Look for a micro setting on the camera, most have it. Pics closer then a couple feet away should be taken in micro. also taken at the highest setting. Then if you have ms picture manager you can crop the pic you want then resize it to 800x600 and save. From what I see she looks healthy.

Thanks cruze man.....comin from you thats a compliment.....you've put a smile on a very confused face.....confused why? I wanna try a Bloom Nute but keep gettin so much contradicting shit thrown at me my head is pickled. Bear in mind i'm not in the states so foxfarms ain'treally an option? I hold my hand up and admit to knowin less than bugger all about nutes but am intrigued and wanna give it a go.......got some real bad leaf burn from the cfls.....beginnin to panic a bit. I've stopped mistin the leaves as they don't really foliar feed do they? If you hear a crack thats my skull split down the middle......c'mon i dinna even know what 'flavour' i'm growing. Heeeeeeelp a man before his head implodes please? Anyone? *gets into feotal position and rocks gently* hahaAttachments

LOL you're not alone, everyone wants to boost these plants.
Heres the deal, these plants have been surviving for years in dirt with no nutrients added so as long as the new growth stays green the plant is healthy.
I say new growth because as the plant matures it will pull nutrients from the older leaves and they will turn yellow and die. This is natural.
Now with that being said lets see how we can fuck it up. LOL JK.
Any nutrients you add to your soil will be ok in moderation. Just go slow and give her a drink in between. Like try 1/4 of recommended amount, then water. Do that for a week. If she looks good and the tips dont burn try 1/2 amount alternating with plain water. So the idea is nutes, water, nutes, water until you are at full strength and burn the tips of the leaves. Then back off. Or do what I do and don't go over 1/2 strength.
Three 30 watt CFLs is fine to veg with till the plant is about a foot tall then I would add light or flower. This goes for all strains.

Again Cheers cruzer mate.......instructions on the advanced nutrients bottle confusing............not the strength but it seems to suggest i should be using all three of their nutrients together..........i never read the crapola on the product and it says i should be using all 3 of their products together,the grow the micro and the bloom......I only bought the bloom. Any ideas.....apart from the obvious which is get the visa card out again! haha As for the 30's i'd be startin to flower at less than a foot cause of the limited penetration of the cfl's. Finally got round to lookin at yr Green house......FUUUUCCCCK!! Do you work man or is maintaining all that a full time hobby? Tip of the cap for both yr grow set ups man i canna get my brain round a lot of the hydro side most of the time! Seems i can always rely on ya for an asnswer....ta v much again dude......defo not a dud
Haha thats the first thing i said to my missus after it arrived this morning!
Ha! No I'm not working and haven't for a couple years now. I sell home improvements but with the housing market the way it is people are not putting money into their house like they used to. Luckily I put a little aside, that and unemployment has kept me afloat. I got a real estate sales licence too and will probably get into sales or loans in the near future but for now I got plenty of time to mess with my grows.
Na, keep the visa in your pocket. Just use the bloom, you will be ok.
Sure the best of the best is to use all three I agree but it wont hurt to use just the bloom, you got the most important one.
My first grow with a friend we used a 3 part GH series in hydro. Man did we fuck that one up.
Tap water and way to many nutrients at the wrong amounts curled their toes LOL, We still got about 8 oz's though. Not all nutrients are a 3 part like that.

Again thanks man......there's still new growth in places and that cola surprised the hell out of me. Been askin the guy what weed it was he was smokin wen he got the seeds and he reckons it's durban poison.
As for harvesting when will i know it's ready? Do all the wee hairs turn brown ot does some of that happen during the drying? I really am clueless. What do you reckon about switchin to 11 on and 13 off does that help? I've seen various opinions expressed but i trusts ya cruzer. Help? Sorry to keep askin all these questions man.....

Have a look at the cola and tell me there's not at least a half decent yield for a first timer?
Half decent for sure man.
Looks to me like you are about half way there. Don't expect much more height but her buds will double in size.
The pistils (white hairs) when growing are white, when they die off and turn amber is a sign you are close but a lot of times there will be new growth so you will have white and amber pistils. The thing to watch is the trichomes, the tiny white looking stuff about the size of a pin head and looks like dust. Look closely and you can see its clear now, when those are all cloudy the plant is ripe, when they start turning amber is when they are degrading or rotting. People wait to see amber trichs to make sure what they dont see is at least cloudy. I'd give em a hard look 8 weeks, thats about average.
No, not bad at all for a first timer.
