  2. Your plant looks fine to me - good job. Pics under natural light will show the true beauty of your plant. Good luck and welcome to GC. :)

  3. Cheers bro. I'll send a pic tomorrow in day light.
     
  4. not at all, the structure looks good, u will have that space filled up in a month,
    indoors u want short because lights only penetrate 12-24 inches of the canopy,

    'white light' pics would help a lot.!

    keep up the good work.!!!
     
  5. Thanks mate. I'll get a daylight pic tomorrow. Was hard to do as it's in my loft ha. Do I need to clip the bigger leaves or just leave it alone?
     
  6. leave them on, the plant needs the leaves and they do not 'shade' as much as we think,
    plants use the filtered light coming through the leaves,

    look into ways of spreading it out here in a week or 2, fill the tent with her then flip to 12/12.!!
    if she stays short little to no trimming will be needed,
    if it gets tall u might wanna lollipop her some and have a canopy 16-18" tall.

  8. Yeah, she looks real good!! Go to YT, loads of pro growers on there with lots of how to's. I've spent a few weeks watching this & that. Just started my 1st journal today myself.

    Good luck with her
     
  9. Cheers mate. Will keep posting. Good luck too dude
     
  10. I'll keep an eye out for you.

    Good Luck!

  13. Cheers dude. One more thing. I have 3x 300w LED in there but only just started running the 2nd one. Is this too much for one plant that size or do I need to use all 3 or maybe just 1??
     
  14. what is the actual watts used on each of them.?
     
  15. 132w actual power draw is what it says. It's a mars hydro 300w
     
  16. one Mars 300 at 132w should veg a 2' x 2' area easily, and flower an 18'' x 20" area,
    use one for now and if she out grows that light turn on another then,
    use at least 2 of them in flower.!! (2 might be plenty)
