Please help- first time grower

First Timer,
Welcome to RIU!
This is the sight I would recommend for you to be able to start out on:

It is set up as tutorials on about every topic.
When you run into a specific question, RIU's search engine is your best friend. If you have a question, there is a good chance that it has been asked and answered before. Then, when you are in a real bind, the old timers around here will know you have been doing your part, and will be more willing to give you a hand.
Very cool you decided to drop your bag seed in some soil. It will be killer to smoke something that you have grown yourself, no matter how it turns out.
Good luck finishing this one out, and good luck on the next one.
Cheers,
WillieP
Thanks WillieP, you guys have already been a ton of help. Can’t wait to finish this one and start the next!

By that schedule you're in week 4ish of flower. I definitely wouldn't recommend buying the Big Bloom unless you want to use it in your future runs and just finish off this plant with some. I would just use half strength tiger bloom which is 1 tsp to a gallon for the next two feedings then just a half tsp to a gallon until you harvest. As far as when to harvest you can either: magnify those sugary trichomes and look for mostly cloudy heads with some turning amber or go by the 8-10 weeks after first white hairs. There's basically time limits on everything or if you want to be a better grower you can learn a lot of techniques that will improve your quantity and quality. It depends on your personal preference and how much patience you have for gardening.

Oh I’ll definitely be giving this another try with a lot more love and care. I appreciate all the advice.
I’m going to do exactly as you say for the remainder of the feedings up til harvest time

Alright cool just keep in mind that I'm talking once a week feedings here so 1 tsp next two weeks and then half a tsp for the remaining two weeks after that. Just to avoid confusion.
