Hiya

I have been on here before but STILL not having a laptop means posting is difficult....last posted at week 5 of my grow. Stil no pictures as can't upload but am hoping someone can reassure me that these plants re going the way they are ment to? Here is where im at

My plants are 10 weeks old. I have 2. One is an osiris auto the other a anubis.

Ones in a 2litre pot the other a 5litre. Both are potted with biobizz all mix medium and have been getting water that has a ph of 7(little high I know) and are both under 250watt CFLs which have been kept a minimum of 7inches away from the plant throughout he grow.....I changed from a veg light to flower at week 7. The one in a 5litre stands at 80cm the other at 60cm

Problems I've had.....

Because I used a biobizz all mix instead of light mix I found that when I started adding grow nutes (jst 2.5ml to 2litres of water) I found I got nute burn especially on the smallwe plant I discontinued grow nutes and instead jst topped of the top soil with some fresh hoping that the nutes in that would b enough.

I live in the UK am growing indoors bit did not have good control of temp so was a little to cold in here during the 1st 4weeks which I think stunted it(temps were bout 15-17C.

They entered flower from what I noticed at about week 7. I started adding grow nutes but am being very shy about he amount. Im in week 10 now and watered them with nutes bout 4 times...smaller one bout 3.

I've also started 2 new plants that are 4 weeks in now. For a while I had(2weeks) a 250 grow and a 250 flower CFL going in the same tent but hav since gone with jst 500watt of flowering as I have read that this could b confusing the plant.

I also believe that it was too hot in the tent for about 2weeks as the 2 cfls really do heat the inside up. I checked online and am convinced it was too hot easily pushing 28 in there but cnt b sure.

Anyway my problem is that when I, for example look at the pics on here of what a plant should look like at this stage mine dnt come close.

Then fan leaves have started to turn yellow..couple bud leaves too. My stalks / branches are very red on the small plant getting that way on the big1. My main concern though is there is nothing that resembles a bag of bud on the plant....I have white hairs (which I think are called pistils) they are very long jst over a cm and hey have started turning orange bout 5-10 % when I look at the underneath I can see little sparkling crystals in some places. When I look at others...like muddys thread 'how to know when o harvest your plant' it's says that the plant will start to yellow fans leaves 1st followed by the bud leaves. But he pictures all show thick bud growth between the nodes and the leaves all I see is yellowing leaves and a shit load of white and orange hairs....is it a bust? Will the buds not develope because im concerned that I should b seeing something that resembles weed by now. Any help would b greatly appreciated and I apologise store n e spelling doing this all from a very very dodgy phone :-)

Going to have a stab in the dark here , your plants are stretched (tall) leaves are faded im i close , id say keep your cfl's 2 to 3" above your plants and you have not been giveing them enough nutes mate make sure theres a fan in there moveing the air about and you will need extraction as well as a cf for the smell

but without pics im screwed mate and this is only a guess buddie :peace:
 
With out some pictures it's hard to tell,but you say you have alot of white pistol hairs and this tells me the buds are forming and they are getting some trychomes.It does take some time for the buds to form so just hang in there and and you will get some weed.Wait until all the white hairs turn brown and this will tell you that they should be ready to harvest.
 
Im going to try nd upload some pic tonight so hopefully someone can see them and tell me if it's on th right track. Thanks for the reply will try and positively :-) but dnt Seem right to me ...but am a noob.
 
hiya

I managed to get some photos put up. hopefully they'll help and u look bk at this thread.


the 1st 4 pics are of the larger plant in the 5litre and the other 5 r of the smaller in the 2 litre pot

the top of the main cola is a bit wider than my thumb and as you can see my leaves have started to look yellow. I'm 10 weeks and don't thinkI they are as developed as they should be so am thinking there gonna come to the end of there life cycle before putting on any more bud. but then I'm not sure about much being my 1st grow

do you think the heats stunted them?... sum kind of nute deficiency... or something I have not mentioned??.. cheers for any help dude :-)

Kl dude didn't see this reply I pposted my thread twice... I've replied on the other with sum pics:-) need me more from a better angle or anything let me no bud.
 
There actualy looking ok hitch as there nearly done so may be next time round get bigger pots and work out a feed program for them but for the first time mate there looking ok mate if anything a tad under fed and need bloom nutes , next time start in a less ferted soil as this can stunt them a bit with being hot and keep the light on top of them as i said in the other thread mate

Go and read a few diarys just make sure there useing bio-bizz nutes and soil and this will give you a good idea of what to do next time round hitch, good luck with the rest of your grow buddie :peace:

Pm me when your about to start your next grow and i'll tag along mate
