Here's an update on my Scotts og ladies that I've got in my organic super soil mix. I was not ready for this kind of growth1418660610122-1106836683.jpgIMG_20141215_101918.jpg
The one thing I can't figure out though is why I'm seeing a bunch of four blade leaves.. IMAG0509.jpgAnyone seen this before? The only thing I can think of is that maybe my mix has too much fulvic acid?

You need more light....
This what it means.
As a general rule, each k of lumens is a blade.
Yiu can go from the single leafed newborn straight to 5 or more then drop it to 3 sets of leaves if yiu like. Blast em and I've gotten 14 off straight Sativa's. Also by the shape and thickness of the leaves I say this. I know an even number of leaves seems unnatural, it isnt

If you do blast em, those deficiencies will become pretty severe...yes you have some

Can you elaborate a bit? In my experience light doesn't dictate blade numbers. When I first started I had plants with 7+ leaves and I was using less than 150 watts of cfls in a 4x2x5.5 foot space.
Blast them? As in with light?
And what deficiencies do you see?!?

Blast them- intensify lighting
CFLs are great...
They're stretching a lot, I don't let nodes get further than a half to 1in. Your at a couple inches.
And yes I still see them. Lower lights or otherwise increase lumens. They'll become exacerbated by the light then hopefully you see them too..

Would you mind saying what deficiencies? Because you're the only person who seems to see them. Who cares if they're stretching? They only stretch during dark periods so I don't see how that has anything to do with how many lumens they're getting. And my light stays within 6inch, any closer and they'd fry.

I went back thru and of course all my pics from before RIU switched formats or whatever are gone,which is why a lot of other members have left to other forums.I had erased all my pics thinking they would be here forever...it really sucks too because there were pics of my first grows 12/12fs.

i have never heard this each k of lumens is a blade i though gentics were the reasons for different number of blades

I had never heard the k per blade either....I think he talks out his ass sometimes;)....BUT the number of blades per leaf does increase with better lighting.I know because I can have 9,11....I've even gotten some 13 bladed leaves,but the same plants further away will only produce 5,7 and 9 bladed leaves.I'm sure genetics plays a big part in it too.peace

My current grow, under 600watt hps in 2x3x5 tent includes 2 fem pineapple chunk, 1 reg skunkage, 1 reg mango tango, 1 fem shoreline, 1 fem starbud, 1 fem Burmese kush 1 fem blueberry headband and 1 fem 707 truth band,also I had a fem critical sensi star that ended up being twins, so 2 of those as well as 2 unknown bag seed and one blue dream. I will be growing in 2 gallon grow bads with ffof soil and ff grow big as needed and will be picking up the ff trio as well.

What do you guys think my potential yield could be?

Also I'll be taking clones from the best ones and starting a sog from clone afterwards.

I would expect no less than 1 z per,that said different strains and environmental conditions give different results but an oz,give or take,per 2g grow bag under 12/12,would be nice.
There's a lot of other factors to consider also,which is sorta why..."What is my yield gonna be?..is a frowned upon question...and some pics would be nice!:)

About a pound.
