FERT- sounds good... start slow... If you are half as analytical as you say you are.. then you will see when your plant asks for more FERT (specifically NITROGEN) Keep close eye on PH.

Start with 3-5 gallon pot and take her to the end...It really is that easy!! Especially if you water propoerly... "soak - dry -soak - dry- Good soil and perlite mix!!!

Vegging- really depends on your light set up.. If you are growing with a 1000watt bulb - flat garden - light overhead, then you should flower between 12-20 inches...

If you are going to go XXX, hardcore, balls to the wall, Zandor style (insane side lighting) then you can grow your ladies 3 feet tall.

I would recommend you grow until they are 16 inches tall... Clone the SHIT out of them...let them grow for 7 more days.. and then flower them....

If you veg till 3 feet you will be fucked , cause the plants will grow another 2-3 feet througout flowereing.. And then, abut 2 weeks into flowering your plants will either fall over, or be so dense that light won't reachthe bootom buds.. not to mention you are askig for bugs and mold and other petulance found in the bible.. LOL

Congrats to your first grow..now go plant yer shit

LOVE

Garden Knowm Reviewed by Garden Knowm on . Newbie pre-grow (Pot size, Nutes,etc.) So you know I am analytical person by nature System Analyst by trader. I do al ot of research before I do something. I don't blindly post without reading on it first. This is my contribution for newbies, because I am a newbie and I thought it might help someome else or some with more experience can help me. I am reading INDOOR MJ HORT by Jorge Cervantes. Good book, but it gets confusing and for newbies it has MORE INFO THAN YOU WILL EVER NEED, he gets technical. But I guess that is why he grows Rating: 5
