hell yeah man, hurricane winds from about the 3rd or 4th leaf set that wah i have monster stems, just wait their probably nor even half way done, but strong stems are important and always do my best to keep my plants short and stout and bushy.

And a little bit of an update here,
I now have 3 females, when i first started this grow i gave the runt of the 3 t a good friend who grew it outdoors with hardly anyknowledge of mj growing and the thing is emale and fucking pretty as hell, nice and thick but around a foot tall which i think i may just let her bloom straight up naturaly but im def. gonna re-pot it, so i got 2 dirt females flowring under HPS and im breakin the cab back out to veg some puprle kush seedlings i got from another dear friend who grows in exchange for a hood with 2 4foot floros, i figure ill veg them and clone them and when this harvest is over ill throw the big mothers in or the clones in, providing they are girls.

thanks alot man.
i only have one lst`d at the moment and its the main bitch in the grow room right now with the hydro a close second, i fiured the hydro would dominate the soil but not this time maybe my res. isnt mixed well. but i dont think it will yield much, i do elieve lst is a great way to increase yield you may already have goini figured off of the 3 females id like to get a qtr ounce dry at the least, ths is just a small sale grow to practice before i start the oh so expensive p.k. seeds.

how tall is the ones you lst'd and the one you didnt?

well the one i lst`d is about 4 inches tall at its tallest, the non lst`d girl in the hydro bucket is 9 inches tall, these two ive had the entire grow, the tallest one that was moved outside to a friends but is now back in my grow room is exactly 1 foot tall.

[doob3r]

well i bumped the hydro bucket plant up to full bloom nutes, shes looking awsome their looking good to me all around, if anyone has any advice or tips, or you can point out anythign wrong (other than small pots lol) please let me know.

Whats with the one really stretchy one? Haven't read the whole thread so if I missed it my bad.

The two on the right look so much better. Tiny little bushes, but cool nonetheless.

well when i first started i had 3 plants i gave one too a good friend and right about the time it was getting to cold he brought it back, it spent 95% of all veg time outdoors hidden in the tree top.

Hey doob3r - what was with that 36hr dark period and then 12/12 cycle? How long exactly did you have the plants going before the 36hr dark period? I'm thinking of doing the same to my plants next week perhaps.

i put them into 36 hours dark on 9/27/07.
i read that its supposed to jump start them into flowering a little faster, im not sure that was my first time ever doing the dark period, im sure some will say do it, some dont d it im not sure really, since its the only time i did it and i got 100% female`s i think im gonna stick with my routine from this grow from now on, i think ive got the hang of hydro once and for all.
im also reading up on 36 hours dark right before harvest, i doubt ill try that, but maybe ill keep you posted on my results, thanks for stopping by,
