First Plants with Pics

I started growing these plants from seeds to nor about 3 months now without any help or reading, untill now. They have been growing in this tank i set up for them since they were about 15 days old. I have a floresint strip light and a heat light and they seem to do very well with those. I water them with rain water about every 3-4 days depending on how dry they are. These arent the only plants i had, i did have males so i threw them out and the 2 smallest of these 3 plants have white hairs but the tallest of the 3 has nothing....no white has or sacks but smellls verrrrry good. Im trying to get a better picture of them but for now i have these from my DS. Are they doing well or have i failed....i need some tips please.

DS?How old are you?

ok well ur doin pretty good man. u def need some more lighting there they are way stretched. buy some cfls in the 6500 k spectrum for like 2 bucks at walmart for veg and 2700k for flowering.

i know plenty of adults that use a ds FYI fried

Im 19 and a gamer not just a smoker but i forgot to mention that i have my lights on 12/12 i guess you would say.

Ok so i have no idea what those are or look like...haha. You go a pic or something?

you should top them, cut them

where do i cut them?

How far into flower are they, if they are more than 2 weeks in i wouldnt bother, she wont grow any more.
They are streched too, use nutes to help her along..
Get more light on those babies, 2700k for flower & 6400k for veg , but a 2:1 mix or 2700k and 6400k would be better.
Rain water? I thought, i'm not sure though thats too acidic* for them?
try just distilled water with bloom nutes, 1/4 mix.

when is she due for her next water?

Flowering is when the hairs start or? If so about 2-3 weeks and ill probably water in 2 days.

ok, dont chop now because she wont grow anymore.

All she will want to do now is bud, your plants need all the help they can get.
more 2700k cfl's, bloom nutes , and distilled water. also get a fan blowing at them to thicken up the stems, only a slight breeze though.

How tall is she?

you need more light when you flower the cfl lights are the spiral light bulbs get about 4 of those and you should be good also maybe think about transplanting the smaller pots the plants will appreciate it

What are bloom nutes? The smallest one with the most hairs is like a foot and some change and the other with lesser hairs is about 1 and a half feet. Should i just start over?

When your plants are just starting out and your lights should be on 18/6 or 24/0. This is your vegetative stage, and you should be feeding your plants with "grow" nutrients to stimulate fast growth.

When your plants get big and you switch to 12/12 light cycle, This is when you switch to "Bloom" nutrients to stimulate flowering in the plant. (Buy these at a hydro store! DO NOT use anything like MiracleGrow, it will burn the plants ). Also in your 6th week of flowering you can add "bloom builder" to your nutes. This will fill out the space where the seeds would normally be in the bud, making it more dense

Feeding my plants twice a week works well for me. i usually do Wednesdays and Sundays.


hope this helps
