My grow log: Heres looking at you kid

I'm gonna put them to rest for 6 hours Took a few pics... You can notice the difference in a 24 hour time period. The little leaves that were just coming out now have pretty much created a wall.

The only thing is the other side of the plan that wasn't being LST'd is sorta small. I picked up another 42watt cfl which I was thinking of placing on the side that hasn't been growing for the day to try and even it out.

I think whats paying off for me is getting those lights as closely as I can its nuts. Its a month old now to :jointsmile:

I mean I might be crazy but I put them into a solid 18/6 for the last 5 days and now they're starting to Pre-Flower... the plants a little over a month old now I don't know what to do My options, continue to let it veg and try and clip some clones. And when I put it into 12/12 for flowering do I need to have the flowering light bulbs right away or can I get away with having only 2 42w 2000k bulbs (warm temp flowering bulbs) and having the cool lights for continue general growth, or do they all need to be for Flowering/

You can see that there was a little bit of uneven growth in the back of this one.
The following two pictures are one side of the plant, and the other side so each picture is a different spot. The leaves aren't very thick and full not even the well developed, though the bigger bottom fan leaves do look nice I suppose its normal for them to be so much whisperer at the top.

Any comments or advice would be appreciated I get discouraged posting when people don't reply once a while, especially now some help would be appreciated....

Don't worry, when things look fine people just pass threads on by, think of it as a memoir to look back on once you've smoked her.

The plant you showed is definitely a female, is preflowering, but is just fine as is. I believe it can be kept in a vegetative state for quite some time while preflowering by sticking to that 18/6 light cycle.

I'm getting ready to switch to 12/12 in a few days, as I'm a week ahead of you.

Anyway, all looks well. Keep at it!

What about the lighting question, or do people just not switch bulbs usually and throwing in a 2000k bulb will just make the plant that much stronger? Then I dunno where to try and clip a clone from, like where on the plant would it be a good idea.. its very bushy on the one side and not as full on the other side, so maybe there and then that'll let some extra light in. Or I guess I could clip flowering clones and get some sticks of bud haha

Shes looking great. The point of LST-ing is that the underside wont have much growth at all. All the branches that would have grown on the other side will now grow upwards. You need to get her to the point where shes completely doubled over, so that the bend is in fact slightly higher than what would have been the top of the plant.

To clone, you cant just use one of the branches that just has a big old fan leaf at the end, you need to pick a healthy branch that has secondary branches growing out of it.

give it lots of fosforus high nutes and those buds will get fat in a couple of weeks

Hey KL! Good job man. If you're flowering, get some more light in there.

[KL4D4]

Odd how I get two posts out of the blue!

At least it gives me a reason to post again.

This plant has been in Flowering for only 2 days so far but by the end of the week I can't wait to see the next stage of the plants life. I also went and picked up some potting soil and threw some perlite mixed that up and re-potted the plant, when I took the other one out of its old container the roots would have run out of room to grow soon they were peaking into the aquarium stones I place at the bottom of my pots so I just loosed up the root ball a little bit and watered her and took some pics before she was put down for her 12 hours nap. 7pm-7-am is darkness and of course the opposite for light time. I wanted to mimic the way it was outdoors currently here in MN.

I saw you post that Phosperus advice in the other forum too, would a commercial 15-50-15 bloom formula work well, or do I need to go after something else to accomplish this?

Hopefully with the 5 lights I have going on it now, it'll be alright to flower with. A mix of 2000k and 6000k bulbs

THanks for the help@1
