Seeds are only viable for a certain period of time, which varies depending on the conditions they're stored in. Seeds you buy from GOOD seedbanks are turned around fast or given away as freebies before they get too old and start to have really bad germination rates.

In other words if you have enough experience to dump some seeds in a cup of water you're ready to move on to buying seeds. There are even places that sell packs for $20, so you won't break the bank if you screw other things up. Just buy a couple packs then, always germinating about 10 at a time since half can be males and some can be runts.

Exactly.

As long as you have the money to to get the right setup then it is not as complicated as say brain surgery.

Go ahead and buy some seeds! I would reccomend something like Bubbelicious or White Rhino at first because those are the EASIEST plants I have ever grown.

They are practically bomb proof and the WR especially did not require a lot of time or nutrients.

Seriously, don't go cheap and cut corners on your grow. You will end up with more problems than you started with.

I think you will probably be like most and get somewhat addicted to it and end up spending the cash in the long run. So you might as well start off strong! :)

yeah, it's like anything else, there's the temptation to go out and drop mad loot without even needing to. like the guy who gets into video and drops like 30,000 and doesn't even know how to even work a camera! If you're talking few plants like that and this is your first grow, then don't drop too much loot, seriously.

it ain't brain science BUT it's still science and for growing bud, there are rules that if you break them, you will be punished by the weed gods!!

but there are plenty of dope heads on this site to get you through your grow(s) with good seeds man, no need to experiment. riu is here.

you may want to start a grow journal on the grow journal thread. this way peeps be followin your shit.
