ImissATARI's first grow ALL CFL

i think I am seeing the beginning signs of mag or zinc def. The areas between the leaves are starting to spot a lighter color with a few developing dark spots. - It seems this is happening on both plants, though the indica a lil more then the other.

...I am going to check the problems page...

I think that I am along for the ride now too. Your plants are looking very good from my point of view.

Day 54 update (has it been that long already?)

So far so good..... about 2 weeks ago my cousin brought over some perilite and a lil miracle grow. I only put about an inch or two to up the dirt a little bit on both plants. I have been watering real light (perhaps too light) and noticed the growth wasn't really impressin me. So two nights ago, I added about half a pound of my worm castings to the top of the soil (in hopes of it helping with any def i may currently have) and gave it a good half gallon of water, making sure to cover the castings so the microbes will get in the soil.

Today WOAH!. I don't know if it was the extra water, the real good watering since i gave it the miracle grow, or the 2 extra bulbs i added but "lil girl" hit a growth spurt! I'm going the same to "big girl" tonight if i get a chance.....

Big girl has about 7 or 8 side growths that I was able to move the leaves around enough to give them full light. There are about 3 that are currently under the large canopy of leaves that is fightin to get up to that point.

Lil girl has about 3 side growths but I am to believe she will be shooting out a lot more here this next week (a lot of side growth spurted out this past week).

Thinking of setting a date to start flowering in the 2 week range.....

I will get pics when i can....

It not the mg its the casting, those micro bacteria makes the plants go nuts. Do a comparison one with out worm casting and see the difference for yourself. Good stuff, I wanna see some pics ASAP.

I don't know if you remember me or not but I have three right now and the biggest is male and the second biggest is yay a female. The third not sure what sex yet but I hope it is a female because on the very bottom the stem did like a V fork so there is like two plants in one. But this one is a different strain then the other two.The weird thing is is that the light has been on 24/7 except for a few hours here and there when I had to turn off the lights for a reason but that is about it. But in a few days im gonna start to flower. I started mine about the same time as you did and mine are like so much bigger then yours but probably because they are different strains. Maybe Ill post some pics maybe not.

sounds good man, welcome back!

I don't know what happened. I cleared my cache and cookies and what nots so I had to login to sign in to RIU right? I clicked "forgot password" and did all that junk to get my password - no email. I waited 24 hours, did it again - no email. Overall i did that about 3 times because I have good news.

So what did I have to do? Start a new account - what kinda bs is that.

Ne ways guys- For those who havnt figured it out yet, this is ImissATARI. I guess for now I'm going as "ImissedATARI. O well .

So I'm on day four of 12/12 - ill have to calculate the total days vegged until i flowered. Well after only 2 days "Lil" girl, who is now "Big GURL" started showin A hair. I dissmissed it as my mind playing tricks on me. Yesterday, I check it, and I have 2 spots with confirmed double hairs coming out of her lil p hole. Today, there were about 3-4 different spots with some sort of hair coming out of it - so a confirmed female. I was happy as hell and couldn't stop staring at it!

The other plant has yet to show sign. The neat thing is, I don't give a rats ass, cause at the very least i have ONE female so if i get TWO females, thats just icin on the cake.

Pics 1 and 2 : Female (Lil Gurl)
Pics 2 and 3 : Suspected male (Big Gurl)

Damn that sucks about ur account! But glad ur back! I was wonderin what happened to you.

Plants are lookin good! Ur lady showed sex pretty damn fast! That's a good thing!
Keep us updated!

Glad to hear it's a girl. Hopefully the other is one as well.

Good looking plants you got.

That does suck about your account. But your plants look like they are doing really good.

Grats on the girl Atari, that thing is going to get huge in flower.

thanks guys!

Wanna put an estimate on yield this early?

My initial estimate (hope?) 3/4?

There is the main cola and maybe 3 good side growths and maybe 2 small side grows fighting to get up to the light.

1/2 oz is my guess

Well i guess I have my account back?

weird - I didn't do anything, just checked into the site and I was logged in...

maybe the mods or the admin saw the post and diced to give you some help.

haha, now i'm signed in here. weird. I'm just gunna roll with it ~ haha

lol that will have to work.

Any growth spurts yet? Yours is about the time where mine hit a huge one. Over an inch a day for a little over a week.

well,mr pacific, not exactly.

How about this for bonehead move of the year? This is my nomination:

a few days after flowering i decided to mess with my lights to fit another surge protector up there, thus being able to spread the lights out and add more.

in doing so, i brought it up stairs and fiddled with it, accidently turnin off the timer. so yes, 5 days of 24 hours of light, what are we, in ALASKA? Crap, I'm an idiot. In hindsight i should of put it back to 18 for a day or two and give it 12/12 again. But I didn't - I stamped it with 24 hours of night then put them back on 12/12. Oh well, haste makes waste. I'm hoping it doesnt' stress them (should that be a concern?) So now its on day 2 of flower.

So its going to be even bigger now, and I only have about 6 inches to bring the lights up before it can't go up any higher. So I am pretty sure I will have to dig down into the ground to fit my beauty's
