First Time Indica Grower

[swstoner]

Hi all I am growing a couple of indica plants this year and they are very tall like they arent getting enough sun?? My sativas in the same spot are fine.... Is this normal?? I am growing outdoors Cheers

there are way too many variables with the environment and genetics to give you a proper answer without more details, eg. how many hours of direct sunlight are they getting, wether the plants are in the ground or in pots, how much water they recieve, what nutrients they are being fed, the strains you are growing, etc. Basically the more info you can give the better the answers will be and some pics wouldn't hurt either

[loylty gets u nothing]

have u got pics?

indicas tend to be short stout plants

that dont stretch a great deal during flower

ive found to geta decent yield from 100% indica a big vege time is required

again we would need pics to attempt to diagnose

take care

Ive already forgotten wich strains were wich now, but all up I have got blackberry, G13 haze, parvarti, guerillas gusto, stoned immaculate, afgahn hazex afghan skunk, and skunk 44s... I think thats all.... damn stoner memory!! they are in half 44s with perlite vermiculite, peat, dynamic lifter, water crystals and the natural soil, I think it might be the sunlight when they were seedlings as they are quite bushy on top just have long stems still have there water leaves on and they are about 8 inches tall with about 3 inches of stem before the water leaves. i will put some pics up when they are getting along but not real keen on having any evidence around the house.... Apart from the 15 more seedlings.... oops need to get them out bush soon too before the mrs forgets to water them while Im away!!!!
