My First Grow

What's up everyone,
@iampalmetto here...

This is my 1st grow in progress (the others got ate by my cat, Batman).

So my last batch of bud happened to have a TON of seeds in it. I took one of them, germinated it (paper towel style), and planted it in a small pot that I stole from my Mom's crib (along with the soil) around the beginning of February. Keep in mind, I have no clue what I'm doing. Complete noob at this. ..

I've kept my baby out on the balcony to grow. Not knowing about light cycles, the grow stages, or potential pests, I let nature do its part by providing adequate light to my plant, especially since I don't have any type of setup or lights to use.

While in Veg stage, my plant was bombarded by Leaf miners that dug tunnels all through my first 3-4 sets of leaves! I did a some research and squished those little f**kers. Not only was my baby under attack by bugs, but Batman had managed to chew a few tips of leaves off behind my back... Once again up to no good! .

I live in Florida, so it's been 12/12 practically everyday since the seedling sprouted. As soon as March came, she started showing pre-flowers, and not even 6" tall. She may be super small, but she's flowering beautifully for my first grow! .

This is my first successful attempt to grow cannabis and I know a small plant may produce small yield, but I'm just proud of myself to have come this far. I've been doing ALOT of research and I'm still learning each day, so my next grow will be way more professional.

I've got two more seeds in germination, ready to go up next. And this time around, I'll know what to do! .

Here are some photos of where I'm at now... Let me know what you think! .

Idk how many weeks I'm in flowering... I think maybe 4. But today, I decided to prune her bottom two fan leaves off so that she can focus on her top buds.
