hands off

I am still very much new to growing, but have a few grows under my belt at least. Every grow though I’ve paid attention to pH, RH, the soil, the pots, lighting, etc. Then about a month ago I tossed some seeds in random pots in the yard, with garden loam i had piled in the yard. Didn’t add perlite, didn’t bother to pH the water, and have only fed once thus far. These plants look much better than the results I got by controlling each and every parameter. I’m sure they’re far from perfect and started too late, won’t yield too much etc....but they look pretty good to me. 2 critical mass, 2 gelato, not sure which is which, don’t care, just letting them do their thing. Hands off for the most part.

Most newer growers mess around with too much stuff and actually do more harm than good. After awhile they figure out that leaving the plant to grow without a bunch of fuss provides better results. Many plant problems are caused by the grower. The plant has been domesticated for over 10,000 years. Long before there were pH meters and and all this nonsense people are doing.
