Good job so far. If you aren't already, you may want to consider adding some molasses to your watering schedule (2 TBS per gallon). This will help them plump up. If you are using CFLs, try and get a few more to make the buds bigger. If HPS, maybe move a little closer. Other than that, looking nice and healthy. Good luck the rest of the way.

how meny lights and wot wattge are you useing

i have 5 lights, 3 23w's and 2 42w's. i really want a hps but for one i dont have the money and 2 i dont have the vertical height for it. as soon as i get a couple extra bucks im gonna go out and get some more lights either a couple more 42w's or maybe try to find like a 150w cfl. also i was thinkin of trimmin all the lower buds and leafs off the plant leaveing just the top 1/2 - 1/3. would this A) make the plant focus on growing the top buds bigger and fatter or B) cause more stress than its worth??? i was just thinkin if i can just get an isolated area of buds to concentrate what light i have on and just get rid of the others that it would make those isolated ones better?? any truth to this statement??

oh and about the molases what kinda should i use? just buy some from the store or is there a special kind that i would need to get at the hydro shop?

Dab, removing the lower bud sites is fine and will allow the plant to focus on the upper buds. That's the concept behind the Sea of Green (SOG). You will lose some growing time but you'll be rewarded with bigger buds higher up the plant. Be careful NOT to cut fan leaves, unless they are shading some promising buds.

The regular Grandma's Blackstrap molasses is what most use. The black bottle with the yellow label.

awesome well i think thats what i might do. all those lower bud sights are just not getting any light i just wasnt sure if cutting them off would be worth the while. so u guys think it would be the way to go??

i wood not trim that plant any moor as it looks perfect to me. is it just one plant? as if it is then it will have a good covering of light just try and have manly 2700k lights. at this stag its not worth cuting or choping that plant it will just give it stres

dabull69 · #10 08-08-2007, 03:28 PM

yeah it is just one plant lol. and yeah 4 out of 5 of my bulbs are 2700k. yeah im still debating. anymore oppinions??
