Woulda-Coulda-Shoulda done ___________ differently!

Any of you pro-growers out there remember when you first said to yourself"I'ma grow me some pot! Yee haw!"?
what did you do that you wish, with hindsight, you had done differently? For whatever reason.

Start off with lower grade seeds....no reason to learn lessons with $10 plus seeds like Serious AK47 and Sensi NL x Haze. Also wished I would have learned how to clone earlier because I had this freakish plant that was a resin producing machine...not going to give names because the Spanish seed company in my opinion lost one of it's breeding plants or just got lazy...the thing was that their seeds were not expensive.

Thanks, red. I guess everyone else is burnt.

Hook up an electric thermal switch to all of your heat producing equipment in the event of an ac or fan failure. This would have saved me over $5 grand easy.

wish i knew i had to wait for it to flower....i chopped it in veg...didn't realize that we smoke the buds not the leaves...lol i was 18 at that time and no internet lol

Still a newbie working on my first grow outdoors. In hindsight, I would've started a bit later in the year to avoid having a monster my first time. Also, I wish I had been smarter about starting seeds...I wasted a lot of seeds by starting them directly in a hot mix.

Live and learn though, I'm a firm believer in the idea that making mistakes is fine as long as you learn from them. My next grow is going to be better in so many ways.
