im new to growing myself - but all i know is that ur lights should be on for 18/6 - 12/12 is when u flower them. move your plants away from the light coz ur burning them, you really need a better light like a 250watt hps at least, or add afew cfl's hope this helpz

ok yea helps a little thanks also if my plants are gettin burnt would that not imply that my lights are strong enuf or would gettin the 250 watts one still be better and if im growing without any fertaliser will that effect my plant size or thc in n e way ???

Note . im not planning on growin to the plants full life span i was jus wondering will i be able to prune my plants at an early stage and still get a good smoke from them....plus when will i start to be able to smell it...if your wondering my seeds are top 44

thanks

Is the soil your using already full of nutes? Sometimes the soil from H.depot and such will be choked with nutes so try not to over feed because that causes burns also the humidity can affect the plants situation. If its to dry maybe spray it down with a light mist now and then, maybe keep a cup of water close to it for the moisture in the air. you wann go 16/8 or 18/6 for your veg time. 12/12 when you got a good height so it will flower. If you cut them early your stash will suck tho!
