Starsailor, you don't sound 'thick' at all, just asking a question :-) LST is Low Stress Training but basically its using string or pins etc to pull or tie down the most vigorous growing shoots to encourage lower growth to catch up and to give the plant shape. Theres a thread running here on...

Day 47, 12/12 from seed. Yep, theyre not going too badly v12 :-) Touch of burn on some fans but budding up OK. Had a watering of biobizz 'bloom' today. The 2 cuttings I took are both rooted and potted up (pic below) And my very last Bubba O Kush seed WAS female so will be my first...

Hi DocBrown :-) You will see those buds begin to form now! By week 4 flowering you will have formed buds that will then gradually 'swell' as more and more pistils are thrown out. Just another week and you will see a big difference :-) Week 4 onwards is the best part though as growth is visible...

LST is the answer! Even with 12/12 from seed grows you can do it. Keep on pulling the tops down, right into mid flowering to spread the budsights as you would with a screen (scrog). Heres a shot of a 12/12 grown plant using lots of LST to stop that stretching :-) Hope this helps, dont be...

OK, what I see there firstly is essentially a reveg (you said it went outdoors after it started to flower indoors). With any reveg you will see that distinctive 'dying off' of the older growth as new growth develops. I can clearly see the new growth plus whats left of the old growth. Was she...

Good advice :-) Thats your reason, I have no doubt about that either! Its the same if night temps suddenly drop very low, exactly the same thing happens.... its the plants defense against cold. She will recover no worries. Btw, transplanting should never 'shock' a plant if done right, once...

Thanks john do, the Bubba O Kush is a long time favourite of mine, very sweet tasting :-) I'm certainly NOT out to suggest others grow 2 per pot, its just what works for me. Give it a few weeks and I'll post pics of the NL's closer to harvest time here :-)

Hi john do, thanks for contributing to the thread :-) 2 per pot is no problem! theyre in 8 litre pots. Thats plenty of room for 2 ........ I say this everytime I hear this...... I'm turned 50 and have been 'around' cannabis for over 30 years :-) I'm also a keen gardener generally and I grow...

Thought it may be of interest to some new growers to be able to see a stage by stage development of 4 Nirvana Northern Lights feminised seeds, from germination up to day 44 (current). *(I'm not saying that you should grow 2 per pot, its just the way I have done it for a long time, it works for...

Hi V12 mate :-) Cuttings are the way to go... BUT I do find seedplants more vigorous for 12/12 grows. That said I'm also switching to cuts from now, both NL cuts are showing roots through the jiffy plugs :-) Also, the last Bubba O Kush seed IS female :hug:so I'll pull her out and let her...

At 8 weeks into 12/12 you have little to worry about :-) Its really not that unusual to find a few odd seeds lowdown anyway, the reproductive instinct (self pollination) is very strong, but at that late stage they're never going to develop fully . Are they feminised seeds? Just asking because...

Good to see you back around RR :-) This is my favourite Rollitup thread! DocBrown..... "does it look OK?" you ask....... more than OK I'd say! .... looks bloody excellent :-) Picture of health there. Keep the pics coming? What strain is it? CV.

Fair question......BUT no, we are not 'autoflowering' and remember, its only the Ruderallis in the autos genetics that brings that trait. These plants simply respond to light cycles and thats all 'we' are doing :-) The 'autos' are very different (I have grown a few) and personally I dont like...

Hi mate :-) Yes, its odd how 2 plants are very short and the other 2 are are slower. All 4 showed sex within a couple of days of each other so I guess its just genetics. I have found before with growing Nirvana NL's that there are at least 2 obvious phenos, one tall and one short and bushy so...

Day 41, 12/12 from seed. More pics! Its clear now that one pot is ahead of the other into flowering as you can see. Also a shot of the 'armoury' I like to keep things simple.

Some facts to help you: Below is Northern Lights by Nirvana, feminised seeds. Soon as seeds cracked they were planted directly into large pots, (its better to let those roots stretch in a 12/12 from seed grow, you dont want anything to slow them down!). Showed sex (first pistils) at day 18...

Slide it carefully out of the pot and take a look /feel around the roots. You will know straight away if they are: (a) Underwatered, because it IS a possibilty! You should feel some moisture a round those roots and they should not be over warm. if its very dry around the roots its asking for a...

AfghanBoy, why not just run a single cabinet on 12/12 all the time and take cuttings to keep your perpetual harvest ticking over? Might be simpler than making seeds etc and to be honest the beauty of a perpetual 12/12 cycle is the ability to grow multiple strains in a single cabinet as said...

Thank you friend :-) I'm also happy with them so far. DaBull, I apologise but I dont understand your question, what are you refering to? UPDATE, DAY 39 FROM SEED, 12/12 grow from germination. Usual 2 shots for comparison. I'm going to try and stitch together all the pics so far into a...

'3 to 5 drops' is a STRONG dose of superthrive! As said above it can still burn those leaves. Honestly, superthrive works best down at the roots, and I would only ever use 1 drop per 2 litres of water personally. Root systems seem to love it :-) Fingers crossed for you but dont be surprised to...
