ok chaps slight issues with the grow, due to unforseen events i had to litterally chuck some water in the pots due to time issues, and i mean all i done was litterally take a 1.5 litre bottle of pre mixed water and nute and pored it into 4 plant pots equally.

now that was nowhere enuff water they need, im back 4 days later, watered them jus last night and they were droopy as feck, looked really dry, now theyv perked up again.

so now i think there fine what do i do? i fukin put more cfls on, another 125w envirolite, and leave it on for 5-6 hours into the 12 hour dark period. shit

so my question is lights going on in like 4 hours, means they really only got 6 hours dark, this is the one and only time this has happened.

my plants are 4 ladys, 3.5 weeks into flower

have i f uked them royally? will they be ok?

p.s they have good bud over them
 
No you didn't fuck them up. Even in the wild they will have days where it is dark during the day because of a storm, or the full moon can be almost as bright as daylight. Get them back on their schedule asap so they won't stress to much. Good luck and keep us posted.......
 
They look good. Have you started to see tric's ? Mine started to get them around 2.5-3 weeks. They are dripping with resin now, they are almost 35 days into flower. My link is in my sig if you ever wanted to see how fucked up plants can get and still pull through.....
 
I cut 2 lower branches off with some small buds to sample last wed. I don't know how potent it will be as they still have 3-4 weeks left but I wanted to try it.....
 
sorry buddy its me i jus wanted to know how many weeks into flower you were since u said u chopped of a small branch, i wanna do that to just not sure when so thought i would ask

sorry for the confusion man
 
No prob my friend. I started 12/12 on march 10th. I took 2 small branches from the bottem of the plant that doesn't get as much light as the rest of the plant. About 6" long and have little buds about the size of your thumb nail... They have been drying for 4 days and are sticky as hell.
 
lol at the movies haha

yeh i know they are stretched a bit, jus threw in another 125w yesterday so now 375w in total over 4 plants, i think thats gonna be ok, always have another 250w blue i could chuck in, u think i should?

so about a month into flower? cool let me know how the test bud smoked, im similar i have a few lower branches wit tiny buds which dont really get a lot of light, not like the main kolas anyway, temped to do the same, im also almost a month through flower
 
so that puts you at about 30k lumens for your plants, but from your pics it doesn't appear you have any reflectors and that each light is not shining on all plants (i.e. from the top, rather than the side. I would suggest either a) mounting them to evenly distribute light or b) just add more light to compensate.
 
The more lights the better! So yea, throw that bitch in there. You are using light with a blue spectrum for flowering? I would throw some lights in there with a bit of red color spectrum. I think those are the 2700k cfl's?
 
i have a reflector for the big 250w one, which reflects from the top, the 125w is hanging inbetween the middle of the plants, well not exactly the middle but as close as i can get it to all 4 without burning any leaves if u get me

bare in mind what you see in those pics was just done with a 250w hanging around 4 inches above plants, this was because i was on holiday, now im back so will rotate them in such a way daily that they all get equal bud, basically my aim is now to fatten those buds up, im estimating another 4 weeks left i think

no im using 375watts on red spectrum, i have a 250w blue which is sitting in my garage which was used for veg, should i add that also so theres 375watts of red and 250w of blue?
 
Like I said, the more light the better. I don't think throwing that light in there with blue spectrum will hurt anything. Hell, you could probably grow all the way to the end with just blue spectrum. The plants just favor the red for flowering.
