Looking great for your first plants dude :)

May I suggest you try and tie them down a bit to give you some more room? Those tops look like they will come very close to the light mid flower and as they are tall the lower buds wont get much light. Just a suggestion though mate. Best of luck with Frankenstorm too hey, hope you stay safe!

Thanks a lot eastcoast. you are right about the bottom of the plant not getting light. I may keep doing lst or may get supplemental cfls or something. I definitely need to address that though. Thanks for the advice. Luckily, I made it through the storm without the electricity being shut off. I tied down the top of skywalker with a bungie cord. Its almost the 2nd week of flowering. I will try to make it 10 weeks and see how these girls are around new years updating around once a week with pictures and hopefully some video when flowers start forming. There are definitely some bud sites starting. I'm very excited. Kosher kush is stretching like crazy and is now taller than skywalker. dinafem and purple wreck are still my favorites. purple is the smallest. dinafem looks like they would be some quality beans to buy.

no worries man, happy to help where i can, just want to see people pull the best buds possible with what they have! Dont be afraid to really pull those plants over hey, they will bend pretty easily, just do it gradually so you dont snap them. Trust me, it will help a lot as it goes on ;)

good to hear you got through the storm too mate!!

^thats cool, guy bongsmilie i like the dinafem and the purple. the other two are whack. i dont like their genetics at all. I did not top or super crop or anything. they could have been a lot nicer, but this is my first grow. It has been a learning experience for me. I will become more advanced with time. I know what seeds i'm looking for and will make significant improvements on the next grow. haters can eat a dick.

Its week 3 of flowering, day 22 to be exact. Ive been using 2 different nutes (crystal burst and big bud) during weeks 2-4. there has been some nute burn and yellow leaves. ive been using less and less each day. i started out full strength and probably shouldn't have but ive been paying more attention to ph and they seem to be alright. here's some pics.

whats going on guys? its day 49 or week 7 of flowering. just wanted to update with some pics. what week do you usually flower? I know you're supposed to buy a scope to check the trichs, but I was wondering if its completely necessary? Is there any other ways of telling when the plant is ready to harvest? has anyone harvested early? I know its usually not advised.
