What strain is it? Bag Seed I've accumulated the last year or so.
I think all 3 are different too soon to tell if 2 are same or not.
Is it in Veg or Flower stage? - Veg stage - For how long? 5-6 weeks

Indoor - Closet - Soil - Fox Farms Happy Frog - Solo cups to 3 Gallon now
Size of light? 2 Sylvania (2700K) 23watt CFL's
On hand - 2 Sylvania (6700K) 13watt CFL's for flowering
2 - 8 1/2 inch clamp lights and a 24 inch fluorescent
Small 6inch fan on HI & Temp is averaging 68 to 73

Watering every 4 or 5 days - lifting for lightness
Type and strength of ferts used? Osmocote Plus and SuperThrive (every other watering)
# of Plants: 3

Started from assorted bag seed germinated around Thanksgiving
All I had was the 24 inch fluorescent so was slow moving at first
Transplants into 3 gallons took place on 1-09-13
2 23Watt CFL's and 2 - 8 1/2 inch Clamp Lights added next day

Pics below - Welcome any input :thanks:
 
Early goings on

To date, every other watering (2 times) SuperThrive has been added with last being Monday. The first was barely a drop which I added to my spray bottle as it was the second day AFTER transplanting just wanted them to get a head start in the new pots. Only spraying the soil for each plant until it got close to emptying then just divided the remaining water in all 3.
 
Here's the updated pics from just now...adjusted the lighting let's see if they're gonna be close enough for all 3 plants to get light. I lowered the boxes as was getting a bit worried I might bump everything and don't want any problems. Lights were lowered as well. I can view my closet grow sitting down with door open :popcorn:

looking nice and healthy so far:)
 
iits best to put the OC under the root mass before you transplant but you can top dress the soil if needed
 
thank fish
was my original intentions...but the way I had to purchase everything needed didn't pan out the way I'd had hoped. So if I add my OC+ on top then spread a little soil on top of that I'll be ok? Since I bought the pellets I planned on putting them in a ziplock and break em up.

and how do I add links or quotes to the bottom on my posts :scratchinghead:
 
that should be fine!
to add that stuff go to the top of the page and see the word settings next to your name clik that and it will take you to a menu that says add or change signature then go from there:)

I agree with FC. Just mix it in with the top inch or two of soil.

Just to be clear, I was talking about pinching the top of your plants to get them to bush out instead of continuing to get taller. Your plants have plenty of nodes to support a trim of the top. I don't think you should wait. I'm basing my point here on the fact your growing in a closet and are probably going to be limited in height. These plants can get pretty tall if you just let then shoot straight up.
 
Topped the tallest of the 3 plants and will do the other 2 before they get next watering. For some reason or another they are yet dry enough for me to give anymore yet, maybe in a day or 2. With my visor magnifying glasses on the topped plant looks to be showing a slight glimpse of a white hair or 2 on second from top nodes.
remember I have glaucoma so maybe I'm seeing things will update when for sure :scratchinghead: :confused:

What makes you think it's a male?
 
i see some little balls tried to get pics but too small yet. i have an opti visor got from my stepdad he's a tool and die maker. not sure how close it gets but i can see 3 little balls on the second node. i'll keep good close light on it to see better results soon. next watering also includes SuperThrive so by next weekend hopefully know by then.
