I've grown the amnesia haze, pineapple haze, og kush, big bud, strawberry, and chocolope. I have blueberry as well that will be run next month. I'm happy with the genetics and results of the harvest. They took about two weeks to arrive. Ilgm was the first seed bank I ordered from. The reason I haven't purchased from them again is they have a very small regular seed offering and I'm into breeding.

Seriously, dont set all your expectations on your first grow. Most new growers do not make it to the end on their first grow attempt. Consider your first grow a major necessary learning experience. At some point you may find yourself in a position where you learned enough to start over. Good luck and hope it goes well, just dont be too discouraged if it does not.

Can you or anyone here give any pointers to make sure it goes pretty smooth? I know a grower here where I live who's been doing this for a few years now, they told me to grow using hid lights, but do to a lot of reading and studying, and lack of space I'm going to use LED lights, inside a tent, being I heard pretty good things about using LED over HID, cost of keeping tent cool and everything else is out of my budget at the time is another reason, alright! seeds came that was in 11 days, so they're very legit, was pretty worried about them getting here.

Just an FYI...LED's put off heat too. If you are in a tent, your gonna need equipment to keep the tent cool.

I know, what my worry is, the heat, so figured LEDS shouldn't be as much heat to be worried about over HPS from what I was reading, mostly worried about boosting up my Electric bill to high, Hoping to grow on my low fixed income and be able to have my medication when needed, was going to setup a fan to pull clean air from room into the tent and then a inline fan removing all the hot air out through my window, using a carbon filter? Another fan inside the tent to keep the air circulating, Am I on the right track?

In your previous post, it just sounded like you were under the impression that no air exchange or cooling would be needed if you chose LED.

No sorry for the misunderstanding, and I've check your page out, very informative and would use it as my backround canvas for my first grow, only difference is I'm going the soil route, being I was told it's much more forgiven for a first time grower, I wanted to go the hydroponics way of growing, cause I heard it grows faster and smoke taste better? correct me please if I'm wrong.
The person here who I know still uses Soil, and when I asked about growing smoke the hydroponics way, they said no, many mishaps can happen and its a more advance way of growing, now this is coming from someone who has over 8 hps lights going just in veg room, and been doing this all legal for over 7 years, don't get why they haven/t moved to hydroponics system yet, cause I always figured it should be easier to grow that way hardly have to tend to it, time pretty much cut in half and the quality of the smoke is top of the line at least, what I thought at first... So going to take their advice and any I can get combing the web and reading others blogs here, cause I tend on having my first grow to be on par with someone advance at growing lol, or maybe I'm just well medicated right now, but I Will make this happen.

I dont think your friend is steering you wrong at all. Its one of those "walk before you run" sorta deals. I too would recommend a soil grow until you get your feet wet and you develop a good understanding of the plant and its characteristics and how it grows, feeding, problems that occour etc. Hydro is actually quite forgiving since if there is an issue and you remedy it quickly, you can usually turn things around in a matter of a day vs soil. The level of involvement & equipment needed to grow proper plants vs soil is where some of the issues may come in for a novice. Dont get me wrong, I love hydro (obviously haha) and you can get larger,faster yields on average with hydro but a less involved route for a novice would be soil.

I bought seeds from ilovegrowingmarijuana.Com ... and I've been waiting about 9 days for my seeds. It's been about a week since the transaction cleared my account too.

They seem like a legit company but not a lot of people know or talk about them.

Does anyone have any input about what I should expect?

I got my seeds from them in a reasonable period of time and stealthily mailed but not a damn one of the beans grew. Out of the ten, three of them germinated to weak little plants that died right away. Trying to get their "guaranteed" replacement has been impossible. They kept stringing me along. Ignoring my emails and then finally a barrage of blaming me for their crappy seeds and stalling sending them. Finally telling me that I needed to dig the rotting dead seeds out of the rockwool and send them back to them (at my expense) for their examination and then maybe (now two months after I ordered them originally) they might send the "guaranteed" replacements. I would not waste my money or time on this rude unprofessional company again. I never got anything resolved with them.

They dont now, 6 months ago they did. I got the grow bible, 10 free white widow feminized seeds and 10 sweet tooth. And why in the world would I say they were from there if they weren't? I will give credit where credit is due. And actually, just checked, and it was 7/7/16 that I placed the order which was billed through China. Not that I have to prove anything, but........

I've been on their site over 2 yrs and never seen that strain offered and just checked the site to be sure, and its still not offered. Only reason I said anything. What did you buy from them? How did you get free seeds?

I bought the 10 sweet tooth and they had a promo for 10 white widow. Only thing I didnt like is, they wont tell you who the breeder of their seeds is or the line that they bred the seeds from. They are unbranded seeds, but the sweet tooth has been going good so far. We shall see in another month or so. I wasnt trying to get into a war of words with you, I just dont appreciate being called out as being untruthful.
