Hi everyone, I'm new to growing and looking for some fundamental advice. I'm on the second harvest of my first crops. Hard to describe what im doing, because I feel ass-backwards into this hobby (for lack of a better term). But it has now taken over my life (in a good way).
I have the follow strains growing under CFLs:
-Purple Alien OG
- Sour Diesel
- Super Sour Diesel
- Atomic Northern Lights
- True OG
- SFV OF Kush
- Double Dream

I have 3 cycles currently growing of each strain in different stages. So to be clear, my first round True OG has been harvested and the clone I took from it (cycle 2) is now in veg.

Same thing with Sour Diesel.

Atomic Northern Lights is now flowering with Purple Alien OG up next making the move from veg to flower.
I'm telling you all this so you have a little background on what I'm doing. My goal is to have a strain ready to harvest as I move a new veg plant to flower. I grow for personal use and do not care about the size of my yield as much as I do about the quality and purity of the bud. I know a lot of ppl who grow just for the big yields and to make money, that is not my goal.

Needless to say I need assistance. Everything I am doing is probably incorrect and ad-hoc based on youtube videos and the Grow Weed easy website. I would like to get some input on how I change my process to become a better farmer.
I would also like to put together a grow schedule spreadsheet to track all aspect of my grow, but some of the terminology used, I'm not familiar with. I attached one pic of my clone veg closest do give you an idea of what im working with. I also designed a very affordable grow box with items purchased from Home Depot, I will share latter.
I have wattage questions, electrically questions, watering cycle questions, etc. I look forward to hearing from people who have been doing this for years.

I posted a few pics so you can see what im working with and correct me..

The first pic is of my all my strains, grow under CFLs
Second pic got swapped with the third, I was trying to show you the before and after, from clone to veg. but I didnt upload the pics correctly. The second pic is my pride and joy right now. I topped it, and used twine to build a screen of green so each branch is the same height, I read you should never grow a plant like a Christmas but like a bush. The topped part of the aliean og became a clone for the 2nd cycle.
and the third pic is of the first pic clones in a veg state.

I did not top the larger plants. But I did defoliate which seemed not to work for me, my yield was like 18g (wet).

It's hard for me right now because I'm not really sure what questions to ask. But that will come in time im sure, and I will post questions as I think about them.

Thanks for taking the time to read this. Sorry that my ADHC makes my writing so hard to read. My mind works faster than my hands can type.
I look forward to hearing suggestions.
Like "bro you should never grow this many strains at once." or "hey, your plants are need this or that."
