self explanitory, which sucks the most.

Edit: Trimming included in curing, sexing/hermie hunting included in flowering.

the worst and hardest part for me is always trying to figure out wtf i want to grow next... thats the worst... a close second is the seedling stage though..

None of the above. The correct answer is trimming.
I would put trimming in with curing, should have worded it better. Also should have added sexing, cuz I know on my reg beans that is the worst finding a male or god forbid a last minute hermie.

well, if was waiting for my harvest and didnt have anything to smoke

That would suck

but not growing my own. it would suck Not growing my own.

considering the prices you sell it at, its kinda funny hearing growers complaining about trimming.

life can be consideratly better if you just change your way of thinking.

NOTHING, why grow if it sucks???
For the final product :D I grow all sorts of plants and veggies too, I have a 2nd garage that constantly smells like either manure or amonia from different soil mixtures. It's possible to love growing but have one part be the one you most want to get through.

The hardest part is the Vegetative stage for me. xD The planning is over. The cute innocent baby stage is over. No beautiful buds to fawn over. O.O Nothing. Just alot of close attentive care and work.

Yeah, I have arthritis myself and it can really fuck my hands up after trimming for several hours, along with my back as well, I guess I could change my way of thinking, but my joints will still hurt, lol....

My biggest obstacle is flowering. Switching nutes and being very careful of nute build-up, the need to flush, knowing when to harvest, freaking out about hermies, stretching, Buds being too heavy for the stalk, etc. It used to keep me up at nights. :p

Ok got ya, well my least fav part is the cure, patience is not my virtue.
And trying to clean soil/manure/compost from under my nails sucks, stinky fingers all day when u smoke is nasty (i've also got a huge veggie and flower garden)

I would say waiting for seeds.
I dont get why most votes are under flowering. thats probably one of the best times, watching buds grow from start to finish right before your eyes.

QFT that stuff never gets out. I'm fairly sure the quickest way to produce compost is to put a small piece under your fingernails then scrape them every 5 minutes, it just multiplies. That and my dog always shits beside the manure compost bag.

As a first time grower ive got to say the worse part so far for me has been flowering, Theres nothing much to do apart from waiting for it to finish its cycle so i can smoke some decent weed :)

The days are getting longer and longerrrrr lol (Fecking irritating :))

I'd say once you get your nutes, media, strains, basically your whole system dialed in properly none of the actual growing should suck, and should be a smooth process. So maybe getting it all figured out is the worst part, growing used to be stressful at times but now it's quite seamless.

It probably has a lot to do with medium too. I know that using soil vs hydro I worry a lot more about the veg stage in soil because I mix my own and am always worried how I mixed it was wrong. I love the flowering stage, the aromas, the buds getting fat, it's probably the time of less patience though.

For me, the hardest part is waiting for the girls to recover after some kind of bug or root pathogen attack.

I love watching the explosive growth and rapid changes that happens noticeably every day with this plant.
