Exclamation my little window experiment... please help???
hi everyone, i bought some weed about a year ago and recovered about 30+ seeds, i remember it being blueberry and very stonertastic... anyway i took about 6 seeds from my bag and put them into a tin with some tissue soaked in water (around 7th april'ish just over a month ago) not believing anything would happen, i checked back after a couple or few days and they where nice lengths of brown/yellow about 1.5 inch in size so i planted them, 1 in good soil, 1 in soil from the garden. and the rest got thrown into the yard. (just to see what happens)
within a day or two the dirty brown/yellow stalk was becoming a plant, the yellow top bit now 2 green leaves and the dirty like brown stalk now white/green, after a week on the window ledge they where looking awesome with a set of 1 & 3 fingered leafs and a set of 5's on the way, i decided to set off somemore.

the next lot got left in the dark tin a little too long, about a week and when i was ready to plant them they where about 3-4inch in size and a little moldy, lol, so i picked 4 good ones and planted them in good soil, the others got planted in the yard (the previous lot i had thrown couldnt be seen lol) and a week further on, with 2 plants that first seen light 3 weeks ago and 4 that saw light a week ago i decided they where looking well and it was time to replant them from the bottom of cut off cola bottles to some 32x24cm plant pots with multi purpose morrisons 30% peat free compost and some miracle grow organic choice pellet things you mix with the soil.
i planted the best 3 and the one that i had previously planted in soil from the garden. now its a few weeks on and i have 4 healthy looking plants,

1. the first and best being the one that got planted in good soil from first batch, its now 23cm high and 43 cm wide (leaf tip to leaf tip) with 7 sets of leaves.
2. secondly we have the other that was planted in soil from the garden at the same time as last.. ok lol.. this one is 6cm high and 10 cm wide lol but looking lovely and green and hairy. when i replanted it i removed as much of the shit soil as possible. it has 3 n half sets of leaves
3. the third, now being about a month old from the second batch is 30cm tall and 25cm wide, having 5 sets of leaves
4. and the fourth is 22cm tall and 20cm wide with 5 sets of leafs.

each plant has more leaves growing from top, the first one actually looks to have female piscles things at the top, or it could just be new leaf fingers that are growing a white'ish colour, but its hard to tell.
all the plants have been grown in a window facing south.

the third and fourth plant sound from what ive wrote, to be bigger because of the amount of time they where seeded for but i dont feel that this is the sole reason, i lined them up on the window ledge, left to right 3, 4, 2, 1 (as numbered above) then about a week ago re- arranged them to 4, 3, 1, 2. the sun rises to the left and sets to the right so the light hits the plants on the right first, i think that plants 3 & 4 grew so much to try and catch that morning light.

i think im going to re-arrange them again to 2, 3, 1, 4 and see if plant 2 grows any taller although i do feel it was restricted for rooting with the soil from the garden.. which leads me to a question..
ive read on here that by giving a plant more darkness its roots will grow and create a stronger better plant.. is this true? also it hasnt got any bigger since i replanted it, could this be due to the plant pot being too big at an early stage?

plant 1 is looking well my plan now is to keep it on the window ledge for maybe another month or so then set it off budding (is this called vegging?) under a.. i think its a 600w Hid lamp.. and hope plants 3 & 4 will join it a couple of weeks later.. as for plant 2 im not sure whether to try and put it under a lamp on 18/6 to see if it gives it a boost, but saying that then i might as well put them all under it..

this is the second time ive done window plants, the last time i did one it turned out to be male and when i tried smoking its pollen it set off my hay fever lol so yup im just a noob any help, advise or comments will be greatly appreciated.

also i have a blind between the plants and the window with the spines at a slight angle so people cant look up and see plants but the sun can smile on em all day.. also the window is slightly open.. the thing that worries me is, there in my computer room where i smoke cigs and weed, could this be a problem? the plants get fed 250ml of tap water each, every 2 days, is this right?

the pics attached are all of plant 1, one of them took at a week old the others last night, about 5 weeks
ill try to get more pics of the other plants...

as i mentioned i am a noob any help, advise or comments will be greatly appreciated, but bare in mind im just treating it as an experiment a big yield would be cool but im just intreaged to see how they grow lol

Regards
