Hello good people, new guy on the block here but not new to this marijuna. I was born in RI, was a teenager during the Summer of love and had a brand new 69 Chevelle 396 to cruise the town. I was one of those long hair pseudo hippies.

I've been in California the last 35 years. I helped a few growers with planting and trimming. Turned on some folks to the use of tapestry sissors for fast efficient trimming.

Now I'm living in RI old and worn out. My Medical Marijuna card was issued last month so now I'm looking to connect with a caregiver/grower and/or some seeds. I live in federal housing so I can't grow at home.

So if anyone out there can be a mentor please reply here or for a private conversation my e-mail is yomero2345 "at" yahoo........

Now I'm going to post my message in the RI tread.

Thanks :peace: bongsmilie

I incorrectly call the scissors tapestry, it should have been Weaver scissors. These scissors tuck in your palm so your hands are free. The link below show you a fancy pair. I'm not sure what happen to mine, I may have left them in a barn in Big Sur, CA.

My pair were much more narrow.

Believe it or not, I smoked pot only three times in the last 35 years.

I still haven't indulge since I got my Medical Marijuna card in November. I don't know anybody in the state (RI) since I

was gone for 40 years. So I know I'll get wrecked.


My plan is to get medical marijuna so I can stop with the opiates. 8)

Hey guys. So I am new to growing and what a journey its been! I'm on my second grow already! There is so much information out there one could be successful in growing quality ladies! Any advice is always appreciated please. I don't really have pictures yet but here is my setup: 5*3*3 tent ( home made from Panda Film and pvc 3/4 in ) 1000w air cooled hps ( decided to go only hps. Advice?) 1000w digital balast, Home made carbon filter ( ordered one but it is backordered ). I'm growing in organic potting soil and have not added any nutes yet. ( Again advice is needed here due to all the options..) My first grow was under cfl ( 5600 and 2600 through the whole grow) and I only yeilded 30g of Blue Mystic from an auto seed. It was an accomplishment considering I just went for it without research ( best to go balls to the wall with it imo.. Learning experience and all.). Right now I have 1 Blue Mystic auto, 1 Bubbas gift, 1 fruit punch, 1 short rider auto and 1 bag seed. The bagseed will be abused as my experimental seed to try cropping and such. I am a few days in and my ladies are all coming through. ANY ADVICE from anyone is nice! Nice to be amugst like minded people I can chat with.

FIRST POST EVER ...whats up everyone I'm just happy to be here with my people. I'm currently towards the end of my first grow,and I'm excited to share my experiences for the first time after lurking around this site for a few years. Here are a few pics of the plant just to get things started :bigjoint:

image.jpeg


Ok... Well I only managed to get one pic uploaded .. Apologizes around the house.

I would like to start a grow journal because I have a lot to share but I know this isn't the right place. Please point me in the right direction

UPDATE:
I have learned it takes profile building to be able to create a grow journal. I guess I've answered my own question. Anyway here are those other pics I couldn't upload the first time.. Theses were taken with an iPad so not the greatest quality but still shows pretty well.. Pics were a few days agoimage.jpegimage.jpeg image.jpeg

Yes this plant was grown 100% CFL including the cloning process. I vegged the plant with 4 23w 5500k cfls for about 41/2 weeks. Considering this was the only lighting used in veg I am plesantly surprised at the size of the plant. For flower i changed the 4 bulbs to 23w 2700k and added one 55w 2700k. After a few weeks of flower I added another 55w 2700k. I did purchase a 42w by mistake thinking it was a 55w so since I didn't have an extra lamp to use it with I removed one 23w from my setup and put the 42w in its place, total actual wattage is 221w for flower, which is equivalent to 850w incandescent and is just shy of 13,000 lumens. This is 7 weeks into flower and I ordered an magnifier and pocket scope today because I think she will be finishing up in the next few weeks ... Planning on taking it to day 63 so I will start flushing in about a week if the trichomes are where they need to be.

Yeah 13,000lm sounds cool for 1 plant - and your plant shows the light spectrum must be ok too :D

I really like how you described upgrading the system step by step too, that is definitely an advantage of going small-size CFLs. I'm currently thinking of making a veg shelf that will be housing an irregular amount of seedlings and young plants, and yes, I do think CFLs will be the best solution for my setup there.

Cheers and see you around! :bigjoint:

Yes cfls are definitely a great way to start growing for many reasons and not bad to keep around even when you become a seasoned grower for many more reasons.(to many to mention and I don't want to beat a dead horse) Although I am relatively inexperienced I would say cfls are great I will always use them in some way, and when your talking about growing in numbers the energy effiency cfls possess is unrivaled except by LEDs which could be another route that might work for you. Peace, good luck....and hope to see a post on your veg shelf.

I'm new here and I'm wondering should i start with mid grade or try my hand with the high quality , someone told me that growing mid grade and high grade is complete different formula , that which ever one i really wanted to do I should try first so I can learn it better ??

Never heard of this befor,
Although obviously if u go with a better breeder then phenotypes ( plants characteristics) are going to be more reliable!
IMO go for the best quality strain from the most trusted breeder u can find/ afford therefor that should give you a better start and easier first grow.
Good Luck And Happy Farmin

Well the quality of your smoke does have a lot to do with genetics but even bag seed can become high quality smoke if grown in the correct way. So asking if you should try to grow mids or highs all depends on what your willing and capable of putting into your grow...like most smokers I believe the answer would be you should grow to the best of your abilities rather than running a half-hearted grow ...hope this helps
