I wouldn't chop early unless the buds are at risk. Buds also need to be properly cured before you start to get any sort of flavor out of them (this can take a few weeks). I can't stand the taste of buds that haven't been cured. As the plant gets closer to harvest it will start to use up nutes...

I don't know much about peat, but rockwool works great. You can bury it completely, but the top of the cube usually ends up being flush with the top of the soil.

Check this chart out...it will help

Ask and you shall receive:

Yeah the sand you can get in the concrete section at your local home improvement center.

Over fert is easy to spot once you've had it. First the tips of your leaves will turn brown. Then you will see large brown spots appear on the leaves. The leaves will also feel dry and crispy, not velvety like they should. Judging by your pics I don't see any signs of over fert. Curling...

Sand works too... The sharp edges kill the larve.

Nutrient uptake is best around 6.5 in soil, so you might want to get a tester and adjust your nutes and water. You can see some micronutes are locked out at neutral.

You're good at 12 inches. Here is a good chart to reference:

There are a few things you can do to make sure you don't over water. 1. Get a cheap moisture sensor from walmart or lowes. Like this http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001A5OR5I/ref=redir_mdp_mobile 2. Stick your finger an inch or two below the top of the soil and feel for moisture. 3...

Oops....my bad. I totally meant Dinafem's Power Kush. Thanks Bigjesse.

I posted this in another thread but maybe it will help you: Here is what I have seen done with lots of success, IMHO the best way to ensure a good sprout. Germ the seeds in a wet paper towel, put it in a bag and set that in a warm spot (on top of a cable box works well). Seeds need constant...

Check and then double check for light leaks, they are easy to overlook. As fas as the other plants go, as long as you remove the hermie before the pods burst and pollen is released you should be in the clear. If the pods already burst it's probably too late. You can pinch off the balls as...

Stick with an indica variety if you want a quick turnaround. DNA's Power Kush flowers quick. Also anything in the widow family is usually good for beginners.

Plants usually don't start smelling until a few weeks before harvest, some strains don't really smell while flowering at all. So I guess it would all depend. If you are growing in your closet it should have ventilation anyway so the smell shouldn't build up. If it does you should probably...

Yeah, shit like that happens. Just gotta remember this is trial and error. You will mess up a few times before you get a good system in place. Practicing with bagseed is a good idea but remember genetics on bagseed is usually not so good so your plant will be more succeptable to problems and...

Under HIDs misting will burn plants yes. Plant looks young for HIDs IMO. Vegging under CFLs you can mist all you want. Mist only with water (thought that was implied or I would have said foliar feed), RO or distilled is best. Keeping her cool and moist is most important right now. I...

I like both ideas. Dry ice really sounds interesting though.

Here is what I have seen done with lots of success, IMHO the best way to ensure a good sprout. Germ the seeds in a wet paper towel, put it in a bag and set that in a warm spot (on top of a cable box works well). Seeds need constant warmth or they won't germ. After 12-36 hours the seed...

Go to a local walmart, lowes or home depot and get some organic miracle grow. Add some lime and perlite and you'll be much better off in the soil department. I've seen many a successful harvests with that mix....as long as you are giving it proper feedings.
