oh and am i getting this right...youve never even smoked before?

if so...wow you are in for a journey. you probably dont know the first thing about a cannabis plant or anything. wow.

my best advice...start reading. google "how to grow weed" and read as many of the pages as you can.

and read this forum. read all the threads you can. then ask your questions. people will be more helpful if you try to find the answer first by reading. people ask the same questions over and over again, when they could just use the search function and try to find the answer.

but anyways, i wish you best with your first grow. keep us updated.
