  1. After over 10 years of growing myself, I would have to say, over watering in general , but ESPECIALLY in the seedling stage.. there’s a whole host of things to learn and obviously, but in my opinion, overwatering is definitely the biggest issue. It’s still surprises made to this day how many days they can actually go without water.. (ideal temperature and humidity conditions)

  3. Shit seed/genetics = shit output
    spend money on good seeds, or you just waste your time for mids
    Then keep a mother plant and clone, because phenotypes vary within each strain.
    Just because you get one good plant from a seed doesn't mean all the other seeds will be as good.

  7. I'd say it's cheaping out at first. You've gotta be willing to spend money up front
    to grow successfully, and there are still a lot of people using Blurple lights
    and shit soil to grow with.

  12. I love on Facebook. They’re totally pushing an advertising. This thing called Hey Abbey. It’s like a somewhat automated DC system. Looks just like a little refrigerator., supposed to be able to grow up to 6 ounces, fully automated,in DWC (I expressed how I felt that they were scammers, because having a beginner do DWC Hydro is bonkers) lol

  14. Social Media, and myself. Seeds.
     
  15. What would you guys say is the number one beginner problem when starting to grow your own meds??

    1: Social Media or Bro Science
    2: Poor Seed Selection
    3: Poor Growing Skills, soil, water, light
    4: Lack of Education, and or ability to 'self learn' even read

    Best way to fix that: is hang out with a bunch who know what they do, go GC

  16. Trying to do too much, going faster than your skill set, everyone's favorite overwatering & the cure for everything is flushing. TEHO.

    And this has what to do with the thread topic? If you want to show off your plants......start your own thread instead of hijacking this one. :rolleyes:
     
  19. So what kind of soil do you recommend?
     
  20. I use Happy Frog myself, but there's a lot more selection
    now that growing is legal here.

    Used to be, I could only find Espoma and Miracle Grow in winter.
