Not the same kind of flavor as improperly grown, dried or cured bud. Just not my flavor.

Don't overwhelm yourself with things you read on the internet. Get growing. Autos on your first grow may be hard.
I chose autos bc I would like to harvest as fast as possible. I’m tired of paying for overpriced smoke. Why not grow it myself. So autos is more convenient for availability and savings for me.

Nope I need game on all that. I have 4 autos in day 3-4 seedling stage. They are in FFOF and I dusted taproots and top dressed with great white. That’s all I have done so far.
does FFOF have nutes in it already? in my outdoor greenhouse for veggies, i use an all in one from Kelp4less. it has kelp, humic acid and amino acids.

Only if you get them all the way to the pipe. Otherwise learning how to handle a ticking time bomb with live ammo isn't the best approach.

Yes FFOF is a “hot” soil. It has all the nutes it needs for first month. Some ppl don’t add any nutes to it. Not sure ab kelp and acids tho

so like i said, i'm not a dirt guy. and not to knock dirt, but how in the hell do you know when the FFOF soil runs out of nutes? by the time you saw the plant reaction, it would be almost too late to fix. that's why i love hydro.

U add a little and progressively add more. I guess u just have to take chances.

I used to grow in ffof and I would start feeding once the plant hit the third fourth node never had a issue with plant deficiency or toxicities, I would plant seed directly into too it’s not as “hot”as some people would make you think it is

Doesn't it grow on the matanuska tundra?
A long-finishing Indica-dominant hybrid coming from the Matanuska Valley of Alaska, this particular one was given to Sagarmatha seeds by growers in the area. Known for its large fan leaves and big yields along with its Sativa-like effect, it's a very unique example of a near-landrace variety from North America.

Cannabis ruderalis was first scientifically identified in 1924 in southern Siberia, although it also grows wild in other areas of Russia.The Russian botanist, Janischewski, was studying wild Cannabis in the Volga Riversystem and realized he had come upon a third species.[C. ruderalis is a hardier variety grown in the northern Himalayas and southern states

It was actually discovered by Mark Watney.

C3 plants do not need a dark period but they do need time to repair, exceeding DLI will push damage past repair.

In studies they found that not much extra growth happened after 20 hours and for cost purposes deemed this the best light cycle. Those extra four hours were thought to be lost to plant repair over growth.
