hello everybody:leaf:

:leaf:this is my first grow. this as started as a litle experiment on my
balcony inside a little cup. then i moved her to larger pot with mixed soils, and then to a even larger pot with plagron royalty mix.

:leaf:in the mean while sun starts to lack. from there i started to put her in the closet from some hours(now almost always) with 3 tubes(right now with two more 25W cfl´s).

:leaf:i have not been couting her age but i belive in something between 3,5 weeks flowering maybe more!.

Lower leaves have been yellowing about some time ago. Also have some yellow dying tips, recently more. Very little curled under leaves also recently.
Monday I gave her half dose of a 3-5-7 fert.(first time) bought on a local store.

I know my buds are very small but i would like to harvest them!!


Any Help/Ideas!!??:weed:

your about half way through flowering. if you let them continue your buds will be 2-3 times the size they are now. if you harvest too early you won't get nearly as high, so its a huge waste to harvest now. BE PATIENT!!!

Hey there T.R.,

Your plants look good my friend, the minor discoloration is not much to be concerned with now, it looks to me like she's just in need of a bit more water. In flower she'll be drinking quite a bit. Also, if you're concerned about your roots exceeding your pot, try finding an old litter box (if you have cats), or another medium depth container and fill it with the soil you're using. Slightly water and place your existing pot on top of it. This way if the plant needs the additional space it will grow into the bottom try and it saves you having to transplant this far into flower, which would just be plain destructive to be honest.

Also, if you'd like to get a little organic life pumped into your girl, I would recommend 1/8 - 1/4 tablespoon of molasses per gallon of water. The plant will like the slight sugar additive, I saw results within 3 days in my last cabinet grow. Give it a shot, let me know how it works for you

Happy Growing :blsmoke:

i know you don't want to spend much money but i would reccomend getting some more light on that bad boy, looks really sativa dominant to me, so you could have another 10 weeks of flower to go till its done!! wouldn't worry bout the lower leaves yellowing it happens during flowering, just like the trees outside are getting yellow cos its autumn!! looks like a nice plant tho, good work

i didnt think it would take that long so the roots will be a problem i guess!?
