Welcome New Members!

I pushed 480 actual cfl and got a lil under a qp I probably could've let go for a full 12 weeks pure sativa only mistake not having indoor friendly plants cfls are good but lack density but smokes great good luck with the harvest its kind of of depressing when harvest is done until you start your next grow
My actual wattage is only 276. 12 bulbs with 1600 lumens each, 23 watts. Have you ever cloned? I heard that the quality lessens with each generation of clones. Is this true?

Hi Best People

who i am .. i'm a guy 31 years old from Syria ( where there is high scale of consuming the Lebanese hash ) i left my country 3 years ago because of the bloody war , i live now in one of the west European countries ... soon i will start going to the university to equalize my syrian diploma , Mathias is my nick name .

what i'm doing here ... i'm a hash smoker since 6 years but i tried smoking marijuana when i came to Europe and i like it more then hash because of the different felling and the local hash here is bad in the black market so i became a pot smoker , but Europe is expensive for a guy like me want to start his life from zero , so i thought maybe i can grow my own plant but i didn't know ANY thing about growing marijuana indoor or outdoor ...but any way i bought some seeds from Holland
and i didn't even thought about which strain to grow , so i chose amnesia and AK 47 and i tried one each , fortunately i have 6 hours daily of direct sun from my big window and with some help from marijuana online sites my first corp was some thing about 40 grams of AK47 it was really nice strong and testy


but it was completely under the sun with some GH nutrient and PH kit .

i still waiting for amnesia to finish her long flowering time but the buds are small because of small dose of light these days but any way i'm happy with what i got ... it's my first time and i even didn't buy any equipment .

mean while i'm thinking to start my indoor tent setup to do it well and i was looking for the best and most economical and effective way to find a good light for my future tent so i found this site when i was looking for DIY grow light and it was really impressive what the guys done with DIY LEDs grow lights especially COB projects , you guys in the US are much sophisticated then the European they are afraid to try any thing because of the safety ... but any way i really got a too many useful information from from this site and from other cannabis grow sites too and it's good time to say thanks a lot for any member from those who share their knowledge and experience with the online public .

that'a all for now and you will see me soon when i start my first own grow for my personal use , i don't know how good my english is loool .

Keep it green

cheers :bigjoint:
Mathias, your english is better than most people born to the language.
The main reason l'm replying is your Amnesia Haze has a 13+ week flowering period
take this into account for the best results most of the bud weight will happen in the
last 2 weeks of flowering.
And again congratulations for having the courage and conviction to change and better
your life. BRAVO TO YOU!!! :clap::clap::clap:

Use 1 light and keep the top of the plants in the 80 degree range, you can hang
a thermometer at plant level to monitor this. Sunburn is the bleaching of the top
leaves at their highest point if this starts raise the light.
You should be OK with this setup.
The footprint of the 1k light is approx.1.5 meters fr optimal light.
Will do. The lights are virtual sun 1000's with cool tubes so I am hoping that separate air directional methods for the lights and the the tent itself prove to be adequate for proper control of the environment.

In seeking you will learn the ultimate is in the search!
After you get dialed in try making your own hibreds.

Hi everyone. I'm as new as a newbie can get so I have nowhere to go but up. I'm betting on Oregon passing the recreational mj initiative and am preparing myself to become a licensed producer. I hope I'm up to it. Looking forward to learning a ton as fast as possible. My first question: I'm setting a goal for the end of the first year to be capable of producing 1 lb per month using a totally indoor approach. I have up to 400 sq ft of usable space. Is this realistic?

More than possible, you can get a pound per 16 square feet with 1 / 1000 watt bulb.
Are you going to grow in soil or hydroponics? you'll need a lot of education to start
l would recomend going to greenmanspage.com and click free library and read at
least 3 times you can also check out Jose Cervantes on you tube.

That's encouraging. I haven't decided on soil or hydro yet. I already have some lights, fans, timers, ducting, AC and a bunch of other stuff. But need to learn a lot more before making any commitments.

Thanks for the sources. I'm going to be doing a lot of studying.

You have to be a active member for a while to post pics, I'm not sure how long.
But welcome aboard.

Welcome Canna you happen to be starting with one of my favorites, SLH is very easy to grow
first don't over water, water only when dry next feed very lightly 1/2 strength on the nutes.
and only after it's 2 weeks old so only bloom nutes are necessary they do like calmag so
once a week with that, light should be 20 on/4 off.
Odor can be a problem I hope you have made provisions for this. (carbon filter is best)
Pot size should be 3 to 5 gallons more toward the 5, they get large for auto's.
Don't transplant after germ., germed seedling should go into final pot. So use peat pot
or like organic cup to start seed and move to pot after 3rd leaf set forms.
Anything else we can go into as you need it. We will be here for you.

Hi Oldman60,
Nice to meet you, Thank you for your welcome and advises...I don't feel so lost anymore!!
I am going to use the trio from Fox farm from amazon for nutrients, Should i go with 1/2 dosage from what they are saying and start after 2 weeks old from seed and use bloom? I will go with 5g pots and i will look into Calmag!! Should i start the 20 on 4 off right the way?
Thank you so much for your help!!
Canna
