haha thanks man this is my first go at lst :) ive also topped it once and the un-lst plant has been topped once then again once the Y grew in i cut one off hoping that might work :D
 
When you transplant dont put them in clear containers! The roots grow much more stress free and faster when there in the dark. Think of mother nature, theres no sun underground! I would use black or at least greened out containers and you'll be much less likely to have problems with mold, rot, and just slow growth. Thats a awesome LST by the way, i dont think ive ever seem one quite like that! Grow on

thats the very reason why i have that container wrapped in a thick bandanna. i just tied down some leaves so the new growth get more light

Looking good man. Glad to see it come back around :good:

whats your plan for soil mix? straight ffof? I like to cut mine with light warrior. lets it drain alot better. But, I know how it is when you only need a a cup full and dont want to spend the money a bunch of soil. lol

:wave:

My arsenal: aerated water with black strap molasses in spray bottle, FF Grow Big, Rooting hormone.

if i were you i would add perilite to your soil from now on. It will help to air up your medium, and air is what the roots need! When i grew is soil i had a 60/40 dirt/ perilite mix. its cheaper cause perilite cost almost nothing and its much better for your ladies. Good luck and dont water to much!

Let the FFOF do its job. It will have plenty of nutes for your baby girls for now. I would not add the FF Grow Big for quite some time.

They have a nice green color to them and lots of leaves.:tiphat:

Thinking ahead, Are you planning to bloom them in that case? I ask b/c in a short amount of time SPACE is going to be an issue, unless you have some other bigger set up for them to bloom in.

Best of success,

Hmm, When you go 12/12 they could stretch approximately 2/3rd's to 1/3rd their size.

Depending on how fast they grow. you may want to consider switching to 12/12 in one to three weeks.

Furthermore, is that case light tight? You do not want any light getting in there during the dark cycle of 12/12. Light leaks can or will cause your girls to hermie.

im working on lightproofing now, i cut the pots up and tied down the plants i think i can harvest in this pc :) tomorrow im going to add 2 more 60 watt bulbs to bring me at a total of 240 watts hopefully my not so great exhaust fan can keep the temps at 83 during the day until i can order this fan http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/deaf12recgrh.html i think that could blow through a carbon scrubber but if not i have a jar of ona, can anyone give me any info if that fan will be good enough to push through a CS?

That's going to get crowded in there. I have a few micro grows and you went way to big on the container. I used 16-20oz beer cups and no veg time 12/12 from seed. I get plants that are 8"-16"
 
Yeilds depend on tons of diffrent things,strain, nutes,light sources etc... In your situation a scrog sound perfect! you could fill that area up full of awesomness. Ive done grows in beer cups tons of times but was under the 1000 hps and id average maybe a half zip of so, but that was doing single spears? w/ a scrog and a few nice tops each im sure a zip per cup would be possible. Really depends on the strains!

if u need to share the harvest I would have done a few larger plants. 5 3 footers would keep you all happy for many months

I would put two computer cases together and then make one nice plant use a screen and use CFLs.

But honestly you aren't working with much space.
