Wonder no more.

Which is for what?
Errr...
Can I flower with MH?
You sure can.
What does 12/12 mean?
12 hours on, 12 hours off (light).
Can I grow hydro in soil?
No. Hydro is another world compared to soil. For a start, hydro doesnt use soil!
What's a CFL?
Compact flourescent - a type of bulb.
What does "CFM" mean?
???
How can I germinate?
Get some paper towel/cotton wool, dampen it, stick seed inside in a warm, dark place for 24-48 hours. Place between two upturned saucers. Sometimes takes up to a week.
How do I clone?
Cut a fan leaf with a couple of inches of stem, dab some rooting powder/gel on the end, plant, wait.
What does a male look like?
Males have balls, females have pubes. See pic.
Can I smoke males?
Yes, but youll need a lot of leaf and you wont get very high, if at all. Try cooking or making hash with males instead.
Which are the best nutrients?
Something with NPK levels of 15-30-15, 10-20-10 etc.
What does pH stand for?
Potential Hydrogen.
Why did my MH explode in my HPS ballast?
Because you need to buy a seperate ballast for HPS and MH. You can get ballasts that will take both bulbs. Another reason could be that the wattage of the bulb was too high for the wattage of the ballast.
How do I build a cool tube?
No idea.
Will the plants smell?
Yes, unless you build/buy a carbon scrubber, or you grow Lowryder.
Can I smoke the leaves of my 2week old plant?
If you want something that wont get you high in the slightest, yes. At 2 weeks of veg, NO trichomes are in the plant.
HOW MUCH WILL I HARVEST?
Depends on light, temps, nutes, strain... But with good care, anywhere between 14 grams and 4 ounces.
Can I grow under a skateboard?
Youre a retard.

You can get CO2 blocks which dissolve in water and provide high CO2 levels for 8 hours.
Why doesn't anybody reply?

No, but its nice to let them listen to some Bob Marley.
Can I grow under my bed?
Sure. As long as you have CFL's and LST the plant, you can train it to grow sideways.
Why 18/6?
Provides the plant with a cool down session (dark period), and the 18 hours of light has been proven to be the most efficient.
How many lumens/sq.ft.?

You people actually replied...
But hey, don't worry... if every newb read this thread, questions in the boards will go down a projected 98%.
Indeed, i wish people would read things like this, and grow FAQ's before posting new threads just to ask things like:
Is this female or male?
When can i harvest?
What lights shall i get?
Can i smoke males?
It doesnt bother me that much, but it gets to me sometimes.
A little reading can go a long way... :)

THAT's the thing!
I thought the same... man, I though:
I was also a newb... don't be rude... help them out...
But after one reads the same fucking question, posted THREE fucking times in EVERY fucking sub-section of the boards, every 3 weeks, one wants to snap and kill the newb.
Most impressive, to me, is when there's a question posted, and the dude comes in and posts the SAME question... Or when they post the same question in ALL sections... WAIT 24HOURS FOR AN ANSWER!!!
Again, it's great to help people, especially newbs that you can help start something... that is VERY rewarding... but man, for my mental sanity's sake, something has to be done...
