Please tell good times and bad but the one thing I'm serious about is ph


In veg u can be down right mean and butcher and abuse them but in flower we have to be nice

Tell your story smoke and let the words flow please

I drink, half the time I go in half cut and once I start pull leaves and pinching and topping I can't help myself but as long as I kind in flower everything works out

Please tell your stories so the new grower can calm down

I clean every leaf every night with soap. I detoxify the space twice a week. I use insecticides once a week. When I cut to make clones I cut far enough away from the plant too avoid infection. When I spray I do my best not to let the water hit the HPS bulb or it will explode and possibly cause a fire, I worry about fire a lot, about the police a lot, Growing is serious, smoking is serious, even giving away a little bit of cannabis oil will give you the death sentence!

A man is being hung because of a plant some guy decided was illegal, what a world we live in...

And that's some routine, its a wonder I dont have beggers and gypsies in my grow room when you compare my cleanliness to yours! :)

Basic ramble I was driving home from work trying to YouTube something to listen and drive but anything I turned was so controling and clinical.

I like the follow some rules likefeed chart and rough temps and try to stay somewhere ok in the humidity and u know the temps swing from lights off and lights on but that's ....

Get your shit mostly sorted and keep growing

I'm rough in veg. Some people use scissor diped in alcohol

A tip I learn along the way is super thrive is golden use it all the time.
Epsom salts are nice to add in flower. I have a 220l res I drop a fist full in every refill
Don't believe a plant will die till it's proper dead. They will bounce back every time with a flush and a feed.
Clone gel expensive .alo works great. Your growing any way ??
I once was so pissed in the grow room and fell on a mother and broke the shit out of her. The up side was I had about 15 clones

Smoking in the grow room why not ??

The Malaysian Murder is outrageous, the UN should speak up on this matter for sure.

It think the clean guy might have a commercial grow going on.

Smoking in the grow room? Probably not good for your lights or filters. But bugs hate smoke. So IDK.

People have used raw honey for clone rooting.

I have used super thrive in the past but didn't this year. I used a couple Sprouted Seed teas made of alfalfa, purple corn, and barley. Then i got lazy and used Pure (The canned Mexican kind) Coconut Water.

I also used Aloe Vera (walmart liquid kind in the jug).

The new grower generally overcomplicates everything only to end up the polar opposite.

Just have patience and study the science of growing wilst yeilding below par and in abstract failure for a few years.

Eventually after all that shit you get to roll in mountains of primo dank but you still feel a little broken from the hard years before.

Hi my name is none of your business and im an addict :-)

Hi my name is addict and I'm none of your business!

I only started growing this year....
So much to read with so many different opinions on what works and what doesn't. Everybody has a different learning curve and some never learn.... Definitely started off over complicating everything because i wanted to do it right. Do your research and please go water your front yard or a plant or something if you have never touched a plant and want to take on growing marijuana.

I'm always harsh in veg, plants always bounce back with proper care.The most important person who can teach you is yourself, don't ever over stress

I used to fuss with ph and bottled bullshit and charts and schedules, and I used to care that some of the leaves looked ugly or mutated, and I used to care that other people's plants sometimes looked better than mine or that their setups were fancier.

fuck that noise.

10 years later and now I just mix up an organic soil, eyeball the amounts of shit I throw in, cook it for a month and that's it. I just dump water on those bitches until they're done. I don't give a fuck what brands my amendments or soils are, I haven't checked ph in years, I don't care about broken branches or any of the other bullshit that people freak out about and scream for help with 800 exclamation points. the shit grows wild for fucks sake.

chill the fuck out, people. it's supposed to be a fun hobby and a way to get a bunch of good cheap smoke, not a full time chore or a dick measuring contest. just learn along the way and do better next time.

so right..... I remember searching the net for the smallest discoloration in a leaf
I remember adding nutes and expecting some drastic change within the hour and checking on it every 15 min
I had to slow it down and relax nothing is perfect

did ten years go by that fast...…………….yep

Thank you all for adding to the tread I agree with everyone and everything.

Grow the herb is meant to be relaxing peaceful and not something to be stressful.
Shit happens u lose crops, u do dumb shit the list goes on and on I found the less fucks I give the better my grow turns out
I think age has a lot to do with it to

So to make logic of this.

Beat the shit out of your kids because they will still become adults.

Ok fuck logic. I like to water my bitch till she's hard. Actually that's kinda logical.

Growing is a hobby for me.

If I was making my living off of growing then I would be stressing 24/7.

I don't think that is what he said. I don't think children came up in this conversation. Don't beat your kids, but if they can walk, make them walk, don't carry them around every where in a damn stroller. It drives me nuts when i see obese 4 year olds, faces stuffed with candy, being pushed around in a stroller, by their fat parents at an amusement park..It boarders on child abuse.

It drives me nuts too, it's worse than buying a kid cigarettes. My sons football team lost one of it's best players who in the space of 2 years literally got too fat to run. Kinda crazy to think, millions of years worth of evolution reversed in 24 month.
