alright duders. i'll give her another week and see what's up. i feel really good about this one. fuck the cfl naysayers - these look and feel super dense. :D

i've read things about clear, cloudy, and amber trichomes, but i can't really tell what state these are in. i'm partially colorblind. strain: unknown, bagseed nutes: veg: fish emulsion (5-1-1), vigoro (10-10-10); flower: mg bloom (15-30-15), tiger bloom (2-8-4) lights: veg: 8x 32w 6400k cfls...

looks very green and healthy. you must be only on week 2 or 3 of flowering because there's barely any bud development.

4100k is suitable for "doing nothing"

i think you misunderstand what i mean by production. i don't mean final yield or anything like that, just the efficiency of the plant's growth. if you are cutting anything off, it is detrimental, even if only temporarily. it harms the growth efficiency of the plant. while this may be...

well, some things to consider: - how much production ability would you be losing if you cut that big healthy leaf off? - since you're using CFLs, the light penetration fades very quickly. will it be worth the sacrifice of a closer, healthy, larger leaf to try to promote further away, smaller...

looks like you're in veg and are already out of room. what now?

actually, you can have too much light, even if the heat is fine... if your leaves begin to curl downwards, it could be because they are too exposed.

it's about the same as a huge dark cloud covering your plant for hours... it'll be fine.

... ... wait what?

the imagery painted by your post has me laughing too hard for any sort of serious reply

looks very nice. i'm on my third all-cfl grow now, and your buds look even nicer than my last grow which i was very happy about... gives me hope :] maybe i'll buy an actual strain and stop with the bagseed... what kind of soil did you use?

buy 6500k lights. really. it's not expensive.

i mistakenly used 2700s for two weeks of veg on my first grow... next time around, i had it right, and compared: under the 6500ks, they grew at least 100% faster. just buy some 6500ks. you're really screwing yourself if you don't. you can keep the reds for flowering... you can never have...
