Right... this is the first time I've ever tried to do this, I have came into this blind stupidly but I love the herb and would love to grow it and know what Im smoking is treated and grown at home!

I'll upload pics and shit later, but basically ive got dwarf autoflowering AK 47 planted on the 3rd of this month so is nearly 3 weeks old and Mozar/mazar? which is nearly two weeks old.....
Im growing in a something i can only describe as a "fucking old wardrobe that needs to be thrown away soon"... I havent got the right equipment yet i.e correct lighting, as I dont know where to get it yet....

anyway, the ak is quite stretched and skinny with no extra branches yet but its about 3/4 inches tall now. The only thing is its only gotten two leaves? is that normal or have I fucked up here? haha

my mazar/mozar is short but skinny with only 4 leaves but the leaves look... slightly.... misformed?

since they are only 3 and 2 weeks old i am only feeding them water when the top of the soil looks extremely dry? is that okay???
but at 3-2 weeks old should they look like this??? slightly worried!!!!

if anyone can help id fucking appreciate it!

anyway im about to go smoke a doob... ill have a toke for all of u.
safe.

What soil are u using? What size pot? What type of lights? I'm guessing your cupboard is not going to be big enough if these plants do get going.. How much cash u got for more stuff? How far away is the light? If it's too far that will cause stretch.. Sounds like you're going to have to start from scratch with equipment you'll probably need to be spending quite a lot if you want these to turn out good.. They are still very young if 4-5 inches so you should still have a chance to get them going.. Where are you? In the UK there are grow shops with equipment or ebay is pretty safe too.. Let me know what equipment u have and I'll be able to tell u what else you'll need..

you have some problems if they are that small but without pics and detailed info it is hard to say.
Hey maybe you can help me out? I made a forum but nobody has replied.. I've put 5 critical kush beans in root riot cubes 4-5 inches away from a 125w cfl in my tent with an oscilating fan at the top of the tent. I have in and out fans turned off so I can keep humidity up easier with my humidifier get it to 90% then when i turn it off it stays high also have a device for reading co2 and i can get the co2 up to 1800 ppm just by breathing in the tent and it stays high as fans are off. Question is will it be fine to have fans off for a while? Do i need air exchange? When should I turn the fans on?

Are there any helpful people on here or just a bunch of smart asses??
No this thread has a different title.. I was hoping to get help with my thread which I just gave you the title for..
Are you denying that you are a thread jacker?

Here is the definition from Urban Dictionary


Thread Jacking
Taking over a thread on a message board by taking a part of the original posted topic, twisting it around and "hijacking" the thread itself. What happens is that the original content contained in the post becomes moot and whatever the "Thread Jacker" has manipulated the content to be becomes the new content thereby "hijacking" the original intent of post. People now respond to the "thread jacker's" input and the that becomes the focus of the tread.

Dude I tried helping this guy out but he hasn't replied to any of the posts in here!! I had already created my own post but nobody was helping as I had no replies. So I asked a guy on here to help me out.. When you put that picture up I thought you wanted me to give you my thread so u could help so I did. I didn't realise u was just being a smart ass! Who gives a shit if i asked one question on someone else's thread.. He obviously doesn't cos he hasn't been on here to check out any replies.

right.... ive read all this shit now haha my lights are approximately 3" away from the plant using warm white lamps... cant find the box now to find the type I know i need to get the correct lighting ASAP when I can find a good shop that sells them? (any recommendations would be sweet!).... the soil is..... "grow sure - fine grade seed and cutting compost"

I was advised to use that until ready to transplant by a friend who used it to grow his seedlings. So just went off his word to be honest on that one!

im using small plastic bowls whilst they are growing but i will post photos tonight of the plants, pots they will end up in too!

I work so ive got a steady cash flow to get the equipment as I need it? so hopefully it wont be a problem!

and yup im in the UK too bro!
