First of all man, chill the F out. Just because someone doesn't respond doesn't mean we don't want to help you.

But we got grows to handle on our own too - we don't have to grow yours for you. What you need to do is to take some time to learn what to do before you start a grow. That would be the best way to handle it. This way, you can come here when the books and the boards aren't very helpful.

In the beginning, I went to dozens of websites, printed stuff out, and then planned my grow from there.

Some sites with good info:

http://www.advancednutrients.com
http://www.hydroponicmedicalgrower.com

The boards are good too, but I bet you haven't taken the time to look around. Most of your questions can be answered if you just do a simple search for each question. Expecting folks to drop everything and answer this dozen or so questions isn't really realistic. But it looks like you're new to the boards, so no one's going to hold it against you.

I'll answer some of your questions, but do some of your own homework too so that you actually know what to do instead of having to rely on folks here. We got lives too.

* Miracle Grow sucks. It's not for MJ growing. Get good nutes. That's probably why you're having troubles.

* You need to grow somewhere you can visit often. Right now, it sounds like you're not going to be able to control your environment too well, which is just going to cause problems.

* The ratios you're giving here sound wrong to me. Again, take some time to learn about what MJ plants really need, and don't just buy things off the shelf.

Your local garden shops can be really helpful. Just talk about your plants as though you're growing tomatoes and you should get some good advice. But stay away from the Miracle Grow. It's toxic for smoke. It's nasty stuff.

Get "Marijuana Horticulture" off of Amazon. Invaluable resource.

Start learning on your own man. People can't help you out all the time.
