My 1st Medical Grow - Thanks To NukeHeads

[JayandFun]

Keep up the good work dude, your at the final stretch, take it nice and steady! I wish I could help you out more but I am out of meds, and pretty far away. Glad you had those things taken care of, stay healthy my friend! And wow look at that VTF! She’s gonna be yuuuuuge!!!! One well-endowed lady I’ll tell ya!

Thanks pal! I appreciate your kind words! I'm glad I took care if it as well. I'm hoping not to be bothered anymore by dos so I can just focus on my babeis! That VTW of Van's is growing amazing! I love seeing it tower over the nuke. I'm very proud of myself that I made it this far. I'm just going to keep doing what I learned from everyone here and hope for a great outcome. One the 1st I plan on buying some glass jars at the thrift shop or a store. I'm just not sure on how many I will need yet until my babies start budding. This grow is my only excitement around this house lol

Well that light from mars should give you a nice harvest. They were interested in sponsoring my new grow with a panel but I didn't want the panel they initially offered and I think they got mad at me lol but no biggy I have a couple other companies that want in. I need to increase my yields, I ran out of meds almost two weeks ago and no more ready until next harvest late February. Glad you're having fun, brother!

How u jay girls look great mate stackin up nicely now brotha . Can i ask wat distance r they from the light . Reason i ask is that few top leafs look abit like a canew shape. I might be wrong from the way i looked . Other than that mate uve got this happy growin.

Looks very healthy you are doing a good job now. I honestly didn't have this have of expectations for your first grow if we are being entirely honest. So good job should turn out great. Enjoy them now and take lots of pics maybe videos if you like that sorta thing because this is when the plant itself overall looks its best in my opinion over time the plant just won't look as good but those buds will look better and better and you should get at least a few real nice sized nugs if all goes well... be prepared for the smell though man. Even if you aren't worried about cops you do have to worry about thieves and I'm going to go out on a limb and say in another month those plants will easily be detectable outside your home. But I could be wrong that's just my opinion based on my experiences without a filter in late flower. Hopefully the Ona (if that's its name) you are going to try works. You are only a little ahead of me in flower so we will probably end up harvesting right around the same time.

I would guess it's possibly some minor heat stress before I'd guess light stress (just personally)... I see the plant you are referring to and if you look even the middle of the plant the blades are serrated upwards like that. I wouldn't worry a bit since all the other plants are looking great and that one plant doesn't seem to be very stressed or slowing down im sure it will grow out of it. Hell I keep all my lights just a few inches away in flower personally with no ill effects :lovemyplants:

Thats why we r all here in our 420 community to help each other mate well spotted my friend . Ye ive mine about 2 feet ive the ps500 led very powerful . My master kush doesnt like it to close so i had to high to the max and get boxes for the other 2 to get closer haha happy growin

 

[HappyHouse]

My plants sometimes do that on and off. It may be part of the "dance" they do.

 

[quinny]

Ye same as me kush by the end of lights out all fan leafs sugar leafs all droop like they re firsty but its just the way she goes haha

 

[EastCoastGhost]

The highest is 15 inches from the light. I just moved it up to 20 inches just to play it safe. Thanks for letting me know.
The leafs change thru out the day and they get very low when i do not water for 24hours and then high when I water them. They dance non stop and I have a fan on them blasting on medium 24/7. They never get a break from the wind.

What type of light is it? 20" away is rather far away for flower if it's not a super strong light. the closer the better and I personally didn't see really much of any signs of stress from the light being to close... No bleaching no leaves turning crisp or anything like that. Nor any significant changes compared to the bottom leaves. At the most I keep my lights 12" away in flower and gradually lower them to as low as I can without shadowing the sides so long as they don't stress about it. Normally I'll keep the lights around 16" away in veg though recently I've been going 12-14" in veg just because that's what I find I like best. I'm by no means demanding you to do anything or anything like that I'm just saying 20" away seems a bit high to me in flower and may harm bud production causing them to be stretchier and fluffier over tight and dense. As well as now the lower portions are like 36" away from the light now.

I run my fans 24/7 on my girls too especially in flower that's when I really crank up the airflow because they can handle it much better versus vegging plants and it helps keep them nice and sturdy and makes it difficult for bugs to make the plants into a home. Do you have a fan set up to blow air directly over the canopy? If not I'd recommend doing that before I'd recommend raising the lights as it can drastically help cool canopy temps as it's warmer at the top compared to the bottom where most keep their temp gauges.

I didn't have high hopes that I could get this far either. So you are not the only one. I took a hit when my Orange cream turned out to be a male but these two babies are putting up a good fight and staying alive and healthy. I'm following their feeding schedules and I'm measuring everything correctly and my ph and humidity is perfect.

Im not concerned about the smell since I'm home 24/7 but I'm going to try the oNA since I'm doing this with out a filter and I don't want to kill anyone that does visit me with the smell.
My dog is also a great alarm system and thankfully I live in a community where there are no sidewalks and no one would come close to my home - plus I live in a trailer so not many thrives would even try to rob this shothole.
Many nights I sleep in pain wishin for a home invasion do to my pain. I won't take myself out with my gun.. (Thoughts have crossed my mind and I was very close)
But I understand where you are coming from and since I want to live these days... I now lock my doors an Windows and don't want to give anyone ideas on what might be inside this shothole. So I'm buying the oNA stuff just to be safe with the smell.
