Yeah she is surprised on how much I have picked up and is fully backing me up on my decesion to grow. I was even talking about how I wanted to move to Colorado and become a licensed Caregiver. I feel that my state will come thru on legalizing medical cannabis and will just practice growing in my house and when the time is right, the time will be right.

So here it is....pics!

Day 20:

Please No HATERS......."find a post already on it"........I like the interaction with the RIU community.PEACE!!

keeps getting better and better !!!!
Thanks for them kind words. I have to restrain myself from checking on them 20 times a day LOL. I try to go in my grow room atleast twice a day to give them a good shower. I'll gonna have to water them tomorrow. I water them about every 3 or 4 days. I also will be feeding them FF: Grow Big and every other watering, unless you guys talk me into doing it more often LOL.

Some soils may soak up that water faster. Im using Fox Farms: Ocean Forest and it holds water pretty damn good.

I dont water them untill the top soil is pretty dry. Its easier to fix your plant from under waterin it, then it is to over water your plants.

When you dont give your plant enough water you can simply just give them a little bit more water.

But

If you overwater your plant and the soil just stays damp and swampish consistency. Not to mention that evil fungus can grow in conditions like that and just halt your root growth.

I feel like i'm taking a step up in the RIU community by trying to help you out I<3. I hope we can solve this delimia.

All this good knowledge is worth a packed bowl hit.

yeah, youre taking a pretty big step ! but my soil take water but doesnt seem to retain very well.... but ill try to stop watering it for a day or two... right now its been since yesterday night, so ill wait till tomorow night, see if soil is wet or not... and if there has been an increase of growth... but man your really helping out !!!! thanks... wish i cout rep u but i gotta spread love to others :(....
thanks a lot !!!!!!!!!!!

i guess we learn from mistakes... iv read somewhere that to be a master at something, you have to have failed in every possible way...so i guess im one step closer to being an expert !

Nice grow bro
I'll be watching as i am about ready to begin my first Floro/cfl grow. Going to use autos this first round so i can see my mistakes quicker and get on to my next grow with at least a little experience .
I am very interested in LSTing for better yields in smalller spaces.

Hey Machuca,
Welcome to the RIU community, I hope im one of the first to tell you that :)
I have became a Loyal fan of LST. I love the outcome of it, if done properly. I would suggest doing this to anybody.
I thought about doing Auto's but I really wanting to experience the whole vegging stage. Im gonna stay in the Vegging stage for as long as I can and my space allows it. Im also gonna pull some clones from her, hopefully in the next 2....3 weeks. Im in the process of making a bubbler cloner now. Im also wanting to hear some opinions of using co2 in a grow.

Just a reminder, just because the top layer of soil is dry doesnt mean that your entire container is dry. Your top layer could look dry, but a few inches down could still be damp or soggy.

I did not feel that I was being disrepected by you posting your pics of your beautiful ladies. Im sorry to hear that you had 3 males out of the 5 plants you had. Did you have 3 plants growing in one pot, thats bad-ass. I didnt know that could be done but it looks like your pulling it off. That being said I just wanna say that Im not able to make the thumb nail pic any bigger then what it is but it looks like you have several plants in one pot.
