U.K. New to growing

Discussion in 'First Time Marijuana Growers' started by Uknewbie, Jun 27, 2017.

  1. Thank man do you know where I could I get a decent kit? I would preferably like to get a kit.
     
  2. Have you even decided what grow method you plan on using? Growing weed requires a plan and knowledge and good equipment to get good yields and potent buds. You don't need 8 plants - I harvest over a pound every grow with only 2 plants and 1 light.
     
  3. I've read so much different pieces of advice and I just want help with the whole thing what set up to have and also what strain to go for.
     
  4. If you are dead set on a kit just look up good brands and websites and buy a tent filter/fan combo.... the thing about it is these kits tend to cost more than individually buying these items... there are some that come with everything including the light but idk man it's not that many different things

    Intake and outtake inline fan 4" or 6"
    Gives you nice positive pressure in the tent and keeps all the air moving and pushes air through the carbon filter to eliminate smell you also need duct work for this stuff but that should be available locally.

    Light
    You could run two 600W HID with air cooled hoods and really dominate in that tent or Cob or CMH are both good to look into

    Carbon filter 4" or 6"
    Controls the smell

    Tower Fan
    Helps move the air in the plants canopy and help reduce the chance of mold and strengthen stems.

    Tent
    whatever size you'd like I know a nice 4x4x6 or something would give you potential for a nice yield but you'd definitely be an the 6" filter and intake

    Soil
    Fox farms I personally prefer happy frog mixed with perlite and garden lime... you can go on their website and go to store locator and see if anyone sells it locally but idk with your region... fox farms ocean forest is also popular both available online...

    Plant food
    Just do your research on which foods you would prefer... I personally use dyna gro but with the souls I use I don't even need foods until late flower. Also need a ph meter or solution test kit as well as ph up and down.
     
  5. I told you in an earlier post that you would get dozens of different opinions, and I also recommended the type of strains to use and a breeder. You need to make a decision on your grow method before anyone can help you - we can't decide for you, and we can't go through the entire selection process - make a decision and whoever grows that way can give you advice. I'm pretty much over this. Good luck.
     
  6. Thanks dude you are the reason I came here much appreciated! Total respect ✊

    I understand that he is trying to learn and I help as many people as I can on a daily basis. However it's difficult to help when he doesn't have a clue about what growing method he wants to use, nor has he made any decisions whatsoever about his grow at all. We're here to give advice when a grower has a problem - not hold his hand and help him make every decision. A lot of his questions were answered and he was given a lot of good advice but he keeps asking the same ones, and not just on one thread, but two. He was given 2 links for information on growing and basically blew them off because he wants all of us to educate him. You're right - I was no expert when I started, and I'm no expert now - but I did research, made decisions on my own, and learned from my mistakes.

  11. I didn't blow them off at all? I am very grateful for the advice I have received here and also browsed the links that was attached. The thing is I have been on many sites and doing loads of research, this is part of that research. I'm just trying to get as much advice as possible and compare notes sort of thing.

  12. That's not a problem at all... I read everything everywhere and watched every video... helped me a good bit... but the forums helped more especially keeping a journal. My first grow was not going that good at all until I actually jumped into grasscity started using my account again and reading everything and of course being able to get responses pretty quick for my specific problems...
