I am strongly considering starting to grow. But as of now, it is winter here, I have no seeds, and I still am just in the researching stages. Here are my beginner questions... -How long after the snow thaws until I can plant my seeds (I will be planting them outdoors.) In other words what is the ideal temperature for growing, or does it even matter. -What are the best type of beginner seeds that won't cost too much but will produce nice buds, without needing expensive equipment or bundles of growing knowledge. -Would it be better for me to plant the seeds into pots, or just into the ground soil? -Also if you have any other good pointers or tips for somebody who is just starting out please feel free to express them! I'd really appreciate any answers... thanks. Keep on truckin.
