OMG!!! So true, I'm still getting the timing figured out after more than a year.

1,000 foot banner with that on it would be great!

I love it analog!

The hardest part is the patience, especially when you want to do everything NOW!

Indicapro- If you have decent soil, and you have decent light, and you're getting the seeds to germinate, and your temps are under 95 and above 60, all you need to do to care for a plant is to water it when it is out of water (maybe 1-2 times a week). This will get you through about 3 weeks of growth and several sets of leaves before you need to do anything else.

I would suggest starting with a small grow first to get all the failures out of the way (there will be some) and then once you have honed your skills a bit think about moving to a larger scale grow. Hopefully all that money is not wasted and you can get a bud or two for your 9500 dollars

Patience is a killer. So is worrying.

I often feel like a dad who's young daughter is dating Bruce Willis - worrying all the time about my girl (plant).

Successful experience breeds confidence. Keep the faith. Unless you're the 49'ers (at which point golf is better).

This Will work for you...

Use F.F.O.F. soil (its already p.h. balanced)

Buy p.h. tester... Water,nutes all at 6.5p.h.

Feed only when they start to show you any signs of needing it.

The idea is that the soil is at the right p.h.(no guessing) as long as you check your p.h. of water(nutes) you know that your p.h. is in check(very important).

Now that leaves you with when to feed and water. As long as you dont over-feed or water you should be right on your way to smoking bud.

Indoor growing is a reality... Once you learn it you will be greatly rewarded.

And of course Pataince is a must.

Nutes such as Flora Nova Grow and Flora Nova Bloom are ph balanced.

Always though, ph balance your water, add your stuff then ph it afterwards as well. The goal for watering soil is 6.5.

Keep everything as simple as possible. Start small. Go from there.

And keep a journal so people can answer questions and give advice. I'm still on my first grow and everything I know I owe to this place and it's inhabitants.

I only read one. I picked up a lot from this website, both by reading old threads and asking questions.

Wow! That's like a first-time cook attempting a twelve course dinner.

I've spent a total of $1,600 on construction, seeds, consumables, and electricity. My first grow of seven plants produced 23 oz of some of the finest weed I've ever smoked. With all of the permanent stuff in place, my second grow should cost less than $800.00.

In conclusion, it's not a myth. Follow instructions. Don't over/under water. Put in the right nutrients at the right times. It works! $70/oz for KB. Priceless!

check out my grow if you need some inspiration. first grow ever for me, its indoor and it uses more light in a smaller space than most here. im going for big yield out of 5 plants and we'll see how it goes. if youve done as much research as you say and you have all the equipment then you know where the grow is falling short, the human factor.....

i get the feeling he's given up and gone by now

indicapro

yes yes yes, since i took over my brothers grow op ( not quite near 9500 bucks more like 2,000 bucks)

any way i been growing for a while at east 5+ years and my brother ( the reall indicapro, i use this handle now cuz he just is the checker upper now )

the probelm he was having was he bought the recipee for succes kit, but it was really really old and the thrive alives went bad and thats what he was using for a pre soak before planting germinated seeds into the medium.

so i now run the operation and had to let him fuck himself up at first cuz he was getting a little too cocky with his attitude.

he got a settlement for a lot of money and told me in a somewhat joking/ballbreaking manner that after he gets his shit setup he will out-yield me by many many ounces of bud, which he would, being that i grow using only a 600 watt hps for flower, i would hope so, right.

but no he didnt and within a month he was asking me to help him out and i quite naturally did, as i love my brother but he needed to bump his head a little ya know.

but he is learning that you dont just follow directions and thats it, no no.....you need the experience that comes only with a handfull of good harvest under your belt.

he more or less is like nancy's son, on WEEDS, and im like his conrad.lol

so thats where we are at. he has had me holding his for the last 2 grows in his spot. and imma let him go on his own now, and he is ready for it.

now i can get back to my personal garden. and he is over at icmag, and im over here at the cure.


so please all here im not the original indica pro, im really a cannabis pro. and will be using the name indicapro here. so dnt fret guys wehn i post you are not getting amatuer opinions from a newbie grower. but great learning experience's from a pretty seasoned cannabis cultivator. dont get me wrong i am not a know it all self proclained expert, arogant, or closed minded to others ideas or theories. im still learning something new all the time.

Gotcha.
