Thanks :)

Im planning on getting another "room" for my future mother plant. I got a pc with fans and everything but not sure if it would be enough space.
Can I get like 8 clones from a small motherplant in a pc? I dont think so?
Can build something with wood aswell, got a good driller :jump:
Just need a fan with ventilationtube. I gave away one for a couple months ago, damn...

Awsome! Do you mean that I should do LST on the motherplant so I use up all the space in the pc ?

Google 'windows picture resizer' it's easy.

Tips? Ditch the clear plastic pots, roots do not like light on them. Trade in those led's for a 400w hps.

Good luck and welcome to the addiction!

Yeah man id cut that plastic off while its laying on its side and always use a pot without anything that keeps the plant from sliding right out. I believe there should be no stress re potting and i never have any, but some people will disagree, thats fine. Iv worked with to many Bonsai trees to stress out a weed plant while re potting.

Cut it out and put it in anything but something like that clear container. And make sure drainage is good by just making sure there are holes in the bottom. I always wait till the plant is dry, this way the roots stand up better. I guess what im saying is the root ball will stay together so that when you transfer it to the new pot, which already has soil in it, will not stress the plant. But i would cut this clear container with the plant on its side and be careful of its roots as of now there is no other choice. And get it in a different pot or its just going to be much harder as the roots grow longer as they will drill to the bottom and work them selves up. So get that done asap and if you need to use a clear pot at least cover the outside, because as the person i quoted is right on about roots not liking light. But rock your LED's, i use them too and you can get great grows. Look into a scrog for a very nice yield.

I will be back, i really like the NL, its some of my favorite so will enjoy watching. Also you can save your pic's in an album and copy and paste the BB Code after opening the pic and you will get this size of pic. Looks like this, but i took out first bracket to show what it will look like or two big pic's would be on your thread. This was my set up before harvesting. You can grow into the lights like you see the PokerFace take off into the one in front.

Thanks man :) I maybe even make another grow room. Not sure yet. I have time for comming up with an idea because the NL is still tiny.

Thanks man. But my computer is kinda fucked up so I cant use programs and stuff properly I have to format it first. But now its posted here so I might look it up when I have fixed the computer.
And about the clear plastic pots, I just wanted to see the roots because its so cool that way :p But I wont be doing that in the future.
I like leds better and I've seen good results here on icmag so I will stick to them.
Its really an addiction as you say, I meditate everyday to detach from everything and I can say that im pretty attached to growing. Its so fun! I love this!

Hey I was thinking about this thread at lunch and snapped a pic real quick. Here are some plants I'm still deciding if I want to keep. They are not getting the attention they should heh. I took it to show how much you could get though. These plants were cut back about two weeks ago I believe (like I said, I should be paying more attention to them).

Well roots will be up taking all the water and food you will be giving her so yeah the roots support the plant. I would take the dome off your NL seeding, looks big enough to start catching light. I would maybe put some soil in the cup, cover the bottom of the cup with duct tape and once its filled with roots, re pot.

Im the begining phase so I have alot to learn. Im reading The Cannabis Grow Bible by Gregg Gren atm. :)

I have that book too, great pic's, but to be honest you will learn more in one day on this site then reading the book. Its all real here, all mistakes are shown and steps are taken to fix issues, but skipped in the book. Here its like real life watching grow logs progress with issues coming up and fixed, or the other way, no bad grows in that book. Dont get me wrong the books are fun to read and there are methods to learn in them, but once you try one method you read about you can not ask the book for advise. Here you live each and every grow you watch and learn their methods and as problems come up you get to learn how to fix the issue. Not to mention all the questions and answers you get to see in grow logs here will sink in much better. Books are fun, but learning is all here bro:)

Nice plant, what strain is it?

The one into the light is called PokerFace, which is best med weed iv ever had, loaded with CBN that takes my pain away yet doesnt stone me outta my wits. But i also like my NL#5, i took it a bit early so an up buzz yet lets me sleep well after a few hours. Some day i will cross them when i get the chance. In the back is PH X WW, 3 tokes and im dead asleep:jump:


Plants look great bro,
