Hey all,
This is my first rearing and for one of the girls my choice was to L.S.T. it. I have come quite a ways with this girl. She has been in trouble a few times. These days she is looking great and I am thinkin that I should probably flip her here 12/12 in the next week or so...

She's been on 24/7 to 18/6 for 2.5 weeks and now is on 16/8 for the past few days. When should I introduce bloom for flowering so she adjust well ?

I also have a few photos of her sister that i've had in the backyard for the past month or two. Any ideas for me to thicken her? I only getting about 3-4 hours good sun each day as my backyardis limited this late in the year.. Pink flowers just appeared about a week n a half back.. How swoll if at all can I expect this baby to get?

BTW- sorry bout the camera and its puny muscles.

I really appreciate the love in this forum. Lots of great heady info..

Your inside one looks great! I would put her under 12/12 anytime now. I don't know much about outside growing but I'm sure someone here will chime in to help you better than I can. Good luck!

I use foxfarm tiger bloom for mine and seems to work well... it will give you dosage directions for soil on the back of the bottle. I would suggest a good flushing before switching nutes though just so you don't have a build up in the soil, it could be bad for the plants in the long run.

I use foxfarm bloom too but DO NOT go by what the bottle says for dosage amounts! It's waaaay strong! I use 1/2 of what it says with no probs but with your young ones, start with 1/4. I did the "heavy" feeding and it said to use 1/2cup per gallon on the label and I was told to immediately flush them asap! I almost lost them all if someone hadn't pointed that out. I don't know about any other products cuz I only use ff bloom. So far so good when used correctly for MJ plants.

Do you know if I ccan use Hydro Nutes? I would think that all I really need to caution is actual mixing the right parts??

Or should I just be simple and roll with the FF Bloom?

Cheers

I would roll with the bloom if they are going in dirt but I don't have a lot of XP with anything else.

Those are some nice lookin' plants you got gowin. Hydro nutes are fine for soil, just use a weaker dose of them. As far as the 1 plant outdoors filling in more, it needs more light, 3-4 hours a day isn't really sufficient. If you have it in a pot you could always bring it inside to give it more light. hope that helps.
