- Never procrastinate or be lazy; don't put off watering, filling humidifiers etc
- Only change one thing at a time, and wait for results before changing something else; if you change multiple things at once, you have no idea what fixed an issue, or caused an issue
- Invest time into much research; deep research up front saves time and money, and always results in a better chance of success

1. Patience.
2. Water is not the devil and aeration is your best friend.
3. When a younger plant has a mark, or slight deficiency. Don't immediately worry about trying to correct it. It'll probably snap out of it anyway.

1) Don’t kill the oddball seedling. That one oddball is probably special and the others are just all the same
2) less is more. Moderate amounts using as few bottles/bags as possible. Expensive stuff is for suckers.
3) Only change one thing at a time
4) higher cost doesn’t equal better genetics

Don't just give seeds out all goodwill like and expect anything back. Be humble

Never go to a second location with a hippy

Never turn your back on a drug waving a razor sharp hunting knife at you

1. Keep your grow area clean and organized. It makes the growing experience much more pleasant.
2. You don't need for cannabis specific nutrients and other products.
3. Less is better than too much when it comes to feeding.

All good points ....

Here is some more .

Don’t HOVER over your grows ..... overthinking shit kills more plants than you can believe.

Don’t be a cheap ass ... buy good gear for your grow . Example : Good golf clubs or amazon fisher price baby clubs ?

Make sure your girl , wife , boyfriend is COOL with
your hobby. Otherwise toss ass out the door .

Get good seed genetics ... leave the street swag seeds to the cartels ( although some mexi red grown proper is fire ! )

Lastly ... RIU has its fair share of keyboard assholes , don’t trip , don’t take it personal , trolls be trolls . And Don’t be an asshole.

1.) Be leery of clones from outside your own house, DIY.

2.) Check in on the tent/grow area a few times a day, if possible.

3.) Address any problem that occurs in the most mild manner, avoiding further damage or shock to the plant.

4.) Don't buy garbage lights, fans and accessories......unless you smoke shit pot.

5.) Don't piss into the wind.

6.) As a new RIU member don't ask for help while being aggressive to established members that HAVE bothered to help others.
