Hello all! Newb here 58 years old, I think it would be cool to see what the age of everyone is. Are there more old farts than young bucks? One of the few things that is better with age is wisdom! that's all we have!

Thanks man appreciate it.. I just know there is no reason I should mess up at growing...it is an exact science all you need is knowledge and we'll with the internet there is no excuse not to succeed... I know mirrors reflects more plus added bonus of no clostraphobia lol... I am taking this seriously have my friend who is quicksilvers head finance guy his wife who is a brokerage and real estate company for purchase of second grow sight and her dad a 40 year architect they are chefs as well so it's gonna be fun making food... I'm also getting a supercritical co2 extractor for oil...

Good to hear Rich, sounds like you have a good handle on it, and old saying is "You have to learn how to lose before you can learn how to win". I think if a person has the cahona's to try they will become successful in the end! Let us know how you get along.

I have learned lessons such as what the hell is wrong with my 4 week old plants... Over watering lol I was looking at viruses symptoms and everything but it was so simple... Next lesson was plant all in the ground the potted ones are as big as I'd like but if it gets too hot I Can at least move them into shade... I also learned how to prevent all variables of my plants dying prevention is key also being aware of the beginning signs. Next time I will pick just 2 strains. As of right now I will be harvesting for a month because of the varying flower period but it will keep me busy...Thx again for responding

Sounds like you have a good handle on it, by the time you get my age you'll be growing the one toke stuff. When I was your age we had a choice between Mexican, Columbian and hash oil, all were good! Didn't last very long but we had allot of it!

Welcome, and nice grow ! my two cents far as the hoppers is find them and remove them. I would pull those weeds unless your using them to blend in with your grow. They could take from the soil what your grow needs.

Hey my name is richard... New to this forum and growing! Super stoked to live learn and love with this venture... I have 28 plants in the first stages of flowering... I live in socal and it's been 100 everyday but the girls are thriving... I have used my knowledge of science and researching daily... I have a severe seizure disorder and this helps prolong my seizures it's great! So I can't work and take care of the ladies constantly... I planted may 10th so they just hit 4 months... I ha them on LED lights to extend growing season a bit it also pulled my clones out of flower when I got them.. Never buying clones again lol... I have fire OG Jack Herer white berry big bud OG dj shorts blueberry cataract kush and green crack... I started them on general hydroponics nutrients from the beginning but I just switched on vf-11 nutrients and they work great... I am also building a two story grow in our 6000 sqft shop... The grow will be 1000 sqft structure within.. It will be fully enclosed bottom floor for veg. Top floor for flower.. I will have wall to wall mirrors to reflect and make the space look bigger... I will tile it with the wood looking tile... All plants will be on a drip system and the rooms will be climate controlled with co2 tanks as well. The outer edge of the 24 hour room will contain mother plants and clones and seedlings... I will use the see of green method to harvest 4 times per year... Misters will top the plants and keep humidity high. But not too high... Across on the other side of the shop will be a one story 800sqft structure that will contain a beautiful kitchen FYI my friend is an architect and it will look clean and moder... the kitchen will be used for edibles... A huge table will be used for trimming and other things.. A lounge with a TV and smoking area will be there as well... A closet with all electrical components another room for storage And enclose climate controlled room with plants I am breeding... Keeping the breeding plants completely away from my other grow room... So yah I've been busy... Here are some pictures of my first outdoor grow! One cataract kush is over six feet tall from the ground... So glad science is on my side...View attachment 3248766View attachment 3248767 View attachment 3248766 View attachment 3248766

If you are working with clones then you already know the sex. Most strains can go straight to 12/12 from clone or seed, the clones will start to flower sooner than a seed start.

Great info, and he was speaking of a fem plant. I was thinking of unknown seed sex and taking clones to force to flower to learn the sex.

hello to all... new guy here. relatively new to growing. i had some reg seeds goin a few times, but never grew any to its full maturity yet. had to move, plus a bit nevous. but i finally got my first ever order of "good" seed from attitude seed bank. i ordered mostly autoflower strains. such as northern lights, auto cherry bomb, and auto acid. the freebies they sent are some amazing photoperiod strains, and all fem seeds. guess they were making up for the two shipments that were seized. but they finally got here. anyways. just wanted to properly introduce myself. cant wait to pop these babies :). but i was gifted a clone of some thunder bud #1. shes lookin' awesome.prolly gonna switch to 12/12 to flower her starting this friday. one of my beans was lookin like i needed to pop it soon so its germin right now. not sure i want to grow it in 12/12 cause its an auto but i dont have room in my grow space for more than two MAYBE, might as well try it once but id rather do 18/6 light cycle. might build a new light and grow box and keep em seperated. anyways sorry bout the rambling. peace and love. and happy farming (~);]

Don't over water and make sure they are ph balanced you'll need to test water supply. find s good nutrient such as general hydroponics I use vf11 for all stages and it's great for hydroponics... Do tons of research Google is amazing... Look up cropping techniques and fimming it's all grower preference hope this helps

Hi all,
I've recently got back into buying seeds and should hopefully be growing again end of the month. I had to stop for two years, so i have not be paying any attention to what's been going on. Was really surprised when i went to log into my old account @ seed depot and discovered it gone, and everyone I was friends with at icmag has either left or been banned, it all made for some interesting reading though.
Anyway, hopefully gonna make this place my home now and get chatting with all you seed junkies and see what I've missed out on.

thanks
