What three tips do you wish you could give to your younger self to make you a better grower?

Assuming you've been growing awhile, what three tips do you wish you could give to your younger self to make you a better grower?
Or
If you've only been growing a short time, what three grow tips would you ask your future self?
I'd tell myself:
1. Never take a clone from somebody else's garden or nursery.
2. Look into living soil.
3. Get some Blumats.

1. Just Send It
2. Don't Harvest Yet
3. 3 gallon > 7 gallon (Personal Opinion, No Expert Advice Here)

1.) Never overwater
2.) Buy a quality grow tent
3.) RESEARCH everything like a madman.

Number 2, for sure.

1. Tell Mars hydro to fuck themselves
2. Stop watching YouTube videos
3. Make sure those damn kids got the cash before they get the zips

A quality grow tent would have saved me in the beginning too. I had so many pin holes in mine that I wrapped it in panda plastic.

Never speak of your grow, only to your better half in RL. This includes family. Never cut your own throat or make yourself vulnerable if in a non legal state or area. Thats why RIU exists, you can talk here.

1. You're not the exception
2. Apply yourself
3. Don't believe the fan boys

Never piss into the wind

Dont get married

Never quit a job unless you already have another 1 lined up

Pay your taxes

When she's says "you're the best I've ever had, or, we're just friends I swear" she's lying to you.

Trust no one, not even family. The're normally the first to screw you over.

Never grab a snake by the tail.

Remember you have freedom of speech but not of the consequences.

-Keep your mouth shut
-You can grow anywhere, anytime without having to worry if you keep your mouth shut
-buy seeds from Scott Reach

A: Once big and you hire, never hire under 30 yo and drug test often, pay well punish hard
B: Have a plan always have a out, always have someone to blame and pay him well
C: No such thing as corruption, unless you are overpaid, bribe and bribe well
D: Have lots of friends, friends give info for free, pay well, more so in US, Iran ,nth Africa

1: Get rid of the wife.
2: Get rid of the kids.
3: Get rid of the job.
