lynamfamily4 · 06-28-2010, 09:26 AM

where my garden is located my plant only gets about 12 hours or so of light i used the lst method and man it is doing great it looks like there is 10 plants there not just 1!! but MY QUESTION IS : will it bud up since only gettting that much light to begin with? How can i induce flowering if that is already the light cycle? i mean it is still day light out but my garden is just shaded after 12 or 13?? HELP PLEASE!!!

They are getting more than 12 hrs (if you are in the northern hemisphere), just not in direct sunlight, that is fine although more direct sunlight would probably give a bigger yield.

Nature will induce flowering in it's own time if left to it's own devices.

your are the best you alwayz help out! so can i induce flowering i mean does it really work like that? i know i've asked something similar before but i ask alot of things way ahead of time and forget but not i'm at that point lol so could i do it by putting a container over it? and will it hurt it or get too hott under the container? or cause mold or mildew? or attract bugs to it?

**Pharm Girl** · 06-29-2010, 04:11 AM

container? like a huge garbage pail turned upside down? a friend did that and found that if the plant was small and not touching the sides of the pail....everything should work out.

tarping is another method...only u gotta tarp and untarp every 12 hrs for 50 days plus!

farmergiles · 06-29-2010, 05:02 AM

Or move them in and out of a (light tight) garden shed or something to give 12hrs darkness.

lynamfamily4 · 06-29-2010, 08:45 AM

they are in the dirt not in a pot. and yeah i was thinking like a plastic garbage can. put it on from 7 at night till 7 in the morning?

farmergiles · 06-29-2010, 09:55 AM

Yep as long as they get ~12 hrs of uninterrupted darkness at pretty much the same time every day.

lynamfamily4 · 06-29-2010, 10:06 AM

how long before it's done do you think?? i really want to let nature take its course but it's already getting tall and it doubles in size when it get's to flowering right? and i live in the city so i kinda have no choice

lynamfamily4 · 06-29-2010, 10:07 AM

Yes I'd expect it to get at least twice as high. You can tie it down if you like.

Say about 60 days on average. Maybe.

**Pharm Girl** · 06-30-2010, 07:22 AM

dunno about doubling in size....i'd be more tempted to say they stalk up.....leaves become scantier....~...the big garbage pail will work, just hope the outdoor conditions shine on you.

lynamfamily4 · 06-30-2010, 08:29 AM

ok hell yeah hey is it too late to dig up and put inside? it's pretty big been outside over a month

lynamfamily4 · 06-30-2010, 08:29 AM

i just ask because maybe if i dig it up and bring inside i can do 12/12 more easily i have a 400 watt hps??

lynamfamily4 · 06-30-2010, 11:32 AM

Hmmm I don't know if I recommend it, it might upset the plant.

That'll work.

stoneric · 06-30-2010, 01:33 PM

I'd let mother nature do her magic.

lynamfamily4 · 06-30-2010, 11:10 PM

i just can't have a huge plant in my back yard or i would let mother nature work her wonders but i might leave outside a bit longer see how big it gets if it gets taller then the tomatoe plants then it has to come inside altogether or clone by clone lol thank you guys and girls for your help
