it definitely is. when I look back on my grow there is already a bunch of things I would do differently. with set up. nutes. cleanliness. trimming. timing. lighting. air flow etc. but I think I've done a pretty good job for my first grow (except for this little hangup ). I was strapped for cash so I had to budget my materials. I built a room 8x8. I went to home depot bought a door with frrame dry wall and some 2x4's and made it. then I searched online and found a guy selling his 400 watt mh / hps w/ supersun hood for $150. then I went to a hardware supply store and bought six buckets and lids and six air pumps airstones and tubing. my grow set up would have cost be around $7-800 but I got everything for $300 for everything except for the clones cost me about $100 for six. but next grow I will have more supplies and definitely a whole lot more knowledge. this site has helped me gain and understand the knoledge needed to be a successful grower.
