Welcome New Members!

What's up everyone? Just a quick intro since I'm new here. I just started a closet grow with DWC setup. It's my first ever and it's with NL/Skunk cross from Attitude Seeds (except I think they resell from World of Seeds?). I've got three plants going now, and I've already learned my lesson about using too much nutrients, as I pretty well mutilated one and almost killed another. Lesson learned...don't trust what the back of the nute bottle says, go with a PPM meter. Anyway, 3-4 weeks in now, so I'm sure I'll have questions. Actually, have one about temp which I'll post now...
 
HeyHey!!! Just joined & this is my 1st post ever! & 1st REAL grow! My husband & I found a lil' hobby to do together. I've been a pothead for 15 years, then stopped for about 6 years, now back at it full force & completely legal. Which it should be 100% legal anyways... but I'll save that for a different post!

Quite possible, but why? To what end? If you've vegged in the "sun", gotten good results, why go inside under expensive, artificial light?..........BB

Hello :] I Recently Purchased A Pack Of 10 White Widow Seeds From Nirvana, As Soon As they Arrive I Will Be Posting Pics On My Growth Progress And Hopefully Can Get A Few Tips And Advice From Fellow Members. =}
 
Hey brothas. haha well this is my first time growing..... and i've bought a bag of Miracle Grow Potting Mix. Is this okay to use? i mean i know about the time released nutes being a bad idea.... but i just realized how bad it could be with just a little research, but i'm also hearing that if i don't water too much that the little nute balls won't overnute the plants. i have four plants that are the size of my pinky near about. and they're all seeming to be growing well at this point. I gave them a half gallon of water today, just to soak the soil really well. is that okay to do? i mean the soil already dried out a good bit and started to be almost completely dried out. and i've watered them about 200 ml everyday before today. today is my fourth day. i'm actually just a 17 year old kid who loves weed.... haha. i'm just trying out the growing process now to see what it's about, who knows maybe i'll become an expert one day. i mean honestly usually everything i do i become an expert at... well anyways that's beside the point. what i'm wondering is have i watered them too much? will i be able to successfully flush my plants when it comes to harvest time? cause i accidently got the 6 month feeding kind.. i think i've actually done quite wrong. i mean i'm pretty sure my plant is still gonna make it to harvest, i'm just wondering if i don't flush them well will my bud have a really bad taste? or not smoke well? i just need all the advice i can get. thanks you guys who reply to my post. and happy 420 (;
 
Actually, that's not too bad of an idea to do that. Because once your plants start flowering they will become prone to more and more things, like bud mold if it rains too much on them. And also bugs and rodents will try to eat your crop.

But bringing them inside will surely eliminate these problems. just make sure you got the right setup for inside. you don't wanna go from growing outside in a strong environment to an inside weak environment. then your plants wouldn't meet full potential. happy growing :)

Hey everyone. Very 'newbie' here and my 1st grow. Just finished building my first grow box from an old cabinet I had in my utility room (thanks to the help of my brother). It actually turned out pretty nice. Started with 3 150W CFL's and just today went with the Hydrofarm 2' 4 tube commercial T5 setup. Removed the 150W CFL's. Have about 18 plants (strain unknown) from seed that was given to me. Doing the 24 hour thing currently. About 3 weeks now. Going totally organic. I am a disabled VietNam vet and live in a non-medical MJ state. Which sucks. Anyway, wanted to introduce myself and am finding this site very useful. Thanks to everyone for sharing so much knowledge.

Hi Everyone -

Guess you could say I'm new around here. Been a member for a while but just got my own computer so will be starting to post more often. I am currently starting a new garden so perfect timing. Would love for any of you to come by and check it out. Im going to post some pictures of my crop that is in flower tonight so there will be something more to look at than bags of dirt. - Happy growing! Be Easy - PLP

New (about to pop) babies:

Hi there, Well... I've had my first experience with 'attempting' to grow some MJ. I think I might have waited too long to harvest as it almost seems the clearly female plants ahve now turned a bit ' male' as they seem to have grown some 'ball shaped beginnings' and it just doesn't smell right anymore :0(
I'm trying, but even with all the info online it's rather difficult. So via this thread I am hoping to learn... ;0)

Sometimes, when the buds are getting super ripe, they may seem to be developing "balls", but it could just be the buds are fattening up real nice... As Burger said, pics would help with diagnosis.

Great to have you aboard! T5's are the bomb if you ask me... I'm a CFL/T5 grower myself and it's amazing the kinda buds you can get if all your other factors are dialed in correctly (humidity, temps, soil pH, water pH, and nutes)... I'm a big fan of going 16/8 in the beginning when you've got mystery seed (not feminized) as it seems to produce more females.

Good luck!

I'd only bring them inside if you know that you're facing those problems... If it ain't broke, don't fix it! I'd think converting an outside grow (if it's in the later stages of Veg or any time during flower) would be kind of a step backwards if everything is going well. You'll never "exactly" recreate the sun in your house, so if everything is doing fine under natural light in normal outside conditions, why change? Also, moving your crop indoors simply for "bud rot" security or to avoid pest problems isn't the best approach IMHO. These things can be just as prevalent in an indoor grow as they are in an outdoor grow... As with all things MJ, everything depends on your specific situation. You'll never get a step by step process that is identical to someone else's process that will work exactly the same. Every single grow, hell every single plant is a unique situation! Growing is about taking what you know, seeing what works for you, and adapting that knowledge to your individual situation.

Just my 2 cents...
