And yes I totally get it. I used cheap soil and mixed it with top soil from outside. At the time I was seriously broke. It's kinda embarrassing bit hey it is what it is. My soul is way to compact. No airation! Like I said at first I didn't know what I was doing but considering they turned out pretty damn healthy

I've come to believe it is trial and multiple errors forever after 30+ years. I'm still erring and tweaking. Very few things are mandatory.

Check page 11 of my journal for a proven soil recipe that is very low maintenance and productive.

MICHI-CAN's Adventures in Growin' fer Rednecks

Thanks so much for everything. I will definitely check that out and use it in my next grow. That totally might be my problem why my plants are kinda behind. The soil mixture. I never thought of that but it makes total sense. Mine is to compact! One more question and I really hope I'm not bothering you. What if it gets to cold do I try and bring them in or just harvest at the last possible moment and take what I can get from them. Like I said I'm a total newbie!!

No bother. Happy to help us frugal growers. Just add 30% coco-coire med. to your soil next grow. Like steroids compared to current set. And no more than $15 for half dozen 5 gal. pots worth. I don't sell things. Just promote what works for me. 004.jpg

Again thanks for your help. And what is some good lighting for a beginner that won't break the pocket. And what's your opinion on LED's. Good or bad?

You'll get there quick if you avoid the hype and learn the plant. Internet arrogance keeps the retail giants swimming in cash. We can actually use the cash for drinks and munchies. Better lights and air systems.

Unpredictable. Outdoors no train or top about 2#'s per plant. LST, topping and hard defol on over winter vegged plant 4-7#'s. Indoors I top twice, hard defol and SCROG. About 3-4 Oz per 30-36" plant. Have to give away or destroy anything over the 30 Oz we can legally have in the house. Happy to help my friends. Too many years ingesting toxins on the job and suffering with me.

So the limit is 30. I've seen the sea of green method and the super cropping. They all look like good methods

We are no longer registering with the state and giving them money. They made it illegal for caregivers to sell overages to dispensaries. Fuck corporate middle men and politicians. I hand out eights in front of the dispensaries just to hurt sales for them. We used to make back a decent percentage of our investment. Now it is total expense. 001.jpg
