Hey! :wave: I just saw that you had some questions about LST, and I wanted to point you to a few threads on the topic that were remarkably helpful for me.

You'll have to buy some. Don't use outdoor soil. You'll be inviting insects into the house.

Fox farms ocean forest is great soil. I just wouldnt start my plants off in it. Start them off in some cheap generic soil that doesnt have any nutrients added to it. Once the plant establishes a descent root system and is ready for transplant, transplant to preferably the final size bucket full of FFOF. Good luck dude. Peace

Edit: I wouldnt start them off in FFOF because the soil is 'hot', meaning very nutrient rich and tends to burn up finicky strains that dont like alot of nutes. If it doesnt kill them off it burns the heck out of them.

Both thanks for the information, i might go and find some cheap soil made for cannabis :)

I reckon you need to get more light below the canopy ... side lighting helps you get fatter buds ...You have 15wat globes which are ok but you can get 24wat phillips 2700k which would be better.Also try adding a couple 6400k cfl there so you have a red and blue mixed spectrum as the plants like a little blue when flowering as well.

good little grow there mate ... I have a 100w 6400k cfl vertical and 2x 24wat 2700k cfl in reflector that gets the sides

heres what I have going --->

Im using normal potting soil, and some normal nutes, nothing special..

I don't know how long they are in flower, but they are 40 days old.

I can put some more pic of today, they are flowering very fast! the buds are getting fat :)

Looking fantastic bro. I agree with dr greenthumb about wanting some blue light in there. The long stems could indicate too much red. If you look at a sunset notice how it's red like the warm whites? But go outside on a bright sunny day at midday and the sun is more like a Daylight 6500k. I knew there was a reason why they called it daylight! :) Good luck with your grow.
