I recieved a mj plant from a friend, I transplanted it in a field next to the house for security reasons. This is my first plant, I need to know how much water and fertalizer to give it! First I planted it in good soil from my garden, then I've been giving it 1 Gallon of water/day and 1x a week I've been giving it multipurpose mericle grow. It seems to be doing ok! What do you think?

A gallon of water a day seems quite excessive. You shouldn't water your plants until you stick your index finger into the dirt up to the second knuckle and it's dry. Remember, these are weeds! They do better with less water, not more. I am only on my third crop, but, even though I had good results with Miracle Gro, I am now a firm believer in organic nutrients!!!. The last two crops, I have used a tea made out of bat guano, seagull guano, and worm casings. I also use liquified seaweed and some magic stuff called "Super Thrive." (one drop to the gallon. The shit lasts forever!)

Newbie here
Writing this't for a friend, I don't know from squat.
My friend planted 20 WW in rock wool. fed them a mix of Hydrogen Peroxide
(10ml/gal), 5.5 ph and 30 ppm comps of a new RO unit.
These are the growth in 4 days.
4 plants just fell over at 3 days, my friend, just split the rockwool and stuck then back in.
He transplanted then on day 5 to Hydroton 10inch pots.
He got kind of cocky and fed them a cocktail.
The leaves turn yellow on the tps and up the edges about 1/3rd of the way.
Paniced and drained it and filled with sweet Ro water at 6ph and 30ppm.
I enclose a few pics.
He wants to know how long he should just feed them with water.
When should he start to feed them neutrients.
He uses Floranova grow floralicious + and has some Roots Excellerator
Thanks

As I said, I am just doing this for a friend as he does not have a computer

This is my first post here. I want to start by letting you all know that I started growing for medical reasons and not for profitting off my crop. I started my first crop on 4/20 with some Aurora Idica and Northern Light/Haze from the Nirvana seed company. (by the way, i'm a research nut and did my homework. nirvana is the BEST place to get seed, hands down.) I actually started three different strains, the last being seeds from some killer PK that came through this region. Well, after a couple months of trial and error I was left with basically one plant from each strain. After taking clones and flowering them, the only female was the Aurora Indica. After helping the males perform seppuku, the first cuttings are flowering and the second cuttings are getting off to a good start. I must give Mr.Green and his "I grow cronic" video credit for giving me the motivation to take this project on. (if that idiot can do it, then i MUST be able to do it.) I also would like to give a few pointers to others who are thinking of taking on a full organic hydroponic grow system. First, the more research you do, the better off you will be. Nothing beats experience, listen to those who have it. Second, starting out will set you back quite a bit, but there are a lot of ways to keep costs down. Stay away from LED lights (red and blue). They won't put out enough lumens really to vegitate and are worthless in the flowering stage, not worth the price. Buy good timers, the mechanical kind are much more reliable than digital but the digital offer more flexibility.

I will post some pics and a few other notes soon.

Well, I'll just say Hi at the mo....Have a look at GrowFAQ at the top left and just have a good read from there. Everything you need to know should be there, any problems then, start a thread and ask your questions. There's a lot of guys an gals on here who can then answer your questions or help, from their own personal experiences.
It's not gospel but, what they have done and what they are still doing.
Hey, if it works for them then, it'll work for you because, they certainly know a thing or two!

Happy growing!:blsmoke:
