Okay, i'm gunna start a growers thread for Cannabis, I'm a very novice grower (Sadly i'm afraid my plants are going to die) Because i have no room to grow them, there on my windowsill and i can't plant outside nor allowed to get a growers light. So i'm probably going to have a few dead plants soon, I'll update soon enough. Post here with questions/logs about growing your very own babies :v:
I tried growing some bagseed once but none of them germinated, one of these days I'll get round to growing.
I have a container probably full of 150 bag seeds..... Maybe one of them will grow?
Got 3 fem seeds left that I'm gonna grow with my best friend, should yield some awesome

SWIM (Obviously) is currently growing 4 plants, out of a total planted of 6, I'm hoping the two that didn't come up are the Chronic Fruity Fem and a Lowryder, since the Chronic Fruity requires a different light cycle for flowering, while Lowryder flowers independantly of light cycles (5 were Lowryder, 1 was Chronic Fruity) They're currently 1-2 weeks into growing, and 3 of them are currently about ~2.5 inches high, maybe more, while one of them (planted later) is currently only just 2cm, maybe 3cm. Hopefully I'll get at least a minimum yield of 10g of each plant, and I'm guessing that at least 1 will probably die, so I'm hoping for a 30g yield at the moment.
Finished my harvest for the year, grew 5 ak-47's and 5 white widows. Ended up with an ounce per plant because they were just little autoflowers.

I'm planning on growing soon, what do you guys think of this guide? [url]http://hightimes.com/grow/ddanko/3873[/url] I think I'm going to follow it, except I'm not sure about all the other factors that the article failed to mention, like lighting cycles, etc.
[QUOTE=Transverse;29239055]You didn't label them?[/QUOTE] No because I'm an idiot
I grew some outside but planted them way too early, ended up growing for about 6 months before they budded and they were both about 6ft. Unfortunately because of the shitty weather and shitty grow techniques one of them took ages to grow/bud and the frost made the actual buds go black. Got around 2 ounces from the other plant which was awesome and it tasted really good. Might try it again this year but does anyone know how to get plants to bud quicker by using natural light? (Plants in the UK bud in September which is way too late because the weather gets really cold in the following months)

Question: Do CFLs just use regular light sockets?

Have about 3 Diesel Lowryder plants which are nearly 4 weeks old. Also my first grow ever using a light.
My friend may give me a grow light for my closet, My plants are 3 weeks old, they are growing slowly. sadly. but This is my first time. So woot!
[QUOTE=Fata;29240136]Question: Do CFLs just use regular light sockets?[/QUOTE] Yes, you can also use a socket adapter and then you can plug it right into a power strip / extension cord.

i'm going for low budget scrog grow, first time as well, doing it indoors in a rather small box hope it will work :) got 80% of the box built now just need to build the screen and get seeds and lamps
this thread is totally useless without pictures, just saying i would be so down to contribute, but Im certainly not in any position to grow
[img]http://kamshak.com/img/IMG146.jpg[/img] [img]http://kamshak.com/img/IMG145.jpg[/img] As you can see i'm not really good with wood but the thing kind of looks like a box and doesn't have any larger gaps. I used old wood so it was completly free for now :) I'll probably order the light and air stuff tomorrow
I once grew a couple of plants from seeds that I got from bird food. They were both male plants though, and didn't have many branches/leaves. :( Also, for anyone growing indoors. Have you insulated the place so police choppers can't spot all the heat emitted by the lights?

I really want to try outdoors again, so much weed at the end if it goes well, low risk (not on your property) and if it doesn't work you only lost £20 on seeds which would only get 2 grams of bud anyway.

Have you insulated the place so police choppers can't spot all the heat emitted by the lights?[/QUOTE] Bird food will just have hemp seed in it (hemp strains=no THC=no high), to avoid police the main stuff I've heard is to not grow in garages or lofts (cupboards are good), and don't tell anyone you're growing, and don't steal the electric.
I've read that there's some insulation stuff that keep most of the heat in, but that stuff is pricey. But I gotta agree. Guerilla growing seems the best option. Especially if you live in a country/state with a decent climate. But in eastern/western European climate it's possible.
id guerilla grow but i dont know any places that wouldnt get found and looted

What do you mean by "computer grow"? Also, I suppose the best way to find a spot to grow is to take walks, and keep your eyes open.

inside a computer case im assuming
got 12 seeds under my speakers waiting for the heat to come back
