Some tips for watering:

Make sure your pot has decent drainage holes and put a tray or what ever underneath it to catch run-of water. To check if you plant needs water, put your finger in the soil around your plant, if it feels dry for about a few cm down its time to water it, give it water gently untill you can see some running out at the bottom, this means your soil is saturated enough. Remember, your soil needs to be damp, not wet! Let your plant suck up the moisture it already has before adding more. Hope this helps (:

Thank you good people. I thought that I don't need the leaves that's why I torn them. I will let it soak for like 12-24 hours more and will start doing the new water cycle.


Can anyone reccomend me a flowering light schedule should it be 16/8 or 12/12 or what?

for flowering you need a 12/12 light cycle, to simulate the short winter days, this will make the plant go into flowering, know that because you trimmed so heavily this proces will take a long time and yield will be limited, but don't give up! it's all a learning proces, take this knowledge to your next grow and you will see yourself improve untill you are a growing pro! Good luck and be patient, post lots of pictures so we can tell you if something's wrong!


EDIT: More watering shizzle, make sure you empty your tray underneath the pot, stagnant water underneath your roots will cause fungi and other bad stuff you don't want for your girl (:

Nerd you are restoring the faith in the sleepy and uneducated grower that's hiding somewhere deep in me lol

Thats the spirit =D if you still have some seeds why not try to grow em! Everyone can grow if they put their minds to it, keep us posted on those new babies, and treat them well!

Ive got to hand it to you man!! Awesome job.

Just keep listening to these good people and dont get discouraged. I can tell from your posts and questions, you have confidence and knowledge in your actions.

But one thing you need to realize and come to terms with is for the most part, your plant is running the show. Take it slow man. She will teach you everything, and reward you for your patience. I barely got good at leaving my girls alone.

Theyre just like women!! They NEED your attention, but you give them too much and they dont want it anymore.

Keep em green bro-dizzle!!

Sincerly,
Mr. D.J. Apeshit

Guys I still do have an unaccomplished arrangement with this little baby so let's grow this one first and think about the other ones later.

These are just snapped photos from the garden :joint: :leaf: :peace:

Compare those to your last pictures! See what a difference some decent watering, patience and maintenance can do? keep it up and these will give you some decent bud (;

So you reckon I should keep the 12/12 cycle? I will make the new beginning these days and store the new collection in a dark wet place :weed:

yes keep the lights at 12/12 untill harvest, they will soon start to fatten up those buds, now i'm not sure about this (someone with more experience back me up on this) but i think once the buds get bigger the fan leaves will start to die off and turn brown, in this case it's OK to cut them off, since they're dying of they're no longer working for the plant, only costing energy, so the sooner you cut off dying fan leaves around the bud the more energy goes to making bud (: not sure about this though someone will have to confirm this for me :p

I dont know if its time yet to start with the new generation already, will probs take another few weeks before harvest, dont think you can store seedlings that long in a dark wet place, but again, need someone to back me up on this :p

For some of the things I think I can back you up because of the experience, for others like bud growing and things I still haven't been there but I hope that I can experience that feeling soon as well.

Peace and keep blazing :leaf:

FOR FUCKS SAKE - YES!!!
There's 16 hours light, 8 hours dark - The Veg phase to grow the plant
and
12 hours light, 12 hours dark - The Flower phase to make her bud,
(It simulates autumn - like you've been told already, twice).

Stop asking about the light schedule
There's only two
and you're already into flower.

They'll end up thinking all Brits are fucking retarded.

Actually, if anything, it's 18 hours light and 6 hours dark. just sayin'.

You can also use 20/4 or 24/0. it all depends on what strain you've got and what works for you best. Most photoperiod plants prefer 18/6 and 12/12 but some people swear that 24/0 works best for them in veg. some people flower with 13/11 or 11/13, and some Auto-flowering plants prefer 20/4. It's not exact science. It's whatever works best for you in that particular situation.

You're still new at this so I'd say stick with the basics and use 18/6 for veg and 12/12 for flowering.

Good luck!

Yo, for fucks sake before you take the piss on me I would like to double-check as I almost fucked it up as much as I can and I would want to harvest even 1 fckin bud,but let it be the nice one. Though about the retardation of your people pink cheaked people, I will keep my opinion for me as I see them real face cunts every summer. Now go have a wank and if you are not willing to help me, fuck off from my journal forever

ps thank god I'm not a pink brit ugly fatfuck

:peace:

hey redboy. i think that you want to get the best results like any one else would. but you got to crawl before you can walk. ive looked at all your pics and the best pic you uploaded was the one when you travelled for 3 days, simply because you left the plant alone. then after that you went down hill again by over watering and over trimming.

on the next plant you do just keep it basic just to get a successful grow under your belt then you can start thinking about training and various other techniques.

what type of light are you using btw cz it dont look like a cfl?

to get bigger buds you should jus only cut off the lower stems by doing this all the plants energy will be focused on the top buds instead of the lower popcorn buds.

im not puting you down. and i wish you all the best

where was this double check prior to you butchering your plants?

and this isnt a journal.

The double check was doomed to failure at that time and I had to show myself that I can kill a plant as fast as possible. Though 4 is my number, the lucky one so I am sure it is going to be a successful one.
