Getting excited for my buds, even more excited to grow some outdoors this spring. I am looking at all the plants and can't decide what to grow. Thinking is has to be from Nirvana seeds since my seeds did arrive even though it was not so covert, it got here. Still growing two more of these after this though.

Awesome. You are nearly halfway done with these plants if they finish like mine did. I'm currently growing 1 Nirvana Ice plant and 3 Nirvana Wonder Women plants under a 1000 watt hps (5 more weeks until I chop them). They are all champs except for one Wonder Woman that is real finicky and has burnt leaves. For my next grow I am currently vegging 1 Cali Connection Boss Hogg, 2 g13 Pineapple Express, and 1 TH Seeds Critical Hog.
I gave a friend of mine who smokes med quality everyday some of my Short Rider bud that has cured for a month and he got lit up for an hour and a half on a single gram and wants to buy some off me.
I haven't had problems getting my order from The Attitude Seedbank. I used the shirt option, plus I got a bunch of freebies with my order.

Wish I would have spent my money on a hps, bought a nice high output sunblaze t5 setup instead. Gonna change spectrum up this weekend, really hoping for an oz out of these two. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Buds are growing slow. Just put some seagull shit I was given as a freebie at the local hydro store in the soil and added a little more fox farm, hopefully that helps. It has been 1 month and 1 week.

I'm a noob to this and haven't smoked in months so it hasn't been easy. I hope I get some good buds from this or I will be forced to find a dealer which sucks cause I don't know anyone that is still selling.

I would imagine going to a NORML meetup would be a good place to start.

Hang in there, dude. Here is a photo of a nice short rider bud.
Edit: I used miracle gro once a week. I suggest chem fertilizers for the first grow once per week after the first two weeks of veg (use one small spoon per gallon for miracle gro) because growing organic is really hard for noobs. You really need to know how to read a plant if you want to go organic.

I got some miracle grow sticks that my wife uses for her vegetable plants. Buds seem to be growing a bit more, I will take a picture today. The fan leaves on the lower ends of the stalk seem to be dying or dead, is that normal?

Later today I guess I will go over to the hydrostore and see what they.

Thanks for the advice.

The main colas are coming along nicely. I would suggest that in the future, since you are not using hps, you bend over the plants so that the main cola is as close to the light source as the secondary ones. fluorescent lights do not have the same penetration that hps has and it is important to have much of the plant close to the light.
You can't really top autoflowers without losing yield due to them maturing so fast. So bending them over using a wire or a rope would probably be your best bet (low stress training). I'm currently growing some photoperiods and I used low stress training to make all of the colas even so I plan on having a really nice yield.
Good luck man! I hope you get a good amount of great smoke!

Thanks Midwest, I pondered lst, but this my first grow with purchased seeds and I didn't want to mess with them too much. Next Grow I shall do that.

How much longer do you think, I know the pictures are shit but shouldn't the pistils start decreasing/turning brownish near harvest? My plant on the right seems slower than the shorter one. I am gonna order a jewelers loupe, but judging by these pics how do you think I got?
