GreenPower000's (1st ever Grow) 12/12 CFL From Seed journal

Flushed on Sunday..... the water that came out was very brown and stunk to high hell.... I flushed till it ran clear, I also went back and looked at my MG grow bag (Garden soil) and realized I have been adding bloom nutes to my already nute enriched soil..... it says right on the bag ... Feeds for up to 3 months !!! how could I have missed THAT.... I figured a flush wouldn't hurt ... since my leaves were getting a few yellow spots and some of them were drying up and getting crumbly... not to many.. I didn't want a nute burn. Next time I'm going to the local nursery and getting some home made soil.

Also.... I have read on multiple threads that once the plants go into flowering they still grow up ( i knew this) so I LSTed. Now, my 1 good Fem is about to grow into the light, its about an inch or two from touching the CFL bulb. Should I try to tie her down again? Or will she grow to the light and stop (I've seen this happen in a few threads, didn't know if it was common)

u can go ahead and tie her down some more be careful jus a little bit at a time until you get her where you want her

yea, I went home at lunch... and the main stem is rock solid..... its gonna be hard to tie her down. I really don't want to break her, she is the best one outta the initial bunch.

dont worry here do this take it between your index and thumb and gently push until you feel a pop then slowley bend her siwdays like a l trues my she will be ok and it will slove your problem its called supercropping ive done it abunch during flower with my last plant

kewl.... just don't break the outer "skin" on the stalk right.... I don't want her flopping over ... just sagging a little .. right?

yea ur right dont break the outter bark

nice man 12/12 from seed is fun if u don't have the space and i done what u did used nutes with mg that feeds up to 6 months they did ok for awhile then they turned yellow but i've started another 12/12 from seed until i get the doe to upgrade to hps check it out if u want anyways im subed for sure

They should show if you click on the text..... but im about to try and fix that.

Here is an update.... I tied both of my girls down tonight.

This one is my good female ( Dan ... lol ... *refer to earlier posts*)

I just bent her back and LST ' ed her again.... I didn't break the main stem or pinch it, she just bent real well, i did see a little pin hole sized split and a pin sized drop of water came out.... but that was it , and it really doesn't look split or damaged.



This is the only one left out of the " Multipot" all others (male and female) got cut. This was the best looking one. Surprisingly she has done real well to be so abused.




I really need white plastic and those 100 Watt CFL's from home depot for like 17 bucks a piece.



Ahh ... I finaly found a good use for all of those damn twist ties you get at christmas time ... ya know thoe ones the wrap around EVERY FREEKING THING .... lol... I collected them all they are really useful for bending.

Yea, I was afraid to super crop this far into flower..... I know its been done and it works.... I'm just to much of a noob righ tnow to be pinching or twisting.... Just decided to tie her on down.

good thinkin =) check out my grow doing 12/12 from seed also just not as far into it as you im prolly gonna try lst supercrop and fim for shits n gigs jus fo fun and also leave 1 untouched see what comes out the best im gonna guess lst but idk we will see =D

ya supercrop i was skeptical at first but it works

whens the best time? considering its 12/12 from seed how many nodes?

You can LST any time... just bend and tie. I went home for lunch today..... Now, I'm not sure if my lst last night induced this or not but.. i noticed a few pistols on both plants are starting to turn brown / curl a little... I know it's probably around that time for this to start happening.. I just hope i don't see a rapid decline in plant health. The tops have already turned backup and are starting to grow again already. I'm headed down the back stretch !!! Woo Hoooo..

yea some will turn brown but most will stay white and i was talking about supercroping =) i've lsted before on 12/12 from seed heres some pics was like my 2nd ever grow lol so i burnt with nutes but the bud was still dank

Ahh, I see now... I need to slowdown when i read..

Yea, I'm a little leery about Super Cropping ... but a lot of people on here do it and it works great, PitBudz has some Sick ass grows, and he does it.

im a bit confused y wuld u want to super crop this plant? the point of doing it is if you dont have a even canopy or the plant is getting to tall these plants look great
