Good Morning All. Just signed up. I started growing about a month ago via Aerogarden. I am looking to transition to indoor soil grow. Just here to learn as much as I can and then of course contribute.
Indoor and you are Mother NatureHey everyone...coming to you from Cali. This past summer my uncle gave me 2 seedlings (unknown strains) to see what I can do with them. BTW I work at a growing media plant, so I have some knowledge in regards to soils, pH, etc. Yet in regards to cannabis...it was all new to me. Especially since (please don't hate me) I don't smoke. That didn't stop me from watching countless youtube videos and reading numerous blogs/forums to obtain as much info as possible. One of the two seedlings ended up being a male and therefore was disposed of. I just finished harvesting the female a few weeks ago and even though I made numerous mistakes, I enjoyed the whole process. I've already ordered my 1st batch of feminized seeds (https://www.swarleyseeds.com/) with the hopes that I've learned from my mistakes & will be able to provide peeps with some legit stuff. I just don't know if I can wait till next season or if I should give indoor growing a try.
Check your calendar…. You may be off by a little. Or maybe it’s me.Morning All , I think today is the last day I can say HAPPY NEW YEAR ! For those of you in the freeze, stay warm and keep those plants alive ! -MVP
Welcome back! Once it's in your blood... it's there for life.Greetings from Southwestern New York...!!! I am back growing after a 20+ year hiatus, and legally this time... Still stealth growing using a small 2 x 2 x 4 grow cabinet... Loving LED's (primarily SIL's) compared to the Fluorescent's, HPS, and MH lighting I was using years ago... Currently using nylon rope wicking pots and soil, my preferred watering method, but have also used inert mediums as well as ebb and flow hydroponics...
Thanks... Very true... Been missing growing... Have picked up a few new hobbies but the calling was too great and had to return...Welcome back! Once it's in your blood... it's there for life.
I hear ya with the "other" hobbies. I dabbled with cubensis mushrooms for some time and then went full blown into medicinal and gourmet. Same thing with craft beer.Thanks... Very true... Been missing growing... Have picked up a few new hobbies but the calling was too great and had to return...
Don't buy a 4x4 .too small.you will only fit one plant.always get more than you need then you won't be wishing you did.Hey everybody, I'm 59 years old and going to retire in a couple years and I just found out I have glaucoma. I smoked and grew inside and outside in the 70's and 80's. I live in Southern California and will be getting a medical m card. I have
n't smoked since 97' and the reason being I'm a truck driver and we have DOT drug testing. I plan to start growing in 1 year so I'm trying to get current on indoor growing. I have money to invest and I wanted to try a good led system like maybe grow pro in a 4x4 tent. With soil. Also looking for good medical strain for glaucoma.
Thanks a lot.Hi!
