.. so far i moved the smaller plant to its own pot, and i am def over watering. i just put that bitch under the facet and watered it . everyday. l guess im lucky that they didn't die. :wall: anywho, the growth has slowed alot since i moved them to the light, is that normal? two new leaves have grown sofar, both having 5 blades. i only have one light right now .. its 100 watts. but the space it is in in very small, and the plants are not used to much light, where i am we are still having snow, so in the window they got maybe 12hrs in 3 days if lucky. i have no money to spend, i have to do this the ghetto way for shure. i also live near many caves.. can i just collect guano? or does it need to be sterilized? if so i guess im baking it. :)

Is the light a CFL? You need to move your plants back under the light if you want a good crop. NEVER USE FAUCET WATER. The chemicals used to clean the water kills the plants the PH level is too high. If you have a hose or something outside or if you live around in apartments get an empty milk bottle. Wash it. Go down and get water from a hose Then stash it in a nice room temperature area and your good for the time being (Slow growth is caused by Faucet water me thinks.)

Two and a half months? Are you keeping the plant under the light? You do know to keep the light on around 18-20 hours right? Most plants under light will reach maturity in about 5-6 weeks give or take. Then 12 hours on and 12 hours off every day for the next two months and you should see significant budz. And you really arent going to know the sex of the plants until you start flowering stage which is the 12/12. Congrats on progress. :)

Keep going~! Your almost there xD

Piff it depends on the strain, the way its grown and the way its cured.

Kali, that looks like straight up overwatering and maybe some drying/nut burnage. Did you encase the plant/plants with aluminum foil?

I have noticed several small white mites fooling around within my soil. Does anyone know what exactly these may be? Are they harmful for my plant? And if so, how do I go about getting rid of them? Thanks.

Sincerely,
Spicolie!
