Hey mate welcome back!

[A Toxicated Mind]

I have a question about, nodes[is that the right spelling? Im not really sure about that] But, besides that, how would i go about watering them? Would it be like normal watering for plants or keep the soil moist like germinating seeds?

[Kaos-theory]

idealy you want to keep the soil moist then let it dry out slightly before making it moist again

[A Toxicated Mind]

Alright cool, thanks. I was hoping you'd be the one to tell me.

[Kaos-theory]

no worries
i used to let mine dry out for a day so the soil was really dry then get it really wet and leavit again. i havent grown anything this year though i might start in january or sometime before christmas.

are you adding any nutriants?

[A Toxicated Mind]

No, i didnt start it yet. I wasnt able to go to my friends house to cut some. Should i add them?

[Kaos-theory]

its up to you end of the day - some people swear by them others dont

[Synchronium]

Kaos, write me a comprehensive growguide for indoors and out?

Kthx

[S7@1T3D]

I want to grow but i don't have any space which to do so. Could i after they germinate put them in a Gatorade bottle till they are big enough to be placed outside?

[Kaos-theory]

you could if you want to. it'd be like a small habitate inside the bottle though so might affect them once you place them outside.

i grew a 2ft tall plant in my window sill.

[Vallen]

What you grow the two foot plant out of?

[Kaos-theory]

well taking into consideration a few factors. -

My room is at the back of the house facing the house in the next street. My window is about 4ft. Now your suposed to increase the size of the plant pod as the root ball grows/height of the plant etc. i didnt i kept it in a 3" diameter pot the whole time from seedling to flowering.

I had a nice thick stem due to lightly bending the stem at times helps harden the plant up.

So, what was in my pot you ask.

Standard issue garden centre compost. And watered every time the plant pot was practically bone dry. I'd saturate the soil with a mix of water & Tomarite( had a 2L bottle stashed by the PC * WARNING LOOKS LIKE PISS SO IF FAMILY FIND IT IT MAY GET BINNED/QUESTIONED ABOUT*)

This 2l bottle got refilled once out of the entire grow.

My harvest at the end was about an Ounce in wet weight. when dry was about half that.

Oh i also forgot to mention i planted 2 seeds in that pot, and had 2 females, the 2ft one and the other one was 1 and a half foot.


next year early this year im takign it outside for the second outdoor attempt. the first one didnt last 2 weeks, broke the stem in transport and got eaten.

[S7@1T3D]

Was listining tol radio when 2 men had go caught with 2 cannabis plants that were like well established trees and brang back memories of Hugo a huge plant that grew year round in the bush and it had a 17cm circumference around the base.

[The Influence]

I planted a new plant last week and just transfered it to a bigger pot. The problem is that when it was growing it grew diagonally. So it's not standing up very well in it's new pot. I was wondering if it's okay to use plastic toothpicks as a brace. Or is it even okay to brace a seedling?

If it makes no sense.. I am REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY high

[Shalshaska]

Get a straight stick/twig the size of the seedling, stick it in next to it, and tie them with some twine til it can stand.... btw you arent nuting it are you?

[The Influence]

Not yet.. But I did add some extra rich topsoil when I transplanted... I tried bracing it but it fell before I got to it.. It's alive though.. The leave all face sideways cause they readjusted from falling down... I just re braced it and waterd it.. Im gunna start nutes next week meby

[Vallen]

Make sure your light isn't coming from one direction it will cause your plant to grow liek that.
Rotate it everyday if thats the case.

[Green Arrow]

i want to plant but i dont really have a place to plant. and im kind of waiting for the weather to warm up. i was thinking of just getting a proper light bulb and just growing it under a lamp. ive never tried to grow before so if you have any advise it would help.

[Shalshaska]

Just go out in the woods when the snow is gone (if you have snow), and scope deep into the woods for a spot, preferably within a few hundred yards of a creek or water source. If you're growing indoors, get a fluoro or maybe CFL; cheap lights don't do shit for your plants.

I'd go to a forum (there are TONS) specifically about growing and check out their beginner FAQ's and tutorials. You're going to need a lot of info on germination, soil, lights, nutes, NPK, light cycles, lightbulb types and if you're thinking outdoor, you're going to need your area's seasonal frosts, and learn about all kinds of pesticides.

How good your plants come out depend on how serious you are, and some luck.

ahm im not much into growing but im trying to start some small grow here at my house but i couldnt understant some of the advices you people gave in the posts...like bud.what is the bud?and what is the difference between sativa and indica?

[S7@1T3D]

Bud is the part you smoke. Its thew flowering part of a female plant.

[bart_s32]

hmm i think i knew what it was i just dindt know the name of it...how can we smoke male plants?or they cant be smoked?

[S7@1T3D]

They can, just not as potent. Mainly leaves.

[headcase]

Most people dump their male plants.

[i have the speed]

some people i know who grow make hash with their males. it's genrally frowned upon, but it works.

[S7@1T3D]

I do. Just rip it out and throw it out down the road.

[bart_s32]

What about drying the buds, it's the same as drying the leafs?
