Nice effort. I see real wide node spacing on most plants. Are you having heat issues that are forcing you to keep the lights too far away?

Actually no, the temps are great. I just accidentally veged too long(30 days) and then I got kinda lazy about adjusting the light cause one of the plants was growing about an inch a day.

I didn't keep the light close enough in the beginning I guess.

I thought about starting over for that exact reason, but I decided to just tie all the plants down. hahaha

Check it out..

I will never veg that long again. :p
 
i dont think the 30 day veg did all that wide spacing. dont get me wrong they still look great and they will bud fine but space still might be an issue. you should have started lst training sometime before flowering and try making them wider. the lack of work on your part by adjusting the light is what left you will tall - stringy plants. i wish i could tell you they are done stretching but i see that hawiian being all sativa and will probably continue to stretch, no idea about the big bud but you definatly have your work cut out for you now.

good luck and hope you finish to enjoy!!

So that's too far, right? I guess it wasn't really being lazy, I just didn't know any better... :eek:

Would it be worth it to start over? I'm kinda thinking yea..

That's exactly what I thought too. But right now, these pictures do nothing for you guys. These plants are HORIZONTAL. Once they start growing up towards the lights I think they will end up to be beautiful plants(just tied em down today LOL!).


Here was my outdoor LST.
This was white russian.


These were outdoors and I had to move them in for the winter(my last grow).

looking nice. i wouldn start over, id just use it as a learning experience which im sure you have. for sativas, you can shortyen the veg and do some early lst. you will still get a nice yeild in my opinion just keep them tied down. also dont bury that big bud cuz im guessing it will finish before your hawaiin. just a thought. nice russian, -bluebuds

just got an HPS bulb for the cool tube, took some pics before lights went on(day 31 flower/30 veg)

the sativas will probably end up 11-12 weeks but the big bud is still coming along nicely. I'll give her 65-70 days.

i snapped the main stem on the big bud but she's still doing very well, i repaired with 2 tooth picks and took all the weight off it. she's recovering very well. ;)

I killed the ISS on purpose just because I need the room as you can tell in this picture.

Can you believe there's only 2 plants here?

hahaha
