hey Farmer....
i want you to give us more info.... what type of soil are in the pots? what nugs did the bagseed come from? if you dont got pictures give us a little detail on how the leaves are turning out and if bushy at all.... indica characteristics..... sativa..... etc......

if youre on a budget and using sun reflectors, i would just get some mg bloom nutes.... im curious.... you havent nuted once throughout all 18inches?

i woulda picked up some cheap Mylar (emergency blanket) from Walmart or like Big-5...... you can cut and tape them suckers anywhere and they reflect damn near 90% of the light........

look at new growth. if the plant still shows new growth daily then she didnt take the fall too bad i dont think...... switch the light cycle slowly til youre turning on lights during the night and off during the day......

haha i doubt you can clone those now.... i mean im pretty sure air went in..... they were also broken, not snipped off with a blade or sumn........ also cloning during flowering can delay veg... takes a little while for the plant to convert back to veg mode...

get it charged bruh....

If you take a sharp razor and recut the broken branches at a 45 degree angle, then dip in rooting gel, you just may be able to salvage a couple clones. If they survive, stick them back to 18/6 and they will revert back to veg for ya.

Good luck!

Hi ukfarmer

Did you start another grow?

Is this grow still alive?

If so, please update us with some pictures and info.

How about posting a 420 Strain Review?
