How long till a smokeable delight? :)

Hi, a friend of mine gave me 5 Laughing Buddha seeds.

i get a lot of strong sun in my (private) house's washing room so i plan to seed them (cloth, cup with water, as your guides explains) and then plant the good seeds in small pots (1 seed in each pot, right?) according to your articles.

How long will i have to wait for a smokeable delight?

Also, to produce more plants i cut stems at the node, got that, but then i plant the clone and... what? i didnt get that part :-/

Thanks, great website

Most likely your gonna need at least three months from seed to harvest, not including drying and curing time. So at the least, 3 1/2 mos. Longer if it's a sativa. Up to 3 months longer at worst.
If your into getting a quick product you might wanna look into getting some autoflower strains like Joint Doctor's Easy Ryder ( http://www.worldwide-marijuana-seeds.com/products/joint-doctors-easy-ryder ) and Lowryder #2 ( http://www.worldwide-marijuana-seeds.com/products/joint-doctors-lowryder-2 ) as Joint Docs been doing it the longest and seems to have the most stable autoflower genetics that I've read about. The only bad thing about AF strains is that you can clone them, but the clone will be the same "age" as the plant it was taken from. So, basically your plant will get smaller and smaller until it's impossible to clone from.

Auto flower strains don't need to be switched to a 12/12 light cycle in order to flower. They just flower after a certain amount of time regardless of lights. Because of that they grow about 30 faster than most other strains. You could order a sees today and germinate a seed today and you'll probably harvest the seed you order faster than the one that you already have.

If you want bud as quickly as possible check out del66666's 12/12 from seed thread.

thanks a million Beansly and secretweapon

bcoz of legal issues, i cant order other strains, just have 5 seeds of laughing buddha and i have to get the most out of it no 2nd chances here

I'm currently germinating them (hope i'm using the correct term), i have patience as this is more of a science project for me than a get-a-spliff-asap project

Once germinated i'll follow articles i read here and will blast my first plants with light, growing moms, clones etc.

Thanks again guys, happy smokin

Mate it takes about 3 months too grow a normal strain from see depending on how long you veg it for. When you say you get alot of sun light can i ask where you live as i dought unless you live in a rly hot country you will have anywhere near anough light too grow a plant in your washer room . Havent got a clue about that strain got any info on it like what it ginetics are ? as some will grow outside in english summer weather others need alot more nice weather than england can give.
What soil you useing you are gona need some good soil( i suggest a hydroponics shop would be best too find this i use canna professional but aslong as its has good drainage and has peat in it should be ok for the plant for the first few weeks of its life ) that has good drainage also need some nutes some for veg some for flowerstage( also use canna nutes ) need too makesure you have a fan on it if you have it indoors helps strenthen stems and keeps good airflow around the plant so it dont suffercate. I rly wouldent get into clones mate as it sounds like you rly dont have a clue about growing weed( read up more about it and have a play bit remember you need to take clones when they are in the veg stage ) its not like a normal house plant it need alot of light nutes and depending on the strain depends on how hard it is to grow. take my advise dont start growing anything buy a book or spend some time on this forum reseach about cannabis when you now how too grow it it is very easy too grow.

let me now what size pots you useing soil and more about the ammount of light we talking about if you started to germinate them can i ask what method you useing to do this ?
