What a difference 4 days make cfl growth spurt.

growdad · Nov 23, 2008

I took these pictures 4 days ago

These are from today. I think I will start to flower in 4 more weeks.
There in 10" pots.

Does that sound right?

Looks nice and healthy. Keep in mind that the plant is going to double, and possibly triple in size during flowering. If height is a concern for you, make sure you don't let them get more than 1.5ft in height before beginning the 12/12 cycle.

Thanks Rolla, Right now its 6" Tall. very short and bushy. 6 nodes.

Now would be an excellent time to top the plants. Just get a sharp knife or razor and cut the main growth shoot off about 2cm above the last internode. That will stunt vertical growth while forcing the plant to grow out laterally. You'll also end up with two main colas instead of one. This technique will help you keep the height under control while developing into a tremendously bushy plant. Should increase your yield a bit as well.

What set up are you using? How many cfl's? And how many watt's each?

growdad · Nov 23, 2008

I am using 5 26w 6500k cfl's and 3 42w 2700k's in a cabinet 22" x 16" inside painted white to distribute the light. 1 intake 4" fan and I 4" venting fan with seperate fan inside the cabinet. I'm growing 5 medical skunk plants from seed. Using miracle grow moisture control and perlite mix. The plants are almost 4 weeks since sprouting.

Is a mix of 2700k's and 6500K's better for vegging/flowering? Does it make a significant difference?
