Take a trip to a garden store if ya can, they should have a wide variety of soils to choose from. Yes I would invest in a PH tester. I found that w/ Pro-Mix + my nutes my ph Stayed between 6.6-7.0. You will also find a wide variety of ferts and nutes, and should ya want to use the net to order I recommend TheBigTomatoe.com cheap and shipps fast.

im really tired so heres pictures and ill describe them tomorrow some time. peace.

They look great other then a little light burn.

Look nice and green + bushy. Best of luck.

yo dude i would flush for a dew days and switch it into flower now. good luck

yoh this is the first time ive used this but i have a budding white widow clone and three g 13 seedlings so could you hit me up on this

thanks guys. and i cant crazy train. im waiting for my friend to order lights for me hes taking forever which is pissing me off. but yeah. im going to as soon as i can.

420 boy you got pics or something i could look @?

ok so you in the first picture of the day 60 photos. you can see how big the fan leaves are getting again and im just wondering what should i do since theyre once again taking the light away from the bottom... i know i shouldnt cut them but i might not have a choice..

put some lights around the side of the plant and not just on top, thats the beauty of a cfl grow. you can put the lights about 3 inches from the plants and be ok. how are your temps and what kind of ventilation do you have?

dude i know its tempting to cut them off but don't do it, i did that and learned my lesson. it puts alot of stress on the plant and it redirects energy from upward and outward growth to just trying to regror what you chopped.

Do not cut them, just neatly tie them down, or back. Do Not Cut Them. Your girls look great. Goodluck when ya go to flower. I'll be back to check in.

I cant wait to see when she goes into flowering!

i just surrounded her now. i have pictures. ill explain the set up once i post them. but its about 85 degrees with a fan running constantly. im going to flower ASAP!

But ZooBear, how would i tie them down? theyre at the top? any recommendations ill take it.

And thank you all. im going to post pictures right now

ok so her name is "Miss Pretty Lady". she started off in a peat pot with another plant. on a 18/6 light ratio after 3 days i moved her out in her own pot with about 6 inches diameter and 5 inches tall. she was in a small room only about 19 inches high with two 6500k 26w cfl's on her. she was in that room for 40 days then she was moved to a metal cab. where she is now. she went under a lot of heat stress so i HAD to cut her fan leaves. during this process she bushed out and grew beautifully. now shes growing off of 4 6500k and one 26w 2700k. it gets about to 85 degrees during the day and 55-60 degrees at night. there is a constant fan blowing when the light is on which the light ratio is still 18/6. today shes on day 62. i will flower as soon as i get the bulbs. thank you for you interest and enjoy.

looks nice and bushy cant wait to see her flowers

yeah i checked her today and she bushed out more!!!! but the top light went out so she's growing sideways a little.

EXO damn man lookin good iam adout to look at the rest of your thread.i have 5 cfls,aerogarden pro200,24inch florecent tube.check my thread out iam 22 days into flowering 4 girls budin real nice in aerogarden and 1 girl in soil thats 13 inchs tall and is starin to bud also have 3 goin outside https://www.rollitup.org/aerogardeners/170475-aerogarden-41.html

thanks man. ill check it out now.

Well being that your not flowering her yet, I would not worry about bushiness. She is going to stretch out and grow once you switch to 12/12 light cycle.

I had a similar problem w/ the light not being able to penetrate the lower half of my plant. My solution was to space my girls out as much as I could and jerry-rig a light bulb to the bottom of cab pointing up... doing this helped me tremendously.

Do not cut the fan leaves... your plant will need them.
