Flowering Stage

I am about just under 3 weeks into flowering and i think it is budding like a champ. lol but this is my first grow, learned a lot from this. Any ideas for next time or anything i can do now to increase budding and my yield at the end of my grow?

yea a reflector would help out alot!!! trust me my first grow was airy buds b/c i didnt build a reflector, but my 2nd grow with a reflector buds was alot denser, also you can just lst no stress wat so weva to tha plant.

well here are some new pics.

i heard something about molasses and water. can anyone care to explain that to me please, and what it does

use 23w cfls they are 2700k which is the red end of the spectrum which will help the plant recognize its flowering and it helps alot. u take 2 tablespoons of molasses or syrup per 2 liters of water and water your plant with that. i use syrup and my buds double in size it stimulates root growth through the micro organisms

Found this.. maybe it'll help

I'm on my first grow and just started to flower (about 3 weeks in) my indica unknown strain. I've done the homework on using molasses and found about 1 to 1/12 tablespoons per liter is a good rule of thumb (sorry ladies). I feel in my small experience that it is helping to pack in the flowers. I am using a handful of 26 W CFL in warm and daylight to get a full spectrum out there. I am going to be switching over to all warm white this weekend. Good luck

Yea your gonna wanna switch those bulbs to 2700k if you havent already.

dood with the space you got go to htg suppy and pick up a 400 watt hps for 119$ you can add more plants to your space harvest way more! I just got mine yesterday and it fking rocks.

Are you serious? He has one plant growing in what looks to be a small box grow....

The ones in the picture are 2700K http://genet.gelighting.com/LightPro.../r00016v-1.pdf i have 6 of them and my box is 27 inch Length 16 inches Width 29 Height. decent size i think(maybe). But yea they are 2700K bulbs for flowering. When do i start using molasses or syrup....

ive been flowering for 2 weeks now and my plant is still trying to veg i think....it sucks

yea as soon as i switched my bulbs from 6500k to 2700k not even a week later it was budding. my plant is 3 weeks and 2 days in flowering

I'm using a Rubbermaid and my space is a little smaller then his by the looks of it. maybe Im high =]
But to me it looks like he could fit a nice little 400 watt hps. So yes I'm serious!

thanx man, i will look into that, but i know that switching lights for CFL makes the plant change into flowering, but with HPS do you keep nthe power off for 24 hours and then turn it back on to a 12/12

I am also looking into LED because they are cheap to run. and seen some really good reviews for it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fh9oGroryoc because it is cheaper and found where i can pick one up for $150

yo you got a really nice lookn plant..i had a ???...how long did it take intill you found out what sex it was??? its been 5 days into flowering for me and i got a little green thing poking out and 2 little white hairs not sure if it is the hairs im looking for..
