These Are My Oldest & Largest Seedlings
After Nearly 30 Days I Expected Way More Growth.
But Based On My Light (4ft 40W Shop Light) I Cannot Complain. 
These Are Newer Seedlings From July 19th-23rd.
I've Been Using Two Super Sprouter Dome Kits & These Seedlings Look Like They Will Surpass My Older Plants.
How Long Does It Take To Grow MarijuanaBased On My Growth Thus Far I Would Say 5 Months Until Harvest.
I Don't Think My Roots Are Even Close To Out Growing Their Cups Yet.
I Have Not Added Any Nutrients Which Would Definitely Increase The Size Of My Plants. But I'm Not Sure How Much They Can Take At This State. I Do Not Want To Burn Them Out. BLOOMSPECT 600W
Random Knowledge  I Saw A Guy On Youtube Using This Light With 2 Fire OG Plants From Seed & The Yield Was About 28+ Grams. Depending On What You Want, Thats Not Bad For The Price.

Flushing is when you stop feeding the plants nutrients and simply give them water, forcing the plant to use the nutrients stored within itself in the final week or so.
If its nutrient reserves are not used or broken down, they will affect the quality of your harvest’s smoke and flavor. Once the buds have reached full maturation, it’s time to harvest.Cut & Hang Your Plants

When the set(s) of true leaves of the seedling have spread out to cover the circumference of the cup, it will be time to transplant to a larger pot.
Also, vertical growth will be an indicator on when to transplant.

How To Grow Marijuana
When Growing Marijuana, I've Found That There Are 4 Key Aspects
Water, Light, Food, & Pest Control
WaterpH is a measure of how acidic or alkaline something is. The pH scale ranges from 1–14, with a pH of 7 being neutral (the pH of pure water).Cannabis plants are only able to take up nutrients within a small pH window, which ranges from about 6–7 when growing in soil.I Use The BRITA Filtration System To Water My Plants. |

Marijuana Growth Stages
If Growing From Clones, Skip To Vegetative Stage
Stage One: Seed
|
Germinate Marijuana Seeds By Wrapping Them In A Damp Paper Towel & Storing In Dark Area. Place In Zip Lock Bag To Lock In Moisture.
|
Stage Two: Seedling
|
Plant Your Seedling In A Medium Such As Soil.
|
Stage 3: Vegetative
|
If Growing From Clones You Are Starting In A Very Early Vegetative Stage
Clones should receive light 24 hours a day for two weeks, or until the roots are developed. |

INTRODUCE FOOD
During Early Stages Of Vegetative Growth
Stem & Leaf Development Are Super Important For A Strong Healthy Plant.
During The Vegetative Stage It's Ideal To Use A Nutrient Solution
|
|
Stage Four: Flowering
During Flowering An Ideal Nutrient Mix Is High Phosphorus & Low Nitrogen

FloraNova Bloom
Designed specifically for fruiting or flowering stages of growth, promotes vibrant color and higher yields.
Pre-Harvest Flush
Flushing is when you stop feeding the plants nutrients and simply give them water.

Stage Five: Harvest
Once the buds have reached full maturation, it’s time to harvest.
Dry and Cure Your Cannabis
Cut & Hang Your Plants
You may fully manicure your flowers before drying, or wait until after.
|
|
Once you determine that your cannabis buds are mostly dry,
it’s time to cure them.
Manicure your buds and separate them from the branches
Place the trimmed buds into an airtight container, Pack them loosely and fill the container all the way to the top without compacting or crushing the buds. |
|
During the first week, open the containers several times per day and let the flowers “breathe” for a few minutes.
|
Proper Cannabis Curing Increases PotencyAfter 2 to 3 weeks in containers, your cannabis will be cured enough to provide a quality experience, but 4 to 8 weeks of cure time will improve it even more. |
Pest Control

Spider Mites & Caterpillars Were My Biggest Pest Issues & I Found Its Best To Treat Your Plants Before You Even See Pests To Keep Them At Bay
Since When?
I Had My Share Of Secret Weed Plants Growing In My Room Like Many Other Young People Did During Their Years Of Adolescence. But June 9th 2017 Is When I Began Growing On A Serious Level.
My 1st Serious Grow Was Outdoor From Clone.
Three Grows Later I Have Decided To Challenge Myself With An Indoor Grow From Seed.

My Current Grow: 06/28/19
Strain: Fire OG
Currently I have 12 plants in styrofoam cups with holes poked in the bottom for drainage.

Step One: Germinate Seeds
To Germinate My Seeds I Folded Them Into A Damp Paper towel & Placed It Into A Zip Locked Bag In A Dark Area For 5 days.
Doesn't Take That Long
The seeds did not need to germinate as long as they did. They're seeds were shed and their roots were breaking through the paper towel. But made them very easy to plant.
|
|
Step Two: Plant In Soil
Too Soon For Mykos
I planted the seedlings in Miracle-Gro Garden Soil.
In that I'm not used to growing from seed I added a little Mykos Xtreme when I planted the seeds and I believe that caused the seedlings to burn out. 
|
|
Step Three: WATER
I Water The Seedlings Everyday.
Initially I Sprayed Them A Couple Times With A Squirt Bottle To Moisten The Dirt. Now As Soon As They Sprout I Pour Enough Water To Drain Out Of The Cup.

After One - Three Days Of Germination The Seed Produces A Tap Root. You Can Plant A Seedling With A Tap Root Only A Couple Centimeters Long. I Planted This Seedling About One Inch Down & Lightly Covered It With Soil. Then Placed A Zip Lock Bag Over It To Lock In Moisture/ Create A Humid Environment.
I Zip lock the sides to lock in more moisture. |

I Remove The Ziplock Bag Once The Seedling Breaks The Soil
|
|
|
|
I Planted 4 More Seedlings In Zip Lock Bags
|
|

|
|
I Removed The Bags From 3/4 Seedlings & Will Wait A Couple More Hours To Remove The 4th Bag.

Quick Germination Method
I Put 5 Seeds In Filtered Water For
|
|
Next I Folded The 5 Seeds In A Damp Paper Towel & Stored Them In A Dark Area
After Another 48-72 Hours The Seeds Should Have Tap Roots & Be Ready To Plant Into Soil.

|
I Will Plant The Germinated Seeds In Cup Of Soil Then Put Them In

I Hope You've Enjoyed My Journey So Far, Please Check Back Next Week For An Update.
