a couple bagseed buds...

this is my frist grow
one plant is topped and one isn't





they smell something sweet and citrussy
they have maybe just over a week left to ripen... woo hoo

questions and comments are gladly welcome!!!

the bottom pic looks like a bud rocket.

Looks great. Where did you get your information and grow-know?

looks more like 2-3 weeks to me....

are you checking trichs?

fdd - i know, its pretty =]

rambler - lots and lots of reading... basically i've burried my nose in this site and every other piece of info (closet cultivating, ed rosenthal is my "on hand" reference for lots of things)... basically i've tried to learn as much as i can in the past four months (i'm a fairly intelligent person and i can generally pick things up fairly quick)... also theres all the experimenting i did during the grow... making mistakes has probably given me the most knowledge!!! asking questions and answering them myself through research (and asking others opinions, the more info the more i can make my own thoughts more clear)... i approached this whole thing like i do anything else i get obsessed with... but i know there are a million more things for me to learn and i can't wait to do so!

kp- yeah actually i agree... but the fact that i'm moving out of this apartment by the end of this month kinda is the real deciding factor... and yeah over the weekend i picked up the 10 dollar miniscope at radio shack.. mostly cloudy, a few clear still, a couple amber... gotta work with what we got, ya know?

dang those look really tasty, good job on the grow

I feel you jack, If your gonna do something do it right, put your nose to the grindstone. I've been a smoker since 8th grade but new at the growing. But give me a month or so an It'll all be in the brain! Gotta love this site

Nice to meet you. I appreciate the homework you have done. I approached this the same way and had a great first grow. Now I have a crop going outdoors and they are looking absolutely outstanding. I couldn't be happier with the results from the basic, logical, pointers and techniques learned from this site and other points of reference.

Do us all a favor and give back to the site. It makes us all better. Post updates and we'll stay in touch.

Later

will do... i'm kinda sad i didn't get into this site before i started growing... i started off with the pocket grow book i mentioned but that was it, and some friends sort of misguided info a lot! haha...

also i would have loved to have been able to do a grow journal of this, but well, too late for that... (my next grow of mandala seeds will be done as right as i can though, but that won't be for atleast antoher couple months)

thanks for your input guys!!!

Be sure and evaluate the advice from everybody. I have read some pretty crazy stuff here on the threads so be sure you know the source is cred.

oh don't worry, i'll take it all with a grain of salt

and it doens't take long to figure out whose full of shit and who actually is helping people (a big thanks to all of you who have given me reasonable advice, i respect you guys a lot)

most anything i learn from this site i'll research some more just to be certain anyways... seriously i'm such a nerd, i've stopped doing a lot of other things to learn about doing this...

lol ya me too! Just chillin wit the boyz (an ladies) on ROLL IT UP! But seriously I've been on the computer for a week straight now...i moved my babys up next to me an everything.

Looks great for your first grow. Be sure to give us an update of how its going.
