It's too difficult to leave it alone...it's growing at an really fast rate now and every night when I get home, i've gotta take a peek at her and see how she's progressing...but maybe you're right about the lights...don't fix what isn't broken, right?

Quick question - if i change up the light schedule from 18/6 to 20/4 would it make much of a difference? Or should I just leave the lights be?

Without being able to look at the trichs, I can't tell for sure, but from the pix i would say no...you might need about another 2 weeks. Are any of the white hairs beginning to recede a little and turn reddish in color?

And that's why I need the clear headed people at RIU to help me out ;-)...I didn't even think of that! Thank you!

Thanks you very much, already been there my man and learned a lot...will check in some more as well!

I raised the lights a bit this morning as tekdc911 suggested. They are now about 10 cm (4 inches) from the top part of the plant: The little ICE plant may stretch because of this but she's gonna have to wait for her bigger sister to mature and once she moves out, the room will be all...

I've heard that as well, just didn't have the room and equipment (as well as electricty budget) for an HPS set-up. I was thinking that with the heat generated, a small box like the one I'm using would generate too much heat too quickly. Please correct me if I'm wrong!

The light I choose because it was reccommended as a wavelength which was good for both flowering and vegetation. In fact, it emits (or so it says) 25% 6400K and 75% 2700K, so I thought I'd give it a try to see...I was trying to avoid having to buy two bulbs...lazy I guess As far as the smell...

I thought about the fire issue with the plastic and had some anxious moments while I was at work just thinking about it but the light never gets that hot (thank god). I can even touch it without too much discomfort after it's been on for 18 hours...I say without too much discomfort because...

No, the dwarf is actually the one on the right. the white ice is just a seeding on the left which i had to get started before i throw it outside...regarding the lights, I have raised them cause as you mentioned the nodes were real tight and dense...i'm hoping for a little stretch to lighten...

About time! My first real post, so take it easy on me, please...:hug: So, I have already 1/2 sucessfully completed a grow which I did on my terrace last year. I say half because the plants did not meet their full potential and one of the three died a gruesome death as it was beginning to...

I had/have a similar problem. My girls were being disturbed by a orange street lamp which was basically shining on them all night long, even though the light wasn't intense. They wouldn't flower and finally I started covering them with a black garbage bag, making like a tarp over them and low...

cannibal cannabis!

Just hope that the soil isn't too rich in N...plants in flowering don't need that much N...just enough..in any event, I think you'll get there...

from the pix those don't look like they're ready...they actually look like the first 2-3 weeks imo. The stretching might account for those popcorn buds...the claw i can't see, but normally that's too much N also the really green leaves tell me that..when did you start giving her flowering nutes...

and remember, a lot of weed is grown in huge plots where the growers are only looking for quantity and don't have the time or interest in getting rid of the males, so a lot of the buds are seeded...it's cheaper probably in the long run but you sacrifice on quality because the females are using a...

They look like they're trying to reveg? Not experienced enough to say 100% but the leaves and their shape look like reveg. Idk if that's because of the heat stress, lack of flowering nutes, but it's too bad because it looks like you were quite a ways along in flowering...hopefully a more...

with the thinner leaves I would tend to think a bit towards indica...what's the height on that girl? really, though, wait until it matures and you can smoke the fruits of your labor...then you MIGHT JUST MIGHT be able to tell if it leaned one way or the other...but i kind of think with the...

mine seem to prefer a little southern rock

I decreased the watering because flowering wasn't kicking in and for some reason it worked and the plants started flowering. I don't know why and it could have been just a coincidence (i.e., the plant was about to flower already before the watering experiment)
