So this is my first time flowering. I am growing under a CFL and my plant is doing great. It will be 5 weeks into flowering on Monday. The thing is, it stopped growing completely. The hairs are staring to darken a little, but the main cola has been at the same height for about 4 days now...

my container is a 5 gallon which I gather is the going size for most growers. Thing is, it's been growing for about 5 months now, so I could see the possibility that it may be rootbound. The nutes I'm using are 5-15-5. All organic, its a mix of a plain organic 5-5-5 and 0-10-0 bat guano...

I don't think I have a lockout, my H2O ph is about 6-6.5 and my soil is around the same. I had slight nute burn a while back, so I let off and am now feeding only every other watering. Maybe I should switch to feeding every watering or up the dose? The nutes are dilluted to about 1/4 strength.

Lots of views, no ideas?

I'm about 2 weeks into flowering. I'm growing in a closet with one (big) CFL on at the timer's at 12/12. I water when its needed and fertilize about every other watering (depending on what the leaves tell me). This past week, the top has been doing great, but the bottom portion of the plant...

how humid is it in there? im new to this but from what ive seen, the leaves should be much skinnier than that. large fat leaves are generally a sign of high humidity and overwatering. How often are you watering and whats the temp in the room?

ok thanks, i guess ill have to wait a few more days to find out for sure.

thanks, so based on the oblong shape of the pods and the little pistil sticking out I'm guessing its safe to say its a girl? and those pods are what people call preflowers I'm guessing?

Hi everybody. With the help of people on this forum, I have successfully been working on my first grow. I used a big CFL, soil, and a strain called Carnival (feminized) off a online seed site. Its been slow due to the CFL and low temps I experienced in the winter, but I'm now about a week...

so I should just do it through the soil? do I just dissolve the nutrients in my water and then water normally? Should I use the nute water every time, or every other time? yes please. I heard that foliar is more efficient (ie the nutes get to the plant quicker and more effectively) than...

This is my first gro and based off of a number of guides I read online, I have been feeding my plants foilarly. I'm using an organic soil with no additives and organic nutes. My ratios are: Veg - 15-5-5 Flower - 10-30-10 I just wanted to get confirmation that A) foliar feeding is fine and...

what should i be looking for for preflowers? i havent seen any signs of flowering yet (but this is my first gro). I'm planning on starting flowering tomorrow but was hoping to wait until my clones rooted before moving it to flowering (purchased feminized seeds). the color may look blue, but...

thanks for the responses, I probably should have been more specific. I am using a CFL so the bulb is about 1" away but not nearly hot enough to burn. I am feeding foliarly (sp?) and only water with pure distilled water ~1/week. I stopped ferting when I had the gnats and just started up again...

My plant is pretty far into the veg state (actually its about 4 months in but lets not get into that). It's been growing strong, indoors under 20/4. Its fertilized w/ 15-5-5 once every other day. Recently I had fungus gnats and after a long battle, a 1" layer of sand on top managed to get...

thanks for the advice. It almost died when i over fertilized it so i figure thats why its so small still. Actually its been alive for well over 2 months. Its also very cold in my house as it sometimes drops to 55 or so although i dont believe the grow area gets below 60. I water around once...
