Newbie lookin for some help

[tripleblack]

Before you have a go, i have trawled through threads upon threads and used the search engine to gather info on growing, however i'm still a bit confused.

Does anyone have any recomendations on a step by step grow guide or dvd or better still something off the internet that they swear by for growing. Something which will also help me to set up my grow room?

Haven't yet decided on soil or hydro.

Cheers in advance.

are you doin like two plants or two hundred? i would say just jump into it and do the trial and error thing. if there's something wrong with your plant, you'll know it, and cannabis.com people will help you out with it.

Yes!!!
For grow guides, there's a bunch of stuff scattere around this site.
Harris7 just posted a bunch of really neat papers in the cultivation forums in the past week or so... good reading.

My best advice is this:

Start with a good soil and everything will just be SOOOO much easier.

Avoid pre-ferted soil, or soil with a high conc. of peat in it, but even 'topsoil' or 'garden' soil from the hardware store can get you going!

yea i got a grow book and i'm sure there are a lot of good ones. but unless your investing a lot of money and are very lazy (thus not wanting to find everything on net). you should be fine.

the guides i posted are good. but they are rather high level and go into detail you may not be interested in.
zandor posts a great grow podcast thing which is very interesting.

here are two good online sources. you can spend hours and hours reading there and you will learn a lot.

make sure you research your purchases. I would say that when people compromise on a purchase (to save money) it's usually were they fuck up

Oh, and don't be scared to fuck up a plant or two along the way man, thats how you learn.

Use that site to find out what's wrong with your plants, if you find anything that looks funky, dead, browning, slumping, etc. It's very helpful.

Thanks guys, that's a great help. I have listened to zandors pods and they are funny and helpfull at the same time but i feel i may need to learn basics first, those links should help. :thumbsup:

I only really have the room to grow 2 maybe 3 plants. I am only interested in growing for my own personal use, and it looks like a fun hobby! :stoned:

My main concern is my location of my proposed growroom. It's a small shed outside, it will have power and lighting for everything i need but i am worried the temp may drop quite low over the winter when lights are off. Is this a problem and if so what is the workaround?

Thanks as always,

TB
