How are my plants doing? first time grower

Much Props to you and your first grow. I'm glad you saved those plants. The rest look good. Good luck, man.

Well that's cool I mean growing weed is growing weed. Don't do bag seed again though- I mean not until you've grown the realness and got bored of that or something and want to find something random and exotic just for the intrigue.
Just knowing the grow habits and what to expect is a big help. The seeds really don't cost much. For me right now it costs me 90 dollars Australian for 7 grams- but for 5 Barney's Seed Farm LSD feminized seeds its 55 bucks plus shipping (so with a few other orders all my seeds are 15 bucks each or less- plus freebies from the seller) so that doesn't cost much per plant for an amazing strain.

Thanks for the tip man. I probably will order some feminized seeds next time.

Thanks everyone for all the help. I don't really know what I am doing, I'm just trying to figure it out as I along. RIU has ben very helpful. Have another male That leaves me with three possible females and I started with thirteen lol

Yeah it seems the only efficient and not random way to use regular un-fem seeds is to grow a bunch- take cuttings, then have some mothers to use from then on. You just need to do the cuttings before flowering of course, label them, then throw out the ones that turned out to be male. The first grow would be another random chance one again but you should be able to keep the mother(s) alive for quite a while. Sustaining a mother just big enough for cuttings once every quarter year or what not is way easier then the actual grow to harvest. You could use a 150w HID to go strong- but to save power you could just use CFL or even LED to keep it alive.

Sucks about the three plants bit but you've gained lots of experience

Okay man thanks
