Guys we have a jumper!

I love the enthusiasm!

You can start today it's not that hard. All you need are seed, soil, lights and a spot.

As far as seeds go you can usually get seed for free if you ask around. I discourage new growers from spending money on seed. Grow a couple of plants first then you should have enough knowledge to make your investment worth while.

Soil can be bought at local retailers, read up on soils all you like. Fox Farms is a name brand you will hear a lot.

Lighting is a topic we could discuss all day. For a first time grower I would suggest going with a cfl set up. cfl's can be had pretty cheap these days. Kelvin (k) ratings give a full spectrum as well. Look for 6500k to veg 2700k to flower. You will be able to grow and learn with this set up. Once you decide to upgrade to bigger better lights and start buying seed you should have the knowledge to make the upgrade viable.

The spot is totally up to you. A square closet, about 3x3 could grow one pretty nice plant with proper training. A grow box or tent in a spare room would house even more but more money as well.

They were grown naturally by accident! :D, from some mixed bird seed outdoors in UK 9 plants in total all at various different heights. Unfortunately they had to be dug up and binned, but 7 made it back in pots to a back garden. Only have 3 to 4 viable ones left and not sure if they will amount to anything. I'm not quite sure how to proceed. I'd like to keep one if I can and am thinking of maybe gifting others to a friend who Rating: 5
