On Saturday the 20th October ive LSTd them. And today I have FIMed them
Love the Westie! Your also going to love those Northern Lights. My grow of them is wrapping up but here are a few things I learned. They love LST, they are cal mag hogs, ph at 6.6 will keep them thriving, and they clone very easily.

@Familyman Oh yeah i forgot about Ph. It’s 6.5 at the moment but im waiting for the proper tester. Should arrive soon. Yes - both reacted to LST very quickly and straighten up towards light right away :).
Its all so exciting. I swear its my new hobby. Ps. Westie (Ozzie) ate both FIMed leaves haha. He loves my girls. He keeps sniffing the door to the grow room

This hobby has replaced all my others at the moment. What size pots you planning for the final home? What soil you using?
It plain soil with absolutely no nutes in it. At the moment they are in 2 gallon pots but planning to transplant them into 5 gallon air pots in a week or 2 (open to suggestions)
Saw those at my grow store. I’m interested to see if they are all that. How many grows have you done so far?
It’s my first one @Familyman… My first grow. Very exciting
Mine too. Been so much fun and I’ve learned so much.
Ive never thought that i will find “gardening” so thrilling, exciting and even emotional… Haha loving it so far. @Familyman i will talk to you tomorrow as it’s after midnight here… Have to get up early tmrw. Thank you for checking into my little (so far) grow journal xxx
Guys my girls are quite bushy but not too tall. Is 18" from the LED too low???
