I hate to think with 135 IQ I can not do this if given some direction. But no I have never grown anything. Growing up in west texas where soil is pretty much a neal on notes and hard as rock the only real way to grow stuff is to own tractors and heavily amend things. Or now the popular raised beds which no one even discussed back when I was a young man. I cant see how at $300 an ounce it can be cheaper to buy it than to grow it. I mean I cant afford much on a fixed income. But that is insanity. An ounce won't last anytime at all.Cannabis works great for pain, if your gonna try to grow start simple, good dirt, good nutrients, good light, a tent ect, even a cheap light will set you back $200, all my stuff payed for itself over time, what I'm trying to say it costs mony to start up, what I'm trying to say is cannabis is the easiest plant in the world to grow but one of the hardest to grow correctly, have you ever grown a houseplant? Anything? If not I would just get my weed at the store or on the black market, much cheaper in the long run, I am not trying to discourage you, and yes you can certainly be taught, but remember its an investment you allways need this or that, or problems, think it over hard.
I have 40 acres and a 12 x 12 bedroom. LOL so space is not an issue. My well water and just pure lack of any knowledge is the issue. If I could bother you to read my response to Edinburgh it would be great. Thanks in advance. And thanks for not trying to discourage me. I have been involved in breeding bulldogs for over 30 years and seen some breeders try to keep others out of breeding. Seems I will hit some of the same treatment here. NO fear of me taking away from your market I have no intention going commercial and certainly won't be paying $300 an ounce for it simply cause it is totally out of my capability of doing so.No need to struggle, it's just a plant. :)
Are you thinking of growing inside or outside? Have you grown any other plants in the past? How much space do you have?
Not as easy to grow...as a semi noob...but cbd oil has helped many people also.may try that while your grow is coming along..seems like u answered your questions. U can look at FAQ in this site and get lots of info too.......I use distilled water on my grow and ph test everything ...good luck...u can do it.I have 40 acres and a 12 x 12 bedroom.

From the sound of it you are pretty much stuck to indoor grow due to light cycle. Don't cheap out on the really important things like Lights, exhaust and sanitary. And get yourself a good ph pen (sounds like yours might have bitten it). Whether you decide to grow Hp or in soil there are lots of folks on here that will be willing to help you on your way. Start by going through some of the threads on here with an open critical mind, If you play nice most of these stoners are willing to help.;)
Putting up some pics of your plants may help,not sure why your thinking people here would not treat you with nothing but respect. Being your first grow you probably wont have much success but learn from your mistakes.Having a high IQ is a joke(mine is above yours and I quit school at 15).Been growing for 41 years and the first 5 were not good,but I learned from it and the many books I read(botany,plant biology,agriculture etc etc)before there was this information superhighway. It aint as easy as coming onto a stoner forum to become "enlightened".Ive never owned or used a ph,ppm meter tester its mostly about experience
I obviously have read threads or I wouldn't have a clue that I could be suffering nutrient lock from my PH being too high. And obviously I have decided for soil since they are in soil. So I guess my whole efforts of seeking help I must have been a jerk since I didnt get it.
Why would u assume I was stuck to indoor due to light cycle. How would Oklahoma light cycle be less favorable than the emerald triangle? I mean it is much closer to equator where most strains originate especially sativa from my very limited knowledge. We will maintain long hours all the way through november. And warm weather too unless we get a very unusual early cold snap.
And by the way the books suggested by MIMED seem useless and outdated. I just started my third one and it says marijuana loves lots of fertilizer.I mean I really know absolutely nothing. But I have read many threads on here that say it is easy to over fertilize.
Why am i getting so much mixed information.
I would look into making RSO. Rick Simpson oil.MY wife has AVN and we are looking to see if we can help her with cannabis. She is looking at double hip replacement if we can't get something to shift her circulation and saw on a tv show an ex police officer that has kept his at bay through cannabis. Now I know that this could be a made up scenario being on TV. But we are willing to try anything. And I am type II diabetes so maybe I can help myself two. Anyways to make a long story short we got our medical license to buy which also allows us 6 plants and we can have 6 flowering and 6 in vegetative.
So I am struggling and will be looking for help
he's got them up on a diff post.... he is running 2 posts and guys ...... he's old and you can tell it was going ok , shit happen and now he is here... I read people good and I think from what I'm reading and seeing is .. at 1st the guy just DIDN'T know how to talk to this group of people......he needs help and he needs more then I can do for him.... so I'm staying out of it.... But He just started off on the wrong foot, doesn't know anything/but is book smart, No real hands on in growing, so just act like he is your dad best freind and help him out.....Who bro, you talk like you have some grow experience, you say no one will help you , I will right now, I need pics! Why do u refuse to show them?
I just finished 9th chapter of Ed Rosenthals book. And this is where he discusses preparing the soil. Mostly just like a basic garden preparation. You said that this book tells you ALL you need to know. But so far not one thing about NPK ratios. Which my original question related to PH and my inability to lower it. I have since lowered the ph not through adding the acid additives that I had purchased from our only grow store. But rather I had not been giving enough feed. Reading stuff on here how newbies all make a mistake of over feeding I did just the opposite and didnt feed enough. When I pounded the soil with food since they were males anyway and had nothing to loose my PH plummeted from all the acid that I had added. NO one answered my question they just went off on a tangent about the plants being males. Which if I wanted to raise males I dont see how anyone can be the cannabis police and penalize me for doing so. It would be my business.I recommended only 2 books and really only pointed you to one. And its free. You're going to do real well here. ;-)
The problem is that no one is actually answering the issue they are more concerned that I have male plants. Well I was told they were female by another person that tried to act like a pro. Calling it her strain. I have since learned it was her second grow. Her first one she bought regular seed from a seed bank and sexed them as females and through out males. Got seeds from those plants and gave me some and showed me this picture as to how to sex them. Since at 2.5 weeks mine were elongated looking then I figured they were females as she had supposedly sexed the seeds to be. Knowing now that she had seeds from her harvest I know why it wasn't potent and that she selected males and passed down the seed to me to raise males. Which is fine. She was being nice. She didnt know what she was doing. No big deal.he's got them up on a diff post.... he is running 2 posts and guys ...... he's old and you can tell it was going ok , shit happen and now he is here...
