Hey Jarhead, thanks for the help man..

 

I think this is bad news, I took pictures of the plant on monday, then today... It's been growing and growing EVERYDAY bigger, no problem man, BUT today, like 6-9 leaves are hanging over and stuff, yesterday, they were all sticking up and looking healthy.

 

these werent all the top branches, with the buds growing on them.. What I think happened is, I didn't stay there lastnight (at my house with my gf) and I usually water the plant ALOT!

 

Now, I spoke to her dad and he was there lastnight and he said he didn't either, so I was thinking, maybe it was that they didn't get enough water?

 

I've still been using Xtreme grow, 5ml with 1litre of water, and now that you say "12 inches" switch over, well shit.. I definetely should switch over, within the next week because it's bigger than that.

 

I'll be sure to upload a couple pics for you

Don't overwater! Biggest fucking killer of plants next to bugs and disease is OVER watering.

maaaaaan that little face was me when I seen the plant this afternoon when the lights come on..

 

A mate of mine said to water it until it's seeping out of the hose..

 

Hopefully, when I get this usb port cord for the camera, you'll be able see a little more what you think..

also man, I've been told, "SOGS" is good, I have no idea what that is, if anyone could help?

 

I wanna try get a good 5-7 ounces, off the plant.

SOG is sea of green and means a lot of plants in small pots all crammed in close for a short veg. We're talking up to 9 plants per square foot. Plants that tend to stretch and have minimal lateral growth are well suited to sog.

 

SCROG is screen of green and basically the opposite of sog. SCROG is when you put a mesh screen above the plant and train the plants to branch out through the screen like a vine so fewer plants scread out over a greater area. It means a longer veg time but decent yields with fewer plants which is a big thing IMO.

 

If you ever get busted you'll be much better off having one or two massive plants in scrog than 20 or 30 little ones in a sog even though both setups would be of a similar size and yield.

 

If the law wasn't a concern SOG is the quickest and most high yielding method for indoor growing.

Yup, for sure.

 

Theres a couple of different ways Ive used a screen.

The first was a branch to each hole, and let it grow up.

The next was a flat screen where it was all trained flat to the screen.

 

The flat method is work, But produces pretty good.

 

Sog is a good method, but like Pipeman said. The laws are shit here.

Cheers for the help, Pipeman and Ferengi, the plant has actually surprised me..

 

I umm, cut off and trimmed the dead leaves and tied the plant down, using very thin rope.. The buds have started to flower really nicely, since I put them on the 12/12 cycle.. The buds have started to lift up to the light again, even tied down.. I made sure everybit of the plant has light.. I originally had the plant hidden in black plastic, since using the pandafilm, you can notice the heat difference, instantly..

p.s Jarhead, I believe i was underfeeding the plants, when I moved them from the smaller pots, to the large one it's in now, only the top HALF of the cloneblock was wet, so I figured I should "tip" the water in..

 

I made sure not to overwater and it's coming along nicely.. Cheers man

 

Pics coming soon
