O cool...my hood.12inchx12...

That strain suppose b good yielder...

It yields good mid grade flowers. The buds get huge i did wwxbb and nlxbb and both looked exactly the same and both had buds from bottom of stem to top. If your just into getting alot and not qaulity go with it. I would grow both again for a cash crop but not for personal.

Because now the next set of leaves are yellowing... I'm getting frustrated I dont understand what my plant needs... my soil drains well it drys out in a day I now have to water everyday. I do have fungus gnats but there aren't much of them. The growth isn't stunted its growing normally yet the leaves are turning yellow with green veins which is exactly like a magnesium deficiency.

Next set higher up showing same yellowing between veins and necrosis on edges. This has gotta be magnesium.

No its moving up the whole plant now . Gonna spray epsom salts tonight and if that doesn't work I dont know what the heck is wrong.

She's hungry....

I finally have it figured out I am 100% sure is mg deficiency cuse now the leaves are praying. I know its mg because the yellowing starts in the middle of the veins but the veins stay green. Gonna add 1/4 teaspoon Epsom salt to a 30 oz sprayer once a week an hopefully she feels better. I'm Using Dr. teals Epsom salt soaking solution it was only 5 bucks for 6 lbs and it is a very fine powder so it dissolves nicely.

Here you can see the mg deficiency progressing to the upper leaves.

Notice the lowest leaves praying for mg!


My next grow I will Add in dolomite lime and mycorrhizal fungi and that shouldn't give me any deficiency problems at all.

Completely lost track of how old it is oh well. Probably gonna run it in veg for another 2-3 weeks. I tied down the top of the plant to get more tops.
Also added in 2 more lights. Temps are 80-88 in the day time and 70s at night. This plant reeks of dank! Cant wait to build the diy ona bucket.

Added Taotronics 12 watt led for a broader spectrum.

Is the top tied down enough to redistribute the auxin's?

While its good that you have it tied a bit to the side to allow more light to the other nodes I wouldn't say its enough to redistribute auxins much. You quite literally want to tie that bitch down at a 90 degree angle. Also its looks great but have you considered transplanting her once before you switch to flower? Good rule of thumb is when the plant is as tall as the bucket shes in its time to give her more room to grow. Good luck plant looks quite healthy.

Yea I was just worried the stem would snap. I will tie it down a little more if she lets me. I dont have any plans to transplant her.

I like to use washers as weights to tie mine down. I take string and use a fish hook and i just hang washers as needed.
How much space you working with? I only ask cause you said that you didnt want to transplant it wich makes me think you are limited to space. If that is so then you should flip that girl now cause she stretches. I grew mine to 12 inches in #7 pots. When they hit 12 inches i had to flower cause they stretched to about 4' from bottom of floor to top of plant a #7 pot is around 16".
I decided to do one as well

Yea another NL x BB grower! I grow in small section of a sliding closet it is 31 L x 22 W 80 H. I am a little limited in L x W but height is spacious. So your pot is 16 inches tall? Mine is 11 inches and my plant is almost 12 inches not counting the LST. I am also doing a scrog.

Just gotta wait for em to fill the screen now!

Hey man I've just started a NLxBB from world of seeds that I got as a freebie from herbies, is this the same thing or is your seed from someone else? Also If I were you I might try to find an alternative from that screen because it'll be a bit of a bitch trying to get the plant untangled from it later when you harvest, I use string so I can just cut it out. Then again to each his own. Good luck though buddy I'll be watching for reference to see how the NLxBB behaves under a screen!

Thanks My NL x BB is from world of seeds at Herbie's seed bank. Yea ill probably use a string next grow. I'm only growing one plant so I'm vegging her for a long time to get the best yield I can get. Also yesterday I added mycorrhizal fungal spores to help.

How did you grow it when they were around five days when they sprout from the soil? And what light's you were using and how close they were to the seedlings

What Wattage? And everything can you post everything

Not really. I've used this screen before and most of the plant should be under the screen...but like you say; to each their own

After it sprouted I tied the stem to a cue tip with a fan blowing on the stem so it wouldn't fall down while training.
