New Grower Stitch's White Sirius first ever grow

[JohnnyC]

Yeah that is one concern I do have, now I'm using the spare room, the tent will look pretty dodgy not hidden, I do have a carbon scrubber and fan but no where to exhaust to so I'm just going to have to place the fan above the plant an exhaust it to another corner in the room, not ideal but I'm doing the best I can with the new setup, I do have an ozone generator also but will just have to see what the smell is like

Hey guys sorry for the inactivity, had to go through house inspection blah blah anyhow I've got a picture of the new grow room (bigger and better) and how my lil white Sirius is going, will be changing the floor setup into individual 3 gallon buckets and ignore all the chillies I have growing in there, prefer a little bit of cover so I'm practically at the 3 week mark and the 7th and 8th leaves are just starting to sprout, gave her a diluted feed on Sunday and she is loving it (hope it's a she, was 'feminised') I've got a few more additions with lamp shades and an extra cfl going in there, led will turn to side lighting soon will update with another grow room pic. But enjoy and any feedback will be much appreciated

Hey guys just another update, tidied my room up and got the setup that i wanted. Will post another pic of my plant when theirs a bit more change.

Peace

I'm thinking the plant may of got stunted but it is very healthy. This pic is of week 4 since the bean sprouted through the jiffy pellet, it is approximately 2" tall and yesterday was its third feed. I've included a close up picture of the stem pretty sure it's a she as I can see a couple of pistils. Let me know what you guys think.

Peace

Hey guys another update, nearly 6 weeks now since sprout and she is getting bushier and bushier. I have been LST'ing her in different directions but every time I bend her one way she just fills up with bush and had to bend her in different directions. Hoping that she starts getting taller soon so I can get better light penetration on her, any suggestions for this would be much appreciated. My light is sitting about 4" away from her and wondering wether to increase that distance or not. Her roots have exploded also and are filling up the container nicely. Again let me know what you guys think or any suggestions would be nice.

Peace

Oh and here's an example of the bushiness, this pic was from 6 days ago

Cheers Dab, haven't hit any problems as of yet, fingers crossed. Well the smell has arrived and is getting stronger each day, has a very nice lemon and pine scent and she just keeps filling out and is noticeably changing each day. Pretty sure she's just about to hit her pre-flower stretch and hoping to get some height on her. She is drinking heaps more than usual so I'm going to have to top her water up on my next feeding date.

I grew out a Santa auto from stitch that did the same thing, was staying squat! I ended up fimming Her and tied her down some and it seemed to open her up, very tight node spacing between buds doesn't allow for the greatest air flow so need to be extra careful observing for mold the closer they get to finishing.... Though my Santa looked all squat and small, just was just solid nugs, actually ended up with a decent yield of some good smoke.... Just seems like every now and than you'll run into these squat ladies.... I'd say raise the light a bit otherwise she's looking really healthy!

Thanks for the help Yoda, here's day 45. She's 16cm tall and this plant is meant to be a 60-120cm plant (didn't specify if that was indoor/outdoor) I'm just wondering wether or not to switch to 2700k cfl from my 5600k. She's grown an inch over the last week and her branches are really thick, I'm trying to push down the fan leaves so the light is getting to the what I think are the bud sites but it's just so small and stocky it's hard to do lol. Also should I start her on the veg nutes? I've been using AN grow micro bloom w/ rhino skin and bud candy at full strength wondering if I should start implementing big bud, I also have connosuier a+b but didn't know wether to use that with g.m.b. Any advice from you would be perfect or anyone

else for that matter

Peace
