Hello

I am trying to grow a marijuana.
I made a ton of mistakes, first and most interesting was that I germinated too many seeds. Saddest was the light damage. But mistakes are the best way to learn. I hope.
Here's how it's going so far.

I went into this with the intent of minimal intervention. I figured I'd top them and prune a little to get at the pots to water, and just watch. Probably my second mistake.

Nothing wrong with learning..

Looks good to me.

You must have got more females than you was expecting?

Most of it looks pretty healthy, and you learn from every grow. When leaf tips curl up its usually heat stressed.

I didn't expect them to be as bushy as they are, nor to stretch as far as they did. I had to cull a 5th plant (Wedding Cake) and turn it into cuttings.

Oh yes. Definitely heat and light stressed. Those little white balls at the top of the frame are Cree COBs that are practically touching the plant, needing to be rehung.

You can also see a spot on the second-to-last photo in the OP where the light alone bleached out the tip of a bud.

Since this post I've noticed a couple of nanners on the most heat-damaged bud (not the bleached one, interestingly), and it appears to have self-pollinated. Live and learn.

BTW, welcome to Roll It up, Budget Messiah!
