i brought these seeds back from eastern afghanistan. the mother was growing in gravel and the smoke was pretty good so i let her seed to bring some home

ill post a pic of the mother and some of my grow setup and progress so far as soon as i can

any tips or advice on this strain would be greatly helpfull as this is my first try at growing and im tryin to do so on a really tight budget so a 1000w hps is way outa reach for me at the moment

thanks in advance

they are growing in my closet with a 12in fan next to them and i try to keep fresh air in the room the closet is in with a bigger fan and opening a window often

im using 'Expert gardener'' potting mix and ''miracle grow'' indoor plant food spikes and watering with tap water till they drain a little every other day or so

ive tried to FIM one and top one of the others

ive pinched a couple of the others stems as well

is it too early to train or prune them?
are their nodes too stretched?
is a leaf or two wrinkling a bit a bad sign?
what is something i can do to make my grow better with respect to the fact that im pretty much broke?
