My First Grow Attempt

[rybuds]

okay so i brought mine in to put them under a light for at least tonite until i think of a better lighting situation. ive noticed little flying green bugs as you can see in the first picture on and around my plants. i was wondering if i should be worried about this?

also one of them only has one leaf and another looks like one of the leaves is being eaten

My First Grow Attempt Hello everyone im new to the msg boards and to growing plants period. i got some seeds from a friend and decided to try growin them. i germinated them first and i have planted 3 and so far they are all startin to grow. so far its been like 3-4 days since planting and all im doing is just watering them when the soil is dry. i was wondering when to start changing what i feed them and what to feed them. i keep them outside on my screen porch currently but i will probably bring 1 in under a light.

dont let them eat your precious thc!

put rat poison and salt in the soil, to keep them away

QUICKLY

(warning: dont actually do this)

Wtf why are you showing us the pest? Just kill it lol. That thing is probably what fucked with your plant.

[rybuds]

its not just one bug. its a bunch of them, and they fly so its not real easy to just kill em.

Get some bug spray then, something that can be used on plants!

[rybuds]

any suggestions?

crushed up cloves of garlic in water, should ward them off, if not, just use deoderant and a lighter to burn them if they fly... lol maybe a bit drastic....

[rybuds]

the garlic wont hurt the plant?

10days since planting and this is what they look like now..... one kind of looks retarded. the one in the clay pot came to its abrupt death when my girlfriends cat ate it but here they are now.... any suggestions on changing anything? if you can see a leaf on the non retarded one is kinda funny lookin maybe burnt? also how long before i can expect the stem to start gettin a little bit thicker? other than those questions do they look normal for 10 days of growth?
