Glad I could help, there is not enough help going around from educated people to the willing amateurs. imp:

Leave the sun leaves until you get to the first few weeks of flowering. Those are your motors for photosynthesis early on, the more SUN you can take in on the big sugar factories (sun leaves), the more light energy you can process, which mean more sugar will be made(food). Science class was awesome. :jointsmile: It is not "wrong" to pull them, but those monsters will process more carbon dioxide to oxygen than 10-20 smaller variants. So in MY book, leave them until the plant is working on flowers....even then pull them sparingly.

It looked like you made do out of what you had....super hippy, reduce, reuse, recycle. :hippy: It is not about the fancy things you buy, but about your effort and understanding. You will be cooking full speed going into season 2.

As for what to look for next, I would keep an eye for any that become male and rip them out instantly. Do not stop feeding the girls as they go, the leaves will tell you if they need more or have too much...but for now they look to be feed perfectly. Just don't get caught up in the complexities of all of this, some of the best herb in the world grows wild....you know why...because people can't screw it up. :thumbsup: So don't over do it, just water, water and water. Happy Grow!
