Yeah that's pretty decent for the situation that occurred. Just wait till you get your methods down and see how much you begin pulling. Plus the flavors will get better over time. I have become a total bud connoisseur now. I will only smoke my bud with a wooden match so that I don't have to taste the fuel of a lighter.
The good thing is that you are getting the bumps and learning important stuff now rather than having good luck at first and getting a false sense of security. Growing MJ will always find a way to throw you curve balls from time to time. Learning that you can overcome them with patience and diligence and still have a good harvest is a key to successful growing. It takes time to dial in your grow methods and grow space, and that is when it gets fun.
Don't get in too much hurry to do stuff to them. Its easy to overdo it. I have found that with many plants, if you strip them too much down low it causes them to grow up faster because all of the energy is going to the top. That is why many of us top and/or FIM so that the energy will get dispersed to lower branches to produce more bushy plants that create more bud sites.
The key to wooden matches is to let the sulfur head burn off before lighting the material. I hold the stick and allow the flame to move up it just a bit so there is no more sulfur to get drawn into the smoke.
If you like the Sativa high then you would love the Sweet Tooth and Pineapple Chunk from Barney's Farm. Both are pretty manageable growing plants that produce great tasting bud and a very clear headed high. Almost no body stone. I prefer a little stronger body stone with a little clear headed high. The combination seems to work the best for my back pain without being a couch-locking stone.
