Hello, I am looking to start growing my 6 plants. This will be my first time growing, I have no equipment, and I was wondering if someone could recommend a reputable grow store to procure a basic setup. Or is my best bet going to craigslist? Thanks in advance for your help.
craigslist man. i have New Complete beginner's setups for $275. you have to search denver craigslist as i cannot provide a link here.
you can use "Complete beginner's grow" as your search terms and it will pull right up
Google search for Hydroponics and Gardening stores in your area.
Everything you need for a decent harvest can be bought at hydro shops and a hardware store.
I see that thread, and it's a great deal. Do you have multiples? I will be in the market for that exact package times 2 or 3 in a month or so.Quote:

Actually, IMO, canaguy's listing is pretty sweet. It kinda makes me wish I lived in that locale.
I have 6 setups left.Quote:

meded is a hell of a drug
If I had it to do over again I would save a lot of time and money by avoiding automatic watering/hydroponics and just grow in dirt and hand watering. I know commercial growers who hand water so with only 6 plants it should not be a problem. I also wish that I had just gone for 1000 watts instead of the 600 that I bought.
Pay attention to temperature and ventilation. Winter is great for a first grow as you won't have to worry about it getting too hot in your grow room.
Good luck and have fun!
Not sure why the grow stores would be offended by what you call the I'm all legal attitude - because guess what - we are all legal now. It is a relief not to have to talk in code about tomatoes and peppers any more.Quote:

As a result, national distributors are being forced to ensure there is no discussions referring to federally illegal products.
Just refer to them as growing tomatoes, and you'll be fine. Mention 'medical' or 'marijuana' and expect to be shown the door, because being arrogant about being 'legal' is not a positive quality. Whatever money you think you'll spend isn't worth losing a vendor contract, so as a patient, get over yourself. Educate yourself.
