Still no alternating branches ?_?

[weezy05]

hey this is my first post on the site and i been lookin around this forum for about a month to get tips on growing my bag seed plant. I watched the youtube green guy and i made my own ghetto version. Its been about 34 days and i have about 7 nodes and still i have no alternating branches. Has any one had this problem? or is it not a problem...just a genetics thing in the strain?
the reason im waiting for alternating branches is cause i read that i had to wait for them to come out before cloning. Thanks for the replies

I have cloned off a plant that had no alternating nodes with no problems. But just make sure you get a set of nodes below the dirt.

She'll be fine, like Crazy said some plants dont get alternating nodes....you plant even looks about ready for 12/12, just make sure that the room is COMPLETELY dark when you start it. She looks good...good luck with the grow :cool2: and i got the same mirrored in aviators haha

i was planning on putting it into flowering in about a month from now. problem is...i only have 2 sylvania 100watt hps bulbs ( no ballast ) so i was planning on doubeling my cfl bulbs on during 12 12. Also for flowering i have this sorry fertilizer its named schultz "plant food plus" 10-15-10 (i dont have hydro stores to go to..only home depot and lowes) . i was wondering if that fox farm bloom stuff or other popular flowering ferts really make an omg jaw dropping difference compared to the stuff i have. thanks for the extremely fast replies and welcomes

..in 25+ yrs, "I" never recall seeing a plant that didn't alternate nodes. I'd be willing to bet, the first joint of TBG's little finger, that within the next 2-3 weeks, alternating nodes apppear..
... BUT.. you can take cuttings at anytime. As long as you have sufficient secondary growth to take them from.
The problm you are going to run into with the flourescents, is penetration, on that big of a plant. Anything further than about 6 inches from those tubes, will NOT recieve sufficient light.

 

[weezy05]

even with the awesome coke can reflectors? haha im sure they dont make light penetration better but they do make a difference some how in my short experience.

[weezy05]

You should check out sections on LST. LST can really increase the effectiveness of CFLs. Good luck with your grow!
