With my first grow just about under my belt (just about 7 weeks flowering)and 3 more bag seeds stacking nodes maybe i can loose the Newbie status and move on to a novice gardener... any thoughts?that is if i don't screw up these 2 sexy ladies in the next couple of weeks.:weed:

Don't start counting chickens before the eggs hatch.Everything looks good! What are we looking at? One strain?Two?
Not sure on the strains as they were both from a container of bag seed i have been saving over the years,both have the same characteristics but just slightly different odors one hint of spice and other fruitier.

They look damned good so far. Smell like diesel or cheese at all?
I am not a seasoned connoisseur as it comes down to strains i have just bought street bags all my life and have just gotten into quality weed as a friend is a medical patient and has offered up some amazing smoke. if i was going to hazard a guess it would be Green Crack ...i know they smell delicious and cant wait till they are ready to pack a bowl with.

I think newbie label comes off after your third grow cause then we know beginners luck is out of the way lol lol jk.......they look nice good job ....like hotrod says don't count your chicks before they hatch you've done well on the growing part so far but now you have the dry cure coming up wich is a whole new phase my friend and unfortunately another way to lose your crop even for experienced growers so remember put just as much effort into harvesting drying curing as you did growing cause it's a very crucial step and the difference between good and awesome smoke IMO .....start studying harvesting drying curing and familiarize with the most important task to a successful season IMO good luck my friend

I have read numerous posts and heard from friends who have grown and i think i have decided to drown these 2 as per Riddleme's post "the truth about flushing"hopefully i have all my ducks in a row and i am able to obtain that great cure without out any issues.

Just watch your drying process and for your first time curing don't put them into jars super wet and once it's in your glass jars watch it close and you'll do fine ......flushing is a highly sensitive subject on here lol I do flush myself always have since I tried it years back bit anyways study your dry/cure trust me that's important

i have to admit i am nervous about the curing part and plan on watching them like a hawk, hygrometer & jars ready just need some bud to put into said jars.hopefully i dont have a brain fart with all the info overload and royally screw up this process.

Flushing soil needs a side bye side test...do not label the stash and tell us if you and your buddy's can pick the bud that taste best?
For sure when a plant wants to grow flower it is asking for the last 2 weeks...feed me bitch,

Ya the curing isn't to hard bud just pay attention don't overwhelm yourself and you'll be fine .....no worried just get as much info on the technique your guna use and you will do fine .......hell most people who are in it for a buck and don't really care about quality dry it and that's it ....the only cure it gets is whatever it's sold in lol jk
