Hello My name is Nashia.
I am a newbie to this site as well as to growing. I am looking for some help because i havent been successful as of yet. I am from a small little country town and i am trying to get into growing for my own personal use. I am in love with the movement to legalize cannabis. I have tried to become active in the movement to legalize it. I have been having some issues with growing because i dont have the support nor help that i need and i hope that i can find the help and the knowledge here. i am looking for someone to help me. I have an anxiety disorder, and cannabis helps me with he emotions that come up in my everyday life. I have taken medication since i have began using cannabis in my everyday routine.
 
Hello my name is JT.
I am fairly new to growing and am still working on my stealth box. I really like small things that pack a punch which is why i decided to go with a stealth mini grow for my personal use. My goal is to make my own strain that is small but will be almost a one hit quit. Its a lifelong goal but for now I just wanna get started by letting you all know who I am haha. I have a few projects underway and next year by Feb-Apr my first grow will have started. Until than I will write my plan out and wrench on my box to make it fool proof. Check ya later guys :bigjoint:

Hi Nashia and Welcome to RollItUp :-)

I want to thank you so very much for being an advocate for the legalization of cannabis, both on the recreational aspect, but more importantly to a lot of us, on the Medical side of the coin. MMJ is vital to so many different ills that we suffer from, but are stuck in the minds of a lot of people who back the big Pharma companies. Cannabis has been around a lot longer than they have, and with people like you, will be around til the end of time.

I would kindly suggest that you troll the many Sub-Forums on here at RIU, especially the Sub that deals with the Medical side. I would also suggest that you take your time, and troll around some of them , looking at the many ways to grow. You do not need to spend a lot of money, so need not worry about being out in the country where the nearest Hydro store is 200 miles away. As long as you are near a Home Depot or Lowes, you will find pretty much what you need to get going for your needs :-)

There are a lot of members on here that will answer any question(s) that you may have, usually within 5 or ten minutes of your post. The only thing that we ask, is that you give us as much information as possible, so that we do not have to waste some valuable time honing in on what you are doing. Pictures work great too if possible :-)

Again Nashia .... Welcome and Hope To See You Soon on Here :-) God Bless

Happy Holiday Trails !!
The MaineYankee :-)

Thanks Murph :-) I am by nature that kind of person. When I was working for the past company that I worked for, there were over 600 employees. Every one of them new me, but only a few knew the CEO and what he looked liked. In matter of fact, every one called him Mr. Cottrel,... I called him Paul :-) He liked me a lot !!

Thanks again Murph :-)
 
Outside is the best place for a plant of course. Don't even bother to water the plant unless is a very dry place. Let nature do it for you unless there's a drought in your area. You can not overwater a plant in the outdoors, its very hard unless the soil has lots of clay mixed up with the soil. If water takes too much time penetrating into the soil, there's too much clay in the soil and viceversa. To know your plant needs water the top soil layer will let you know(Cracks, loosen soil and plant gets droppy at the top) The only thing that I do advise you to take seriously are 2 main things which are: "Security & PH". Good luck. About fertilizing, I would do it every 2 to 3 weeks, depends on the quality of the soil, some soils come with slow release fertilizers, so becareful to overfertilize your plant. This is science, i advise you to educate yourself a bid about this matter. People have the tendency either to give out to much complicated info or sometimes the wrong info and it generates confusion.

Mmmm how to start this ?
Here it goes (pardom my English).
I have been a smoker for over 15 years and i would say a heavy tokker the last 10.
Growing the plant was always something i wanted to do. I find it the most honest attitude towards the public ( i grow my own, smoke my own and leave "gangsters" aside). Plus i live iin a corner of the world that half/monded and dried weed is sold. Usually with a lot of seeds in.
Being researching a lot i tell you. Being reading forum after forum after "growing cannabis guide >click here" and stuff. I found it quite ammazing i was learning some basics of gardening, plus moving towards the rigth decissions of equipments in order to save money, work, hope and the rest thats waisted after a no/bad crop.
First i had to deside about lights. Oh my god ! Read about Wats, lumminets, spectrums, HPS, fluro and LEDs. Finaly i decided i go for LEDs researched a bit more, found out that leds above 2W each can make buds dence, spectrums have to cover the orange ligth and stuf.
I have found a good deal (so far it seams the lamp is doing ok) of a 120W LED with 2W leds in a ratio of 5:5:1 for 140 € from a Europian manufacturer that seams a pro in doin the "garden stuff"
I decided not to start with branded seeds because i firstly wanted to see how the plant in general behaves, under my lamp, what size will it get, how much pot, water and all the stuff people tell you to observe and learn from your plant. Of course i knew that if i was to do some serious growing i had to start with the rigth seeds, but that could wait. Patience rigth ?
So, saved some beans from a bag of good weed i got (no named strain just good weed) and started strugling with germination. To cut the story sort i had like 15 wasted attemts ! I knew it was the seeds but NO i would be lucky to pop 2-3 of those and see them grow.
And i did ! 2 of them did pop strongly, advanced through soil, popped the first 2 sets of real leaves. I had to decide the correct space between my lamp and the pots, so i burned one of them :(
All of this time i was unwilling to sign up in a forum as this is. But then i found you guys. I found straigh forward information, good guides people willing to suggest and help. I also found out why the above sidling was having dark green leaves with a hard solid texture. Moved the ligth higher a bit and signed in.
Also, i took your advice of a recommented beenshop and ordered some seeds from Sannie, to really start growin now. Great service by the way, glad i decided to go with him.
Nowadays, i continue to veg that "unknown" strain under my LED for 20/4 hours and i think it is doing pretty well (see picture) and also i started germinating some of sannies.
This is my story so far :)
So people, nice to meet you all, thank you for all this info given. next puff is for you all !
Here are some pictures. Seedling popped out of the pot at 4 Dec and at the 14th of Dec i started feeding it with a 13-6-9 nutrient in a slow release tabled (organic it says) :) .
Hope i am doing ok here.
Once again , glad i joined.
