all the get... fox farm and use there recommended ferts...hahaha.......
Get sunshine or promix... its not soil, its a soiless growing medium made from a peat moss base..... use any fert you want everytime you water but only at 1/2 the strength that the directions say to use
when growing from seeds.... you will usually have to grow a lot of seeds to find a keeper... then clone that keeper
sometimes the plants that you get from seed are not that potent....that's why they send you a pack of 10 so you can pop um all and hopefully find 1 really good phenol
Shit... I when I first started growin I used to use a microwave to dry a test piece of weed.....45 sec in the micro and in the bong it went...still ripped me

How did your other grows turn out and what where your conditions this time? Where did you get your seeds from? Pictures of this would really help. But, yeah dude, shit, like the others said don't dry ANY weed in an oven. If I want something to dry 'quicker' it goes in a warm, dark room, on netting or newspaper with good air circulation and possibly damp-rid. Still takes a day or so (depending on if it is a little bud or much more).
I just have to say, if you really want to grow organically (meaning: in living soil), don't use the liquid Fox Farm nutrients. Their soils are fine, but, Big Bloom is the only liquid nutrient they have that is truly made from all natural ingredients and micro-biologically active. They also have a line of dry nutrients, various Happy Frog and Peace of Mind products which are organic. Honestly though for dry organic plant food you can find Espoma Bio-Tone and other Tone products at any hardware store or garden center. These need to be mixed into soil before you plant into it. I often use Ocean Forest mixed with coco coir or SAM#4 and Bio-Tone (and dolomite lime, of course).
There are some fine liquid organic nutrient lines such as Earth Juice and even General Organics. With organic [living] soil it is better to just try and let the soil feed the plant as much as possible, using the liquid inputs sparingly.

Do not dry in oven, and don't waste your money on good seeds until you get your shit figured out. I phucked around for a few years in high school with outdoor, and then failed miserably in college with indoor. You must read and read and read and ask questions places like this. The past three years have been extremely rewarding from doing research on the entire process. You took all that time to grow and then didn't dry and cure properly? At this point I do not even know why I even replied to this thread.....

Have you read my posts?
Go on now if you haven''t, I'll wait.
Still want to stop me having my one little moment of humour?
(trolls really are wasting their time on someone with as much Sugar Punch as I have)

Ta dude. I was joking, thank you for noticing. You'd think if anyone would have spotted it a stoner would (even if it was a shit joke). Maybe he's not a stoner and is just a dumb troll.

hmm, and I was telling people the other night that growing ganja was probably one of the easiest ventures I've undertaken.
Seriously, I just read many many threads here...bought good equipment that was dialed in for my space, and good seeds. Follow the nute directions...poof...dank buds of my choosing.

That was my very first thought when seeing this thread title.
When I then read the initial post I was left thinking it was an ironic joke. I do not apologise to anyone for that perception.

You know, he's exactley right, you don't need all that stuff to grow good weed. Basics first, then advance. Don't understand why people think you can't grow weed without having your growroom look like a lab. Just because you use foxfarm, along with a lot of others, doesn't mean it's the shit. It means a plant will grow in it like in any other soil. Yes, your yields will get better when you start advancing in knowledge and learn how to ph properly, correct soil mixes, feed correctly, etc. But it is a total myth that you can't grow good quality weed without all the fancy stuff. In my opinion, you're the one giving bad advice, getting a noob in over his head before he has the basics down. I agree a good grow book can help, but a book on growing houseplants would also work.
Every plant needs the same thing to grow, nothing special about weed. I plant a few plant's in my garden every year, treat them exactly the same as plant's in the garden, and I get nice plant's with killer smoke just like everyone else. It's not hard to grow, and it's not hard to grow properly. Growing properly means you made it to harvest with a nice plant that produced some good smoke. Because it's not a monster does not mean it was not grown properly. I bet you Vegas, are not as muscle bound as say The Rock, or some huge muscle builder. Does that mean you are unhealthy and should be put down, or that you are a strong healthy person, that just doesn't eat, workout and put into your body what it take for them to have that body. Same dif with weed, you can have strong healthy plant's with good basic growing, or monster plant's with advance growing techniques. It's not rocket surgery.
I don't like seeing people give EXTREMELY bad advice. He doesn't need all the bells and whistles we have...But he doesn't need bad advice. I never suggested a damn thing to him besides to not take bad advice...This guy is feeding him nonsense about drying in the sun, and chemically nitrogen rich bullshit miracle-grow houseplant food. There is a rule of thumb when it comes to CHEAP nutrients and Miracle grow... it is "If it has a tomato on it use it, if it doesn't, it will hurt you or someone else." I can grow a plant the side of a bedroom with miracle grow...big as fuck, fat buds, and beautiful looking..BUT IT WILL TASTE LIKE SHIT AND YOU WILL BE PUTTING HARMFUL CHEMICALS IN YOUR LUNGS" Kinda defeats the purpose of growing your own bud...doesn't it?

If this happens in Veg or early stages of flowering then yes...you fucked up. But you insuated at "HARVEST" that my leaves where yellow...THAT IS A GOOD thing so you know, like I said it means the plant is doing its job by using all the nutes it can. Now if you use nutes 1-2 weeks before harvest that is on you. If you can still grow a plant that taste good, go ahead, but the fact remains your potency will not be as high as mine!

Thank you for having a understanding of that. Trust me when I say this, THAT PLANT FOOD is not what you want to use. They sell a PINK crystal nutrient that is better and is actually for growing things like bud/tomatos. You have to understand that ANYTHING that has a tomato on it, is good for your plant..PERIOD..if it doesn't, read the back labels, and it more then likely is going to be HORRIBLE for you to smoke...
