Here I have 10 Nirvana Bubblelicious plants at 18 days started from seed)that im vegging in 3.5 inch net pots with hydroton. top feed drip system, dutch master advanced nutes. feeding 3 times a day, ph is around 5.5 to 6.0 and four 48 inch long 40 watt t12's, 6,500k and 3,050 lumens each = 160watts, and 12,200 lumens. I just want to know if they are about the right size for 18 days I just think they're alittle small? Any help would be really appreciated.

Here they are at 3 1/2 weeks old some of them aren't doing so well and I also switched one of my drip systems into a bubble system. I had started out this grow with 3 t12 fluorescents, but I now have a 400w MH.

Heres what i would do to lst the bagseed. bend it over to the side thats less restraining. hook it. then gently start wrapping it around toward the easiest side. cut off that dead stuff also. just the very dead stuff.

I just finished topping 5 out of 10 of my BB plants! I hope that they start to bush out a lot.

If you topped them correctly the two smaller shoots will become the top shoots and grow basically douple tops. Topping your plants mainly forces new bottom growth. Shorter, thicker, more bud lol.

Okay, I cut the new growth in the middle on top right at the base of it.

Cool, how long do you want to veg for, cause after topping you should give it about a week to recover maybe less.

Depends just how big you want them. They should easily double or triple their size when you switch to flower.

Do they really double or triple in size during flowering? Is it to hold all those precious buds lo. Well I'm going to post some pics of my work so you can see if I did it right.

The durban's look healthy as far as i can tell. As for the LST, I would tie it some where in the middle of that plant like bring the rope around and back to the spot to tie. tie it straight back, then move up the plant a lil bit get another rope and bring the top of the plant around toward the front of the planter.the rope should be somewhat parrallel to the front of your planter.
