Looking good. Based on the development your not more then 4-5 weeks into flowering (at the most), so it's going to be at least another 3-4 weeks and could be as much as another 8 on the Sativa. The thread anonymouse mentioned is a good place to learn what to look for, and I also recommend it.

On the question of how early you can start making it rain- If you are like me and start from clones it's possible to start making it rain about 10-14 days after you have first transplanted your clone into it's permanent pot, but you wan't to go easy on it the first few times. The plants ability...

Moussa, You must have bought one of the larger bottles of dyna grow, but no worries. You'll end up using it eventually anyway. You can order the Jacks classic online if you can't find it at one of your local store, but I'd order more then just that to help make the cost of shipping...

Well, another 4 days have gone by, and not a lot has changed. Surprisingly enough the plant that got crushed seems to be healing itself, and all of the partially attached branches that i tied back tight to the stalk are still alive and green. It's definately slowing the plants overall growth...

Jacks is good stuff, but it does require a supplementary nute because it lacks all the neccesary micronutrients. Not sure about the one you're using since I have no idea what it's NPK values are, but you don't need a flowering nute to supplement Jacks, or anything else thats supposed to make...

It would work that way. I have a magnetic ballast for my 400w veg light, but my 600w flowering light (which is where the CMH would do the most good) is digital.

They'll grow, but they won't grow as fast or as big as they will with a more powerful light. They also won't pack on as much bud, and the buds won't be as tight. With the type of system your describing you are going to want to keep the light no more then 3-4 inches above your plants , and even...

Well, it's harvest time for the remainder of the Opiums tomorrow morning, and I'm going to Tom Sawyer it. I've done all the harvesting myself up to now and have my sister/brother in law so anxious to be allowed to get involved that I'm going to get to sit back and supervise while they do all the...

Hmmm. I suppose that will work since your just starting them inside, but it still seems to me that you would be better off getting a single 400 or 600w HID that would cover pretty much all of them, and that would get them to grow to a larger size and develop a better root mass before you...

You aren't going to get anywhere growing on a windowsill unless it's a windowsill that gets 16+ hours of direct sunlight every day. You really don't need a bunch of equipment to grow a few plants, but it is more complicated then simply sticking them on the window ledge and watering them from...

Just a thought here- I know the conventional wisdom is that closer is better when it comes to lights, but I've noticed that 400w HID's can cause some heat related problems when they are less then 20" from my plants. It doesn't feel too hot (i.e. it passes the hand test), but moving the lights to...

I just changed my avatar to show the most recent picture of one of my blueberries. It was taken towards the middle of the third week of flowering on a plant that had been vegged for 4 weeks (started from a 3-4 inch clone). The person in the background is about 6'5", if that helps put it's size...

The One, Heat is a legitimate issue, but the cost to run a single 400w HID should be less then $15 a month when your running it 18/6 and less then $10 when you go to 12/12. Where it starts to get expensive is when your running multiple lights, fans, exhausts, etc.

Jumbo, I get you. I'm just getting to the point where I have enough extra plants available to really start experimenting, so I'm still used to needing to be really cautious about what I do with my plants. I'm sure a month or two from now when I've started harvesting every two weeks and never...

Ah, ok, so your talking about selectively cutting lower leaves to force the plant to suck the energy out of them and discard them quicker then it normally would. I suppose that could work, though it still seems like it would add some stress to the plant, and could make it more susceptible to...

Day 100 (64 of flowering): 70-85 during light, 62-70 at night. Humidity=25-30% Well, this grow is definately taking longer then advertised. I've completely harvested two plants now, and one of the other four MAY be ready sometime this week. The first plant I harvested turned out to have a...

Jumbo, Experimenting is a good thing, but somehow i can't see how cutting off the plants factories and storage batteries is going to help it produce better buds. I can see why people would feel that cutting off all the extra leaves would force the plant to put all its effort into bud...

I may end up doing that if these branches don't heal back to the plant, though right now I've got enough clones potted that I'm taken care of for the next 3 rotations. Figured I'd share some pictures of the oldest pair of blueberries I have going currently (week 3 of flowering). Luckily these...

Guess it's about time for another update. The last week has gone pretty well overall, but I had a minor disaster today. My 600w flowering lights hooks pulled loose and dropped the whole thing into my garden. I got lucky because i was home at the time and it only landed directly on one plant, so...

Riddle, I think I must have offended the Ganja Gods or something. My 600w flowering light decided to pull it's hooks loose from the ceiling today and took a header into my garden. Luckily it happend while I was home and it only directly landed on one plant, but it tore the one it did hit up...
