gonna take time! my other is that of a school boy error in having my light timer at 13 on 11 off and had that run for the 1st 4 weeks! (new timer) im now 12.5 dark and 11.5 light, im hoping this gives em the extra nudge to think winter is fast approaching lol and just as a back up iv germed 4 blueberry gums, a bubble gummer (freebe from female seeds who i personally dont rate very high at all due to my bigbudx whitewidow, so hopefully they redeem with this one) something called a dark star? it was also freebe, checked it online and it was a £40 seed! bangin haha. and a ladyburn 1974, an old favorite and something else but i lost the tag so she is no name, i think it might be a kush of sorts? they all popped andare in the ground now so just a case of waiting, debating outdoors or new veg room, i dont want to be growing all the time, thinking if i get enough to last me till next summer ill be a happy chappy haha! anyways hopefully get a camera sorted this week and show you what im workin with here, peace

this one is the 3 leaf, PC packet states indica dominate, where as she is looking very sativa dominate, as are the other 2. only the shorter bushy one is picking up the pace with her 1st turn in pistol colour today, just few on the turn but probably at least another 4 weeks min.
apologies on the close ups, borrowed a friends cam, need to sort mine asap!

side note: all 4 bubble gummers have sprouted and are sitting in the window sill pretty :thumbsup: hopefully the pick and mix freebe gals will make an appearance tomorrow

Killer garden. I actually planned to start my first grow with pineapple chunk, but somewhere got distracted and went with white rhino instead. Got the pc seeds still, though, and do think they'll be next.
