My first grow will be in soil, below is a list of the information I have been reading. Let me know if I missed anything that I do need to read. This is across the internets, first 50 pages of google general search, and then first 30 pages of several forums inluding RIU, in the google site search. Thanks RIU, I don't need full explanations just give me a subject and I will gladly do all the leg work.

Growing Mediums
  • Soils/Soilless- Subcools, Vics, DIY soils, different amendments and what benefits they offer, alternative media


  • Hydro/Aero ponics- DWC, EBB, Aero, and RDWC

Plants
  • General Grow guides from everywhere- How to, Training, sanitation and extermination, harvest and curing, basics


  • Plant problem sub forums and posts across the net- Temps, Nutes, Lighting, Rh and airflow, +/- watering. How to maintain health, correct issues.


  • Mycorrhizae- Loads of information on this subject. Endo, Ecto, Eric, and Dex. The effects of Myco and Heavy Metals.


  • Plant Nutrients- Organics/Synthetics



Equipment/Supplements/Misc


  • Lighting- MH/HPS, Induction, Led, and CFL's-660nm Hash tips(Still trying to understand this one)


  • CO2 Enrichment


  • Grow Room Design- Light spacing, reflective surfacing, filtering


  • Temps and Airflow Intake/Exhaust/Circulation (See lots of ? on this: Google Air Formulas and Start reading)


Thats all I can think of at the moment, enjoying the learning journey. Thanks RIU for all help provided. Will provide sources of information if anyone needs it.

Spider mites, and other pests / animals that are prone to attacking or in some way fucking marijuana up, and how to deter them from your garden.
Flies and gnats are also annoying, not so much dangerous, but annoying.

Other than that, just try to control your frustrations. lol

I'll be patient, I read plenty about pests, already picked up some Ghost Chiles for the mites :0 , maybe to laugh at idiot friends who try them. Though I'm going to try to avoid ever getting the pests, best way imo.
