More addicting than smoking!?

smokefacekillah · Sep 27, 2015

Has anyone else Found that growing is way more addicting than smoking could ever be? I find my self wishing I could start a new grow like every other week, If i had my way to be honest my house would be filled with tents and just clones everywhere

I guess it depends on what you are smoking.

Depends on the gear you THINK you have to have.
A good percentage of my addiction pertains to buying the hottest new gear.
Im pretty sure after labor and damage to the house from growing I could buy the fucking weed cheaper but that takes a good portion of the fun away.

Growing to me is FAR more addicting. Ive been doing this for YEARS and it never gets old. Ive grown every way you can.think of. Aero, dwc, rdwc, nft, drip, ebb and flo, coco, rockwool, recovery, non recovery, halides, sodiums, floros, indoor, outdoor, greenhouse...you name it. It never gets old. I read all the books. All the trade mags. Used to try every nute and supplement out there. New fans. Trimmers (yuck), warehouses, basements. Wow. Ive grown hundreds of strains. Taken thousands of cuttings. Trimmed ALOT of fukin buds. It never gets old for me. And iam still learning. What does get old is the "mine or way is best" crowd that dont know jack shit about humility or growing.

Ohh Naw I'm a DIY-er man, I'm Mexican bro we don't buy nothing we can just build ourselves ! My addiction pertains to me wanting to just grow more of different strain's, dreaming of crosses you think might be good Like A Stronger kush crossed with mexican brick weed, or dress window shopping seeeds!

To the point I automatically buy 6500K CFL every time I find them to veg seedlings with. It's addictive as hell.

I've been growing along time also. Since around '91 like yourself. (Longer if you count my closet at my moms house, and plants down at the creek :-D

i'm 42. pretty much done/do it all also :-)

NorCal in the house.
But I don't know how you aren't just flat out bumbed when you trim. I pay to get my shit trimmed. Other than that, it's a lovely hobby.

lol growing is worse then smoking bcuss it takes ten minutes to smoke and your fine it takes a few months to grow... its very time consuming im new so im spending all my free time reading and looking at journals and experimenting and investing...

harley i had a blow out on 4 of my 8u 250w cfl tubles in my flower room ... thats the second one in that room my plants are drooping in the front farthest away from the light... that is 100% failure on all of my horticulture 250w 8us in three months...i just ordered a 1000w hps will be here in three days.... is that an overkill for a 4x4x6 room with 8 plants im gonna of course add another 6 inch exaust fan ....

No way it's over kill. Always buy the biggest you can with lights. The optimal setup is a 1000-watt dimmable rig.

since1991 · Sep 27, 2015

Oh yeah. Trimming sucks. Never did like it. I got friends that do most of it. And iam more than glad to pay them and feed them while doing it. I even get my mom in there every once in a run or 5. Lol

daloudpack · Sep 27, 2015

that will be 2x 6 inch exhaust 1 6 inch intake , 12 isocillating fan between lights and plants , in a 4x4x6 room , flat white paint 1000w hps , plents of cfls for side lighting if i need them

daloudpack · Sep 27, 2015

only downside is my 1000w isnt a cool tube or have a cooled hood its a regular bat wing style reflector

smokefacekillah · Sep 27, 2015

Ohhh I forgot the trimming UGHHH FUCK TRIMMING !, It's the most tedious thing about growing, But it's also strain dependent, the two strains I grow are my proof, I have one where the colas are damn near on top of eachother, an my Royal kush Which growers the perfect nuggets in my opinion, but I always feel like I'm trimming to much of the sugar leafs off

smokefacekillah · Sep 27, 2015

another Thing I do is creep on the marijuana plant problems section, I just like the familiarize myself with What all sorts of problems look like, Just by looking at other plants, I kinda lowkey like looking at fucked up plants more than I do looking at other grows going good

Indacouch · Sep 27, 2015

Growing is my favorite part I'd be bored as fuck if I wasn't growing ......and probably doing something else I'm really not suppose to be doing .....trimming is hella fun for the first four minutes lol.......

vitamin_green_inc · Sep 27, 2015

Yeah, and when it's 20 a g here, it's impossible to not grow and stay medicated. Even if you spend a couple thousand though, you can have your payback in less than 6 months - a year
