please need some help

I'd leave it for another 2 wks BB, that way you can compare the stone from both harvests and see for yourself if there's much difference.

What have you got to lose by leaving the rest to finish?

i have nothing to loose ,only more money running the lights, my mother plant is not ready for cutting new clones yet anyway,she got about 2 weeks of growing before cloning.

 

im thinking about letting it go for anuver 2 weeks,do you think i should change light hour to 13 on 11 off ? at the mo its running on 12-12 and has been runing 12-12 for 8 weeks

 

what should i do about the feeding ? im in nft and was 2 weeks into the flushing stage. at the mo i have set the ec at 0.7 and thats at half strenth for my nutes im using

 

oh one more Q please, do you think that by cutting the top cola's of the plant like i have done, was really stressful to the plant & that the plant could go really hermie on me now ?.

 

THANKS IN ADVANCE

Yep let them go another 2 weeks + be patient

Q 2. Leave the light at 12/12

Q 3. Leave the nutes around 0.7 -1.0 for a week and drop back to 0 for 7-10 days

Q 4. Stressful? yes, not that you'll notice though imo. The buds won't get any bigger but any smaller ones now exposed to the light should darken up trichome wise and swell the calyx

Q 5 Will chopping the colas cause stress to make them push out male flowers? Imo hermaphrodism is dependant on past breeding, if the plant has a slight hermie trait in it's makeup it will poke out male flowers at a certain stage of growth regardless. Letting a plant flower for a long time will sometimes bring it out as well.

A good female should not poke out male flowers after the top colas are chopped.

sweet, thanks for all that info Bufo marinus. that cleared up all my questions.

 

i will let it go for 2 more weeks then & ill let you no if all went well, i have high hopes

[biggerbuds]

just a little update, ive pulled the grow down because ive got a few things that i need to improve in the grow room & that will take me a few weeks to sort out, and by that time my cuttings should have roots.

 

the top cola's that i cut off are pokey bud,i had 2 joints of it last night and it blow my head off ,im still feeling a little stoned even now.

 

from the top cola's i got 23 ounces of dryed bud and i think i should get the same from the next lot that is hanging up, so say i have pulled 40 ounces of bud from 36 plants.i feel that i havent done to bad for my first hydro grow.

i will put photo up of the bud in a few more days
