Hey everyone, Im really new to growing. Not new to bud, just tired of the games (when the price is right, the bud isn't, when the bud is right. the price isn't) so I thought I'd give it a go. Lucky for me my fiancee is the coolest girl in the world and she likes to toke with me, so Im allowed to grow some (I know you're all jealous )

Grab a , get , and watch my babies grow big and strong . It's been 3 days since my little ones have sprouted and doing pretty well so far.

Closet CFL Grow - Lots of pics!

I've never personally ordered seeds but there is some great info here about buying seeds.

A How to from Mane**(How To order seeds the best way)***

It's my understanding that there are places that ship pretty discretely but I don't think the repercussions of buying seeds is anything unless you order a ton of seeds.

IMO, unless you have some growing experience I would use bag seed so you don't waste any money if something goes wrong.

Im def. no expert though, just my $0.02

Whats good everyone, Silas here, new to the site and to forums and im loving every moment.. I have another post where i am receiving pretty good help from a couple people, but the more info the better so ill ask a quesiton or two on here. I have my initial grow room researched down, i just would like a little input on my base soil.

Im not rich so i would like something affordable and effective.. I will be potting about 5 plants in a small closet with a 400w hps lamp with mh conversion for veg cycle. Ill be using Fox Farms Trio Nutes and hopefully all will go well.

Soil.
I am aware that there is a world of options for starting soils, and i gather that Potting Mix, Perlite, Sand, and Organic/Pre-Mix are my basic necessities.
I was recommended Fox Farms Ocean Forest Potting soil, which has guano and other various in-soil nutes, then another suggested to add FF Light Warrior to that mix because the Ocean Forest Soil was "known to burn plants." I suppose if it is not a risk with the Light Warrior added ill just go with that combo. But i was origionally going to manually make a Soil Mix with Miracle Grow and various individual products (Bat Guano and Organic Seafood/Fish Fertilizer). What is your opinion on these products? (Fox Farms and Micracle Grow Soils) Does anyone suggest anything different? I am planning to make all my purchases this week so i need something of a final checklist in this area of items for my project.

Whats upper...My name is Ant...Glad to be here i have learned alot reading these threads....Inspired me to go and try it myself...thx

I started my first test grow in a 5'x 3' box i built in my closet 6 days ago with some mystery seeds i picked from my little collection but only one germinated im using a 4' fluorescent shop light as well as a general purpose drop light (my dad said he grew with one at my age) and i have a small fan for air circulation and i am using miracle grow and i have 20-20-20 roids for her(of which i was wondering if it was too strong) This grow cost me 0 dollars as i had all the lights and other stuff just laying around my garage. She is has sprouted her second set of leaves and is about an inch and a half tall i have her on a 20/4 cycle and i water when the soil gets a tad crusty. Like i stated earlier its my test grow to see if this set-up will actually work. If my 'roids are too strong let me know so i dont burn up my little baby.

Hi all I am new to this site but not to the life. Ime here to get some help on starting my first grow and maybe make some new friends. Ive been an everyday smoker for probably 20 years now. Yes a real head. Ive been smokin a long time but have never grown my own with any luck. The reason ime here is ime tired of getting this crap that some people call weed.So if there is anyone that could point me in the right direction with a few questions every now and then that would be great.

Hey i'm new and want attention HI to all.

hey I'm new to this sight not sure exactly how everything works yet. I have a problem with 1 of my plants it is a nothern lights strain and it is growing fast but it seems to be having some problems it is has some twisting leaves they are still green no yellow but just the leaves that grow at the end were your flowers start and its just 1 leave on every branch. I think its retarded or it is growing to fast for its own good

if you can help me that would be great johndoecangrow

Im new to the site. I have grown a few plants the past few years and had only one successful harvest out of all of them. It was the smallest one i have had too lol. but besides that im still trying to get my grow on. My closet is relatively big but i have a 2x3x5 ft closed off for where i am growing. I am only growing 1 plant and plan to flower it early as possible hoping to get a half OZ or the whole OZ.(if any one has any suggestions about when the earliest i can flower pm me) As for the lights I have a 4 bulb light fixture each has a 26w CFL. 3 of them are 6500k daylight spect, the other one is 2700k. The dirt came from a old burn pile i had out back. I figured all that ash would be a great source for Nitrogen. The seed is bubble gum kush, came from bottom of OZ from my connect. I wired a computer fan to a 12v phone charger which puts out some good circulation. Im trying to figure out this whole humidity Thing. Im trying a few things now to improve my plant Like wet hanging rags and a bowl of water in front of my little fan. waiting for results. Ill post pics soon. as of now its a little more than a week old. If anyone has any tips or anything to say feel Free. GROW GROW GROW EVERYONE.
