These things grow like weeds 2nd CFL, Soil Grow

[Chameleon1]

When you say 18 day clone you mean after they have rooted correct?

 

[Tunes420]

Chameleon1 for stopping by and looking
No 18 days and 27 days since i started them on 12 hours light and 12 hours dark. they took couple weeks to root from clone and stayed in veg room for couple weeks before going into flower room
All of the last bud pictures are from the seeds/plants.....then i have two clones in flower room that are about 10 days behind seeds...so not budding as nice yet

 

[Chameleon1]

[Siscokid]

Great looking buds man, some of them look like comets. No, I'm not stoned. I wish.

 

[Tunes420]

Hey siscokid ...which ones.....the ones that go sideways? .....i can see comets when i smoke it and flying elephants. Sorry to hear about the no smoke situation brother grower.... hopefully soon you will have some bud to smoke. Your grows are getting better and better...you can tell you been reading up and learning...it shows I see some sweet bud in your journal now....nice tric shots wow

i cant seem to locate where you mention how much lighting you are running. I'm curious as I'm doing a CFL grow right now myself and have 4 48" tubes and 2 45W CFL's outputting around 18k lumens. If i could get some plants that look as good as yours i would be very happy. It looks like the big secret is the LSTing.

 

[Tunes420]

for stopping by TheCriMsonK20 I use 3-68 watt bulbs 2700 k 4200 lums ...... I have 5-40 watt bulbs 4-2700 1-6500 all 2600 lums before i got veg room bag up and needing lights (new passive hydro grow)i had 2 more 40 watt 6500 2600 lums just to add some blue (6500)to lights along with their needed reds (2700) In flower room.Also have a 32 watt fluro 4' light 3400k...not sure lums. That i use for streach when plants first come to flower room. Most bulbs have round metal reflectors which really makes a hudge differant in light plant gets and LST is the key here for sure...lower you can keep plant the more bud sites get the light, some times as much light as your main colas which make more main colas.Good example would be Fiona from this grow

That was set of lights i used on Fiona ....two bulbs in the middle are the 6500k (blue) Plus two 68 watts 2700k to reach her ends. Hope this helps

I com pletely agree with the lst comment. I lst my biggest plant, and it just exploded with new growth. LST is key. Good job bro you are the lst king.

 

[Steve McStoferson]

yeah that definitely helps dude. I think ill be fine on my lighting for now until i go into flowering, then i'll have to pick up some more CFL's to throw around the plants. How long did you veg them for until you started LST? Mine have only been planted for a week, but I'm trying to get everything in order.

 

[Tunes420]

I let them grow about 5 nods and you can raise light slightly few days before to let them get a inch or so between nods if you plan on tying the ladies down Just gives you more room. First thing i do is tie off stem by soil to side of pot...Then i bend the plant the oppisite way with my hook tie

and push it into soil gently about 1/4 of the total amount you want it to stay. couple days later push it down a little more...use judgement some plants bend easier than others...then few days later push it more...if this is where it will stay ...let sides grow up a few inchs and tie them down til you get this

....then as you transplant you remove wires and readd once in new pot where you want plants to grow....they will hold once they have been in that position so you can remove wire or what ever you use and reattach it further out to edge of pot.
stully appreciate that....hope others can benifit from it...cause is working here for my temp lights temp set up

Wow, I can't wait to see how much more the outdoor one yields compared to the indoor ones. Looks really good!

 

[Tunes420]

InhaledFreq ....I am thinking 4 times what i get indoor for outdoor plant easy .So I too am wondering the difference in yield

 

[Siscokid]

Hey Tunes, I just had to say that the one time I didn't use the wire for LST, I snapped my main Cola I hope that it stays alive for the finish.
