Hello. I am a new grower that has been enjoying our favorite flower for well over 25 years. I'd like to introduce my garden to you and have some of you guys/gals follow me along on my 1st grow.. And hopefully get some knowledgeable, experienced tips. I'm way behind most of you, but I'm a fast learner and really enjoying the opportunity to grow this plant legally in my life time. I am a medicinal cannabis patient in Missouri. We are allowed to grow 18 plants.. 6 in flowe, 6 in veg and 6 babies. I am just starting with seeds. I killed around $200 worth of seeds my 1st go around, and now I have 100% germination for my last 6 seeds (I'm highly motivated to have at least a couple of them be successful). My wife and I dropped some nice $ on our setup, now I just need some time, experience, and luck I guess..

Everything that I have done/purchased so far is based off of cultivation grow books that I've read. I am attempting to start a perpetual grow useing (No-till) Living Soil. I have 3 grow stations at this point.. 2'x2'x3'(T) Incubation-germination tent with 19w LED grow light, 3'x3'x80" (T) veg tent with 315w CMH, and 4'x4'x80" (T) flower tent with 600w HPS.... yeah, I went all out.
I will post pictures of the setup. I have already seen bugs on my new seedlings so I'm going to get some neem oil to spray on the ladys.. is this ok while they are young? Also I'm wondering when they will be ready to move under the 315w light?.. I'm starting the seedlings in soil less germination dirt with the LED about 5" above the plants(per manufacturer), then plan to transfer into 1.5 gal plant containers with my living soil, then on to 10 gal fabric pots for flower. Seems like my seedlings are stretching some, but I'm scared to burn the youngsters.. I hope I can get some of you pros to follow this thread and I can find some success with your help. This site is a blessing for us noobs, so THANK YOU in advance. More posts to follow...

If you can post a smoke report after you try it I'd really like to know if Neem oil makes your weed taste bad.

If they ban me they ban me. If you don't like me that's fine. I'm an American. I'm used to it. You won't be controlling what I say though. I'm not the nicest guy in the world and I'm a proud Republican.

I don't care what political affiliation you are. You came on my thread and tried to be funny... I was just looking for some help and you're not much of it. I'm a good old country boy myself. I'm not here expecting to make a bunch of friends, I came here expecting to get some help from the cannabis community. Have a good week sir

I wasn't trying to be funny at all. I seriously just heard a rumour about neem oil and since you use it I was hoping you could let me know. I have bugs but I'm afraid to uss neem because someone said it tastes like baby diaper. Sorry to mess up your thread.

If I misunderstood then I apologize. I'm also an American. You don't want to spray neem on your plants after you put them in flower. There is a dangerous side effect from the neem that causes a specific medical syndrome (not sure of the official name). As a new grower I did my research and decided to spray my veging plants with a neem oil mix. I have since eradicated my mite problems and my plants are flourishing. God bless the USA and you sir

Thank you! Unfortunately I am in flower already but I will definitely be considering neem in the future should problems arise. My thing has just been running my thumb and forefinger along each leave every morn
