Hey bro !Hey man, I can see youre enthusiastic to grow sweet budheres my take ( Im also a newb on my first grow ).
Growing on a window will stretch your plants and will take a long long time to harvest, even in 12/12 from seed.
I got my main plant under a 25W CFL, now at 9 weeks old and has been flowering in 12/12 for almost 6 weeks now, and unfortunately I still got a long way to go, the bud is formed with many pistils and some crystals and smelling nice but it still has a lot more to grow and bulk up, I dont wanna chop it early and after drying it to get small buds, it would be frustrating after all the wait , know what I mean.
I also got a plant in 12/12 from seed and it flowered (developed pistils) at week 3, but its got to go i think 10 more weeks till its anywhere ready to chop, plus the main bud wont grow very big, I hope at least it will grow fat haha.
Also be careful with watering I can notice a bit of drooping in your pics which is a sign of to much water, let the soil dry out completely then water, to much water will delay the growth and can cause even more nasty issues like pests or root rot..
Any way I am curious to see how they grow and how long it takes
Happy growing buddy.
Yeah man if the setup your using seems to be working well and supplying enough light for your need thats all that matters in the endThing is though the best weed in the world is grown under natural sun light. I do not agree that you have to have lights in order for you to be able to successfully grow your plant. Cus this is my first attempt this is just a learning process for me hence I choose not to use lights on this occasion.. maybe if successful and on the next crop or season i may use lights then. My window has been very good for the plants where my room is does get a fantastic amount of light each day where its postioned in my property its very good! its actually t he best room in the whole house for warmth light and air! so really its ideal mate. i hear what your saying though. But so far so good, my plants have been doing exceptionally well! blue venom just keeps growing and growing shes getting tall! leafs are coming out nicely. Very green and healthy looking which indicates getting enough nutrients. I will post some more pics which were taken yesturday and today. Thank you both once again for your info and advice if you could keep me updated with your expoties and etc that would be great and much appreciated. with vegging could you have a look at the new pics i have tajken and just see what you think about it? like for instance when i should start feed the plant. I dont really no when and what size i should leave it to grow until doing this? thanks all !!
