Just not sure what is going on. I change lights time to 16/8 and things started to change. This is my first grow seed to now 8/26 the seeds are from a 3 different bags from dispensary. I have White 99 and one clone of it, a Strawberries n Cream and one clone, last is Early Lemon Berry and 3 clones. So any advice would be appreciated.
! And is this also what is called hairs in the pics[quote=“Dragonflydreams, post:1, topic:80292, full:true”]

Are these mothers or are you flowering them? Flowering light cycle should be 12/12. On an 18/6 you won’t get any flower growth and they will stay in vegetative production. The plants look like they are in pretty good shape although like mentioned above they are massive to just start flowering. Especially for the lights being a bit small. If I were trying to flower these plants I would take the tall ones and super crop them to spread the branches in hopes of getting more light penetration and better flower production since you won’t get much if any bud on the lower 1/2 to 2/3 of the plants at this height. Also something to keep in mind is that in flower the plant will double in size so if the thought was longer veg to get more buds you’ve got to keep the stretch that occurs in flower in mind because it can make a big plant unmanageable indoors. At this point make some decisions as to what the long term goal is based on the space you have. In my opinion I would spread the branches and flower them. Next run you do flower the plants when they are smaller so they don’t outgrow the pots and your light/grow space. Otherwise your doing good!
Also if these younger clones can be separated into a different tent to grow out a little bigger before flowering, you would get much better production out of them. It would also give you plenty of room to spread out the big plants without blocking the light from your smaller clones. Lastly if you have the money I would recommend getting a bigger light or an additional light so it’s more evenly distributed over the canopy.
I know I need to get a couple more lights. The guy I talk to at dispensary said I should count it as a loss and start over but I’m just not sure I want to do that. Not sure
Don’t start over you’ll still get some smokable bud and some growing/flowering experience. The little hairs are her showing her sex. Change light to 12/12 and she will start flowering after a week or two of preflowering since she’s already starting to put out hairs/pistils.
You’re gonna need to bend the taller plants over. Once MJ starts to flower they start the stretch and can double in size in a matter of a couple weeks. Once they start flowering you have 8-12 more weeks before they’ll be done
those super thin leaves could be genetics (sativa) or it could be from acidic soil, as has happened to me lately. so maybe check on that.
looking good otherwise.
goshdarn idiot hydro store guys. my local guy told
me i was growing poop and then sold me neem oil to use on a flowering plant. i trust the info from this site much more, and i go to the other store now.
I would be careful about letting folks including dispensary workers know I have a grow room in my house. They may have thieves for friends. Just my two cents
Not sure what you’re expecting or what you feel the problem is? If you’re growing bag seed from dispensary weed, it’s most likely going to be from photoperiod plants. That means they aren’t going to flower until light schedule is reduced to 12 hours. If you’ve been growing since August expecting them to flower, this is the problem.
Nice plants. I would supercrop now to stop upward growth. Flip to 12/12. Cannabis will stretch lower limbs up if top is broken and laid over. It always wants an apex cola. Once you hit max height topem if needed. They should stop going up and start filling out. I have mothers try my patience when they shoot up sometimes. If getem topped right where you max out in stretch i bet your good. Since photo you can workem a bit. Just my thoughts.
I was also just thinking. Photo and healthy. You can if you wanted whack them boogers off about a foot or so and vegem out wider. I broke main on this mother going from a 10 to a 20. Rebuilt her shape with a longer veg letting lower branches come up. Not sure if that is feasable on purpose. Others would know.
Ok I have done something called super crop 2 of them and going to tie down I will take pics and one I’m going to bend and tie them thank u everyone for your advice
