Thank you for the nice words. I am going to jump into a veg chat very soon as I am getting ready now. There is a great one going now that is from @Mikedin, not sure how to post the link but it is called.

Your plants in VEG! Veg plant photo, cloning discussion , share your pre flower prep!​


Jump on that one and you can learn a ton. Manipulating the plant or plants to grow the way you want it to grow is the key. Some do it early in the plants veg, some do it consistently through veg, and some do it late in veg. I say try a few different techniques and find out what works well for you and your space.

A few quick pieces of advice I can share is -

The quality of the seed is everything. The best grower in the world can’t get quality out of bad genetics. Good seeds are worth the money and they 9.5 out of 10 times grow exactly like the great seed geneticists say they will. Nice thing is they are truly not that expensive. For 10 bucks you can get a pretty good seed, 20 bucks and you get a gem.

2nd is the light quality, again the best grower can’t grow amazing smoke let alone a lot of it with an underpowered or bad quality light. Want larger yields then your tent needs proper amounts of light. Definitely should be the most expensive thing in your tent! I say that but some pros are running a closed circuit CO2 system which gets pricey. To much for me to get into as I do not grow with a CO2 system. I throw in the ole exhale bag and keep it moving for a solid 40-50 bucks

3rd is feeding properly, many nutrients out there to choose from. Just have to figure out what works for you. There are also charts out there for how much water whatever size pot you are using can truly hold in a single watering. Like I know that when I grow in 5 gallon smart pots that the most water they can hold is right at a half gallon. So I NEVER feed them more than that in a single watering and usually not much less than that when I do water. If they are smaller plants it just takes them more days to drink that water up before I water again. As they get larger I water them once a day but never more than a half gallon.

4th is humidity, this is a fickle deal hear if you ask me and this is what sets back most beginner growers. I have been lucky to not yet have to deal with mold or mildew but that is because I really pay attention to my humidity and matching it to temperatures correctly. You definitely don't have to be as serious as I take it but just know that a humidifier that can turn on and off automatically when you get to a percentage of humidity your happy with is a great buy. They sell them pretty cheap as well and are worth it for sure. Most issues I have ever seen in others tents is 90% of the time humidity driven. Now skipping back to tip 1 about seed quality. If you know you have a humidity issue in your area of the world and where you are growing, they make strains that are very resistant to molds. Just have to do some research and find the right strain for you.

Go follow that chat I mentioned and hopefully I will see your new grow on that one soon.

Thanks again for the pic and kind words.

Hell my guy, you definitely have your hands full. And you too grow some snazzy herbs. It’s never about the crop size with me, it’s about love for the craft. Everyone’s neck gets the same pain in it from trim life. I don’t care who you are 🤣🤣🤣 thank you for the kind words!
