My first grow I used MG soil and didnt add anythin but some MG plant food near the end I did ok but it was my first grow and even though I got some to put in my pouch coulda probly did alot better and I do now ;)

I be askin yual these questions caus it be real hard to tell ya anythin without more info pilgrem.

Yu be askin how long into flower till harvest? Depends on strain and climate

Yu be askin bout changin lights and I be no master when it comes to this area as I ussualy let mother nature provide this outdoors all I be tellin ya here is more light the better! if yual got the ability to beef up yur lumens it cant hurt realy. be makin sure yual have good air flow and ventilation caus ussualy more light be meanin more heat and lookin at yur set up bos be easy to turn that puppy into yur state of the art EASY BAKE OVEN and yual be cookin yur plants so be carefull. As for any nutes best start out small and work up to things and watch what yur plants do with everythin yu do. Since yual be a new grower I can tell yu its best when I be thinkin back my first time to try things on yur own read up info here and do yur best with trial and error its how we all learn from our mistakes as well as learn from our achievements be a learnin experience journy yu be on now pilgrem nothin but up from here!

Good Luck

cool....appreciate it

how long do i flower before its time to harvest..climate is 75- 78 degrees
intake and outtake fans..3 ft by 2 1/2 grow box 5 plants mg soil 4/100 6500k watt daylight bulbs cfls..pics above..plants only about 7inches with big leaves
mid grade seeds...plan on switching to warm light 2500 k lumens for flowering..is this correct??????:cool:
i have red skunk seeds but want to see how first grow goes!??

when you harvest depends on the strain that you grow. if you go to a seedbank you can see what i mean. each seed type is listed with a flowering period, ex. 4-6 weeks, 7-11 weeks. but from the sounds of it you are growing seeds from a bag that you bought and you not growing something bought from a seed bank. am I correct?? IMO if this is the case, your going to have to let your plant tell when it needs to be harvested. someone else may know more than me though.

thanks...i guess we,ll wait and see..ill keep ya guys posted with any other questions and photos..:thumbsup:
can anyone answer my question above about the lighting situation??
swittching to warm light 2500k lumens for fowering..

(someone I know is going through same thing) What you want to do is take a microscope to your flowers, look at the trichs. You should be looking for Milky not glittery white tirchs. Once you have reached that phase, you then want to look for AMBER trichs. The desire for the type of (High/Medicine) you are looking for is a personal preference. 50% Milky/50% amber is a balanced head/body high. Think of it like this, More milky the more head..(uppity/energetic) The more amber, the more your stuck on your sofa ignoring your wife playing COD black ops! :thumbsup:

All in all, patience is a virtue...Longer the better...
Hope this helps

You have plenty of time.
Do some searches around here on your questions. There is tons of information to be had in these forums.
Asking back to back simple questions is going to discourage most of the experienced growers on here from helping you. They want to see that you are dedicated and have put in your own time and researched.
Also it gets very exhausting continually answering the same questions.

Here is a link to get you started. Cannabis FAQs / FAQ , Recipes, Medical Marijuana
Now go do some reading. Then come back here with questions to fine tune the techniques and new found knowledge. :hippy:
