Greetings everyone. Another newbie on the block

Converted half a wardrobe into an interesting setup. Looking at getting into my first grow - just waiting on the little girl to pop and show herself. Good times ahead! looking forward to getting to know you all around the forums. Cheers

Hey there guys!
I am Zim.

Thought i'd put myself out there to meet and greet! I have just received my first Seeds of Lowryder which will be planted in the next couple of days, as my delivery of soil, fertilizer, planting pots and loads of other stuff -might've- gotten delayed, the phone call I received about the order was very.. well, hard to understand. so I have decided to wait to germinate my seeds until I know for sure that I have everything.

I've decided to record my Entire grow, total of 5 (Maybe 6) as I got a free seed in my delivery *yay*
As it is my first grow, I'm hoping for some tips and trix and hopefully guidance towards my pretties to live a short and prosperous life!

Anyways happy growing everyone, I'll be seeing you around!

//Zim

I am new to roll it up, looking to connect with other grows to improve my garden, I am a novice grower working in both hydro and soil, currently running humboldt nutrients, and a couple additives, I grow under hps and have about twenty strains, holding it down for AK.

I'm in my first grow with 6 generations going at this time. Like so many on here, I have many questions. By far most are answered here by you generous growers, thank you. I've learned much here, but being a newbie, I and many here still have stupid questions. Sometimes your first time through you do not understand some what is being told to us.
Yes you are correct

I am a newbie working my first grow. I have a stupid question that has been asked time, and time again. This pic is my second plant. I've been checking for sex for almost 2 weeks (Sorry, I switched to flowering stage 2 weeks ago). I don't know if I'm seeing a female, or just new leaves. Being my first time I haven't seen male or female for myself yet. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Ak, glad to hear from you here. I've been gaining a great deal of knowledge here and really appreciate it. I'm growing 15 plants at this time. This is my first time growing. You'd laugh if you saw my grow rooms!! LOL My large bedroom closet is my nursery, where veg and seeds are growing. My second bedroom closet is my flowering room!! LOL I covered both closets in mylar, 800 watt LED in flowering room, and 300 watt and another 800 in my nursery. Considering the space I'm using compact bushy genetics, like Strawberry Kush. I have been using Fox Farms with no complaints, yet. I want to try my hand at hydroponics, any advice or help with that would be most helpful. If there is anything I can help with, just let me know.

I've been lurking around on this site for a while now, good content, good people and shit so decided to join
But why is everyone growing mj seriously where i live it's a hell lot cheaper to just buy weed ???

Also riu you seem great pls dont turn out like gc and ban people for no apparent reason
Good weed is $300 an oz here. I'm disabled and grow my own instead of morphine. I grow in an apartment, both bedroom closets are green rooms. I have 12 plants growing in different stages. I grow in soil being a gardner. my main expense was lights. I've put out $350 for my lights, other miscellaneous expenses at no more than $600 total. Growing in the small area I've chosen compact bushy plants. In the first 3 plants in flowering I'm guessing at 2-3oz dried and cured. After the first 2 ozs, my grow is free ((I know, still need nutrients, soil etc....) But each grow after will take less than $40. That's why people grow. You could right this moment, clean a closet, if it isn't white walls, then tack up some mylar, or go cheap and buy a couple of those mylar rescue blankets at walmart for $2. Get your light (main expense) use old nursery buckets. most nursery's have the old black plastic buckets plants come in. Get 2-4 gal buckets and clean with water and a little bit of chlorine. Get a cutting from a friend, or seeds. You can buy seeds from places in Amsterdam. Depending on the genetics the cost could be 3-5 seeds for $30-$60. Order short plants, like a Strawberry Kush. They are short and very prolific budders. The last reason to grow your own is.....it's fun.

Hello my fellow MJ growers!

I'm new to this and here's my first grow. sorry for the quality, its from my phone and under a LED light.

Backstory:

I bought seeds online and grew them around March 2016 indoor. I dont know how many days it has been but so far so good. Initially, I started with 18 plants in a 3x3 tent thinking that would be sufficient. However, I later found out that I had grown too many plants! My thinking was that, maybe half of those might die or didn't grow at all during the seedling to vegetative state. As of now, I've removed 5 plants due to it growing too slow compared to the other plants - 2 removed after switching over to flowering since they never grew beyond their vegetative state (they were the weaklings of the bunch). 2 removed again, after putting on 12/12 for a few weeks. One didnt show any flowering while the remaining already started flowering. The other plant flowered, but was growing all messed up (the flowering and leaves were misshaped, showing very little budding progress). And finally, just couple of days ago, I removed another plant as it was flowering too slow(shown below in normal lighting).

Growing:

In terms of how i'm growing, I dont have a specific schedule or "scientific" method of growing them. I simply water with tap(my city has a decent water system <120PPM and average 8.0 - 9.0PH) and PH it down to ~6.5. I used flora micro/bloom/gro a few times, but was concerned about over nourishing the plant so I switched to just plain water using a 3x3 tent with a carbon filter and ventilator to absorb most of the stank in 3 gallon reusable pot. I'm also using 2 300W LED light, which I think is decent since they're growing healthy.

My Question to my fellow veterans is how I can make sure my plant will grow with decent amount of THC/CBD. Right now, 4 of the 13 plant show promising sign of decent yield and producing lots of tricomes. does this equate to higher THC content? The images I have upload are the "best" plants displaying thick budding and tricome except for the ones under normal lighting which is going to be trashed.

any advice or criticism would be appreciated.

Thanks for reading and Happy Growing!

We are growing in similar fashion. I got this from growweedeasy.com :
  • There is not much you can do to increase levels of CBD besides choosing a high-CBD strain

  • CBD is often naturally found in higher amounts in low-THC varieties of cannabis such as hemp, and is also often found in higher levels in auto-flowering strains which are derived from a type of wild hemp

  • In recent years, some high-THC strains have been particularly bred to also include higher levels of CBD
Sounds like you must get a strain that is high, nothing to do otherwise. CBN can be adjusted by havesting.

I recieved a mj plant from a friend, I transplanted it in a field next to the house for security reasons. This is my first plant, I need to know how much water and fertalizer to give it! First I planted it in good soil from my garden, then I've been giving it 1 Gallon of water/day and 1x a week I've been giving it multipurpose mericle grow. It seems to be doing ok! What do you think?
ive heard miricale grow is bad for mj
