Welcome New Members!

Hello. I'm brand new here. I haven't grown cannibus before, but I have a pretty large garden and do have a green thumb. I'm doing research on cannibus cultivation because i want to do it. I have SLE lupus nephritis and some days i cant even move I'm in so much pain. Any special advice would be helpful. Where I live it's not legal to grow (yet) but I do believe it will be someday. I do have a few questions I need help with answers. I have plenty of room and I'm only starting with one plant at 1st just to test things out. I plan on buying feminized over autoflower because from what I've read I can keep it in growth stage longer which I would assume would produce a larger yield in the end. Am I correct in this over the auto flower? I plan on also going with 2-250w 6500k cfl bulbs. Is that sufficient to grow a single plant? Sorry to ask so many questions at once. I cant seem to get enough information.

Hello everyone glad I found this forum i am new to growing and I am attempting my 1st grow.
so wish me luck.

Hi guys I'm Hoodini and I like pot I'm the one and only Hoodini on OverGrow and now I'm here, what's up guys

Hi there,
Just joined and getting ready to set up my new room. This will be my 3rd crop. I first started outdoor with some GC clones. Worked great. High THC, got about 40 ounces from 10 plants and tasted so smooth and sweet. Too high profile for me though. They got so big I think my neighbors could see them. And smell them. Second time I got some unexpected WW clones and quickly set up a room. Had 18 plants and a 1000 watt light. Good smoke but low yield. About 12 ounces. Now, I've redone my room. Insulated 12'x9' and want to maximize my space. 12 ounces isn't enough for me between crops. Will be asking around this site for advice on method and setup.

Welcome to RIU!!

Hello fellow growers, it's been seven years since I visited these forums ... wow, time flies when you are perpetually wasted

Still growing strong, still using LEDs but I've moved on from micro grows and I'm currently pulling half a pound every 10 weeks and to be honest, it is a struggle to consume it all, but I do my best.

I even managed to find and upload my old avatar.

Hello hello. Joining here from Oklahoma where we are about to get started with a long overdue medical program. I am planning to start a small grow and see where that takes me. If nothing else it will be skills gained to keep growing for myself, but I'd like to be a source in the market for quality, organic or mostly organic bud for those who want the best of what nature has to offer. It's really exciting to think that in just a few weeks or months we can build out some legit grow rooms. It's the real deal!

For sure! Same reason I didn't want to open a dispensary. I figure they'll be popping up all over (my area at least) and in a year or two half will be gone. More people get in, supply goes way up, the prices go down, and suddenly your profits aren't what you expected or worse, like you said it's just sitting there and not being sold. Happy growing, see you around the forums.

Hi all, I just joined today after reading links on Google. Great site with outstanding info, sure I won't become stuck with this great group.

Newbie farmer 4th week into first grow and loving it

Greeting everyone.

Toking Teepee here. I am a First Nations status member living on reserve and also a member of a locally formed association currently in the process of establishing a set of regulations for local growers, retailers and consumers so that we may continue to function in harmony with our community. It our goal as a group to provide ethically produced cannabis medicine while supporting our indigenous culture. It is our goal to also become an asset to our local economy.

I have been growing as a hobby for 20 years and I am overjoyed to be able to finally come out of the shadows and be legit. There is so much to learn going from hobbyist to commercial. Any advice would be appreciated.

I am starting my next indoor grow with two 4' x 8' ebb and flow tables using advanced formula Iguana Grow and Iguana Bloom Organic along with Ancient Earth Organic. Any advice would be appreciated. I can never know too much. Just wondering whether it would be a good idea to use pro mix on top of grow rocks in square pots with lots of holes for roots as my grow medium on the flood tables as i will be only growing about 20 plants on each table. I will be pruning plenty of clones while vegging and preflowering while shaping the plants to grow as short flat and bushy for sea of green effect with less plants. Has anyone had success this way and should I use a grid to keep the height down?

I have some superskunk outside, I usually water them every 3 days wether it rains or not, I use 1 5 gallon bucket for each plant. Every second watering which is every 6 days I will add some all purpose fertilizer to it.

Hope this helps you. Happy growing

This is exactly what I needed to know! Thank my guy!

Alright geezers,

New to everything here and never even touched the stuff. Looking at turning a cupboard( with no windows ) into a grow room, will throw a tent in, I currently have just bought the meizhi 450w light.

Got a ways to go yet but we all start somewhere hey. Any advice on equipment and pretty much anything else will be appreciated massively.

Looks like a nice first grow! I wish I had that many for mine (at later stages of flowering) but unfortunately I didn't start the grow in a cat-restricted zone, lol. I agree this site has great info, seems like I more frequently wind up here when searching for answers on my grow. The best resource for me has been a few video bloggers who explain a lot as they go through their grows. Hope you enjoy the process on yours!

Thanks Foagrower, 3 master kush on the left and 3 Critical kush on the right. Done 6 in case any of them failed or grew balls haha. If all six do the biz i hope to get 5 in my tent (1.2x1.2) and sadly throw the weakest looking one unless someone will take her. Using a 240v my for veg then 600w hps for flower. First 3 weeks were 24 hours light now changed to 18/6 on Sunday there. How much you reckon I should get from each plant as a first timer dude?
