So this is my first time growing a plant and im pretty rusty on the technique. Ive got a plant that ive been growing since the day after 420 its doing pretty good. but when should i change the lights over, right now its got a 150 watt indoor grow light that i got from rural king.

Ive got a journal, check it out and tell me what you think plz?



I'll let you in on a secret...its never to early. the rule of thumb is at about 12 inches they are tall enough and hopefully strong enough to hold significant weight of the flowers (buds) they will produce. You can wait longer for bigger yields or switch sooner as not to wait as long but lose some yield weight. The guideline that determines when to switch, it that generaly plants when switched to 12/12 will double to triple their height (depending on strain and genes), so determine somewhere about 1/3 to 1/2 the grow space height and plan accordingly... Hope this helps a bit....

then what burned up the other plant, it kept growing but it never got much bigger those pics were all taken at the same time both plants were the same age, and the leaves would get long and burn up at the ends. I just figured it was because it was at the base of the light where all the heat was coming from.



How are you watering your plant? using tap?

lookin good!:thumbup:...if you use tap water then just let it set out in an open container for a day or two to let most of the chlorine evaporate before you use it...

Its really the sunlight that does it. the opening is just so it evaporates up outta the water.
