1st Grow. Lets get it on!

full of health mate:joint:
Thats good to hear thanks mate, feels like I'm doing something right so far....

can u help me i need to no if i can use this old dresser 39in high 2 feet wide 15in deep and can i use it for veg state and flowering

How many plants you growing? You may struggle with height when in flower. Look into LST or something like that. I can't really offer advice as I'm very much a begginer

I've just read some of 'Uncle Ben's Topping Technique' thread and its seems like a good way to improve yield. As I have 4 plants I think I'm going to experiment with 1 in case I screw it up I still have 3.

From what I understand from his thread my plants are not ready to be topped yet. I'll see how confident I am when they are ready to be topped, I might bottle it yet.

Still going well... shame its still got a long way to go before I get to smoke it bongsmilie
The plants have just got out of 36 hours of darkness (couldn't be avoided!). They don't look too bad considering...

any opinions please?

Also should I consider putting into flower now, they've been in veg for 4 weeks?

Thanks mate, so it could be something as simple as my light is too close? I'll move it up a bit and see what happens...

I've either had too much smoke or starting every word with a capital letter has confused hell out of me lol. Had to read it 3 times!

I'm sure I haven't nute burnt them, I think I got the feed schedule and nute strength about right, a bit under if anything. Appreciate the advice, this is mainly a learning curve as its my first grow but I still want some good bud to smoke at the end of it all.

Fingers crossed its just the light too close.

hey man, definitely looks like they got too close if not touching your lights and burned some of the leaves pretty bad. since i work with cfls, i run into burning the tips of leaves pretty often as they grow a lot overnight. just trim away the damaged stuff and they will be fine. also, you had asked if you should put them into flowering. i personally give them around a month of veg time, but when you switch is really up to you. if you don't have a lot of grow space i would switch them soon if you haven't already since they are still gonna grow a lot during flowering. i apologize i didn't read all the way through, so i might be overlooking something.

You seem to have a good idea whats going on. I put them into flower a week ago. I've cut off the damaged leaves and heightened the light. Heres hoping......

Grow almost finished now....

I've made a lot of mistakes but at least I know now for my next grow and there will be plenty of bud on these to keep me going a while :joint:

Run out of room (height) so some of the leaves are burnt but for my first attempt I'm pretty pleased and can't wait to smoke it

Any tips for drying and curing would be massively apprciated.

Don't want to screw it up after coming this far...
