  1. I can assure you that she has my full attention
     
  2. As long as we can all share what we learn we will do better each time! Glad to have you along for the ride; hopefully she does well!
     
  3. Well, an update on the little lady. I gave a small foliar feeding of 1/2 strength nutes and b1 yesterday at lights out. I didn't check her till this morning and she seems much happier today. I will give a foliar feed tomorrow at lights out again as well as fill up the res in the bucket if it needs to be done too.

  4. Wow those are some tight nodes! She's looking much happier after those nutes
     
  5. I know! That's why I'm wondering if I should wait a bit to top her due to how bushy she is. Maybe let another two sets of leaves form then top/FIM her.
     
  6. Hey everyone!! So I gave another small foliar feed at lights out yesterday and I let her be. There is still some nutrient solution in the res this morning, so I will leave her be until tonight and go from there. The growth is continuing at a steady pace and so far things look good (to me anyway). So a few pics and until next time. And again, any tips or recommendations are always welcome!!

  7. Anyone have any thoughts on FIM or topping?
     
  8. So another update for those that are interested. I have a 1.5 litre feeding with a good amount of runoff today as the bucket was getting on the light side. Growth has been going at a steady pace and all seems to be going well (fingers crossed). A few pics and until next time. Cheers everyone!

  9. I'm bringing this quote from the man himself to the live part of this thread. True words that I plan to follow with my little lady.
     
  10. Checked on the little lady this morning and again new growth and still looking healthy. Always a good sign. The top of the plant developed enough that I decided to try my first FIM. So, a few pics of progress and the last shows the attempt at the FIM method.

  12. Day 26 - Hey everyone! Today is day 26 from seed sprout. I topped her (FIM attempt) yesterday. Today I gave a light foliar feed and from the feel of things she will get a feeding tomorrow. I am not too sure if I will give her a flush tomorrow or just continue with the nutes. A couple tips are showing signs of potential nute burn, but I'm not sure. Many input on that would help greatly in deciding my feeding tomorrow.

    Those who are following, let me know your thoughts.

  13. I would take it easy on the nutes for a couple dwys. But overall its lookin pretty nice
     
  14. Sounds good! And thanks!! I've been happy with how things are going so far, so hopefully it stays on track. I will give a straight ro water feeding tomorrow/flush and should keep things going smoothly.
     
  15. Any thoughts on this possibly being a nitrogen deficiency? The leaf stems are very red/purple but they have been that way since the beginning.
     
  16. Im subbed. This is a great example of researching before doing. Your going to make some killer bud!

    Ill lend a word of wisdom whenever I can! Your headed down the right track that's for sure.

    I highly recommended reading any stickies that might be relevant to you. I feel like you will benefit from them.They are deep pools of information, might have to sift through some shit though. Reading the sick, injured and dying plant thread helps you troubleshoot any future issues you might have. Learn from other peoples mistakes I guess lol. Also less nutes is better, first time you'll want to overfeed her but you must resist. Id suggest using less untill you have ran a full cycle. Then try a run at full power.

    Other then that, your plant is one happy ass weed. I really cant guide you if your doing everything right soo maybe fuck a few things up and we can chat more :)
     
  19. Haha good to hear!! I guess I'll just set back, and hit my bong and let her do her thing. I've read most of the stickies and plenty of books on growing so I may as well unwind for once. I will sift through the sick plant threads, as you are right, better their plant and learn from it"so it doesn't become mine.

    And I'm knocking on wood that I don't screw something up!! Smooth ride is better than a bumpy ride.
