I planted a plant in the yard to see if would take I was quite shocked to see when it started to come round and grow.

As you can see I put a bottle round the edge to stop the bugs and a mesh on top to get a few shoots (scrog).

After about 3 weeks I decided to super crop by snapping 2 stems on the edge of the coke bottle as this coauses the stem to mend itself and take more food.

I noticed little bugs had started taking a liking to my leaves but if I was a bug I think I would just chill with the plants all day. I took a picture a week later it was night so I will apologize for the quality.

After 2 week it started getting too tall and wide and as I have nosy greedy neighbors I had to do the right thing and bring her in. Straight after I scooped her out she was 23" tall and about 24" wide. As I brought her in she was drooping like f**k.

At this point my main focus was just to get her perked back up as soon as I fed her Rhizotonoic, Cannazhyme and plant revive and sprayed loads of bug spray. I also give her a big check on the top and underneath of the leaves.
I decided to put her in the middle of a room with a fan on her and a clip on cfl just above her. After about half a day she came back round and was swaying in the breeze.

After a few days I started to lollipop it as she was too bushy for the tent I was still to introduce the 400 watt HPS to her. Once I had put her in the tent I think it was too warm and bright for her at the start. But after a few days she came round.

The first day in the tent was a bit too much for her but I kept the temps at a nice rate for her. I also decided to top her few times as well to keep her short as she stands at 24" tall. and the tent is not that tall.

These are the most recent pictures that I have taken after she has been topped and fed her the temp is 29 and the humidity is 40%

Just another update I think the ballast is fu**ed because it keeps on turning off so I have to use a clip on CFL until its ready to turn back on.
I flushed her yesterday to keep her on track.
 
Looking good grower

You'll shit.

i hate ballast failures!
3 in 6 mo with the 400 induction floro.

Thank you its doing my head in but it gets a little light from the CFL just gave her first flower feed today looking frosty as hell.
 
I got 2 that showed first signs of flower on 9-1 and 2 that showed a few days ago.DSCF3029.jpg heres a random shot of one side cola. Its the most recent shot I got right now.
 
Thanks smiffy. I ended up vegging for a long ass time because I allmost killed the poor bastards. About 2 months 2 1/2 maybe. I started in ffof and fed ff grow big when they were just 3 nodes. Gandalfdagreen got me on the right path and they recovered nicely. They should be ready mid oct. I'm not sure if the red stem is a genetic thing. All mine have copper colored spots on the leaves here and there too. I just got used to it. They seem healthy enough and I hear they are nutrient whores so that maybe the reason.
 
She is roughly 5 weeks in no big problems so far apart from a few caterpillars last week which I found and removed I have backed of the N just concentrating on the P and K now.
