Hey I'm new here and new to this. We're in the u.k
Me and my partner are sick of paying for weed and normally it's the dreaded Albanian stardawg bullsh*t!
So here we are. I'm doing my first grow and I would like help as I go from my like minded community of growers.
So any help along the way would be much appreciated. I will post pics and provide as much details as possible as I go. Thanks guys. I look forward to the end result! Fingers crossed. And also fingers crossed the u.k finally legalizes this like the rest of the world lol

They will all get scrogged. I'm also going to do different training on each strain. Ie, topping. Bending. Supercropping and probably fim. We'll see how we get on

Hey mate. We'll I'm guma train them all differently I think, have a go with different techniques. Bur they'll all finish under a simple white plastic finer scrog for filling then an elastic brand for lean/weight. I'm looking forward to this one and just the mixed strain. Defo in for a challenge I think lol. That's what you get for letting the misses pick some too lol

What's good growmees!! So I'm 4 days from sprouting. Iv fed water once. Gotta get the rest of my supplies sorted this week. They're looking stretchy but I'm not bothered. I'm guna leave them in their starter pots until I'm ready to put them onto veg under their 600w air cooled hood. Ready for their 3 gal/10liter fabric pots and their first feed:hump:. And I'll update on which training they will receive. Any tips and advice would be greatly appreciated people

Cheers bro. That'll be the ocd keeping me in check :!: lol. Do you not post much mush?
Ive not posted much here yet. I've been away for years and just getting back into the game. Looks like ya got all the tools ya need. Keep it simple your first time. It can be overwhelming for some. Success is what ya seek..the first time. Make a plan and stick with it. Tweak it as ya go. Keep reading everything.

I get the OCD behavior..lol It's a benefit for a grower in some ways. Never a dead leaf on the tent floor...ever..lol. All shits gotta line up too with proper labels an all that. Nah, I'm not that bad but I've seen some that go all out. Fun stuff. Whatever makes their grass grow greener. It's all good.

Trainwreck can be leggy. She has the genes for it. If your concerned about height there's a few options. Lst, hst, super cropping. Plenty of info out there on these subjects. I train plants. I NEVER top plants.

Hey bro, yh the thing with me at the minute and watching all these videos n tutorials. They all do somert different. So I'll be reading away I bed m then I'll be up in the tent adjusting this n that ( cuz the stretch stress) lol. But yhiv changed up and hopefully this routine helps. Everything in order mate and iv just got to buy the last bit of stuff tomorrow. I'll show a pic of the whole tiny room haha! It's all good. But yh I'm going steady. There's so much time in a day n I don't wanna stress n ruin shit In 5 minutes. I'm guna top 1 and train the rest. Like I said at start. They will all receive something. But I'm going on the plant stature and assess as I go. Il no doubt seek ur advice. I don't wanna pester. If I can't do it alone then I'm not destined. Me and the wife to b ate learning together. Much love to you pal

Defo appreciated it anyway well um guna leave em a few days to recover then I'll update again

I find its best to wait to see how the plant grows before you decide how your gonna train it. Every time i plan a training method at sprout it turns out i picked wrong. I scroged a cali dream and it turned out to be to ridgid and woody had to take the net down to prevent it from ripping itself apart with the net. Plain to do 3 tops on a LA confidential to normal plan to get 8 top colas spread out, wound up with a tangled mess of vines covered it tiny rabbit pellet buds not worth the effort of trimming
I got nothing against topping. It's a good method. I just choose not to do it. I'm usually outside the norm with my grows but it works for me. I keep it as simple as possible.
I top when i got a tall plant with poor nod spacing. I find those tall girls that dont like to put on many branches bush out nicely after a toping.
Supercropping is best used as a last resort when you got a girl who over streches your space in early flower. I would never use it as a planned training method

I kinda throw the kitchen sink at them usually. I combine monster and super cropping with a bit of lst and hst. Then add a screen. I use a clone taken in flower and regenerated.
These are in need of thinning out underneath. Ive let them go a few days.
