Hey @George! Welcome to our home. We’ve all been there on the same learning curve that you find yourself on at one time. You have come to the right place. You have ventured into a world of super talented and intelligent growers that are equally generous with their knowledge and proven expertise. The best thing about them is they are the finest group of people I have ever known. I must say you have testiculado gigantes to start your cannabis growing journey in DWC! Stick around brother. You’re gonna like it here. One Love. Jah!

“super talented and intelligent growers” 
No doubt you’re a supporter! 
Just kidding, I second that. BTW, nothing especially remarkable down here 
, just started with DWC following LabRat’s advice and guidance: no need to arouse each day, I can control what she eats and drinks (no more nutrient burn), can be away some days without problem, no need to hire killer spiders against gnats (as Shadey does), no need to change from one pot to another bigger, no pests …
For me they are all advantages I don’t see disadvantages at all, I still make mistakes but now I know how to correct them, with more experience and your help it will be a piece of cake. Peace, bro …

I was active in the 70’s(hydroponics with colchicine treated seeds). I’m a retired secondary school chemistry/physics instructor.
Also, I taught electrical process controls(plc’s). Simple ladder logic(prox, photo eyes, contactors, etc) could ontrol a greenhouse using 12VDC controls and 12v grow lux lights. I can see the control circuit in my mind.

I’m a Canadian grower. I’ve been growing for 17 years now. I have 4 kids and a beautiful wife. I’m an ACMPR holder so don’t question my quantities hahaha… I love White Widows, anything old school and a variety of knock your f’ing socks off new stuff. I’m an original member from 2002 and learned the basics of growing from this very site. I believe in karma and will pass down my knowledge etc because I know my buds will grow bigger because of it 
only positivity, love and respect will come from me. This is my happy place.
