1.ok well, what about lighting, right now its on a 10/14 im switching it today like at 9 tonight ill switch it on, and turn it off at 7? 2.is that good or should i put it on a 12/12? 3.Will it mess with my yield?

ok so for the first month i keep my plants on an 18/6 then after that i switch it to the 12/12?

Yes on the light shedule above and you should buy a timer. They are really cheap and you will need it.

You need to pick a light schedule and stick with it. Switching constantly is bad for the plants. If you just planted them ther is no way you should be using a 12/12 light/dark schedule. It is best to get a timer for growing instead of trying to turn the lights on and off manually at the same time everyday. The 12/12 schedule is only for flowering plants. You will need to grow the plants vegetivly on an 18/6 or 20/4 light/dark schedule first for at least about a month and a half to 2 months depending on the strain. Then you can flower your plants and wil have to wait another 4-6 weeks until flowering is complete. Once the flowering is done you will need to dry and cure your product which will take another 1-3 weeks. Then it is ready to smoke. The whole process should take 4-6 months depending on how big you want to grow the plants and what strain you are working with. You have alot of work and time to wait ahead of you, don't get ahead of yourself and stay on track. Your patience will be handsomly rewarded in the end.

I don't get this - turn to 12/12 after one month - i have plants which are ~10 inch, one month old - if i put them to 12/12 they start budding/stop growing no???

One more - anyone knows of good way to cure buds - hobout putting them in alochol letting them soak for a day or two then dry them... just came my mind.. dunno if it actually works // not hash //

the best way ive cured my buds that ive bought they were still so fresh anyways i threw them in front of an electric heater for about 30min, the other half i just through in a jar and set it up.

once you put them into flower mode, they don't stop growing. They double or sometimes triple in size!
