ok, before i ask i would just like to say i have already used the search engine, but didnt come up with a sufficient answer. i also read through the posts in this forum to try to find out. ok here it goes................
i was wondering how many of you have had problems with grow kits, FOLLOWING the instructions? i read a recent post in wich someone simply didnt follow the instructions. its not as though i want alot of fun guys, i figure i would be lucky to get 15g from a kit....i like the simplicity of a kit, and i was just wondering if in the long run, they are worth it......or, if i should take a little more time, and just go with the PF Tek? Thank You, and sorry for the bother, but i have to start somewhere...........

Start with the PFTek. Kits are a waste of money.

It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis "I would rather be exposed to the inconveniencies attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it." - Thomas Jefferson

If you buy a kit you'll grow a few goodies (maybe), but when they're gone you'll be right back where you started. Do it yourself and with a little practice you'll have an endless supply. 
Go with the PF tek.

PF tek, if it wasn't for the tek most of us wouldn't be here.

Dont waste your money on a kit. Start with PF tek and dunk your cakes.

Yeah, i decided to go with the pf tek. already have everything except spores, went to the hardware store and bought jars, and substrate stuff as well. where should i get spores anyway? i figured TheLittleGuy would be a good choice, given the high rating.......What strain is best for a first timer? a few years back i was going to grow, and i was going to use pc amazonian or something like that, but i never did do it.
