Thanks for the add....i used to grow years ago and just now back in the game...i thought i knew how to grow....things have changed hu...thanks..

new to the grow game, lost my job and career due to a random drug screen at work and looking to dive in head first as my new career. mj is a wonderful plant that has so many uses and now i'm devoting myself to it. plus, it seems like most people who are into mj are just much better people. thanks for having a great community as i've been a bit of a lurker up to now because of my previous job. roll 'em if you got 'em.

whatz crackin riu. following my bro tank on this thread and looked cool so I signed up 4 myself.

Hello everyone. I currently have a small grow going, 1 Trainwreck, 1 Lemon Kush Headband. I'm going to attempt my first ScroG with the currently 6 node LKH once it has some height to it. They are currently under T5s but I'm moving them to 315W CDL for flower. These are soil grows which I do almost exclusively following The Rev's True LIving Organics book. Once I get the feel of the site, I'll get some pictures posted if anything impressive looking happens.

Ok I'm brand new to this I bought a 4x8 tent, running 2 LECs an 6 plants in 10 gallon pots with fox farm super soil. I wanna add another light to increase light. What do people think?

I was SunKeeper.

Now I am not.

I just recently joined and am learning alot from this forum. Now if we could just get the laws changed. So everyone can benefit from this wealth of information. However I don't think that is going to happen anytime soon. Sob

unfortunately, being awake was never meant for the masses. welcome and soak up that knowledge.

welcome to RIU

Bitter sweet being a newb, especially when you get a bit older. You feel young again, like a freshmen, but deep down you know you're still the old man across the street drinking Old Milwaukee.

As far as in the USA, we need to create a joint commission and propose this to the the gov. as a compliance and regulations commission for banks to follow. Then boom, it's legal, and FDIC, NCUA, OCC, and Fed. Reserve will finally be able to "start making money legally" in the cannabis industry, and business owners won't have to stack their money in back yard vaults. Just some food for thought. I call it operation shoe horn...told you I'm old.

Hi i havent posted on here in months due to me battling my cancer. Never really posted on here but im in need of some help . I didnt keep track of the week its on in flowering. Had too much going on, but how do they look based on the pic? They sprouted on the 28th of January & I vegged for about 2 months and a half. Dont want to chop her down if she aint ready so that's what brings me here today pretty much. Want my hard work & time to pay off. Only using about 100 watts of CFLs, i know its not much but this grow is just for personal use. I prefer quality over quantity for now... Thanks guys!

Hola hola ) I'm from the UK. Setting up to grow for the first time So I'm learning ahaha. Just bought a grow tent, 125w CFL duel spectrum light, bio biz light mix soil, and clonex rooting tonic/hormones. I know I'm probably gonna need more light if not definitely. As for fertiliser, I've been told to just use miracle grow and see how it goes...so I've order the water soluble one for tomatoes... I don't know if I need to buy the flowering one too for flowering stage >< I was just planning to grow ONE feminised strawberry cake seed, germinate it, plant it, and literally just learn from trial and error. If anyone has any tips that might help save me a few pennies that would be great...also I haven't a clue how to use this site properly so excuse me ahaha

What's up everyone, first time patient lol.

Hi guys, im preparing for my very first grow in a spacebucket (as i dont have much space and it would be very stealthy), so ive decided to join your community to share my progress with other colleagues and maybe find some answers to stupid newbie questions Already did my first purchase of buckets

Well...I have copied and pasted this so many times in individual threads that it is becoming annoying. So, henceforth I will only use it in this Newbie Welcome forum...

Welcome to RIU, and the wonderful world of cultivating the world's most misunderstood and feared medicines!!!

The only 'advice' I can give you or anyone is to read and learn and then apply what you have read and learned to your garden and you cannot fail. Anyways, remember the search tool is your friend...Lots of folks here willing to help a new farmer get up and growing. But at the end of the day your grow will be only as good as the knowledge and work you put into it.

It is always great to ask questions but do not take anyone's advice or opinions and follow blindly. And remember anyone may have a well-known member status…but that means they have posted and responded to many threads and does not always mean well-educated growerz. Do your own research, you will be much happier knowing you have done it for yourself and by yourself. The first buzz you get from your own budz...is by far the BEST high you will ever have!

Do a search using your current question as the keyword(s) and ZOOOM!! Like Wonka's Great Glass Elevator…off you go to tons of threads answering all your questions. Read all the Newbie Central stickies and learn…

Soaking up all that information and sifting through it, is going to take time. You will likely finish your first grow by then. Viola! grow complete and education well under way.

Hi guys/girls! I'm new around here. I hope to learn much information here and i'll surely share what i have in mind that can banefit this community! I have a feminized Ketama from World Of Seeds grow in the making (only 1 plant in a 2x2x5 tent) and i'm near day 20 of veg. Trying to mainline it but i'm encountering some problems... I've posted a pic of it in this thread. Check it out if you're curious...
