bongsmilie "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. Are there really people out there that enjoy tearing people down.....I am beginning to wonder if this site is here to help or ridicule people that post. You might better get use to the fact there are gonna be noobs, that don't search the forum b4 posting, it is gonna happen, don't get mad......that is what they made cut and paste.... Don't sweat the small stuff, life is tooooo short....:hug::weed: Mayb I am too nieve, and a bit hopeful, what else is there, they have taken everything else away from me...... I just think the can't have my heart, mind,or soul.....:peace:

i agree with you blazin. there has been some unnecessary negative vibes lately. if you are using sarcasm, please learn how to properly incorporate it in your post. i have no shame is using my ignore list, thus far i haven't had to use it, but it may become nessesary.

we need sub fourms.

Things like..

Lighting.. Nutes.. Plant Problems.. the 3 stages of growth Seed/Veg/Flower Hydro / Soil / Soil-less.. Growing inside/outside ect

The list could go on but I know you couldnt have to many but just enough so when you have a question it would be alot quicker to find a answer then maybe it would stop alot of repeat questions

Could also have a few stickys on each sub fourm saying
exp lighting < what types of light are there to veg /flower with
How far from plant at each stage should a light be
What watt is best ect


This would stop a lot of flameing and would make people search more as i my self would just ask a question instead of looking for it even tho i know it has been asked before..!

i agree with you bigbud. there should be some more sub forums. i personally don't think the grow journals are referenced as much as they should be. they contain real life scenarios with real life results. nothing could be better.

And the teachers in school would have an easier job if the just gave you the test and the answers all at once. Problem is you wouldn't remember it and you wouldn't have any idea where to look for the answers.

I have used the search forum to find answer but it very rarely gives me what Im looking for. You have to search threw 50 threads to find something close to your question. For example you punch in best cfls You get every thread that has that word in it. I can understand why people keep asking the same questions. 101 questions for newbies should be posted somewhere so newbies can see it. I like BigBuds idea break it down to more sub forms

i just wonder why people will spend 100s of $s on their set-up but won't put out $24.95 for a grow book that will answer every question. you put it on the shelf in your grow room. done.

Well, there is a start to the 101 questions in a sticky in the Newbie Central forum. I keep adding to it as I have to research my own questions.

some people really don't like or don't trust books. usually because some people were complete dicks to them when they were kids or because they're dyslexic and don't know it.

I mean, I get you. I love books. But some people prefer video and some people want you to call them and help them shop at the hydro shop and SOME people want the bud to magically appear in their bowls pre packed and de-seeded.

Not sure where to draw the line, personally.

In my case I enjoy the interaction of a forum. I sense of community and being about to explore ideas and ways of growing more dynamic than I can get in a book.

i find a lot of books tend to contradict each other. ended up buying as many as i could then tried to find some common ground. a lot of books are based on OPINIONS. i've never even watched a grow video. sounds interesting.

I don't care how many stickys, sub forums, faq's you have newbies are just going to post their questions becaues it is the easiest thing to do. They hate to read. If you post a link most won't read it. They want a answer to their question NOW. This is not going to stop. We have to be patient and just accept the fact that we are going to have to repost the same stuff over and over. Hey we were newbies once and someone was kind enough to help us!

I do think we should have more sub forums. Also, these young kids that shouldn't even be on this site are always going to be around asking questions when the answers are right in front of them. There KIDS. Happy growing.

well, I'm not opposed to sub-forums. but the main advantage of that would be putting some relevant stickies at the top of each forum.

Another thing that I think we need to do is to start running our own versions or mirrors of posts from other forums. I constantly link to other forums when helping others. It would be nice if we had a section of HOWTOs. Examples would be:

a) How to make your own carbon scrubber
b) How to tell if your trichomes are ready(found a nice article at http://www.drugs-forum.com/growfaq/1529.htm)....but it would be best if we had copies/our own versions of these sorts of posts. Because we never know when one of those websites is going to go out of business/be shut down.
