Hi wonderful experts,

This is my first grow and i'm growing seeds from a "free" bag of seeds from Nirvana shop. They, there are 4, and they are looking good, but because this is my first grow im not sure when to stop giving my girls fertilizer. I read that when the trichomes are around 50% cloudy that is about the right time, but i cant see (or can't tell) if the trichomes are 50% cloudy. Is there any other way? The hairs on one are around 50% redish and not at all on the other 3 plants. I will try to get some pics up asap, but i have no camera so it is kind of hard to....

Also, i read that curing is a great use of a month? Is this true? I really want to try my bud, but i read that it is worth the time to cure.

by the way this how i was informed to cure:

1. dry
2. put in air tight container and put in the refridgerator for a month
3. after that put it in the freezer for a while, the longer the better

any advice is great. thanks.
