Would it be too late in my case to start LST? It's almost two months old but still very small and slow growing (very low level of nutrients might be the cause.) There are two little dots at the base of each node but they have not changed in size in the last week and a half. I wish I could post a...

Lily pad is my Grey long haired tabby, she's almost 2 years old and there's not one dog that she hasn't fearlessly chased after. Lucy is my Husky mix, she's about 2.5 yrs old and very shy but sweet.

might not make a huge difference but face the fan at the plant. If it doesn't cool the plant more efficiently, it will at least strengthen the plant's structure.

here's a reference for symptoms and solutions if it helps any- http://www.rollitup.org/view.php?pg=faq&cmd=article&id=37

if the buds look healthy, I would worry too much, I've seen some plant experience N def at different times during flowering, but trust your gut. You've got a point on light burn, since it seems that the affected areas are concentrated towards the top of the plant. maybe back the lamp off a bit...

If it is nute burn, you can flush the soil and let it be for a week or two. it's also a good idea to not add any nutes during this period.

I know during flowering it will get a serious case of nitro-def, which is ok and expected. I can't tell if that's nute burn or just a nitrogen deficiency with the blurry pic, but I'm banking on a simple case of lacking nitrogen. feel free to let me know if you think that's not the case and I'll...

the pointy little triangle things, are there two on each node? if so, this is true in my case and I think I just 'gasmed... I heard that it's less stressful on a plant to give it an entire day of light before flowering, any truth to this?

I will take your advice for one reason- the boosh does own. Oh, more background- I'm not really using nutes, just flushed out MG soil with 25% perlite. should I add nutes or is it too late at this point to be introducing it to a nutrient schedule? if so, what would you recommend that wouldn't...

ok, my plant has recovered from the nute burn and is working on it's sixth node however it's less than 6 inches tall( leaves only take up about a fourth of the plant height.) Does this seem weird? I keep reading recommendations to start flowering at 5th or 6th node. This seems too early in my...

ok, my plant has recovered from the nute burn and is working on it's sixth node however it's less than 6 inches tall. Does this seem weird? I keep reading recommendations to start flowering at 5-6 node. This seems too early in my case. Although that whole month long battle of nute burn might be...

Anybody ever have problems with sets of leaves being too close? This plant is barely growing stem anymore, it's all leaves and ****. I'm paranoid that the top leaves will block the lower leaves from the light. I'll post a picture in the morning.

For the time being I'll buy another cfls to bring the lumen to the 5000/sq ft mark and try to put together a box to keep the light from escaping. Once I get more money I plan on buying some bulbs and nutrients, anyone have recommendations on that? should I just buy a bulb for flowering?

I don't have enough money for an upgrade on lighting right now but I plan on it. should these cfls work for now though? combined, they put out about 3500 lumens, if that information helps

update- The plant has not grown upwards but there is slow growth of new leaves out of the top. all the tips are turning a hint of purple, figured it was getting too cold at night so I switched the light cycles to have it on at night and off during the day. lower leaves are still yellowing...
