Can I Turn Lights to 12/12?

[SiXFeEtDeEp]

give it ANOTHER month? im on day 21-22. i checked that picutre out. on the 'weird you gotta see this" thread.

so alternading is when the leafs come out of dif spots of the stem and not in the same spot on the oppisite side? yeah all i got is single leafs out of the steams on each side of the steam on the same spot.

so i have to wait tell she JUST starts to zig zag. or do i have to a certin amount of zigs in the zags?

well should i start lsting her then?

quick question why an't my other babie growing at all. she gots teh first set of true leafs and thats it. she an't dead she just seems to be in a single state of mind (meaning she an't growing anymore but an't dead) she is develpoing yellow on the leafs that is outlined in brown.

also when do i top if i do top?

[kush07]

The earliest to top is around the fourth node. Since you have 5 you can top. I would only suggest topping if you have a limited grow space. Any stress you can avoid then I suggest you avoid it. Also, as stinky said, wait till the nodes alternate and the preflowers show. Then your plant is ready to flower. The wait is well worth it in the finished product.

Happy Toking :rasta:

As soon as you see the 1st zig in the zag it's ready.
LST is great to pass the time!

i got about 15-20 in. of grow space. what is more recommended? LST or Toping?

also i read up on LST but a few questions. are my Side leafs goin to turn into the main steam(s) and do the zig zag and is this goin to double the amount of time for veging?

[hairyboblovesthemob]

LSTing is awesome. I wish I knew about it before I would have LST'd my plant earliest. Let's see, when I LST'd my plant, all the side leaves turned towards the light and now it looks like I have a bunch of mini plants growing on this long stem.

[bejay]

would probably lst but with your limited space you may have to start flowering while its nice to veg until they are mature it isnt always possible if attempting to grow in small spaces they, will continue to grow during the first 3-4 weeks of flowering so you have plenty of time to still do some training.

The side leaves stay as they are, but a new stem will grow from the base of each fan.

What does 15-20in. mean?? Height?? Width?? Length?? If you only have that much height and your plant is already a foot tall, I would LST immediately and then probably switch to 12/12 to avoid running out of room.
