Everything Old is New Again

  1. Hi herbs and herbettes, I've been lurking for a good 2 years and after much deliberation and gone through 4 weed men, I have decided I don't like the risky business of showing up to some dude's apartment in the worst part of town to pick up only to be eyed by four LEO's in SUV's with dawgs.
     
    I have decided to grow an herb for myself. I wish to smoke on weekends and love life with my stealthy grow box I made (I'm quite handy) and had questions about micro-grows in general and want a small harvest.
     
    I do mean small.
     
    Pictures are to follow, since I am not so tech savvy, but could use some help in the field of short, sweet sin semilla in the comfort of my own hotter than the holy mother of christ attic. I am manic writing this, and have the desire to calm myself down with the assurance of experienced growers, be they micro or mega.

  2. Looks good so far. Good luck with your grow.
     
    Welcome to Grasscity!
     
  3. I was thinking of FIMming this plant on it's 4th growth node, but not knowing the sex of the plant makes me think hard about how much stress/time I can put on the plant. Also, I've been watering with balanced ph. Should I use diluted urine for higher nitrogen levels to encourage growth or simply let it do its thing?

    Too stupid to add pictures.

  6. Another veg update. I think after seeing six new little nodes start up, I'll put this thing into flowering cycle in another week.

  7. Another veg update.
     
    Vegging for a good bit now, main stalk is pretty thick. I'd say about a quarter of an inch at the bottom where it meets the dirt. Three leafy nodes and second nodes have fully formed. Third ones are just now starting and I can barely see tiny little pistil-type things forming at the top two nodes, but I don't think I can sex it yet.
     
    I'm not sure how to keep inducing low-stress-type training. Anyone have any ideas or comments or suggestions? Fishing line, string, rubber bands? I have a bent bass guitar string holding down the main stalk into the dirt. It seemed to work okay.
     
    When should flowering start?! :D

  8. Another update!!!
     
    I know nobody cares. I may just throw this plant out and go find some bud from someone. I have put this thing in utter darkness for a great amount of time and have only barely seen nodes forming little sex-telling hairs. I still have no idea the gender of the plant. I count 12 nodes and the one at the thickest part of the root tells me nothing. The one at the third node, where I topped, tells me nothing. The two that have prong out after the topping are more telling, but I can see the difference between the leaves and the actual nodes. They look more developed, but again, I can't tell.
     
    If anyone can tell me how to induce flowering, I've just about gotten this thing as big as I want it (even though I know it'll grow more during flower) and I'd love some tips on the light cycle. 
     
    This plant spends approximately 20 hours in darkness and 8 hours in light, has been for a week and I can't tell if anything is changing. I've worked my way up to this cycle. The plant doesn't look stressed at all. It's thriving pretty well. I've never fed it anything but water and have only topped it one time and LST.
     
    If anyone can give me any opinions or insight, I'd love to have it!!!!!!!!

  9. Alright man. *clears throat*. #1. Put whatever you are using for light get it a whole lot closer to that lady. #2 stop playing with your light schedule 24\0,20\4,18\6 those are for vegging one your plant knows its continuously getting 12 hours of darkness or even eventually in vegging photo periods cannabis shows its sex traits you dont need your weed to be nocturnal to sex. #3 get a bigger pot because that's like 4" in diameter and 5" tall. And finally #4 his use yarn for LST just make breathable knots for the stalk so it doesn't constrict and you'll be good. Maybe read a few more journals before you play around with a plant and you could easily grow your measly 1\8th.
