They don't put in those kind of specifications on our prescriptions here in California
There's grow limits but you know we can get whatever we want to smoke every day
No but under pc288 you do gotta register every month. Easier then watching all 14 yr olds I guess.

Done and done my Hippy friend! The only thing left to get are lights. I'm still researching and learning about them.




Gotcha!
Well you basically have 3 choices HPS ( flowering ) or Metal Halide ( vegging ) , Induction or L.E.D.
Everyone has their particular favorite. They come in all sizes so you can buy one that suits your setup.
Which one you choose depends on your requirements and room size.

Ive been growing for around 35 years. I sorta forget what being a newb is about but heres my two cents.
I would start with feminized, non auto seeds. Just try to get a crop off before adding sexing, cloning, mothers and all that extra to the learning curve you are about to tackle.
Next round try some reg seeds if you like. Auto's wont have the kick you want. You cant practise cloning with them and you need to run your lights longer. They are for northern outdoor growers imho.
If you are set on Crop King try their Northern Lights. Its a great strain for beginners
Def go with soil to start and if you dont take any of my advice...please buy a good ph pen. If you want to PM I can help you more
VERY GOOD ADVICE for you guys and gals starting out
the other thing that I should mention is for you to wade in over in the grow sections of this site....
there is absolutely tons of good and bad info....but once you have read there for a while you will be able to figure out what is good info from bad info...pretty easily.
I have only been at it for a few years but out of necessity, I had to reduce the learning curve...down to something that was realistic...for my health needs...
but It can easily be done with all the help you have available here....so best advice is to ask....because real patients and artisan's don't mind helping out...
I started with bag seed on my first go and did pretty good...but 2nd round I went at it with store bought...feminized...seed and 2-1000 watt lights...and I haven't looked back
and northern lights was one of the strains of fems I used.
I have been expanding the strain list ever since....and I have been happy with the results....which have improved with each grow...and I have tried to make things as simple as possible....so that it became a stress reliever,rather than a chore...

I have always ran T5 along with the 1000 watters
First ..when they are small just the T5 ...a couple of inches above...
once they are ready to switch to 12/12 ..I flip the T5's to face to sides of the plants and use 1 bank of 4 footers, on each side of the grow. Then run the 1000 watters over top about 18" above to tops.
So basically all sides of the grow area's emit light.
And last but not least I use 2- 100 watt... standard white lights... to fill out the light spectrum...color wise....
(got that tip from a seasoned grower...)

Consider induction.....they have come way down in price and provide great results. The big advantage is bulb longevity 8 years as opposed to basically 1 year. . I will prematurely dismiss the flak that recommendation will generate by saying that I've seen side by sides where the inductions did just as well as the HPS .....just saying. I've seen this myself so I believe it. They don't penetrated down as low as the big HPS will, but if you space the plants correctly they do very well.
I'm sold on them in general.

Induction is probably the best I've ever used in veg, early stage, not so much week 4. I took them out of bloom, very disappointed.

Stay away from crappy autos and i wouldnt waste my time on crop king either.
Ive seen a few of their strains grown out and i didnt want to try any of them myself.
Get a 1000watt mh/hps digital conversion light and try running 6 plants under it in a 5 foot by 5 foot room.

my script is 34 grams a day...oral, inhalation...takes a whack of good bud to make my oral products....;))

i'm a fan of Phoenix tears...take a half gram twice a day & it's helps a lot with chronic pain...that's what our use if for (wife takes it) and she has made incredible strides at recovering. when she was on Pharma, all she wanted to do was sit. didn't want to go out..didn't want to help herself. it was really bad. i made some very easily & a year or so later, she is off ALL the opiates & methadone. we laugh again!!!!!
