Yeah thats what I've gathered through the wonderful threads on RIU.
Ever since I added the nutes on friday she has grown a little bit more and she loved the nutes I gave her.
I can't wait to put her into flower.

I'm not sure seeing as this is my very first grow. I would like to know the same thing though.
She is 3 weeks old today.

Here she is at 3 weeks and 1 day old. She is at least 6 in. tall now. Only 6 more in. to go before I flower her.
I hope my first try at growing will come to good fruition. I will start my baby with 1/2 strength nutes after this nute feed which will be 1/4 strength.
Also when I get the funds I'm gonna try and get a lowryder and grow it

I setup a box to veg in for now until I get my closet setup just right for flowering. Here are some pictures of it. The second picture the lights are closer than they appear.

thats awesome! I'm about a week ahead of you on my grow but not nearly as big, i wonder if i'm doing something wrong. haha!
though for the past week i had a spider mite invasion, they're gone now. i think they might've stunted its growth shortly. but i really don't know

in addition i've been reading up on some organic ferts. what little i've seen on molases is most folks use it only in flowering stage for about 2/3-3/4 through stopping the last 2-3 weeks before harvest. people say it makes your buds sweeter to smoke, i couldn't tell you if it does sweeten'em or not between all the bags i've bought

That sucks that you had a spidermite invasion man. Yeah I was just wondering when to use it . I just got my free sample of hydroplex. I guess it's suppose to increase my yeild. So for flowering I'm going to use the cutting edge solutions products and the hydroplex in my flowering stage.
Hey imlovinit24/7 you got a journal of your grow?

Well I had some crucial burn to a few of my leaves. So I had to cut the tips of the leaves off. She is still going strong though. I am feeding her every other day. I feed her 1/2 strength nutes today and so far so good.
I also bought a 30w CFL from kmart. It is in the 2700k.
So for lighting in the flowering stage I will have 1x 30w 2700k+ 3x 23w 2700k + 1x 26w 6500k.
There is only 4 more inches to go before I flower my tough girl.

str8dropkid I'm not sure yet but when I flower "she'll" tell me. I keep looking to see if I can see some signs of it being a female but no luck yet.
Sgt. sly I will check out the thread after I get done with this post. I've been wanting to do a pc grow but funds are low and I don't have a spare pc tower to use.

I'll take that into consideration for my next grow sgt. sly.
That is if I can find a thrift store with some pc towers in it but I will be on the lookout for em.

Doesn't have to be a PC case, could be a night stand, or whatever you wanna make.
