Don't be shy, and if you have any questions, start a thread, and ask away, we'll do our best to help you out.
And it should also say somewhere, that if you seek advice, dont read said advice, then come up with 20 reasons why you dont want the advice or already know...
idk, i see all to often new growers pop up in noobie section asking for help, not appearingly knowing what they are doing in their 1st post, then, when someone knowledgable comes along, and gives the proper advice, they reply, all-knowing all the sudden.
If you know already, dont ask.
If you need advice,ask for it, take it, afterall, thats what this s ite was designed for...it just bugs me to see ppl wasting other ppls time, who are trying to help them.
I had to say something after seeing this exact scenerio play out time and time again...
Carry on

Hi new member here ....

Been growing 4 Special Queen #1 under a 600 hps in 1.2 x 1.2 x 2.0 tent ...Growing in coco using 21l air pots ...using plagron coco A and B ,rhizotonic ,pro-cal and green sensation . This is my first grow and would be happy to hear what people think ? i got the plants about 7 inches high in soil from a friend so stuck them straight into bloom . Only starting week 5 now ... green sensation is pretty pricey but i was told this is a v.good flowering additive from an experienced grower who swears by it so hopefully i see the results . fingers crossed 20150704_205045.jpg20150704_205148.jpg
 
Hey everyone newbie here, I just want to thank all the people who give advice, answer questions etc........ I've been studying for about 3 years preparing myself to try to grow and now about 3/4 way thru my first grow/plant and this site has helped tremendously. I do have a question, I might have a problem with a situation I can't seem to find in a forum and will post it when I know exactly where to and I also want to comb thru the forums because I see some people can be harsh lol. Thanks once again for past and future advice/help!

Hey guys, been growing on and off for 10 years, but pretty much consider myself a newbie still though. Got 2 Super Skunk, 1 Royal Candy and 1 supposed Tutankhamon in there, week 7 right now (Counting from when I switch to 12/12). Looking forward to harvesting, but MAN... never ever will I grow my weed in my toilet anymore. Big mistake, miss that shower so much... Oh, and that super skunk on the left spent few minutes in direct contact with 600w spna when I tried to optimize the lights incase someone wonders about the funky looking leaves.

Anyways, just wanted to say hi since I'm new here.. Hii ! Can't wait to continue reading up on Hydro's etc. Extremely informative posts all over.

Hi,newbie here as well. First time grower. Growing outdoors in containers. Man, the pictures I see here look great, way better than my girls although I have faith in mine. 1 Ice Wreck (from seed-germinated indoors, put outside first of June), 2 Purple Kush (same beginnings as Ice Wreck) and 1 Grape Ape that was given to me, I think it's a clone. The clone doesn't seem to be growing where the other three seem to be doing okay. I'll snap some pic's tomorrow to post and get your opinion.
I'm glad I found this site, seems to be just what the doctor ordered. I just hope I don't annoy people with too many questions.

Here are the pictures of my "girls". I welcome any and all comments and advice. Plants are 27" tall at this point, the ones I germinated. The clone is 17" tall and doesn't exhibit any inclination to get taller. Clone is light green in color the others are the darker green. All criticisim is welcome, thanks

Welcome buddy. Quite the set-up you got. Beautiful girls.

First time grower by myself. I was a helper for someone about 10 years back and I remember a few things, but I do not have any recollection concerning visual health of the plant. I have vigorously studied the many different problems/deficiencies/pests that could occur so at least I am privy to that. I did start a thread concerning one of my plants. I do not remember ever seeing one like it (my profile pic).

It seems i made the correct call joining this forum. It seems there is still a plethora of knowledge and experience and hard work that is available for people like myself to receive from all the helpful individuals here.

I do have an inital question though. Would it be good if I were to snip the vertical growing leaf (where a normal plant would have the stem) so energy is used elsewhere and the light touches the shoots below? I will post a few more pics so you can have a better understanding.

Thank you all in advance for the help i am sure you will provide directly or indirectly.

I have a serious question. I included a pic (from 3 hours ago) of the girls. I plan to mainline all of them (if healthy). I am going for as bushy as possible. Is one 600w MH/HPS (flowering) enough? Or should I get one or two small wattage (60wish) CFLs to place in between. Maybe 4 CFLs to place around the perimeter?

The MH has a 94,000 lumen output, and the HPS was listed at 105,000 lumen.

Thanks in advance

What's up fellas. New here, I grow organically as a fun hobby. Mix my own soil using pro-mix BX and all the usual suspects. Some of my results:

Strawberry banana from RP (1kw)


Blue Dream from HSO (from seed, 250w)


My outdoor garden


OG Kush + a single NL auto (2x 600w)


...to name a few. Just wanted to say hello and show off a few plants.
