i want to bud my flower that is now one week old untill 10march for personal reasons i want to know what is the best way to do it!some told me to turn lights on 12/12 others 8/16 from experienced people what is the best way?!and what proportion of P,N,K should i use?i must say i have 36watt grolux sylvania and 15watt cfl and i am going to add a 27cfl<1800lumens>!

THANX IN ADVANCE FOR HELPING ME!

Are you trying to bud a week old seedling, or a clone?

Or has it been budding a week (pre-flowers)?

How big is the plant?

Holler back!

12/12 will induce flowering. I have never heard of any other way to flower than 12/12.

During flowering, the plant needs something high in P. Use 10-15-10, or 15-30-15, something along those lines.

isome people reduce the hours from 12/12 to 15/9 in the last 4 weeks of flowering , but thats some people lol

no it has 7days it came out from soil not a clone it's small it has 6 leaves only and it is 8cm tall, i want to harvest it untill 10march!i whant suggestions on when i must start flowering it to harvest then and which way<including lights and fertilizers> from an experienced member to trust!so i should start 12/12 from now to have harvest in 10march 45days?

12/12 licht cycle. As for nutrients you need to keep them a little week until you are in full bud. If you get any.

ok so i start 12/12 from today and use fertilizers with more p,k in maybe 2 weeks!

no you cant switch it to flowering yet. you must keep it in vegetative state for about 4 weeks, then you can switch to 12/12. once in 12/12 it will remain this way for about 2 months. so the soonest you'll harvest will be around the end of April. as for the lights, MH(metal halide) is ideal for vegatating while HPS(high pressure sodium) is best for flowering. do you only have one plant? if so, remember chances of it being female are 50/50 so i'd suggest germinating some more seeds. good luck

no i have 3 plants!so i thnik i would do the following:
stay one more week in 24/0
then start fertilizing and turn the lights in 12/12 and i hope in 3 weeks i can harvest!to concluse i will try to fully flower a 15days old plant in 3 weeks!
i bought a ferti with N-P-K 4-6-7 its ok to start fertilizing in a week or i should start now?

when ever you start just make sure its weak to start.

Yes he can start 12/12. Not that I would but he has a time problem so it's either flower and try for a little or non at all I would guess.

You can even flower from day one if you must. Not sayig you will get much of a yield if any but you can do it.

nutrients, you don't want to burn it.

ok my fertilizer has n-p-k 4-6-7 and say that u mix 4ml with 1 litre water and water the plants twice a week if i water with 0.25 litre of this mix every 2days is it ok?i used to provide 0.25 litr of water every 2 days...

or u can stop bullshitten an buy a nickle bag from ur nearest dealer save urself the time an leave the growen to someone else other then yourself....ha ha ha 3 weeks flower... ha ha... 15 day old plant... u crack me up..

I agree with Zandor.........

Flower them NOW on 12/12 and hope for the best.........

Some bud,
Is better than,
None bud!!!

I don't think that you will yeild over 1/8 to 1/4 oz. of dried immature bud,

But the potency may surprise you........

Plus you may get to learn along the way..........

Enjoy your journey in green my friend!

crazy, but intresting

so i switched to 12/12 today and i think i must have a common bulb the dark hours for heating the enclosure because the temp is not above 20c what do u think is this necessary?a and how many gramms is an oz?

u got ant pics

iv about 2 week old seedlings id say theyl start veg in a week or 2 stil only two sets of leaves best off letting them veg for a month or 2 regardless of preflowers let the plant grow a bit then when its around 3 or 4 foot and a nice few leaves change photoperiod to 12/12 make sure there preflowering first you have to wait until that happens for the plant to flower

better off getting the book"marajuana horticultural indoor outdoor growers bible by jorge cervantes
