Hey I'm totally new to this forum thing but I think I'm doing this correctly. Just looking for tips or advice based on how my plants look now.....
I started from bagseed on may 10th and switched lighting schedule to 12 and 12 on july 15th.This was pictures from August 1st. Today they have way more pistils and are beginning to show trichromes. I'll post more pics when they are awake

Any reason why you defoliated her so much? She looks a bit naked to me, but totally agree with the other guys here, she's crying out for more light.

This is for sure a ‘first grow’. Just keep it alive and next time you will get double as you get more experience. You should consider fertilization. But do so lightly, since your lights are not the most powerful, the nutes you pour in won’t get used as much so it could be easyer to overfeed. What are your temperatures like in the tent?

For your 7watt lights you could move them quite close to the plant.

Ok will do but if I can go out and get something to maybe help a little more and you have suggestions I'll be happy to try.

Nah, that's fair enough. I remember my 1st Grow and I'm pretty sure I tried far too many techniques after taking too much advice, im surprised she made it through to the end, lol. I realised I needed to grow a plant out a few times with no special techniques just to see and understand how they grow naturally. I think as a new grower we jump in head first and try to do everything we've learnt and bern told, but after nearly 10years of growing I can honestly tell you that in most cases with marijuana cultivation that less is more, in fact the only thing I say More to is More Light, lol. Good luck, im in interested to see how your ladies turn out. Cheers

Thanks bro I appreciate the kind words I know they are hard to look at to you veterans. I won't be offended at all and I'll take all the advice given now that I set this up for help. Just wish I would have came here sooner. I'll definitely keep posting pics. I am wondering now if I keep adding lights to them if it will cause them to stress. Keep sending your knowledge this way please

Well, you have a grow tent. So the next step is buying a light that matches the size of the tent. As far as nutrients go, what kind of dirt are they growing in? For how small the plants are, they are in a lot of dirt- they may not need any additional nutrients.
