Hey guys I got my camera today and got some pic's ready. They are still doing great but still really short for the age. About 4-4.5". And they popped through soil around 26 days ago. Ive got in the box 4 27w cfl 5500k, and 2 42w cfl 2700k. I cannot find 42w 5500k cfl's anywhere, wallmart, home depot, lowes. Anyway here are the pics please give me any comments or concerns. I am also feeding it a tablespoon of blood meal every other watering and going to start watering with 30ml/gallon h2o2, but using only half gallon every other watering. I also went and picked up Buds for Less, what a great book I recommend it to any1.

here are a few more to compare their shortness, but yet they have so many nodes/leaves. In the last few of the pics before these you can kinda see where I topped/fimmed it. Yes I love the book, I think Ive read it about 2-3 times already and I just got it sunday. LOL, I just love looking at all the pics, and reading about what my plants can and could be!

Yes I have thought about it. I might start it in another week or so. I have about 3-3.5' tall of grow space so Im not really worried about them getting tall. But I know LSTin them would help a lot with those inner nodes.

Heres some more Mary Jane porn for ya pervs out there!! I am still skeptical on cloning I would like to clone this spot on the plant. Is this the right cut/spot to make the cut? Also what you guys think about LSTing them, which is the best method of doing so, and should I do something about fan leaves in the way yet, like tucking? Thanks a lot guys!!

Yh you wanna cut more then 1 clone and yh 45* \
And have you been giving it nutes coz the fan leafs look like they have burned off too much food

yea only thing I gave it was 2 tspn blood meal with 32oz h20. And been giving it h2o2. Should I reduce the blood meal a bit? how much and often should I give it that? So just cut my clone exactly right where I have it marked? I don't have much floor space for more clones. I need a skinny deep pot. One that is not so round in diameter.

Hey guys/gals, I just added two new 42w 2600k cfls. I know I wish I coulda got some 5500k ones, but only place is online and once I pay for atleast 4-6 (which I bought 2 so I have 4 42w 2600k cfls, and 2 27w 6500k cfls, and 8 40 t12's), and + shipping it would be more then a 150w hps. I was wonderin what is the heat/energy usage compared to what Im using now vs. the 150w-250w hps?

Since I added those 2 new 42w cfls, I have seen fast growth in 1-2 days, Ill hook ya up w/ some xxx's in a couple more days so youll be as ecstatic as me.

Here ya guys/gals go. This thing is really starting to take off. It is sucking up a lot of water also. I have been watering it about 32-48 oz of water every other day or so, now it seems like Im needing to up that to everyday now. Do you guys think I should LST this thing or just let it keep going the way it is, I still have about 2-3 more foot at least but am only planning on vegging this thing for 60 days. Thanks again, for any comments/suggestions!

Also, one more thing, you think I should get rid of my 4x 40w 4' t12 tubes? I mean are they just killing me energy wise? I was thinking if I get rid of those then I can add more 27w 6500k cfl's? What you think?

Heres some more updated pics for everyone. I still wanna know why it MAY be so short? I mean its bushier then hell but for over a month old its still shorter then a foot by far!! Nonetheless Im happy with the results Ive been getting. I just LST'd it the other night, I think it was monday night? Should I up the Blood meal to 2 sp every 48 oz of water you guys think? Should I just give it util I notice it start to burn too many nutes? What else can I give it to help it boom up a little more? I only wanna let it veg another 3 weeks. Anyway please let me know what everyone thinks, and once again THANKS!
:joint::peace:
