Re: Beginners Guide To Get You Started in Growing Cannabis

Assuming that this is done the right way, about how long does it take on average to yield buds capable of being smoked? Is this couple of week long project or a couple of months?

Re: Beginners Guide To Get You Started in Growing Cannabis

I know this guide thoroughly explains the process of growing, but what would happen if I just planted some seeds in a pot (or backyard)? Would they not grow at all? Not worth smoking?

Thanks

idk what kinda weed u see, but a plant from seed on 12/12 wont have buds on it in 2wks, it takes 2wks from seed for them to enter the flowering stage, mj plants wont flower until they are mature enough. if seed is on 12/12 from the start u can expect buds in about 8wks. if from a veg cycle, it will take the veg time + the plants flowering time to get good smokable bud.

it will grow, but plants need food just like we do to survive.

Re: Beginners Guide To Get You Started in Growing Cannabis

Hello,

I appreciate the info..my question is when it comes to odor control, what do you mean by a small grow or in other words how many plants will the carbon/filter cover up and gaurantee the 99% masking of the smell ?

Best cleaning agent

Can anyone tell me what is the best (safest) choice of cleaning agents to use when I drain out my ebb and flow system and refresh the water supply? I don't know what I should use when I'm wiping down the reservoir walls. I have searched all day and can't find anything related to cleaningof hydroponics areas. Any suggestions would help, thanks.

they make dif size carbon filters for this reason, but even a small carbon filter should be able to control the odor of 10 plants, the more plants the quicker the carbon will have to be replaced or recharged w/ a smaller filter & vise versa
