I would recommend everyone start with bag seeds provided they realize that they probably won't get anything smokable. It allows someone new a chance to get used to how plants grow, their growing system, how to read pH/PPM and feed and water.

It also allows the new grower to work out any kinks or bugs in the system before planting seed bank seeds.

The downside is the illusion of all that wasted time (I say illusion because learning and gaining experience is never wasted) but I will readily admit that spending months on something that is just going to end up in the garbage could be discouraging. And that is a pretty big downside.

I agree. You can tell that grnman will grow some killer weed given the proper seeds after all this experience and education. He's had his practice laps and is just waiting for the green flag to drop, then look out.

yep - the bag seed looked great and he brought them all the way to flower. that kicks ass!

Hey thanks for the props and encouragement guys. Kinda sent a tingle down my spine - is that gay?

No, I'm not really disappointed at all, like you said I got a lot of experience from this and I wouldn't trade that for nothing. I encountered spider mites (OUCH!), watering issues, minor nute burn, heating issues and a few other things that got tossed my way. A lot to take in for a newb huh?

I just want to take the time to thank all you guys that have listened to me bitch and took the time out of your busy schedules to help me out. There's a few people that come to mind so I'm gonna go ahead and say..

Thanks to email, Sir THC, Picasso, bigbudballs, jordan, and all you other knuckle heads out there - you know who you are!

Gamble, winn420, and cannabum, thanks for following along with me through this grow!

damn grnman, you've been through alot with this grow. at least you know you will be getting bud if you finish this one out. hermied bud is better than no bud. as far as seed banks go, considering we are prob from the same area i would suggest to go with attitude seed bank. i ordered some green house seeds and i got them in 10 days.

p.s. a zone of sour d? please tell me we live in the same area!!!! :LETSgetHIGH:
