Welcome friends.

Jungle - Yeah I know what you mean my first experience growing turned out to be a male and grew masssive but not very bushy,
Growing from clone is a lot easier than seed because you don't have to bother with germination and if you've got a female every clone will also be female (I've got more bagseed from unknown strain but don't want to risk a male being introduced to my plants), there are plenty of video's on you tube on how to take clones from your plant, it is pretty simple.

Stickybuds - The bending was forced on me ,when my plant started flowering it more than doubled in size.
The hash was great and lasted a long time considering I didn't get that much, but I'll make a bigger batch of hash this year as I wasted alot of material trying the dry sift method which didn't work that well for me.
Ahh. Your short of cash, you sound like my kind of man, keep it simple is my advice, nutes are not essential , I used stuff that I had already or got from relatives ,just use a product that has the right NPK levels for veg/flower (make sure you use good soil/compost though). There is a reason its called weed because it dosen't take much for this plant to flourish.

Busybee - Yo Busy ,love to see some pics include your huge g'house ,lucky boy it must look like the eden project in your garden,(I've got a g'house waiting for me but I have to dismantle and then put it together again can't be arsed at the moment), great to see your still growing and venturing into the great indoors.(I'd be stuffed doing an indoor my house is getting a full rewire next week 5-7 days of NIGHTMARE).

Good Growin All.
