First indoor grow

This is my first indoor grow from 12\12 from seed. I started 1 /15 with 4 85 watt cfls 2700 4 23 watt 6500 in fox farm ocean. Tell me what you think. thanks

Looks like you have a lot of stretching going on there. Like the guy above said move the lights closer. Also what are the genetics of the plants you are actually growing? Is 12/12 what you really think the lighting should be? I am doing my first grow as well and since I know the genetics of my plants I found out that a 20/4 lighting is more suitable. They're looking great though from what I can see. I am using x2 85 watts so I cant even imagine how much light those put out, it must be crazy. + rep and ill be watching this as it goes.

Also I would look at the LST thread that is on here it would be helpful and benefit larger yields on your plants if you were to do this since they have stretched soo far

They are bag seed from 2 different strains. Only two are starting to strech and the others are not think it is the strain. Thanks for the look and the advice.

Here are some more pics. thanks for lookin

How and when do I start LST. Iam mostly a outside grower just trying something new.

Drill ahole in you pot near the top so you have something to tie whatever you use to tie down with (I use normal string).
Then tie a knot near the top of your plant (around 1st node) and pull the plant down very GENTLY.
Your just tying your plant down it's real simple.
Bend your plants around so they become more flexible before your start the final bend.
The bending really increases the plants lower growth = more bud in the end

And only bend the plants that aren't too far into flower. I don't LST at all when the plants flowering, I want all their energy to go to the buds.
The key is to start LST'ing them while there real young. You have some plants where you can start now. Good luck.

What is the best thing for controlling smell ? Thanks for any advice.

This is from my journal that Nickyp posted. It's a good idea and it'll work well.

"Buy a cheapie carbon filter/fan combo off ebay for 150 and just put it in the grow room, you dont need to vent it out, it will scrub the air clean by constantly cleaning the air in that one room."

Some new pics from the grow. Thanx for looking

Day 42 bro, half way through. There stretching nicely It only gets better from here. Keep up the good work

They are getting bigger Here are some new pics. Thanks for looking.

How do you think they are doing flowering for 37 days?

Looks like there on schedule. They've really filled in too, that whole stem is going to be one big bud. To bad you didn't clone em, there good looking strains. I guestimate prob 2-3 more weeks, but it all depends how each individual plant looks. Do you have one of those scopes to check the trichomes? Thats the best way to determine plant maturity.

No I dont but will get one I think 3or 4 weeks!

Here is my biggest

good node spacing, next round you think you'll try lst or topping?

I have some rasberry cough ,Ice,and bubblegum comming for next grow I will try to top. I have 6 in there and it is cramped will only do 3 next time . Thanks for the reply OrzeO

Nice, I've got some seeds on the way too bro. I just ordered Barney's Farm LSD & got all the freebies along with it: Burmese Kush, Kushage, S.A.G.E, Blue Hash, Heavy Duty Fruity, Darkstar, G13 Labs New Strain, Critical +. Currently, I am veggin 2 Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze's and 2 Reserva Privada'a OG Kush's (all one month old), and I just planted a C99 hybrid a week ago.
I'm trying to get 6 different good strains that I can run perpetually. It takes time to find truely good genetics, so clone all your plants before you flower them so once you do find that awesome plant, you won't lose it. You also bypass the shitlong seedling sprout time/ slow beginning growth. IMO thats the way to go. If you start a new journal with this new batch of seeds let me know. Keep up the good work Green Thumb3.

Here is an update on pics.They are on day 60 from seed . I think 2more weeks till done trychomes are cloudy and clear hairs are just starting to turn red. What do you think?
