That’s great no one’s saying you can’t lol
That’s great no one’s saying you can’t lolb/s a nice harvest with CFLs
Not the smartest thing to do. I am impulsive. I had a building already up with lots of space. I got excited and spent couple hundred large and thought i was going to kill it. not. Some runs we made a little, some runs we lost alot. If no one evr told u that growing indoors is alot of work, i have told u now. I enjoy it, but lots of janitorial work, lifting , carrying,lol.$7000+!..Wow! I thought $150 was bad. You must have a very very large setup.
Unless it literally rains for months nonstop and an unrelenting mold covers every living plant and tree outside. Happened for the 1st time last summer. Lost 90% of a hell of a lot of plants.THE BEST METHOD IS OUTDOORS , you can't sub nature , nature takes care of it's problems and those what's in it,
I can't even imagine as I grew 90 plants once, which is nothing to you, and I was at my limit and now am happy around 25.Not the smartest thing to do. I am impulsive.

I pay 165$ for 1000w hid tube covering a 4*4. If I can work out how to heat my home with the excess heat, it will be far more effecient in terms of running costs.they worked better for me I've tried using LEDs they grow plants way too slow for me, back in the 90s when I 1st started fooling with them, HiDs is all we had & knew how they work, now since growing in medicinal states we can grow them , so I used to use LEds went bought a 600 watt MH & HPs kit for $250.00 set it up ran the exhaust to the attic a friend made in my house & showed how to reseal it so it won''t show marks where a hole is , this is my home I don't put holes in my walls to grow pot, If I had a choice keeping my house livable or growing pot ? I'll keep the house , it's worth A LOT MORE MONEY!
the best method is knowing personally they can come over and advise you which a friend decided to do within his busy schedule, internet forums will only confuse you b/c you can ask 1 question get 5 different answers & none of them will be correct either on the 1st day I logged on seen misinformation are over , He said never listen to those on the internet b/c they are not there & don't know the plant's environment, etc., I see those using Spider farmer lights from $350.00 & up, you really think I'm going to spend that just for personal? no , I know the game plan, seen it go down in the 80s greed takes over & eventually causes their demise & you wonder why people get popped? that's why greed overcomes them just a few more won't be that bad till reality hits & you're over your head, 5 plants for personal The friend I was referring to told me you can deal with only 2 plants b/c the amount you use isn't worth growing that much b/c by the time you the spot it won't be any good b/c time & air decomposes the thc in the weed & breaks it down so it won't be as potent as it was beforeInternet and friends on growing fourms are surely the best
LolTHE BEST METHOD IS OUTDOORS , you can't sub nature , nature takes care of it's problems and those what's in it,
not in the winter , in the summer i can grow it outside on another property in his backyard b/c I own the house , I got my bases covered, the guy that lives there also owned greenhouses & used to be her ex, he knows what to do with them told me if I help you I need a cut , I said sure, he smokes less than me , lol, ,a joint would last him a weekLol
then you get a 100 degree day and your buds foxtail.
I use the same nutes as I did in the early 80s. They still work perfect.That's funny I'm coming across this, was thinking the exact same thing half hour ago. I'm thinking it's the fact that we're able to produce more THC from a plant than back then with today's nutes, focusing it's energy on producing nice thight, sticky, stinky buds instead of growing big, loose not so packed with trichomes flowers.
Today's genetics also play a role in this I think
We used to grow tops that couldn't fit in a 2 liter bottle of coke with Earth Juice in the 90's.., Shishkaberry, California Orange, Skunk #1, Freezeland (Northern light #5) and the list goes on...where are those?
To answer the OP's question, it all started with Ed Rosenthal's The Closet Cultivator for me
Puff Puff
I read that 1 too, ,lol,,, the book I had was the 1st edition with the plant's flowers on the top, remember renting it but never returned it but I don't think I ever paid for it eitherI use the same nutes as I did in the early 80s. They still work perfect.

Now that's old nutes, must be fermented by now. ..I'd buy a new bottleI use the same nutes as I did in the early 80s. They still work perfect.
my wife told me the same thing, I have 3 growing at the moment but ran into a few issues a long it's growth left 3 places a friend's I knew that grows them then my other friend got it sat inside beside the cold window which wasn't good then left the house went into the cold below 0 then came back into the grow tent then starting recovering but they're still alive after the b/s they went through, 1 month's time lapseStuck a seed in the ground and learn something new every grow. Trial and error is the best teacher.
Hey there,
General topic is how are people learning to grow?
I have read and re-read the Cannabis Grow Bible (3rd Ed) by Greg Green, it is a boat load of good knowledge and I learn something new everytime I crack it open.
