Ok, I get what you are saying. Good looking out.
Ok this is my harvest oohhhh ahhhh. Wet weight is about 4 oz. So i am onto drying. So my books have been confuseing me ,do i let it dry for 5 to 7 day then put in jars to cure for 2 to 3 weeks? thats what i got from it but my book makes it sound like you can do ether or so just checking.
here is one from the grow faq. it helped me with my questions on this subject.

Nice :thumbsup:
So this is what I have learned from my first grow.
1. Miracle grow is the BEST for a first timer. Everyone on this forum says MG sucks. It worked for me.What I am saying is dont go out and spend all your money buying one part this one part that. This is your first grow and you need to make sure that this is right for you. Then you can spend the money to improve your soil.
2. Dont take what you read on the forums and beleive them 100% Many people say they know what they are talking about but they dont. So make sure if somone tells you to do somthing look it up, read a book, just do the research.
3.Growing weed should be kept a secret.Dont go out telling your friends what you are doing. I was trying to keep it from my roommate but he found out when he came home early and my door was open and he saw the light. After that I told him he needed to keep it a secret he said sure. Now everyone that he is friends with knows. Its like he tells them so he can sound cool. So now that everone knows i have to slow down and take a break so everyone thinks I have stoped like it was a one time thing. I am getting married in 2 weeks and moving to my own crib where only me and the wife will know whats going on.
4.CFLs do work. Ok they work for the first time grower that is working in tight spots. But I would not recommend for long term. I mean if you buy 5 of the 42 watters that is 55.00 with tax. I bought a bathroom light fixture to put the lights on for 15.00 with tax. A extention cord to cut up was 10.00. So the total is 80.00. And the results were ok but i could of spent 50 bucks more and got a 150 watt hps, and make my grow twice the size.
Thats is some of what I have learned I think I started to ramble so i stoped. So word to your mother.:thumbsup:
And what very nice pics they are!Quote:

They aren't the pride of my photo album as i was trying to show the yellowing and sickness instead of a great photo. i've been thinking about putting together an album of my first grow beginning to end, there's some nice shots in there. i'll let you know if i do.

Awesome Job!
I especially like your assessment of information that you have come across via this forum and the net. I also like your end result. Even though I plan to let my plants GROW much more than you did, I am impressed with your results never-the-less.:thumbsup:
So it has been a while since I have posted. I have had one grow after this grow and It was even better. But now I am on to new seeds, trainwreck. I have not been able to find to much info on the growing process. So I am just going to post my grow here.I am using CFLs for the veg. I am growing in a rubbermaid box. I am using Fox Farm soil.
Picture 1 is just my plant at 3 weeks
Picture 2 is just my plant looking down in the rubbermaid.
well, welcome back bud!
you said something about getting married and moving to another crib 2 wks from one of the above posts?
seems like youre getting settled in nicely with quality seeds now.
im in to see what you get from those TW's in the rubbermaid.
best of luck with this one.
Well thank you kind sir. I hope to train this wreck.:thumbsup:
After doing some research I dont know if the rubbermaid is going to be big enough to hold the TW. I mean I could make it work but I dont want to change the phenotypes to change to a less potnet plant. I really like what JDSOIL is doing with his plant. He let is plant veg for 8 or 9 weeks, then he used the FIM technique. If I were to do it like his I would have to buld somthing bigger for my closet but no biggie. I have a new light since my last grow, it is the 150 hps light on ebay. I have not tryed it out yet but if i keep the rubbermaid I am going to have high temps and so on. I still not sure what I am going to do. I just have fun thinking about all my options available. Latter tonight I am going to post some pictures about how I think I can make the rubbermaid work out. Just to get some helpfull tips.
