I'm only on my 3rd indoor run. I also suffer from impatience.
I have about a thousand pics of the 1st grow, 100 of the 2nd grow...now I hardly open the door. At first I would open the doors and just marvel at the magic.
Here let me show you
Those are my happy girls
Be sure to be prepared for the next run, this is where my energies need to be focused. I haven't got the timing down for the plants on deck to ready for immediate flowering. Always room for improvement, yeah take a gander at 'em, but then work on getting more proficient.
Good Luck with your grow, I'm having the best time with my garden.
Excuse me while I
Another thing, be ready
Respect,

my grow is in the loft,and my lights go on overnight, and i have kids - so i am lucky if i get to see it every other day - sometimes for literally 5 minutes.
which means my plants get left alone to grow.

icmag.com!
ive been building and rebuilding my grow rooms. pondering new setups, new genetics, seeds, breeding, cloning, nutes, res upkeep, and LST. keeps me occupied as i watch my plants grow.
the weeks are falling off the calendar now, my perpetual setup is nearly dialed. i spend about 5-60 minutes a day on it, mixing nutes/changing water, taking clones, transplanting clones, LST, bugwatch, checking and adjusting ph.
i do love to bask in the glory though, plants are growing daily and theres always something new to see.

These help too!
It's funny how after years of growing it's still somewhat exciting to look at your plants each day (turns out watching plants grow is actually fun!)
My lights-on period is during the night (7pm-7am), and I work during the day so it's not like i'm sitting around twiddling my thumbs waiting til I can see them next.
Of course, you could try a hobby? I like to collect the arms and heads off the statues that have no arms or heads.

When it's safe, I like to open up the cabinet, let my little tribe see what's happening in the outside world, groove to some cool tunes, maybe watch some tube!
Wait till you get to flowering!
I am one my XXXth grow and i still just sit in there sometimes (it was easier when it was a not a little tent
). Go on IC, Mix nutes, plan plan plan...my life seems to be a cycle of many ~ 2 month segments.
The big question is, what would you do with all this time if you went growing??
