I found this out too, it really is so simple so why make things complexK.I.S.S. (KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID)
This is what i have found out about gardening.
apparently , the average person should take 20 hours or so to learn to drive a car
it should only take about 2 hours of lessons/knowledge to grow weed proficiently imo
keep repeating what works, cut out anything from the system you find to be unnecessary

I learned my first grow that old dead leaves spread PM. Dont be lazy and stash a few between planters to open up later and mess up all your flowers.
I am learning this grow that some bugs are good. Most bugs I have ever had in a pot of soil and the whites fastest growing roots too. Not talking spider mites.
I learned that spider mites are the devil.
I learned that learning together on a forum can be tricky when everyone is throwing in their 2 cents. Pick one bad ass farmer and learn from them.

Definitly watch out for spraying bleach or cologne anywhere near your intake. Air quality is as important as water quality.

it was a good day when, i realized that i could get as much yield out a 3 gallon pot as a 5 gallon (only 60 days in the larger pots). that's a whole lot of soil i didn't have to purchase and throw away.
i also learned, several times, that for one reason or other, you may lose most or all of your crop.
which is why i keep a lot of roach pot around. just in case.
oh, and trimming is a bunch of fun for about 10 mins. then it sucks.
and don't rub your eyes when your hands are sticky!

I'd die if I lost a whole crop. Dont say that.it was a good day when, i realized that i could get as much yield out a 3 gallon pot as a 5 gallon (only 60 days in the larger pots). that's a whole lot of soil i didn't have to purchase and throw away.

three times i lost the whole shabang.
twice because of fuck ups and once because something odd happened (ex gf said something that made me nervous) and i pulled them up and moved.
the more people you tell, the more people who have you buy the throat.

I love this Thread,
Hi RIU,
i found out on my own about plant manipulation, tying down branches, LST, Super Cropping.
When it comes to Super Cropping I have a technique that I hav not seen discussed with my little twist.
So Im a Noob, when the branches grow up and then sprout further branches at leaf junctions.
Always on the inside and outside of the branch, when you tie them down one small branch has the advantage of being on top while the other is on the bottom and grows slower because it get covered by surrounding foliage.
So her is the trick, probably 25 years old but it was my morning epiphany.
I wait till almost an Inch of stem is under a set of leaves on a horizontal branch and I pinch hard and twist 45 degrees and pinch again.
This put those small shoots even with each other, to the left and right rather than front to back.
Seems to make a much more balanced canopy.
a pic or two to show my trick

to counter that: ph isn't that important if you are growing in a good soil mix and have decent water. never ph'd once in my life and my plants come out fine. then again I don't grow hydroponically.
No shit that girl in the profile pic has an incredible ass

I have learned that an hour in the greenroom is equal to 5 hours in the real world! 
I have learned that I am still learning.
I have learned that 99% of what you read is WRONG!!!!
I have learned that there are a select few who should be listened to (see last comment).
And most importantly, I have learned that growing my plants is the best stress reducer I have ever had. They don't argue, yell or bitch and love the same music I do....

I've learned more from my own experiences than I ever have from some book. Although I have read many books on growing.

I've learned I much prefer racing home to see my girls than I ever did with my ex.
I've learned never to display stress in the grow room.
I've learned that making hash is simple and cost effective.
I've learned on oz of hash takes up less room than an oz of bud in my suitcase.
I've learned alot from del6666 and supchaka just from reading their threads.
I've learned to sleep with with the lights shining through louvered doors.
I've learned simple is better. Good soil and good teas are all you need.
I've learned that getting intimate with your own strain is more rewarding than scoring expensive beans.
I've learned than I can re-use my exhausted heated air to offset my heating bill.
I've learned carbon filters are the shit.
I've learned I know more about female plants than I'll ever know about female humans.
I've learned I like eating both ^^^^^^^ alot.
I've learned that I am anticipating retirement more now than I ever did ( and I was doing some major anticipating ).

I've learned not to be a slave to checking ph... Once you are dialed in you should be able to relax a bit
I've learned that you need to learn to make hash or oil concentrates to avoid dipping into your premium bud & allow a long enough cure on them... That way when the oil/hash runs out you should have all your best bud ready & cured to perfection
I've learned that tap water can safely go straight into my res without leeching... Contrary to what others told me
I've learned that even lo grade hash cookies can get you really baked
Ive learned that vaping concentrates is my favorite method of medicating with cannabis
Ive learned that there are several RIU members here that know really their shit... Yet there are others who just troll for sheer entertainment
I've learned that this shit is fucking addictive.... Growing weed & making concentrates is all I ever think about; to the point that it's actually pissing off my ol lady
