Growing by your self sucks

Nothing wrong with a little pollen chucking :D

Since you don't want the early flowering, probably a good idea to make a note of the date for next year. Around here (52N) sexually mature plants put out before mid May will usually start to flower, so it's best not to put out plants before then unless you want an early crop of seeds like I do!

yea im just thrown off. allot of people in my area on this Forum seem to be having no problem planting right now. light schedule was on 16/8 for weeks before planting. there is 14 hrs 30 min of sunlight not including dusk and dawn. thought id be in the clear. im going to have to do some research and see how i can stop this progress.

one day i will soon pollen chuck lol. but ive still got to figure out how to grow :tiphat:
 
Can you replace them? Otherwise yes you can revert them with light.

Not at all. These are my pickiinfo for full term. How can I go about reverting them? Is it strenuous? I did some reading but don't know how true it is. That even just for a few seconds in the middle of dark period with intense lighting will make them reset there dark schedule clock.

What's the techniques that are proven?

Some folks say you need to taper your light schedule to match your outdoors move date. It's possible they started flowering right when you put them out. Are they seed or clone?

I can't speak from personal experience with reverting plants but I've seen a friend reveg plants with 18 hours of fluoros on the side of his house. Theoretically like you read, you could hit them with strong light in the middle of the night. I've been to gardens though where they routinely spray at night with flashlights with no problem so it would definitely have to be real lighting.

The ones I'm worried about are from seed. Well I guess it won't hurt to try then. I'll be getting up at 3 a.m then and walking around with my T5 for a bit lol. Guess it won't hurt to try.

If they were getting more than 18 before being put out that might have something to do with the early onset, otherwise weather. Just my two cents. I seen someone use solar driveway lights for supplemental light.
 
If this cutting can start re veggin in natural light after idk. Let's say it was at least 5 weeks into flower. Then screw it. They will snap back fine. Not like my starts aren't already 3-4 ft tall. Got some room for error I suppose. I will give them some hydrolyzed fish foliars and maybe an alfalfa tea this weekend. Just to make sure they know what time it is.

I'm a bit of a picture whore. Ran across my hand while I was tellin the ladies how good there gonna be this season. I flipped out a bit. Probably looked pretty funny if anyone could have seen me. Like Martin Lawrence on national security when the bee came around.... But I survived.

Looking good. Seems like light is the only thing, when they go too far things get way slowed down. Folks like to throw high N at them. Seems like you're picking a good mellow N route. Stressing them with potent fert doesn't seem like much of a help to me.

I've only given them water. I was thinking of doing some fish foliar for some good N boost but it seems like every time I give them a good water I get the Witches claw.

Would you oppose giving them ant N if I'm getting the claw when just watering?

Find some nettles OD, and get some tea going - chop roughly and throw in a bucket/bin with enough water to cover them, then cover with lid and wait for about 2 weeks. Give it a good stir after about a week. Your plants will love it if you water them with a dilute solution. It'll supply all the N they need.

Too late for this year, but buy some Bocking 14 comfrey root sections, and you'll have the perfect flowering feed for next year.

Between the two, there's no need for anything else apart from amending soil at the start. Simple, cheap, and effective.
 
What really sucks is being crippled and growing
By yourself lol

Not gonna argue with thay lol. Nice to have a online community for sure. Keeps everyone local, but safe.

Well whatever funk the plants were in with the pre flowering they have def snapped out of. Thought one good one was a loss for sure. Didn't grow much and has grown 5 inches at least since yesterday. All well here in the 916! This season is going to be a big one for me if I can avoid the coppers , rippers and bugs! The last 2 years of bugging and learning are really starting to pay off! :tiphat::peacock::thank you:
