Aussie chick looking for a Mentor!

[Mollyambro]

Green thumb Danny!!! Please message me or anyone actually who feels like being a bit of a mentor to me. I’m from Aust I’ve been at this for about a year but I seem to be a bit hit and miss which is driving me mad. So if you ACTUALLY know what your doing, I mean really know your stuff please!!! Message me I need to find myself a ‘Mr Miagi’ I’m not shit at it but I’m not awesome either and I want to be awesome at it. I don’t even smoke but I growing.

You should grow regular foods right now if you dont burn. Lots of hungry animals in your country right now that could use the help the knowledge transfers over, I dont know a single veg gardener who cant grow killer pot.

 

[Mollyambro]

Ouch!!

 

[Dbear180]

Ouch!!

Not being negative, just saying if you dont smoke your buds, why not put that effort into helping out some of the misplaced animals who cant help themselves

The knowledge you gain from the vegs completely relates to pot.

Hey no one is ferfect and what kind of life would you have if you thought you knew everything. I love learning off others who are better at something than me. I’m not afraid to ask for help and there is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to improve.
Not sure why you bothered responding .

 

[Dbear180]

Hahaha ok I think I see it now. When I said, "if you don't burn" I meant smoke weed lol my bad

I agree , I really should do more.. I guess the animal shelter That I run and the rehab that I’ve been giving to injured wildlife for the past 5 years and the 10 acres of my land on my property that I let CALM use to release animals back into the wild which I hand feed everyday is a pretty poor effort. Shame on me for not supporting my country.. geez mate

 

[Mollyambro]

Well you did kind of strike a nerve!!

 

[Mollyambro]

Oops! Sorry then.. I guess the country burning at the moment is a bit of a heated and sensitive topic. Sorry dude thought you were having a go at me for not helping the bush fire victims

 

[Dbear180]

I never even accused you of not helping. My whole point was you can grow vegs, learn & become an overall better more skilled gardener(which transfers over to all plants), & help by donating the veg, rather than grow weed you dont smoke. Never said you dont help.

Being from CA I genuinely feel for you guys & hope the wildfires are under control asap.

I'm outta here ✌

So sorry, I took it completely out of context.

Don't worry it's becoming commonplace for SJW's to force their beliefs and ideals upon the world. Just ignore and continue being You.

Back to topic, eh, folks?

What's your main concern with your grow? If you don't want to discuss in public feel free to PM me. Non judgemental US Army veteran here to help

It seems like Everywhere I look people all pulling massive buds and their yielding heaps. I seem to be an expert at the opposite!! Not really sure where I’m going wrong but I’ve done maybe 8 grows now and the most I’ve got out of my 4 x 2 was 630g. I mean I was happy with that but I can tell the buds were not at there full potential. Somewhere along the line I am stunting them. And because it’s Here it’s difficult to find help!!

 

[Mollyambro]

I know I shouldn’t compare to others but I just would like to fine tune my skills so that I can continue improving instead of continuing to stuff up.

I hear that and there's a lot of disinformation out there that can be misleading to new growers.

Let's start with the basic info about your grows first. Lights? Growing medium (soil, coco, hydro, etc)? What if any nutrients are you using? Environmental controls? Relative humidity, temp, etc? Strains you're growing or have grown? All these factors can determine the outcome of your harvest/ end product. Tell us a story :)

Just start a grow journal and people will come by and help and give tips. You dont want just one persons opinions and rely on just one person

 

[Deadstill]

Also if you have any pictures that would be a big help.

Many of the insights I’ve gained through this forum have been; lighting, soil used, fabric bags instead of pots, and sticking with one regimen of fertilizers. I’ve upped my harvest by going to bigger “bags”, using the best lighting I can afford, Cree branded cob lights, good soil, PH’g any feeding, attention to RH and constant ventilation while in bloom.
Btw @Mollyambro 630g out of a 4x2 is over 22 oz. nothing to cough at...

The undergrowth is just about dead. It’s wk6 and the buds are tiny on the plants at the back. They literally haven’t done anything for a few weeks

some seem ok but others. This is my first grow from seeds froma Swedbank and I’m a bit overwhelmed with how big the plants are I just need the buds to catch up!
