I’m coming doI’m coming down to the end of growing Sour cheese, I’m reallyi’m really curious as to what the flowering days are not the weeks but the exact day? Most breeders have that info but i cant find it here. Thanks
Dave
i started a sour cheese from germination and it is 4 weeks into growth. i’m growing inside and i’m getting ready to top for second time. this is my first time growing, i’m also growing a white widow. both are about a little over a foot tall (was expecting more in tallness) can i put in natural light for more growth before flowering time? also when should i start cutting light time to 12 hrs. a day to promote flowering or does it start flowering on it’s own? i have no clue so i hope this wasn’t a stupid question.
Trey, no question is stupid; However, it does allow us to weigh your experience level. you really need to join our support forum, where we can teach and share practical information with you. We are not set up here to do Q and A and, your questions lead us to questions. What type light are you using? etc, etc… as far as why your plant is not growing taller? If you top a plant it is to make it bushier, not taller. Plant will stretch in flower and gain height. Please join us at ilgmforum.com for a better Q and A experience.
