I can’t believe how much these plants have grown. I’m new to this. So don’t know what next. Keep them in veg? How long ?
Closet grow
- Thread starter newdude1776
- Start date
I veg 4+ weeks at a minimum. I've started plants at 21days old. They do fine and grow much like a auto would.
Your plant will double in size in flower. No joke man it can even triple depending on the strain. Timing the grow is important if ya have limited space.
Normally I'll veg a plant 6-8wks or more. Lots of things to consider before ya flip. Timing, growth, environment.
Bigger plant veg longer...smaller plants veg less. Anxious to pull that trigger ain't ya...lol

Should I do any more topping ?
You can but once is enough really. I never top plants but many do.
These will be 8 weeks tomorrow.
I typically would put in scrogg netting for branch support and flip to flower about this size. But that all depends on room. Like @greenmobster440 said they will double at least in size once you flip them to flower.
But these I am keeping for mothers till I get my hydro set up running again.

You have a pest look for caterpillars or little eggs under the leaves. BT or DE will help
I veg photos a min of 8 weeks. You can do less but your plant will be small
If it is an auto it will flower all by itself

Can’t believe this.
You probably need to pluck all that bottom stuff off, anyway.
I love hearing all the doubt, and questioning in your voice.
Don’t worry, it’s all a learning process.
It will come together before you know it.
Just keep studying the plants.
They will tell you what to do.

Like just cut all the bottom leaves off? Cut them where the leaf starts ? Or cut them at the stalk ?

@newdude1776 most people say do bottom ⅓ of the plant, some decent vids on YouTube if you need references. I just got done with a defoliation again too. Though I don't really lollipop but I try to get most of the small stuff off
Lollipoping is an advanced move for a new guy. Most folks do it for air flow. Some believe it makes bigger buds up top.
I'd let these develop a while. They are looking good.

I always used side lighting and kept the bottom bud growth for edibles or to give to friends. Mostly popcorn buds but still good weed. But to each his own.
I'm curious to see how much larf I'll get with these floaters. I've not cleaned under them like I do a framed scrog so I'm sure there will be some.
I use the larf in the salve and edibles. It works my salve rocks!

Plants and soil not absorbing water. Pour it in and comes right out the bottom. Think I’ve poured water in to fast and there are channels in soil just flowing though. How to fix you think?
Submerge whole pot in water in bigger container and wait for bubbles ive read ? I do t know. But there very dry and not happy.

Yeah just try watering slowly. Take a fork n break up the surface before ya water them.
Check the weigh of the pot when you think it's well soaked. If heavy your good to go. No need to submerge a plant. Just be sure your soaking the whole medium when you water.
