Second CFL Foot Locker Grow -Indica-

**ekofux** · 07-27-2012, 09:57 PM

Planted 5 seeds from a particular bag of some super nice indica on July 17th, 4 of which took root.

July 28, Only 2 sets of leaves on each so far, sprouts are a bit too far from the lights, causing them to lean and grow way too tall. Going to transplant into 16oz plastic cups asap and continue growing from there until signs of sex are shown. Plan to grow single plant under 3 CFLs until I get a 4th installed. Bi-watering feeding. Possibly scrog/topping combo (not sure yet, as I've never done it before).

Will update with pic shortly, feel free to post here

Hey bro, nice to see Olga produced a nice little stash from your last grow. Look forward to seeing how this one turns out for you. Do you have some books or cds or something you can use to lift the plants up closer to the light so that they don't stretch and lean too much on ya? As always, I'll be checking in from time to time.

Happy growing!

Transplanted them all, went somewhat successful. Put as much soil as I could around the stem to help prop them up but they're still too lanky to stay up. Hoping that they'll take hold and start standing on their own soon.

Lights are at a reasonable distance, hopefully close enough. Just time to start crossing my fingers and wait, I suppose lol. Question, though. When should I start feeding them? They're about 1 and a half weeks old right now. 4 weeks maybe?

July 30th, 13 days into veg, almost 2 weeks.

Everything is looking great. I might veg a little longer than usual this time to ensure that the single plant I end up with its nice and beefy. That's really all for my update though, just lettin em grow

What a difference two days makes. They look considerably better on the 30th than they did on the 28th ... probably just a little shock from the transplant. You mentioned when to give the first feeding. I typically don't do my first VERY MILD feeding until 3 - 4 weeks. I give about a quarter dose of what is recommended on the manufacturer's label, sometimes a little less. As the plants get older I increase, but still don't try to overdo it.

Lookin' good man!

Been a while since I've updated. I'm on day 20, I believe, of 18/6 lighting. Hugely noticeable growth day after day. Not sure how long I'm going to let them veg, but I'll be throwing them into 12/12 before too long. They all look very healthy, no droopy/dried/burnt parts yet and outstanding overnight growth.

Anyways, I've been taking pics nearly daily and will try to get a timeline of pics going on at the end of this grow. For now, I give you the past 4 days of growth (including today)
