So I’ve took 4/5 big fans leafes off for now, get some light to the bottom. I’ve placed her under one of my omega lights whilst the room is vacant. It’s 600w HID light. But I’ve set the ballast to “superlumen”. Is this too much light and is the light distance right too? Just gunna let her flower under this one light for at least a couple weeks. Give her a boost from the CFLS. This won’t “shock” the plant will it? Cheers for the help everyone.

Stretch usually lasts about 3 weeks into flower.

She’s 3 weeks to the day in flower now, she’s under a single 600w HID, placed an oscillating fan in the room now too. I’ve been able to feed her 2 Litres a time as the run off in the trays evaporates a lot quicker now, plus I think the plant it just consuming more now. But since being under the 600w she has come along loads. Loads of new growth and buds popping up. Gunna wait another week or so then have a fairly comprehensive trim and try and get as much light to as much of the plant as possible. She smells sooo good too, got hints of lime to it. Wish I had a smellaphone so you could all share it. Safety

If you can wait till stretch is over to defol anything. Don't want any stall to happen during stretch.

How do I know when this occurs? Will the plant literally grow rapidly for a period? Cheers

 

[Derbybud]

At 3 weeks into flowering you should be there. Now is when you'll want to do a good defol.

Seems like ages ago I last posted, new jobs got me pretty busy.
She's been in flower now for a good few weeks, exact number slips my mind. Did have her under a 600w but I've had to return her to the grow box under the CFL lights. I haven't noticed a major difference in the size of the plant its self, I aimed to keep her small, although she's smaller than I had hoped.
The buds are looking close to being ready id say, there's a decent nuggets, smells really nice though.
She's due for harvest on the 1st of October, according to the flowering time on the seed packet. What do you think? Safety.

 

[Pennywise]

I'd say she's got until Oct 1, she's still got a ways to go.

 

[Norris flake]

Just want to fatten up the buds now. Cheers peeps

She'll put on a lot of bulk during the last 2 weeks, gotta have faith!
