hello all, first time grower old hippie. started with bagseed as recomended
Welcome. We even have an old hippies mthread, haven't seen any posts there for a while.
into 3 week started with incadesents so slow start but catching up quickly.got my 2nd set of 3 pointers ladies are 1-3inches tall,
I do hope there is an error here, you are not using incandescent lights are you? Do not do that, add some more cfl's and keep them close to your plants, we have a sub forum for cfl growers also, and Garden Knowm wrote a book about growing with them, we have a thread for that too!!
wich brings me to my question thats been asked 1 billion times, when is the best time to top the babies so i can get some bush going? would appriciate all advice. I have a photo journal and will post when i learn safley how.thanks all and remember wherever you go / there you are.
Bend me, shape me, anyway you want to, you got the power..........
Topping your plant may make it 'bush', it may not increase yield. Let me explain. Most of the time your plants will spend longer in vegging when you top them. I had a nice plant, topped it using fim techniques, got 8 colas, wow. The yield was the same from it as it was from the ones I bent instead, and I harvested them sooner.
If you have to top it, just have to, view the DirtBags Pornfolio...he shows exactly what and how and where he cuts his plants, whoops, TREES, just tell him VV sent ya.
That 5hit
I did, your information is flawed. It is based on lumen out put only, not usable light to the plants. Welcome to our forum. VV

Hey every one. I am a newbie to this forum and site but not to the growing game. I'm not so much experienced as I am filled with observations and lessons from freinds and acquaintances. My actual practice time is very limited. Thanks to every one who made this site possible.
Welcome Jiggs, lots of information here to help you. VV

Sup? Been clean for about 4 months now due to recent move from TX to WI, SUX(being clean). Bored outta my mind and no luck finding any connects so thought I'd start checkin into some different growing methods for some entertainment, lol. Lookin forward to the community here,
Thanks
Well, DroBo, very well said except for the 'clean' part, it assumes you were 'dirty'. The message is righteous, hope you get a response. 'Dry' would be a better term?? VV

hello everyone, i am about to start germinating, and its my first time growing in my closet. any tips would help. i have a bag of all purpose miracle grow a bunch of paper cups ang a heat limp, im low on money is there anything eles thats cheap i can use?? thank you
Hey seamonkey, ditch the heat lamp or you will have dead plants and low money. Investigate some cfl grows, they are inexpensive and can be placed close enough to the plants to get a yield. Garden Knowm used those and Miracle Grow soil in his book, Marijuana Buds For Less by SeeMoreBuds. $16.95+ tax at Barnes and Nobles. He shows how he grew 8 oz of dried bud from 3 female plants for less than $100.00. VV

Whats up! This is the first time I'm trying to grow(I been smoking for 30 years) and I'm getting sick of buying weed and figured I'd grow my own. I bought some BC God bud seeds and I have 8 little plants growing under 4-48 inch fluoresent tubes. Iwould love to buy hps lights but I can't find anything higher then 75 watts where I live, is cfl's better then what I'm using? I could get alot more of them over my plants then the tube ones!!My plants are only 2 weeks old!
Welcome 4u see the cfl's will do a good job if you place them right, within an inch or two of the plants. VV
I promised some suggestions, here they are. Pick a couple of journals that sound like the space you have for starting your grow, read through them and ask questions, the folks that hagve just done what you are going tp attempt will be glad to answer them.
Post a journal of your own, share your plan, pictures will get you intelligent answers, dumb looks are still free, details are important.
Welcome to all of you. VV
