Hi guys, I have just joind the site, and looking forward to conversing with you hardcore smokers. I am just about to start my first grow and will be looking to sell also. In my experience most people dont know very much about weed and will just buy it regardless so i am looking to capitalize on this by ushering in a new era of quality/fair dealing whereby you get the full 8th or Q etc along with your aloted amount of crystals (not this flavorless stalky shit that always seems to be around)...... marry that with a consistantly quality strain of weed, this hopefully will secure me a large and loyal customer base. I have a question if anyone would feel obliged to answer, if you could grow any strain of weed what would you grow?, baring in mind as i will be selling i will be looking for a high yielding plant, from my research i have landed on cheese as a happy medium between potency and yield.... does anyone agree or disagree? also any tips for a first time indoor grower would be much appreciated............ and finaly just reading some comments about the legalization of weed in this country, i would just like to add to that, how can govenment say people can consume the drug of alcohol responsibly and legaly but not smoke responsibly? if there is such a thing as irresponsible smoking! just to hit that point home i am currently in my flat recovering from a kicking from three Geordies, was out last night in Newcastle and apparently i "Looked at this lads lass" the next ting i know im pissing with blood and out cold in a bar they had stamped all over my legs, body and head........now i take it with a pinch of salt now, that shit happens all the time in newcastle, im quite good at taking a kicking but if everyone in that bar was stoned are you tellin me that would have happened???

sorry to hear that youngP but like ya said that shit happens all the time unfortunatly!

cheese is always a good option for selling cause its so well known n loved, if you can get exodus cheese cuttings then i agree m8 go for the cheese you wont grow wrong there, if ya thinking bigbuddha cheese etc from seed then maybe not cheese?

first time commercial grow id go for something like skunk#1 or NL or even the 2 crossed think from ceres seedbank.

Sort of... the guy we usually buy ounces off of doesn't have any in and says he probably won't for up to 2 weeks and the guy we have recently begun getting 20 bags off of doesn't seem that keen on selling by the ounce... but I think we're gonna try to get him to sell us one. It's a college kid so he's never available during the day and it's pointless for us to sit there and buy 20 bags every day or every other when we go through one of those a day

Well we're just in the early stages of our first grow as well, so hopefully after that we can maintain our personal smoking with our grows, but I need something to last until then!

i use miracle grow soil from b&q; £10 for 2 x 50litre bags, biobizz nutes; biogrow and biobloom roughly £10 per litre each from any hydro shop on the net e.g greenshorticulture but if ur gaunna get the miracle gro soil u cant use nutes for the first 3 or 4 weeks cxoz the soils got slow release nutes in it, if u try and use any extra nutes you'll most likely fry ur plants. also buy perlite and vermiculite; about a fiver a bag. my mix ratio is 70% soil. 25% perlite , 5%vermiculite. never had any probs at all. and its all totally organic and a lotta people believe that makes for a cleaner more mellow smoke and u dont have to flush nutrients before u harvest.

like growww said b&q seed and cutting compost for the start off, think it mite have been me that recommended it to him. ur lil babies don need anythin else for the first couple of weeks( apart from a little water !). iusually give them around 3 weeks in that then move them into 10 litre pots with the miracle gro for around 4 to 5 weeks and then flower them. watch out for loads of expensive soils and nutes, most are just a waste of cash sold to u by fuckin snake oil salesmen. buy some tate and lyle treacle to feed in flower, its around 50p a tin and gives ur plants a nice sugar boost and if u can be arsed make urself a homemade co2 bottle with yeast and sugar, easy as fuck and helps the plants a bit. apart from that just watch ur plants and anticipate a cheap smoke, i worked out that my first grow gave me ounces for £26; set up cost £600 and i grew 23oz, and if u take into account uve still got all ur equipment left it really only cost £10 an oz to grow, thats a bit fuckin better than £160 to £200.....................if u use bird seed would u get a cheep smoke???

I got pulled over for speeding today and the Policeman told me I should have known better.

I said, "Yeah. But to be fair, I've had a lot to drink".

What do Harvey Price and HP sauce have in common?

Initials and colour.


How are they different?

HP sauce has a cap to stop it from dribbling.
