i have just bought 5 fem lemon skunk and have read that they stretch a lot what height does anybody recommend i go in to flower with this strain!!!!!!!!!!! i have a 1m L x 1m W x 2m H tent

I would veg till they show sex mate, about 6 weeks. You should be fine with 2 meters height. If not you could just tie them down

EasyS

cheers lads i was thinking of doing five of another strain aswell but would want one that grows similar any suggestions welcome

The Lemon skunk was my last grow and trust me chances are none of them will be the same i grew 4 seeds 2 more indica pheno one took 8 wk another 9 and 2 Sativa pheno, the nicest one of them all took about 11 wks and i chopped the other also at 11 but it definately need a couple of weeks more. As Bambam says 4-5 wk veg definately no longer then that in thet height, the more sativa pheno will triple in height easy when you switch to 12/12 i'd say. The smoke off all my plants are so different but all lovely, The one chopped at week 11 is my favourite perfectly ripe it has such a strong spicy taste/ smell. I will definately be growing this strain again one day but think i would have to grow a mother and take cuttings because they vary so much in height .

HI

I vegged 4 weeks till 2ft and flowered, they ended up about 5ft tall or so but you can always tie them down anyway if you want ( i didnt )

There not a massive stretcher

I would disagree that they are not big stretcher's they got about 30cm taller than my NorthernLight#5 Haze Mist with the same veg time, maybe you got lucky rufus and got the more indica pheno. How many did you grow? How long did they take to flower?

my lemons did'nt even double in size. Out of the 5 only one of them is a different pheno. Good luck mate.

cheers everyone

just goes to show you that those cheapy ghs seeds are not stable at all by the way did any of them taste lemony

I do 20 a time, mostly about 5ft tall, some 5.5ft tall but with my veg times that was to be expected.

The lemon skunk is a citral pheno, selected by greenhouse. Citral isnt a great stretcher and is likened to WhiteWidow.

Ive grown it out a dozen times ( there s 3 distinct phenos, 1 being very close to the original citral clone - select this one!!! )

EG

Veg 1ft, Finist 3ft ( VEG HEIGHT IS PLANT HEIGHT FROM SOIL TO TOP OF PLANT)

Veg 2ft, Finist 5 - 5.5ft

Veg 3ft - Finish 6 Ft monsters!!!!

The Best oz to size is to flower them at 1ft in 11ltr pots, generally gives 2.5 oz per plant and can do 8 per 600 w light. Soil Gown. Flower times - Harvest day 50 onwards depending on pheno!

PS


2 Meter Tents Perfect Mate, Youll get some good results!!!!

Just flower at about 1ft, you should have 5 nodes by then so this will give a good yield. I top them at node 3 to produce stockier plants.

Dont worry, if they get a bit big you can always tie them down a little
