Those are big! and so pretty. another week or so and you should start to see something if not sooner. these are really your firsts?

not sure what to say about how close together they are, the roots have got to be wrapped around each other. god! i cant get over how good they look! how tall are they

yup my first plants, so far so good. I know they are way to close together, should've seen it in there with my huge male, poor middle plant had no room. They are in their 2nd week of flowering. Next grow will be in seperate buckets. This grow is mainly to learn from and to correct my mistakes when I try out next grow
 
I haven't measured them lately but Id say between 1 1/2 ft to around 2ft..freaking monster of a male was 3ft tall .....I'll measure later after the 12hr dark, off to work all day on 4/20 :(

That was my thought with my first one, itll be just practice to see if i wanna do it,now its an addiction. Yours look WAY better though

thanks man I'm glad to hear you like them, being my first grow I actually thought they were crappy, well besides the monster male I had to kill, that plant was my prized possession, it wouldn't stop growing...figures it was a male. I learn fast and seriously read the crap outta that Jorques Medical marjiuana bible and only use fox farm nutes and fox farm ocean forest soil. Next grow is right after these finish and planning on doing up some kush or some crazy bud and adding more lights and finishing off with a HPS for flowering...I'm gonna be addicted too lol

Fox Farm, from what I have been told is mainly for beginners but the shit seems to be working well for you. I bought the more experienced, advanced stuff, it was cheaper but I must not be using it as well as you use the FF. Well, thats not really fair to me saying that I screwed up my nutes, that really wasnt the prob its these damn drainage issues I keep running into. I should be ready for a monster next time. Ive got a skunk seedling that I just transplanted but im not sure if it will even turn out male or female.

what kind of nutes are you using thats advanced? I was told by a friend that the best soil to use is "Canna Coco", he said if you use that soil you could use shit seeds and it would still come out like high times bud. What I do with my fox farm nutes is i mix it up (2tbsp to a gallon) and keep some in a gallon jug to water it (every other day or whenever it looks dry) and I spray my plants with a bottle sprayer 1 or twice a day with the nutes and you wouldn't believe the hairs popping up on these plants. What kind of drainage issues you having? if its not draining properly then you might be over watering, you doing soil or hydro?

Right now it is in the 12 hr dark mode, been doing 11-11 and keeping lights on at night to keep temp up in grow space. I'll take some close ups tonight in macro mode. Only thing is I started flowering because plants were getting so tall, I am not sure if it has pre flowers yet, do you guys have any pics of pre-flowers? I am def a fresh newbie on this but its def a fun thing to watch them grow, I don't have any mylar in my grow space, should I get some and line the walls, will this help to project the light and increase bud yield?
Here are some videos and pics of the white pistols that start to really show about 2 and 1/2 weeks to 3 or so in flowering.

if you took that picture, your camera is insane...i'll post a couple pics with my fuji fine pix, macro isnt the greatest but let me know what you think. 1 plant now seems to have white hairs showing the other 2 no, almost like a little green nub poppin out, im praying hairs come out because 1 of them is my biggest plant, the 1 with hairs is a smaller plant

Pic 2 is female so no worry there the bigger one may be a male since I have heard they grow up faster.

I vegged them for a while, about month and a half, the 1st plant was planted week and a half before the others. My biggest one showed something different tonight after its 12 hrs of dark I snapped some pics and let me know if its a male...my smallest plant is definitely is a female, hairs popping out all over. Sucks if this monster is a male

Fox farms because of how they make it has tendencies to have a chance to bring in bugs to your room. I was using FF and my ac went out for 2 days and room got to like 85-88 rediculously how.. I fixed the issue but 2-3 days later I started seing tons of bugs everywere from thripe's to root aphids and white flies. Because of some of the ingredients in FF bugs like to lay eggs in it and the eggs hatch when it gets hot like summer weather. After that happend once time I gave up on that in case it happend again. Now I agree with your friend I use a 50/50 cana cocoa coir and perlite mix ( the bigger coarse perlite ) Used a lot but plants like this mixture the best for what I am running. Here are a few clips of the room that i have now and some pics.

ya ive been noticing a bug here and there but very scarce, and when I find them I kill them immediately. I am about to order and add "Fox farm Big Bloom" to my Tiger bloom and hopefully get some bigger buds. I have no idea what kind of seeds I used but the smell coming from these plants when you rub the buds is like high quality bud. I just ordered a 420 scope to look closer at them, hairs are majority white but some seem to have changed to a orangish or redish tint, but there is no way these plants are close to done budding it hasnt even been a month of flowering yet. Any recommendations or tips to help out when flowering? Your plants look nice, can't wait to have a larger growing space

They dont look too bad but somewhere along the lines you stressed them, as shown in pics 4 and 5. Did you have a lighting time accident? Such as accidentally switching them to 12/12 for a day or 2 and then back to veg?

You wanna see what Ive got going now with my plant? Ill be sending you an e-mail here pretty soon ive been busy and getting kinda hooked on the "Pot Farm" game on Facebook. Its pretty fun.

I don't know a lot about growing yet..... I can however help you take better pics with a crappy camera. All you have to do is hold a magnifying glass in front of your lens. As long as the camera is auto focus (most cheap point and shoot cameras are) it will focus through the magnifying glass and get you some decent close up shots.
