Greets ~ I think that I'm posting in the right forum. Not much activity here, so we'll see if my thread is moved somewhere else in the forum or not.

1. I'm a first time grower and am using a 90W LED. As I understand it, I'm not permitted to name the LED maker.

2. I'm growing 1 sweet skunk auto feminized plant which is now about 39 days old. The seed bank claimed 49 days from germination to harvest. I don't know if a 180W LED would have accomplished this or not. She's still flowering as of today & no buds. I want some buds!!!!! : )

3. I'm using nutes every week and my girl seems to be doing well.

4. I've had her in the same 11.5 litre (3 gallon) pot since she first germinated. She's about 27 cm (10 inches) high.

5. I'm using a 20/4 light cycle.

My grow is the definition of a "closet grow"! The light is as far down as the chord will allow it to hang and the box has mylar all over it. I'm open to suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong or right, everything I've done has come from gurus on this website! I had stopped the grow about 10 days into it, but I kept 1 plant alive. Here are some pics. I just took:

welcome to afn microwave!:tiphat: your girl look's very healthy and no blemish's:Cushty:this is a good place for your thread,:D: i do believe.
you said you wanted bud's! they are forming and it looks like quite a few site's like 12 preflower's in the pic.Hop digitythe seed bank alway's claim's a faster grow than reality. minimum 8 wks to as long as 12 wks is the average.:2cents: some let them go longer. keep it green!:gthumb:
 
Greets ~ Many thanks for reviewing my girl and also for letting me know that this is the right location for my thread! Hop digity

Being a newbie grower, knowing that my girl's well and I'm not tormenting her is a huge relief. Thank you! :High 5:
 
it is strange, that you love and nurture your girl's for 12 week's or so . then you lop off there head!:ama: micro what country are you in?
keep it green!:D:
 
Yes, I feel like king Henry the 8th. :no:

I'm in Cannaba I mean Canada. :yay:

Day 47 and not much change as you can see from the pics. She's stopped growing up but is still growing out. The leaves around the flowers are starting to get frosty, but I still can't see any buds. I might change the light cycle to 18/6 instead of 20/4 to try and induce budding.

The LED is really quiet and has worked fine throughout the entire grow. Don't know why my girl's a late bloomer... :gthumb:
 
auto's dont realy need to have a light change to bud up. i run 20/4 all the time with auto's . she looks fine:dance2: just needs to grow.a indica pheno will
stay short. you have a nice amount of bud site's:dance:they will stack up! every grower cant wait to smoke there own, me too!:smokebuds:
just give the little lady time!:peace:
 
Thanks for the pearls of wisdom. Being my first ever grow, I really welcome the feedback! :dance:
 
I trimmed her alot while she was young as I wanted alot of branches, that's what I reckon accounts for her large number of bud sites. Same thing I do with my tomato plants to increase their yield :Thank You:
