This is my first grow the plants have been going for about 50 days although i only purchased a proper light after a while. im training the one on the right its a quite far behind the other one which is showing many pistils.

They are pretty far behind for 50 days! They do look healthy though.

A bigger light will help your cause for sure!

Good luck with them mate, keep us posted.

i epected it to be prety far behind although those photos are a bit old. im about to purchase another light its only a small bulb but it measures in at 2700k (600 or 900 lumens) what do you think? i dont really have enough for another cfl light. for the next grow i might get a another cfl but the 2600k version.

i recently bought a 11wt 2700k bulb just to mix up the spectrum ive also now managed to hang the lights above the plants to increase the spread of light ill get a photo up soon.

orange pistils before any bud?

hello everyone ive now got some more photos theres many biunch of pistils forming around the plant but there starting to turn orange and i dont no why :S

 

[newtimeG]

What are you feeding them?

im not feeding them anything apart from water i dont have enough money to buy any more nutes is there any cheap solutions i can use to help them?

 

[newtimeG]

ive been using decent soil. i can get my hands on some cheap orchid bloom mixture it looks like it could help but its for orchids (might have been for roses instead) my mate said that the light was to near so im currently moving the lights higher

 

[newtimeG]

this is my first time leaving the plabnts weve got a mate looking after them but the only light i can use is the 6400k 45wt on 20-4. i hope they will still produce with that on. they were defiantly flowering when i left them.

Orchid nutes will work fine. If you have access to Lowes, they sell the Better Gro Orchid Plus, which is good for vegetative growth, and the Better Gro Bloom Booster for flowering. They are pretty strong, so start off with 1/4 strength and slowly increase to 1/2 strength. Just make sure to only use plain water the last two weeks to flush out the nutes and improve the taste.
