Stage3B: First Grow

[Stage3B]

Thanks to all for your advice! Boy did I learn a lot from you all. My plants were growing for 4 months before I knew how important lighting is; 12/12 etc. People said I would never get buds...
I replanted in bigger pots, foiled my grow space, used Kelp Blast along with a nice organic liquid fertilizer, rabbit poo, and a weekly dose of coffee grounds to maintain the proper PH.
I still use my cheap ass lights! 200 watt LED bulb with around 3000 lumens, and 2 other LED bulbs with around 1500 lumens; I know! Get some real lights!!
All in; seeds, bulbs, nutrients... around $200. Enjoy the pics! I still have a ways to go before cutting buds off according to the color of things...
Feedback please, especially from all the naysayers! Happy growing to all.

You sure showed all the naysayers!
Your growing better, but your lighting is letting you down...how long you been in flower?

I'm in the middle of week 5. I bought feminized auto flowering seeds; Dutch Treat, but a lot of people say my plants are "photos." Been told that some strains flower for more weeks. Your thoughts, advice...

 

[Lowrider72]

If your plants are Autos they should be on 18hours light minimum per day.
If you had to change to 12/12 to get them to flower, they ARE photoperiod plants.
Check your seed pack and make sure...

They just came in a ball point pen, with the Crop King Seeds website info. Going to switch my lighting, thanks a bud load!!!

 

[Lowrider72]

Hehe, no probs mate.
Gotta start somewhere....bloody naysayers....

 

[Stage3B]

Thanks again! Just switched my timer. In your opinion how many more weeks of flowering do you think I might have??

 

[Stage3B]

Much thanks to "pbass" for advice and encouragement!

Whoa those things look AWESOME!!! Great job @Stage3B it's so good to see your progress! Looks like they have a bit of cooking to do still but whew, what a success! Get a really close look at those buds with a magnifier of some sort and watch the trichombs developing. That will tell you all you need to know. What a hoot, thank's for the update! Cheers mate, looking forward to seeing more!
