well as you have seen in my pics, the plants are pretty stocky, short and bushy, not much height. the branching system is looking beautiful tho. i welcome the tripled size during flowering... pics coming tonight

 

[berrydizzle]

Cant wait to see the pics...when do you plan on flowering?

 

[Stoobie]

mid to end of dec.

 

[berrydizzle]

Man, how much grow room do you have?? Thats still 2 month of veg, that plant will be too big in my opinion...You have to remember you need a pot that supports a plant for that long, and were talking more than a 5 gallon pot. How tall is it now??

 

[Stoobie]

height is not an issue, but yea i see what ur saying... hmm. right now as of day 51, they are all avg. about 12 inches tall. told ya, short and busshy -btw- pics are waiting on approval

 

[berrydizzle]

Also, how big are the pots that they are in now. If you can look at the holes in the bottom and see roots, you should transplant. Actually I just looked at my Cervantes book and he says 5 gallon will last for 3-8 months, and if you flowered end of december than that would be like a 5 and a half month grow time(if you flowered for 2 months). Are you planning to LST at all? How big will the flowering room be and how many plants again, honestly too lazy to go back and look. Whats the flowering light wattage again? Sorry for all the questions, im just tryin to get a feel for what you got goin, if ya know what I mean.

 

[Stoobie]

the grow room is 3x3 with like 9 foot ceiling. ummm, i dont think i see roots yet at the bottom. i may do LST on one or two of em just to see yeild difference. 5 plants. i have 750 watts of cfls and 300 watts of t5 high output floros- bloom bulbs. --- and thanks for the interest and input berrydizzle i greatly appreciate it

 

[berrydizzle]

Sounds good man, and glad to help out... seems like it will work out well with your current plan. It still amazes me at how bushy your plants are.

 

[Stoobie]

ok heres day 51

 

[Respect]

Dude that shit is out of control. I've never seen bushier looking plants!

 

[Stoobie]

please tell me truth guys, is that a good thing or a bad thing in the long run. ill prolly veg for another 3-4 weeks.

 

[Stoobie]

someone explaijn the short bushinest. short planted bitches

 

[Smokin Moose]

Sometimes when a plant is short of nutrients, paticularly phosphorous, it can grow quite stunted and bushy. This is because the plant is desperately trying to complete it's grow cycle with little nutrition, and is unable to grow any bigger.
As long as the nutrient deficiency is corrected, you should still get a yield, albeit diminished. The potency of the end product is independent from the size of the plant, so it will not be affected. Potency is genetic.

 

[Stoobie]

thats the wierd thing moose, since you told me it was a phosphorus deficiency, i have been foliar feeding and watering it nutes high in n and p. so i really dont know what the prob is. you are a pro as i ahve seen in your other journals but, seeing as how i have been giving it an insane amount of phosphurus, any more would be overkill/ dangerous. i personally think its the red spectrum lights i have in there.

 

[Smokin Moose]

The trouble with P deficiencies is that they can take quite a while to correct, once ferts are adjusted. Looking at your plants, I would say you have done a fantastic recovery job with your foliar feeding. Had you not taken advice, I am quite sure your plant would have gone to Heaven lol. So, my friend, your efforts have been rewarded by your diligence, and you will most likely get a decent harvest, as against no harvest.
I think you have done very well, so please don't see my comments as critical. The fact that you will now have a harvest is your reward for diligence! In fact, +10 reps for your efforts.

 

[Stoobie]
