First Grow : No money closet edition

[GlenWong]

Hi,

Week5Day4
She's doin great, real bushy, and i did tied her up real good since everybody says that it's the best to do when growing with cfls.

Week6Day1
Looks like a fucking bonsai tree, i just don't want her to be a him.

Week3Day2
growing slow, as always, i might give her but if not i'll SOG her.

ok bye.

We got some pre-flower going on and happy me, my girls are actually girls! ^^
Wanted to ask when should i start flowering cycle? Like, i know i can veg them as long as i want but at what time is the right time?
Cheers.

[Schmokin]

Hi Glen. There is no 'right' time. Remember that they will stretch quite a bit after you flip so take that into account. You are going to need enough space and enough light to deal with that. Maybe you could invest in some more light for the flowering period.
Soon.

bunch of photo update,

My girls are 4 days into the flowering cycle

Week8Day1
Doin craazy, like Schmokin said earlier, she did stretched and unfortunately i was out of town for 2 whole days and when i came back she was making out with one of my bulbs -_-
but other than that she's going strong.

Week7Day4
omg... she is growing so fat and so quick that some of the main tops are falling over, what should i do? Getting more lights?Feeding her more often(i flushed her 2 days ago)?Tying her up?

I might start giving them blooming nutrients (0-50-30 i believe)

cheers.

Week2 of flowering heeello

[Saturnalia]

There they go! It's a lovely sight eh....

[RGB378]

Use your best judgemental. Watch out for shit hawks!

[Saturnalia]

If the tips get too close to the lights Glen, just gently bend them over and tie them down out of the way. Be careful not to snap the stems. It's easy to do and will allow the lower buds to get more light and then they will grow fatter too.

[GlenWong]

i thought of doing this but instead i let them stretch and just moved the lights up

[GlenWong]

Week3 of flowering. Leeet's goo!

Week6Flower

i've got some leaf curling down after watering (with nutrient), so until harvest i've decided to only give them plain water unless one of you convince me not to.
Can't believe how quick time passed since i've started all of this!

[Saturnalia]

Less is more brother. I would be happy to give water only. If you do feel the need to feed, use a very diluted feed. What's the estimated flowering time of these anyway?

[GlenWong]

No idea, they're bagseed, i've just estimated at least 8 weeks of flowering.

[Saturnalia]

Aye. Even the 8 weekers often take a bit longer, at least if you like your weed to have some oomph.
