lots of questions... you should get a book... it will make your life so much easier

1. N/P/K = 20/20/20 it is the fert ratio - This is fertilizer terminology. â?? N means Nitrogen. P- means Phosphorus and K- means Potassium. When fertilizers are listed on the label they are always in this order and the number means the % of each element. In other words a 10-15-10 fertilizer contains 15% Nitrogen, 15% Phosphorus and 10% Potassium.

2. keep it warm, dark, moist... this is ideal... but not mandatory, except for the moist part...

3. no need to grow to 4 feet tall.. 1-5 gallon pots are fine. find a good soil mixture , only water when top 2-3 inches are bone dry... when you do water.. flood the plant... flower when you plant is 12-20 inches tall

4. you will need to get a book (or search on line) and find the proper fert ratio for your plant...... become familiar with NPK, PH and PPM....

5. YES get HPS.. minimum 400watt

6. plant will reveal its sex when the plant has 3-5 nodes... female has white hairs... male has "balls" they look like little rose buds.... you'll KNOW

7. BOOK : )

8-9-10 - you will cut the plant down and hang it... you can trim the plants before they are dry or after... plants will be dry and ready to smoke in 7-29 days...

drying plants can really stink., especially when you disturb them...when you pick them and prune them and harvest your goodies it will STINK real real BAD... like your house got sprayed by a skunk.....


these are just the basics.... good luck

(I was lead to believe its the soil:fert:sand/perlite ratio. Please correct me if I'm wrong.) 2. What is the best way to germinate a seed? 3. How big of a pot would I need to grow about a 4 or so foot plant? 4. The local shop around here has the Rating: 5
