I think there going to get bigger still over the next week before they reach full stretch they only started to pre flower about 5 days ago !!! starting to worry if I'm going to run out of room

Anyway enough of my grow over to you gingerb best of luck with your grow going to follow this keep the pics and updates coming

sorry about the pink pics guys only really take them for my reference

Your plants are looking fine, I'm starting to worry with my NLxBB since LST its grown wild but the tops have all grown at a steady height.

Ok keep in touch I think your roughly week or so behind or in front of me.
How many weeks of flowering have you done currently?
Am just about to start week 3 of flowering today.

Day 42 (Start of week 3 of Flowering)
I'd be interested to know some peoples views on nutes when watering, as I currently watering with nutes every other watering with bio-bloom, bio-grow and top max.
Just increased my water to 1litre when watering every 4 days, with 1ml grow, 1ml topmax and 2ml bloom.

Can you get away with watering with nutes every watering? and then flush the last 2 weeks of flowering?

The NLxBB has looked abit droopy over the last few days, watered today with nutes so am hoping the plant perks up by the morning.

I water 3 X a day average with full strength nutes. However I water lightly. My medium is 1/2 coco and 1/2 soil so it stays pretty loose. This is what DinaFem recommends for the autos. I have 6 - 3 gallon pots plus 2 - 2 gallon with all coco. I use 2 gallons a day for all 8 pots so I guess that is a quart of water daily per pot. Works well for me and I never have nute burn using this method.

Think you are about a week in front of me I wont be thinking about switching to flower nutes for about a week yet unless they slow down growing up before then. as far as how often you should feed yours I wish I could be more help, I grow my auto's in DWC so only feed on water change every week but I have found this strain very sensitive to the nutes my E.C is only 0.5 at the minute any more and they start to tip slightly when normally my E.C at this point would be somewhere around 0.8 - 1.0. Do have a feeling this might be more down to the LED I'm using, it's my first grow with it so still getting dialled in to using it somewhat (already finding a lot more factors to have to take in to account when using it compared to HPS)
I do grow my photosensitive plants in coco though and the rule of thumb I follow there is if the pot is light as hell then it needs a feed if not then its good for another day:smoke:happy days

Cheers for the advice guys, not sure if am gonna stick with using nutes every other watering or not at the moment.
Just waiting for light to come this evening to see how the NLxBB is after watering with nutes yesterday, plus sudden drop in temps here in the UK today.
