First time growing

[phillipn06]

Hi everyone, I'm actually new to growing. I just found some seeds from my shwag sack. I germinated and planted them and they started growing, but I have some questions if any can help:

Does shwag bud?
If so, How long does it take for shwag until it can be harvested?

also, where can I get diff. strains of seeds that would ship to the US?

It would be much help if anyone can help me grow my first plant.
Thank you.

Bagseed will work just fine, I currently have a plant that is about to be harvested (another 2 weeks or so) that is from bag seed. I planted it early december, but I let it veg too long so that's why it's taken so long. I think that you would be able to harvest in 2 1/2 to 3 months with most strains.
But before any of us can help you, we'll need to know what kind of setup you're planning on. Inside or outside? Soil or hydro? What kind of light? How big is your grow space? What are they currently planted in? etc....
You can search this message board for plenty of infor on all of that, once you do let us know what you decided on and we can help you from there.

Thanks for replying shaman. I'm not sure what you mean when you say you let it veg too long, if you can explain it would be much appreciated and if its not too much trouble for a pic of your plant. I just took some pics of my set up, the plants, and the remaining room I have left. I was wondering if you could tell me a good setup because I want to have some more plants growing. I'm going to planting them indoors, soil, and the light im using is 13W SYLVANIA compact floresent light bulb. I know I'm going to have to get a bigger light if I want to grow more plants, but I dont have a good idea of setting up a growbox or just a grow area, if you have any advice.

You can veg as long as you like, normal is 2 months from seed though.
You're going to need atleast 50 watts per plant, and for flower I would kick it up to 100 watts per plant.
What's the color temp of the bulb you're using. It looks yellow in the pic. You want a 6500k bulb for veg (the blueish white light)
You need to seperate those 2 plants asap before the roots get tangled up.
Also, you can upload pics to the site so people don't have to open your links.

2 months is normal?

I think I'm starting to have second thoughts of planting in soil. I was wondering if you guys know any sites showing a step by step set up of a hydroponic system. I think it would be cheaper to build your own, instead of buying one and also do you guys know any sites that would sell you seeds and ship it to the USA.

Thanks you guys for the help.
