  5. Transplant NOW!!! Give it a good drink as soon as you do as well.
     
  6. transplanted my plant into much bigger pot now
    i deff think i waited too long. the entire cup was root, and i tried to break the soil off very loosely, but it was so tight, it didnt work quite as planned
    i think shes doing okay though, gave her lots of water
    hoping to see her bounce back soon! :p

    but who knows. i could get 2 males. <_<.

  11. You usually don't have to worry about the smell until it starts to flower.

    also, i was wondering. is my pot big enough for my plant? theres a little bit of root coming out of the hole in the bottom. but i only put this plant in the pot like, a week ago?
    its about... 4L big. im guessing. its 22 cm wide i belive, and about. 22 deep.

  13. During veg you only get a light "planty" smell which you can usually pass off as something else (i.e. musty air). However, once you get hot and heavy into flowering, if it's a girl, you are going to raise some serious stink. One plant can stink up a two story house in a matter of hours.

    If this is a stealth grow and you are going to have people at your place that can't know about the plant you should start putting together a solution now. I built a growbox (good ole' nails and plywood). I then put together a ventialtion setup and made a carbon activated filter for about $30. It has helped contain the smell really well, though I think it's time to change the filter. I am on my first grow, currently in flowering.

    I hope you have a girl!! For my first grow I only had one plant as well. It is going to be very stressful for you in those first two weeks of 12/12 waiting to find out if you wasted all of your time/money/electricity!

    Most of the stuff I mentioned I've documented in my Grow Journal (in my sig). Good luck with your grow dude :D
     
  14. yeah i was wondering wat to do about the smell.
    i was going to buy an air purifier, for my room to help with the plant smell, and the smell of me blazing.

    what kind of carbon filter did you use? and where can u buy one? did u just put it over the exhaust fans? lol sry. im not exactly sure how it would work
     
  15. mines only 2 weeks into veg its stinky as a motherfucker lol
     

  16. I custom built my carbin filter using Ryoko's Guide, which is excellent:
