First grow... a disaster?

[klondike_bar]

Im in the middle of my first grow, and ive had tons of problems. Hell if you dont believe me go check the plant problems board and you'll find posts by me all over it. Like the others have said its a learning experience, i think alot of us enter into this thinking "hey its a weed, that shit grows anywhere, this cant be that hard" then reality slaps us in the face and we see how difficult it really can be. Anyways keep at it, i know i will, as we have no where to go but up ^^.

i have to disagrree. my last plant would go 5 days without water. the reason it died is i overwatered it out of love for a long weekend

SWIM started out with 10 seeds, white widow mind you. 6 of them germinated. 4 of those became female plants. Due to some extensive constraints (stealth) 3 of those were executed, kitchen sink style. Now theres one left. And the yield is probably going to be an ounce dry. All this time and effort just to get one ounce? I feel almost kinda, bad. :( Rating: 5

disagree with what...im confused :wtf:

Im still pretty noob at all of this, but im pretty sure a single overwatering wouldnt kill your plant...i mean if it did flushing the soil would kill your plant too and thats a nessecery part of soil growing.

well i gave it 5cups of water rather than standard 3 which always dries after 2 days.

plus, container had no bottom holes, else it may have been saved

but i think that if you have a solid strain, you could plant it in almost any habatible conditions and barely touch it from start to finish. (yield wouldnt be as good of course)

that may be true but still i think alot of first growers enter into growing thinking its alot easier then it really is, and thats the point i was trying to make. Not that you have to baby your plants to get maxium yield.

yeah, but thats with any plant. try growing grass seed, even that wont grow sometimes
