Tell your dad to get the foil out of there asap as this absorbes light and/or reflects it where u dont want it and can damage your plants or worse still cause a fire. Painting the walls matt white works best. Other than that, nice healthy looking plants......good luck.

cant wait to this summer for a complete flowering
i started to grow this brainstorm in november at my grand mom home
im using a 250w lamp and its going too slow
in the past i used a 450 w lamp
so fast but too expensive

(wait to load the page)

ga, I thought that the size of the lamp didn't make any differance time wise, if the plant needs 9 weeks to flower it'll take that long no matter what size the bulb that it's under?

im not a grower but in the past using this time at 10-12 hours i had more flowers
im trying from a week (its the 10 week of flowering) to give 8 hours of light
i looked pics of indoor plants with more to one year at 12 hours with the leafs all white for the resin (impossible to do outdoor cause the leafs die in flowering)
these are not the best plant that i did but i hope to can smoke a little bit waiting no less to another 50 days

valo: do you use some nutrient addiction or only water?
the plant are made from it self or do you cut the top of the plants

I think we added some plant feed to help them start to grow but nothing more. My dads friend (who has quite a bit of experience growing his own) recommended some other miracle grow type fluid but we didn't add that this time around as they are looking pretty healthy at the moment and smell very much like a coffeeshop.....or so i'm told since i'm so far away right now!!

It's cool you and your pop can share weed and growing tips. Props to pop for growing in soil as well.

A new picture I just received, I been told the growing has slowed quite a bit which is to be expected but they still seem to be doing very well. I did mention about the foil but I can't do much else other than advise from my end of the phone/internet.


11 weeks

A new picture of one of the flowers coming through...I been told there are roughly 100 of these over the 5 plants so far, even if they only turn out to be 1g each that's not a bad bag of smoke at the end of growing.

I'm growing diselrider, how big is ur lowryder 2?

It's that small you can't even see it!!

It's been smoked, it was about 10/12" tops, not a very big yiled but that was partly down to me thinking it wouldn't need a very big pot but I've read since they have big rootballs and need some space so dont make the same mistake I made, I have to say though it was a pretty decent smoke, very fruity and quite strong, I'd love to put some under a 400-600 watt bulb and leave the light on 24 hrs and see what happens.

i did around 40 grams with 5 plants using ONLY water
i RESTART the vegetative time from a couple of weeks
im using now CELLMAX nutrient and i expect to do around 200 grams for august

i cant wait to see what this nutrient can do for the flowers
its beauty to see in the same plant a part re living and a part diing

The pot was very small, only big enough to start the seed off, get yours in a bigger post as soon as possible as the root system needs to grow and it'll do this from the very beginning, when I get back from Amsterdam I plan on popping some more and I'm going to stick them in 10litre pots from the start.

They prefer longer light cycles as well, as they are auto-flowering you can get away with leaving them under the light for 24hrs a day but they also like 18/6, I put mine on a 12/12 light cycle as I was flowering some normal plants at the same time.

cellmax nutrient make the difference also using this low illumination system
