Are you saying I need to flush before I start flowering nutes? If so, I am going to really need someone to chime in and help me in that area, especially because of the miracle gro potting mix it is in.
i dont think u should flush with the preferted MG as the nutes are released by the water u put in. The more water u add the more nutes are released this is one pf the reasons people dont like to use MG. If it is MG organic u may be able to flush. I have seen ppl lose there plants from haveing a problem in the MG soil and they flish thinkin they r gonna be able to correct the problem n next thing they know its got worse and they end up losing there plants. If its not tue organic mg i would think about moving it to a diferent soil that doesnt uave a.long lasting time released nute in it. Good luck bro hope it goes well as i have also seen other ppl make a harvest useing the MG but they always get burning in flower stage and have smaller harvest amd less tasty bud cause.of the chems that the MG is made.up of. Its not realy smoker friendly. When i was a lil youmger i.tried useong it before i never got anything to make it all the way though there was always severe burning and stunting and either they died or i would get pissed and kill them and end there suffering. Mayne u will be one of the ones that can make it work as i never could but thats granted i was a teen trien it without the knowledge.i.have now and i.didnt have the AFN to back me up like u do.
 
So can I LST or what? If so, please help me with this process. Thanks in advance1
 
Yes u can still lst. Take and bend ur branches over.so that the light hits the smaller side branches and just tie them in that position with some hemp rope or plastic garden rubber coated wire. Its nuthin to worry about bro its kinda hard to mess up lstin a plant. Just make sure not to break nuthin when bending and make sure the ropes r tied loosly around the stem so that they r able to thicken without the rope chokein ur stems. I think there is a lst thread here on afn. Just tie them where u want them though its not problem. Good luck
 
Yes, you can still LST it but you'll have to do it slowly. Tie it off near the top and pull it over a bit until you feel resistance, then stop and tie it off. Then every day tighten it up a bit. If you try and pull it too much in the beginning you could break the stem. So a little bit every day.

I think part of the problem is that your lights were too high above the plants and they stretched while reaching for the light. New grow keep the lights closer to the plant and raise or lower them to keep your node spacing at about 1".
 
The lights have always been no more than 2-3 inches away from the plant for her entire life. They are cfls also. Looking into a nice T5 4 bulb set up, hopefully I will be able to get it soon.

So what do you all think of her? According to attitude, I should only have 23 days left. In you opinions, from how she looks right now, does that seem pretty accurate? Also, what do you think my approximate dry yield could be? Sorry for all the newbie questions, but gotta learn somehow :)

The temps haven't risen above 82 degrees F. When I checked her today, I knew I would be needing to water tomorrow. Last water she was fed 1/2 strength bloom nutes, and that was about 3 days ago and she responded very well. She took almost a full gallon (she is in a 3 gallon smart pot). Should I feed her every other watering? If so, can I bump it to full strength nutes with next feeding? Any idea of approximate yield? I can't seem to find any grow journals or anywhere with actual results from this strain. I am hoping for about 3 zips, but will be happy with 2. Maybe that is all just wishful thinking, but no harm in dreaming

I also plan on ordering this grow tent. What do you all think about it? How many autos could I fit it there and all of them get appropriate light?

No input from anyone? I need help when it comes to flushing. I used miracle grow potting mix as my medium and I am now using miracle grow bloom nutes.
