Teach me how to grow!!!!

Lmao completely random, but this is all I ever hear from my friends. They actually think that I can just TELL them the steps and that they can learn to grow just like that without them doing proper research and reading.One friend says to me "all you gotta do is just tell me what to do" after I told him a million times that it's gonna take more than me just TELLING you. It took me several attempts to finally get everything right and I tell them that it's not CUT AND PASTE and when I get technical like talking about PH and PPM's and temps they get lost in the sauce and dunno wtf im talking about lmao....Any of you guys closest friends ever pester you about teaching them to grow?

Or the best is when you set them up, I mean everything. Strain, equipment, and a known working strategy.


And than in two weeks of growing, they become experts and want to tell you how to dance.

Fuck that, give me my shit back, you figure it out. I've got ten years in this game and your gonna tell me. Show me, don't tell mofos

Ahaha yea, I have a friend that wanted me to teach him to grow, he actually expected me to go to his house and help clean his dirty ass closet AND convert it to a grow area for him. I told him to clean his own damn closet and call me when he's done. Two years later and he still hasn't cleaned his closet.

The first thing to know about growing is TELL NO ONE. Just tell them that, chuckle, and walk away.

you really can't instill the passion necessary to grow good weed into someone. it requires a zen frame of mind, just wanting to get high isn't enough to be a marijuana grower. you have to have respect for the needs of a totally passive living organism.

Haha I'm very new and I'm trying to pass along what info and knowledge I have gotten from here and other books to my buddy,and it seems every time I tell him something he will turn around and tell me the same info I just told him.. Very funny.. All I can do is say "that sounds about rite"..lol

I have done 3 grows. First turned out male. 2nd and 3rd female. For a beginner i'd say i did really very good. Ofcourse this was after months and months of reading here and else where. Had a lot of issues but ended up with enough to last me 8 months.

That was last year. Just started a new micro grow. Seed germ'ed. Keepin my fingers crossed.

So yea without the "passion" mentioned above good luck gettin decent results.

Hell yeah bro, I actually LOOOOVE growing, and its not something that you just decide out of the blue that you want to do all of a sudden. You have to really WANT it. There are times when I go to check on my plants and just gaze at them checking on em and an hour will have passed by, but it doesn't seem like an hour because I just love looking at them lol

Man I fucked up so many times when I first started lol. First couple of times I tried soil, but I didn't know that I couldnt just use any soil haha I went and bought some cheap shit from the nursery thinking it would work and my seedlings never even made it past seedling stage. After that I did hydro and got em to grow, but I had a 250w hps with built in ballast and no exhaust in my tent so temps were insane. It literally took my plants from July to October to flower lmao. AFter I got temps and stuff down and got my shit to grow perfect I fucked up on the drying process so yup my whole harvest molded smfh....All of this from 2007-2009. 2010 is when I perfected everything lol so it took me damn near 3 years to figure it out
