Well actually Ive been growing on and off for almost 40 years now, indoors and outdoors, guerilla style as well as backyard.
I started to grow indoor with HPS in the old days (before grow shops!) but called it quits when kids where in the house. and now recently a very happy converted LED grower.
I tested consumer LED bulbs for autos indoor a few years ago, and was already convinced, but recent developments leave HPS far behind as far as umol/J ratings.
So now I got myself a 300 W LED, a tent and started some seeds to veg a while in a small pot to later transplant them to big smart pots in living soil fashion. I am planning a no till/slow fill sustainable grow.
The backyard garden has seen enough potting soil so I aim to at least reuse my indoor soil.
Tips are appreciated from experienced indoor no-tillers!
You might consider me an oldtimer from the Netherlands... The past 20 years the growing here has been only outside occasionally, just for the heck of seeing our beauties grow and smell the stink...
I just started a new small indoor grow to beat the wet weather weed we are used to from outside here locally, I decided it's time for growing some premium bud!
Where I live there are over 12 coffeeshops, so choice has never been a problem here for over 30 years now, but the prices are ridiculous...
seedling out...
