YOUR rookie mistakes..

I just snapped my main stem on a 3wkish old plant while trying to LST for the first time. My second plant LST didn't get snapped as I learned my lesson in bending from the first.

My advice, even if you make a mistake, or two, you'll come out way more knowledgeable from it, then if you hadn't made it.

I got a male plant my first grow, my uncle told me not to throw it out right away, but instead to use it to learn how to train a plant, that way even if you destroy it, no harm done, it also taught me how hard they are to kill! It stayed mostely alive in my garage with no lights but a window, no water, no love, and I topped twisted bent and broke it several times!

I learned not to act or freak out when a problem arises. And start dumping,cutting,whatever to your plants just be patient increase or decrease what your doing fix the problem in a patient level minded way. And if need to ask for help don't let pride get in the way of
quality smoke ha ha

Good tip! I had a bad case of root rot and just threw everything I had at it. I cured it after 6 weeks but threw so much shit in the Rez I'm not sure what cured it lol.

And my final post here is my biggest rookie mistake ever!!!!!! I didn't read this post first!

I once misread a nutrient label and mixed nutrients about 900% too strong for a seedling I was raising. And it died real quick.

I had a "brain challenged" guy friend one time who cloned fan leaves his first cloning try. For real. He showed them to me. He actually snipped fan leaves and planted them. Yes he did. Wow did he get red faced when I finally stopped laughing and told him what he did wrong.

Rgr that, Capn!

I learned that patience in the end will pay off... if you rush it, it hurts the yield and the quality.... With all the time and effort put into the first few months, whats an extra week or even two.
