Apostle,

I guess I should read before I answer. If you want to use that 600w for cuttings and it's too much light, maybe try indirect light. Never tried it, but if you had the light on or near the floor pointing up towards a flat white panel that is above your tray of cuttings, the reflected light would be way less intense. The heat would also be directed away from the plants. Adding a fan to blow the hot air away would help too. I don't know if it will work but you could experiment on cuttings that aren't weed so failures wouldn't be so costly. Good luck

600w is too much for cuttings, they're not strong enough.. they need something weaker especially cus of the weak undeveloped root system..

but.. whats up with those plants??? did u flower them from birth? can u give me details on your process? that shit looks amazing.. they're so small n the headie looks awesome!

I'm happy to see your plants grew some type of buds on them, but it looks like you grew the seeds 12/12 light cycle from the start. On your next grow, try growin them on a 18/6 light cycle for 1 month to 1 and a half months. Then put them on them on the 12/12 light cycle untel harvest time :thumbsup: . This way your plants will be a lot bigger and a lot more Buds ...

I think the reason they've got only fan leaves and main colas is the strain ... I heard that lowryders will do that ... and he said they are.

how old are those plants man? ive always wondered what a plant that big would flower like.... hmm im baked and having wierd ideas but i have 9 small plants that i have and have no need for ( i have 12 other plants flowering now and im going to try cloneing instead of seeds).. anyway would plants this big flower.. just for a bit of fun and a few buds

[bud breath420]

thnx man but they are from seed.... would that change anything? yeah im just running out of space to put them i would love to see them turn out like apostles they look cool ...

I grew these from seed in early april the smaller ones a few weeks later. So they are about 4 1/2 months old. How do they compare to the size of other plants at this age? I've been suggested a few things to do with them as well which are....

a. Repot them with the stalks deeper so the colas aren't so high.

b. Use netting so its like thai stick.(i'm unsure on what to do with this though)

c. just prop them up with sticks

what do you think off these.

PS.

heres a little break down of what i did

1. Put seeds between damp paper towls under 2 plates in a warm cupboard.

2. After germination planted ice seeds in jiffy peat pots & placed in propagator.

3. Watered a little bit when the humidity got down

4. They seemed to stretch loads at this point realler fast some of them fallin over so i uses cocktail sticks to prop them up.

5. Planted a pack of northern lights about 2 weeks down the line using same process.

6. As they got two large for the propagator & roots be gan to show on the exterior of the pots i put them straight into large pots with cana-coco
medium.

7.Used a timer which after 2 days fused on so i removed it and have been turnin the lights on and off at irregular times generally about 15 hrs a day.

**I've also been using formulex nutrient solution in moderation from time to time.

man your grow is awesome.... its hurting my head thinking how a 600w light could make your plants stretch like that... wierd.. the pics of the plants i posted were under a flouro!!... can you send a pic of your light ... and maybe an update on your ladies......
