been smoking for some years. never tried growing but seeing how i spend money on buying it why not grow it = better bud im 100% positive of that since my city has just high mids mainly. i've been browsing for what i'm going to need to start this, planning on beging it mid next month. any tips? best soils, best seed sites. ect. this should be very rewarding in the end. also i'm going to be growing inside. limited on space. sort of.
Look around, here and absolute beginners section, then htgsupply.com has pretty much everything you need, minus seeds. Seed discussion can be found in its own section. As a new grower myself, please PLEASE do all of your homework, check out grow journals, read stickies, and all that jazz LONG before you start up. Then test all your equipment, your set up, make check lists, every and anything before you start growing, less stress to your plants the better, and thats comes from being prepared. Most of all, have fun man, and good luck.
Lol theres more than high mids in the 717 but like anywhere else there is a shitload of mids. As for recommendations your best off reading some different tutorials on the boards that will give you tons of great advice. Good luck man I'm hoping to start an indoor grow soon and definitely an outdoor grow this summer. I had a plant going real nice last year outdoor during the summer months but it got attacked by an animal .
word word. im going to do some homework b4 i get anything, i looked into that section theres a lot to it, seems easier then what it is. its def going to be a project. also how many seeds per cycle should i use? max? minimum? & i mean know theres more then high mids here (seeing your from york) i can't find anything tho. a lot of ppl try to pass it off as dank shit & im like naw.
If you figure out what kind of space your gonna have, maybe even some dimensions, i can tell ya exactly what you'll need. Also what type of setup do you want? A stealth box, a tent, maybe your in a closet, either way the people of GC are extremely knowledgeable and helpful so if there's something you don't know be sure to ask and im sure you'll be growin the stickiest of the icki before you can say "fat ass nuggets"
Plenty of tut's and what to do's around the forum, just do a search. Also, if your limited on space, look up micro grows.
Read this great tut from chiefton8: http://forum.grasscity.com/absolute...-comlete-guide-growing-your-own-cannabis.html
well its going to be in my closet. theres more hight then width. involved. dimensions the floor is 2 ft & some change from the back of my closet into my room. & theres like 5 ft & some change from the floor to the shelf thats in my closet.
ok, i have a small setup very similar to that, idk how good you are with your hands or tools but i made a perfect little tent to fit my space. I took a few sticks of 1/2 pvc and built a little box to fit snugly in the space i had and wrapped it in that panda plastic, thats white on the inside and black outside. Inside i have a 150w hps for flower and about 175w of cfl for veg. For ventilation i just put a 4" flange on the top and one on the bottom with a 4" inductor fan with a 2600 can filter. my temps are right around 72-76 F and you'd never know it was there when the doors shut and its not using very much power at all. Because of its size im only growin one plant in it, but one 3- 3.5ft plant can give me enough bud to tide me over til next harvest for sure. if you want a lil more detail in how to do this and what you need lemme kno im glad to help, my setup is working excellent, id like to see it work for someone else too
1 seed per pot always, just use lil pots til you need somethin bigger. How many plants are you plannin on and what are your dimensions so i can give you a list of what youll need
since its a seed per pot ill start with one plant. for a test run. & my demensions im not to sure. back of the closet to the door is about 2 feet. & im going to have it in my far right corner so from that wall i have about a really good amount of space to work with. hope that helped a bit to give you an idea. do you think by chance i could get a pic of your setup so i could get an idea of how i could do my setup?
I wanted to chime in and hopefully head off heartache a couple of months down the road. IMO, you should plant more than one seed...unless they are feminized. You have a 50/50 chance of getting a male or female with each seed, so planting more than one will increase your odds of getting a plant you can smoke. You can grow a plant to sexual maturity in a 16 oz. party cup, so space wont be an issue. I'd say plant 3-4 and let them grow for a month or so. Then switch your lights to induce flowering and cull those plants you don't want (males mostly). Up pot the girl(s) and you can switch the light back to veg. if you want to let them get bigger before flowering, or just keep the light at 12/12 and flower them.
yea, ill get a pic for ya tomorrow, and yea what he said ^^^^^ i currently have 10 lil guys in my box on 12/12 until i can determine their sex, once i figure that out im gonna veg 3 females and take the best one of the three and flower it. kinda the best version of selective breeding i can do. as far as grow related supplies the main things youll need ill put links here for 150w HPS High Tech Garden Supply Fan & Carbon Filter High Tech Garden Supply High Tech Garden Supply High Tech Garden Supply Panda Plastic High Tech Garden Supply A Few other small things youll need High Tech Garden Supply High Tech Garden Supply i also use iguana juice grow & Bloom from Advanced Nutrients I made the tent i use to fit my space because it was so limited, if you can afford it, it may be easier for you to try something like this: GrowLab GL60 Grow Room
