When I decided to go ahead and get involved in growing,I made the decision to learn everything I could for the first month before I grew my first plan. I still made mistakes like not watering h till I had a little run off so I ended up with I going into nutrient deficiency. But for all I messed up on this, the next plants I’ll know. But this hobby has been a blessing.

I’m competitive with myself, love to see very vibrant plants. So even though all that that is written, and I agree, it’s worse than having teeth pulled seeing your work lacking. This tent stuff is maddening. Too long outdoors for me.

I don’t trust anybody enough to grow outdoors neighbors are nosy, and there’s no guarantee that they wouldn’t snatch it in the middle of the night

I hear ya. Mine are very old. Inside most always or gone. One has outside wood boiler. The others (keep to themselves) are big smokers. All giving me cover. I’ve climbing beans and huge 6’ tomato plants too. As of now you’d have to be standing on top to see them. Smell isn’t to bad. YET! Too many of us in the neighbor problem category!

I like what I heard one other grower say, sorry I cannot remember who exactly, and it is that your next grow will be better than your last. And it makes sense cause as you continue you build up your own personal knowledge bank along with what works for you, it will get better and better. Kinda exciting cause when you have a harvest and you finally get it dried and cured and you get to try it out and you think, hey this is pretty good … just wait till the next one

We all feel that way. For me, I can “master” my “grow techniques” for a strain, or the common strains I grow, then I get seeds from a new strain that I’ve never grown.. AND… my “tried and true” techniques… have me back “at the drawing board” learning how to grow that “new” strain.
So my best advice… do your homework on strain-specific growing techniques. Some articles will tell you if the strain is easy to grow or more difficult to grow. So keep that in mind when selecting your strain.
