This sounds easier lol
Thank you im new to this so trying to learn
Youâre doing all right!
If you havenât done so, go to Introduce yourself and post something there! Welcome to OG!
No worries bud, just good practice to never post an address in the open. If you cannot PM than just tag someone and ask them to PM you. Just do that @Robert63 by adding @monkeyman name to the message with the @ symbol.
Welcome aboard @Robert63 - youâve found a very different group of people here - in the best sense!
Enjoy!
If I can give you my $.02 (kinda doing it anyway arenât I?).
I donât know your growing skill, but thereâs essentially step-by-step instructions in the grow journals section.
Spend some time there reading journals; find your grow style and potential strains if you donât have one. This way you can anticipate problems - temps / rh / pests / etc. and have a bit of a âblueprintâ to follow and youâll know the right people to ask (I donât answer a whole lot of outdoor questions - not where I grow).
A number of us - myself included - have PTSD in mind when selecting strains. PTSD/Anxiety, pain relief and gettinâ high are probably the most common strain selectors; so you shouldnât have much trouble finding seeds.
Can you tell us more about yourself? Are you:
Indoor / Outdoor? LED / HID / Sun (I always forget that one - Iâm indoor!)
Soil / Hydro
Total noob like I was / still am? Or an old pro getting back in?
Same - Iâm also an LED grower. I have random âburplesâ (red/blue based lights), name brand âburplesâ, and a custom Growdaddy rig. â Despite what a lot of people say, Iâm really happy with my burples; the GrowDaddy rig is just plain awesome, relatively budget friendly and WORKS.
That problem just ended. Next âissueâ - strain selection!
As I mentioned before - you can find grow âlessonsâ on indoor soil growing in the journals - hereâs mine (a mixed bag of how to & how-not-too:
One year before Covid, my business partner had a motorcycle accident and my business started to struggle - then Covid hit and I was done. - There are some expenses that canât be avoided, but most can be upgraded or grown into as you go (pun intended!).
Glad you found us! @DougDawson steered me here as well - true OG spirit in that guy!
My Wife & I both deal with PTSD, old injuries coming back to say âhi!â and new ones that donât heal the way the did half a lifetime ago. So far, Iâve grown Kush - strawberry & OG - since starting and can say that they work pretty well for PTSD - but over-indulgence can be counter-productive.
(once you have an abundance of weed on-hand, over-indulgence isnât hard to doâŚ)
GL on your efforts - canât wait to read about you sampling what YOU grew for yourself!
Welcome to OG @Robert63. There is no shortage of generosity here. Ask & you shall receive, seek & you will find.
Just wanted to give a big thank you to @DougDawson from all of us here at OG.
Canât wait to make some PPPPlatinum Dosidos, ectoplasm cookies (PPPxSlyme cookies), and blurpleberry auto
Thanks bud. Pollen hit the mail today
Youâll be a pro soon enough.
Iâm an LED grower from day 1, never grown under HPS. All I know is theyâre orange and hot!
BUT I also know that nearly every LED out there compares itself to a â600w HPSâ.
You have a light that is WELL known - pro and con - so plenty of info on how to maximize it and get yourself some meds.
Youâre well on your way.
Hi there and welcome to the best place to be online!
