Honey Oil: http://www.erowid.org/plants/cannabis/cannabis_info13.shtml Maybe use a metal pipe instead of PVC (might contaminate the oil). And be careful, do it outside. It's explosive. Also use pure butane (no additives) You can also buy the Honey Bee extractor (do a search). Makes it a lot easier. I haven't tried it yet, but will probably get the Honey Bee soon.
Your plants are still quite small, how old are they now? Don't water them too often. They want slightly damp soil, not wet soil.

I figured out that the bugs are spider mites. I have been spraying them with some water to get rid of the nasties.

wont work. im afraid thay will just keep on multiplying and cut your yeild (at LEAST) in half or worse.
furthermore, unless you bug bomb the place, you will get them on each crop you attempt.
probably the worst pest to get. they so thuroghly weaken your plants.
ive tried evrything, NOTHING really gets rid of them, dayly rinsing, soaps, poisons, NOTHING.

Perhaps you are being a little hasty, Mitchnast? My infestation is almost gone. I've simply been spraying them with water and some fert.

the borg will adapt, then return.
as long as you dont mind spraying evryday you can keep them at bay, but know this, they are still there, waiting to thrive again.
the damage they do doesn't really heal, it weakens and stresses the plant a great ammount. so if you let your treatment slip for a few days, you are right back to square one. a really strong fan might give you a further edge. if the leaves are blowing around, the mites cant breed well

It's windy enough outside that the problem is generally under control.

I just got back from camping on the west coast to find that my plants are doing well. All of the smaller ones are showing the classic five-fingered leaf pattern. They are not growing quite as fast as I might like though. Can I speed up the process without using a grow light? Also, none have shown any sex yet.

you can speed vegetative growth by keeping them under a t12 fluro 24 hrs a day.

What does one look for if they are thinking of harvsting some bud? The plant has frosty looking buds and some purple/brown hairs. Does the quality of the bud really get hurt if you harvest too early?
