Girl Scout Cookies Clone - Indica - In Organic Soil With Perlite

[curiousgrow]

this clone is a month and a week old, she gets nitrogen nutrients every two weeks, just foliar feeded her with the nitrogen nutrients today for the first time. she only gets bout 6-7 hours of sunlight a day because of where I'm keeping it, its grown pretty well it seems. any advice on what to do.

It looks healthy to me, especially for only getting 7 hours of direct light a day! It depends on where you live and how big you want to grow the plant before flowering, but if you are going to stay in that pot, I would recommend flowering soon. Otherwise you should probably transplant to a larger pot and let her keep doing her thing!

interesting, so why would u recommend flowering it if its gonna stay in that same pot? also so how do i get her to start flowering? do you think flowering her indoors would be good?

Basically "The bigger the roots, the bigger the plant." In other words, the more root space you have, the larger the plant can grow to be. Just by eyeballing it, I'd say you should decide how much longer you choose to veg, or figure it out based on the sun if it will be finished outside.

your right, I'm sure the plants roots are at the boundary of the pot, wat would u recommend me do to start flowering? i bought a 50 watt high sodium light, is that enough? do colored lights really help the weed grow?

Do some reading in the lighting section of this sticky:
How to Grow Cannabis - Everything You Need to Know!

Those should cover everything, but in short, a 50W HPS is not going to be enough to do much with this plant. If you took it in now, you would probably want to do some LST (low stress training) to keep it shorter, as it will double/triple in height when you start flowering it.

If you have the time and patience, and are in a good geographical location to flower it outside and it not be an issue, I would probably just do that. It won't cost you anything.
