    So i have 1 plant that i have been veg n for almost 2 months. 300 watt mars hydro light along with a 40 watt daylight buld. My space is 2.5 x 3.5. I had 3 other plants but they showed they are male so i chucked them. I have supercropped my current female and fim the top a few wks ago. My nodes thru out the plant are very close and the plant is only 13 inches tall. My question is when do i flower this girl? I have room to grow and wouldnt mind holding off til i can get a 2 light for double the lumen for better buds. Do i have time to wait n how much? Will my crrent light produce good buds? Or should i add . Pics will come soon.

    more light = more buds, but the plant should grow fine under one. flower stretch will be anywhere from 1.5-2.5x the current height. give her a few more weeks if you have the space and get another light when you can afford it IMHO

    I flipped my plant at around a foot tall.. feel free to check out my journal to get an idea for sizes but a single mars hydro 300 can grow a single plant to harvest just fine...you can expect 2-4 ounces with the right veg time/conditions. I just harvested 78 grams off of one plant grown under a mars 300... I veg'd the second longer so it gets half its flowering life with two mars 300's and it has more budsites from the extra two+ weeks of veg and it's doing great im hoping for 100 at a minimum from her.

    Thats awesome to hear. I just growimg in organic soil and water every 2 days, using distilled water. Our tap water is terrible with heavy metals and ph is like 8 . Yucky tap water Im so excited. I was thinking of ordering some autoflowers. Anyone grow those before.

    if thats how the led stays set up its way too high it needs to be lower to the plant

    Yeah i measured , its 18 inches. So how close do i have to be? My understanding is 18 from the top, am i wrong?

    Lowered it to 9.5 inches and supercropped a few lower branches. My plan is to veg til it reaches 18 inches. Might be lil over a month b/c im supercropping to keep a even canopy. Still havent topped her yet. Opinions on topping would be appreciated . Should i top the main ? Or leave her alone?
