Second grow attempt

happy frog perlite potting soil medium using two 125 6,400 k cfl lights using combo of jungle juice and dya gro nuites every other feeding 24 hour lighting at the moment prob another 4 weeks then 12/12 and put in my 125 watt cfl's 2,700k 7,300 lumen lights ill update as often as can not sure the strain thinking indaca but that's all its bag seed so not sure ..

Bro, all that time, money and effort for seeds that could be shit?
I'm only on my 3rd grow now, but I've never understood why people use unknown seeds when it's a risk you just don't need to take. Amazing potent seeds are available all over the world really cheap. What if you spend 5 months on it and it turns out to be a shit strain/genetics? My first grow I bought 3 OG kush from royal queen - £20, and 3 blue cheese from barneys - £20. I got 12 oz of stinking, potent, dry buds. Never looked back......

That's a good point adam im actually on that path with crop king seeds . I'd rather know what im growing.I'll let you know how it goes

I agree with both sides here, and hard to steer me down one path or the other.

For a moderately experienced grower to advanced grower I completely agree that growing bag seed is a complete waste of time and resources, but for the 1st or 2nd time grower using bag seed is a great educational tool to learn with out killing a seed that money was spent on.

Bag seed for new grower Pros:

• Can identify under or over watering issues - biggest problem I see with new growers
• Can identify nutrient deficiencies
• Learn patience or that you don't need to be in the grow room caressing the plant and stroking its leaves every minutes
• how to sex a plant
• Learn growing techniques, ie Soil, Coco, DWC, NFT, Aeroponics (yes I see new growers start with this straight off the bat), Flood n Drains, or hybrid systems, then there are Bush grows, lollipoping, LST, Supercropping, SoG, ScroG,
  
• possibly even venturing into cloning with a bag seed plant

Bag seed for new growers Cons:

• Waste of time, money and resourses growing absolute rubbish
• New growers will treat all cannabis the same as far as nutrient strengths, not realizing that each strain is different

bottom line is that bag seeds are shit for a reason, they are there to feed our gutter scum and keep them away from our good stuff when they don't appreciate it to begin with, I live in the southern part of Australia where it is common to mix weed with tobacco (even if you don't smoke ciggies), I do not share my weed with these people, I tell them to bring their own or go home. So in this situation, having some street weed in the house is a good option if you don't want to shit on your friends and tell them they cant smoke your premium green
