Growing in the UK

I am a Newbie member and a first time grower and this website is brilliant. I would like to give out my smpathy to all us UK growers - as our weather is garbage. I have attached my lastest picture, so far so good. They have been growing outside (purley organic) details are: Seed Nemeisis Feminised. Sativa/Indica. F1 Hybrid.

Nice sized plants - but they don´t seem to be flowering yet. Good luck with them anyway.

If I returned to the UK I would get a greenhouse, fitted with frosted glass.

wow, nice plants first time grower. the only thing i would suggest is to cut some branches off the bottom 3rd or so of the plant and bend some branches at the top to even out the canopy. good luck!

Hi Spanishfly
The weather has'nt been great lately, anyhow I have got a few white strings sprouting out so I think it is entering the flowering stage. I have only just started growing my own, I think that eventually I will get a greenhouse but I shall build up to that. Thank you for your comment.

Hi capncash
Yes I agree some kinda prunning is required. What do you think about taking off the top leader stem? What do you mean by bending some branches at the top to even out the canopy because that sounds quite interesting? Thank you for your comment x

looking good, looks like a perfect spot for em too nice and sunny

beautiful plants nice job mate.

elo mate they are looking good im from the uk aswell and ur rite this weather is pathetic lol look at my post if u get time mate

Hi Hip Hop
Thanks for that - its very encouraging x

Hi Liam
Your plants are looking good. Yer that might not be a bad idea about forcing them - just have to think about a dark place. Its been raining all week but the plant leaves look very lush and green, so enjoying the drink. Thanks for your comment, much appreciated. x

Thanks for that -very encouraging x

Hi sonnywall

Yes its been raining most of the week - I am going to lQQk at your post right now and thanks for the encouragement x

Hi Hip Hop Grower

Thanks for that - they have been looked after like babies x

Hi Sonnywall
Looked at your other posts and I think we are both roughly at the same point in growing - I am in the South of England as well. Have decided to force flower them 12/12 - will let you know how I get on x

plants looking nice bro . im also in the uk man. done the same thing as the other dude and forced mine into floewer about 5 weeks ago, because i was worryed about the weather here. it has been raining all week, so ive been takeing my girls in when it rains. dont want any mold on my buds. that would suck. fucking english weather. hopefully it will brighten up a bit on weekend. the cloudyness is deffinately slowing down growth a little bit. well it seems like it, or it could just be me lol.

good luck with grow man. you should try and put them into force flower just to be safe? find a dark cupboard to put them in. or a room with no windows. its better than getting a black bag or a bin and shoving that over the top!

easy man

I done what you said and took off bottom 3rd roughly of plant leaves.

Hi mlore
Going to start to force flower one of them tonite - you can't see it in my pics but there is a smaller 4th one and I am going to put it in 12/12 light, in a small portable greenhouse which is going to be blacked out by hanging over the frame a pourous black weed suppresent, which will allow ventilation, keep out all light, kept warm and undectable. Weather here crap too (just outside London). By the way I am going to make some maripills (capsules) - just for the sheer hell of it. God bless you and all that you smoke. By the way call me sis x

hey saw your asking about maybey bending a few top branches !! well got to tell you thats exactly what ive donre with all my bushy multi headed plans to even out and let light all the way through the plants!! ive actually got 1 plant that i pinched out at 1 and a half foot tall then i let the two heads grow a couple a weeks then i bent each one out to the side of the plant tyed to a bamboo cane ! ive also done this to the other main stem so each one is growing horazontal then few of the big low branches bent them out aswell so there all growing there branches strait u vertical so will have many many smaller colas !! well good sized !!! also done that with all my bushy plants and gota say doing this means you have the same level of growth from bottom to top!! just go easy bent bit at a time carfull not to kink your branches or stems!! you will maximise your yeild this way also what bloom nutes you using???

Hi Liam
Yes I am going to bend the top stem - have also taken off the lower canopy leaves (1/3 rd). I initially thought I lost a plant, but I cut it right down and it is growing like grease lightning, have also tied it to a bamboo cane, so really I have 3 and half plants. Will take your advice about bending. Thanks once again for your brilliant advice - my little flower bud x
