Thank you. I've been pretty surprised how easy they have been in comparison to my other garden plants like my tomatoes and peppers that are alot more finicky. It still never ceases to amaze me though the whole growing from seed process on any plant. I never considered myself a green thumb but i guess kinda have a knack for it. I love at night when I see everyone reaching for the stars it's truly magical and it's weird watching them because I know they are alive but I think they like it when I come keep them company hahaLooks like you're on top of it. Nice and healthy plants!
I grew a row of tall sunflowers this year. It's quite something to stand next to a single flower twice as tall as you are.
Glad everything was ok!! Way to go on the bondage!! Still have a little bit of stretch left.
Way to keep them green!

Thanks I think maybe I'm seeing some flowers? I know where I fimmed I'm now seeing like 4-6 spots of new growth. When it comes to flowering I'm not sure what nutrients I should be using.
Go ahead and show some pics! I bet you definitely have preflowers now!!
You move from more N to more K.
I use Fox farm big bloom and age old bloom. Later in flower I'll add Big Bud and bud candy.
We all have had wars with bugs, so you're official now.

Nutrients are important I agree, but more important is using them strategically and what I mean is try to cut down on blind walking before you start
Your plants are potted, so nutrients will get depleted eventually, but rarely after first run. You just added a lot of worm castings if I remember right and this type of compost has almost everything your plants need except some minerals like calcium, magnesium, maybe iron and manganese, so raising ppm of these in soil is your priority. Everything else is there in abundance.

I used abou a 1/4 cup per plant and then when I repotted them I re potted them with pro mix organic soil. I haven't done anything extra since re potting.Nutrients are important I agree, but more important is using them strategically and what I mean is try to cut down on blind walking before you start

Start slowly building up to a full bloom feeding. You're soil has nutes in it so you can really ease into it!
I'd look into adding some microbes too. Great white works well
Bad news, I don't really see any pistils (that's crazy!) Maybe one...Pre Flowers?
But good news!!! I don't see any nuts!!!
Keep on keeping on!!!
Pre Flowers?
It has the alternate branching of pre-pre-flowering. As Blazin Waffle says, no pistils yet.
You will probably see sex show within 3-4 days.

Invest in good source of calcium/magnesium in a proper ratio, so you don't have to customise it yourself. It'll be pain in the ass to get anything fast release if you want to stay organic, but you need it for healthy plants and heavy flowers. Online you might find a lot of good stuff.

This product is chelated and non-organic from what I gather, but it's really not my call. I know that organic growers in US go for dolomite lime and Epsom salts, but I don't know how hard it's gonna be to get both.
If none of these products are available I can recommend getting some wood ash, which will provide enough calcium carbonate for flowering even in a small dose and a moderate amount of potassium if that's an issue.
