DAY 8 OF FLOWER..most of the soil plants wer sexed before i flowered not much has happened since i swiched over a week ago ..
how long does it take for a plant to start buddin i know its just 8 days but they have not really changed they grew about 6'' and the hairs that wer der before flower havnt really done anything
just a bit worried :angrywife:

can any of u shed light on how the plants flower wen they take off etc..im not sure
i know cant rush nature but iv heard of folks going 11/13 to flower faster..summer coming and temps are on the up..it looks like i will have temp problem in my grow space..any how shud try to flower em faster..?
temps humidity ph are all on point..
heres some pics

They should start taking off any time now sara. Patience is hard at this point in the grow. Mine are at day 20 of flower and the buds are getting fatter every day now! Keep us posted on the beautiful ladies. Take care and be safe.

 

[allgrownup]

they start showing flowers arround a couple weeks or so. depends.


get some bud blast or some kind of flower inhibitor....then switch to a nute for big buds....then formulate for dense ness...oh sheesh...they have a product for everthing

 

[sillysara]

instead off 12/12 shud i do 11/13 to make em flower faster since i cud have heat issue's comin the end of may..id have a problem if i have to flower em in june..ty

 

[50bud]

I havent heard much of 11/13 i have heard of 13/11 with great success because of the extra hour of the photoperiod that the plants get. Those summer temperatures do get hot, might be too late, or you can gradually work your way up to lights on during the night hours when it is cool and the lights off during daylight as long as the room is sealed of all light.

 

[smokybear]

I would keep it at 12/12 but if your heat becomes an issue, you can run your lights at night and off during the day. That would help a lot with the heat issues if they become a problem. They will start to fatten up. Just give them time my friend. Keep us posted on your progress. Take care and be safe.

 

[lax4wm]

can't wait to see summa of that cough, care to share?

 

[sillysara]

im runnin the lights at nite but come mid may i cud have a problem.. i heard they flower faster with hr extra of darkness, if that was a way to flower faster id do it.. maybe when the heat comes an issue i cud do it then plus i have a choice to replace 1 4oo hps for some floro's that would be the expensive choice so im tryn other wise let us know wat all think..

 

[smokybear]

You could possibly use floros but your yield would be negatively affected. I'm not sure if they flower faster with an extra hour of darkness. It makes sense because the plant will want to finish up before the first frost. I can't be certain though. Hopefully someone else with more knowledge in this area can help. Keep us posted sara. Take care and be safe.

im gonna leave them at 12/12 for a few weeks and if ill have a problem i will change them 13/11 for the last 5 weeks..all my strains are sexed.

6) strawberry cough mostly stavia
2) orangebud 55%indica45%stavia
7) passion#1 100%indica

all plants above are showin hairs and are lookin good came on in the last day.
the plants that i thought wer male have not shown any signs yet day 9 of flower i thought i would be seen sex (balls)
maybe they are hermie's...i have them hangin around the grow room ill give em a few more days..
here some pics= first 6 are the hydro passion#1 and last three are of my soil orangebud

 

[sillysara]

very bored thought id give some insight the first pic is a possible male i had 1 arjanhaze#2 but ive seen hairs on it and this plant may be stavia and slow to kick off.
u can see in 1 of the photos that the growth in the hydro plants over the last two week doubled in size and still grown .. i got to tell u since i started flower'n on the first ive been adding sensi bloom part A and B and they been looking great..i have 5 lowryder that are5 days old, they are in the grow room under 12/12 with the others im not grown so much for the weed but more for seeds(hope a 100).. ill take the males outta der wen they pop up..and hope come july they be ready to plant and cud harvest them first week of september
last pic is of the orangbud looking good.. alright guys im off now but be sure to be back ahhh lol
p.s the hydro plants are outdoor passion1 the guy at the store said they wer indoor as some of u that informed me that they would grow tall ..but other wise they shud be fine

DAY 16 OF FLOWER
FIRST 2 PICS ARE OF THE SOIL GROW AND THE REST ARE MY HYDRO..
i think the hydro will be finished before the soil grow bein indica in a hydro system shud finish before the soil..thats wat i think but maybe im wrong and bein new at it ..or begginers luck maybe..well ill keep u updated anyhow in a few days and ill not be hoggin the forum from now on lol later

 

[Zepplin]

Hi sillysara,

Very impressive grow. I think your right, the Hydro should finish before the soil. I've read that the Hydro can shave a week or two off the growing cycle. Thats why I chose it.

As for the light/dark thing, I would not go below 12hr of light. Remember, its the light that is providing the energy for them girls to be making bud!

Good Luck
