Fast lemon cake indoors

[mr.brunch]

Day 26, all potted up into 20L pots of peat based compost and into the tent… rose cutting in the middle from some roses little miss b had for her birthday … I managed to root a shoot in some water, now it’s off to the races.

Lets go

8 days on and changing rapidly… just removed a couple of central leaves that were fighting for space and given them a nice feed.
Day 34

Looking good MrB.

Any time I tried 20lt pots in a tent (2/2.2metre in height) using various training techniques, I found by the time the roots had filled the pots to switch them over to flower they were humongous even before the stretch.

The veg time usually consisted of 6-7 weeks from birth, if I go less on the veg time the roots won't have filled the pots..

I was running HPS (still am) maybe this is were we are seeing the benefits of LED?

Just stocked up on whisky and Guinness for a weekend of shenanigans and antics the shamrock ☘ is going to get a good drowning..

Best wishes to you and yours...

Hey mate
I usually try to give them 3/4 weeks in the smaller pots ( allows me to slip them in the tent at night when the lights are on, then window sill in the day) then repot at around 4 weeks old and give them a week or two veg to get up to height by around 6 weeks old when I start to see little preflowers then flip.
These should be flipping either tomorrow or Monday.

Hope you have a blinding weekend, be sure to have one for me

6 days later, growing nice and vigorously.. at day 40 now and preflowers are starting to show so I have decided to flip tonight
Game on.

Edit: they’ll be on 13h light/11h dark for the first 2-3 weeks, then down to 12/12

The rose has done well and will be removed tomorrow, then hardened off and put outside

Day 10 flower
Marching along, I came in a little early with the feed this time so there’s a few burnt tips… they’ve had 5 straight waterings since so should be ok.
Young flowers forming..
