Hi Metalback, I have not decided yet. I want a good yielding, and easy to grow plant/s with good medicinal properties. I am going to grow auto-flowers in soil, that much I do know! Thinking a white widow strain perhaps?

Myself, I wouldn't worry about autoflower. I've found it very easy to into flower. Another reason I wouldn't is there are conditions as a first grower where you can stunt growths, light too far away, over watering a variety of reasons. With just feminized seeds you can give them more time, or less if you're looking for smaller plants. Flowering stage is real simple to start. Most plants that have good medicinal properties are going to be lower in THC. Nirvana has an CBD Lemon OG. It comes in at 5.8% CBD and 5.4%THC. They also have a Durban CBD where both CDB and THC come in at 8%. I've read the ideal is 1:1 ratio CDB and THC. Lastly they have a CDB Kush with 9.5% both CDB abd THC. It would also matter what medical ailment you are working with. Don't feel you need to say!! If it's pain, for the first grow Papaya is very easy, and the Strawberry Kush grows itself, it's compact, and very prolific. Papaya is the same, stays compact but I've read to give it a couple extra weeks in veg. Both of those have low odor. I almost forgot Bubblicious, it fits in with these two. They run 17% THC. Just start with two plants, learn how to top them, then start another two and apply everything you're learning to them. But, grow what you really want!! Check out the Nirvana seed site, and ILGM seeds. Great reputations but Nirvana allows you to filter what you want, like Beginner seeds, Medicinal, Height, etc.... ILGM does that but not quite as good as Nirvana's. Just remember any skunk is going to be very, very aromatic. It will take over your whole house. I just looked up feminized white widow and it sounds good. I'm gonna try that and Bubblicious next time. Hey, keep in touch, I took pictures everytime I did something to the plants and I'll be happy to help you not make my mistakes!! Most important thing is PH. Keep it low 6's, very important. When your set up send a pic, your setup can't be crazier than mine!! LOL

None of this is for me, I do not partake. For hubby, he likes to smoke, but also for his PTSD and epilepsy from a head trauma, so want both medicinal and medicinal/recreational combo, I guess you could say....He suffers from the head trauma, 2 sleep disorders and migraines!

This is a Strawberry Kush just beginning to bud. All those nice light colored buds have turned into colas. I cropped her twice, and the plant is roughly 30" tall now. You see the brown edges on a few leaves? That was nute burn. My ph was 7.5.

WOW, beautiful plant. I was thinking autoflower because some of them finish so quick, and I need a quick first grow!

I also thought that I could not screw it up as much for a plant that is done in 60 to 65 days

Give them a try. I will at some point. From my expected mistakes it was nice to have the option of giving a little more time vegging. Maybe even try both and see how it goes.

Actually I think just the feminized seeds are more forgiving. You choose when your plant goes into budding. I've seen some people spend as little as 4 weeks in vegging.
Here is a website that will give you the best CBD strains. These have as high as 54% CBD. Two other things to think about. It is better served in Cannabinoid oil for serious conditions, but until you get comfortable enough to make your own C oil, smoking will do. But get a decent vaporizer, with a balloon. It will be much easier for your hubby in the long run. https://www.leafly.com/news/strains/what-cannabis-strains-are-high-in-cbd What LED light do you have, and the watts?

Any time. Email if you need to, I'll step you through anything. I'm on disability myself, 9 screws and 2 rods, 2 major back surgeries. I'm allergic to opiates and I started for pain relief. Pot is so much better for pain than any prescription drug. And I have been studying everything I can find on growing. night

Hey everyone! New to the forums, although I've been lurking for a bit. I live in Colorado, so it's been pretty easy to start sourcing the materials I've needed and to set up my indoor grow. This is my first MJ grow ever, although I have a bit of gardening and indoor plant experience. Here are some details of what I'm doing:

- 3'x3' homemade mylar tent with open air
- LEC315 3100K flowering lamp
- Organic soil in smart pots

I started with some mystery seeds, and I'm on Day 30 of flowering. The buds are starting to increase in size pretty rapidly. I've been trying to err on the side of "less is more" with soil nutrients, although I still think that I may have an overdose of Nitrogen ( https://www.rollitup.org/t/claw-leaf-how-do-i-remedy-suspect-n-overdose.913556/ )

So I'm just working out some of the kinks with my balance of nutrients, and also water PPM/PH. Overall things are going really well though, and the plants look pretty happy!

Jumpin into it!
I transplanted 4 monster Jager plants, and 3 half the size, a week ago into there final home; 200 gallon smart part, with 150$ a yard soil, a mana mix core, and michrohizae'd that sexy rootball. First drench was with SLF and roots excelerateor. Temps got up into the 90's but we beat it with shade cloth. Everything in the garden looks killer; from P-98, to Platnium cookies. Best are the blueberry trainwrecks. But after a week the inner leafs on the big Jagers are still a little droopy. Tops crowning out though. Anybody have trouble with transplanting large plants??
