Where to start with Marijuana
    #23612108 - 09/04/16 05:37 PM (7 years, 5 months ago)

So I've been growing mushrooms for a couple years, and now that I've finally got the hang of it, I've realized that unless I grow very rarely or just give most of them away, I'm often going to be overflowing with mush.

But Ive gained a lot of love for growing, and I want to keep growing something, so I think it's time to start attempting some marijuana cultivation.

Anyone know where to start reading? I feel like I could have saved a lot of time learning mushrooms if I had know where to start, I wish I skipped PF Tek completely and just went to agar and tubs.

Any advice for someone who's never grown weed before and wants to get into it?

This forum has a sister called the Growery.  I'd start there.  As here, the sheer amount of information is a bit daunting.

why not start a garden, or grow edible mushrooms? growing legal, non-drug things is fun too

I haven't grown cannabis (ie. disregard the following opinion) but I've found reading books and other communities far more informative than the growery.

And what about cultivating those sweet sweet plants that are both drugs AND legal :grin:

Growing oyster/shitake mushrooms for profit is extremely lucrative on paper, as long as you live in a decently large city demand will always exist and prices stay relatively constant due to the difficulties in oyster/shitake farming scalability, specifically transport/storage logistics.

I do feel you. Sweet talk, steak, then lobster and Gucci, it's a recipe for perfect weed.

I live in a pretty small town, so I doubt my ability to find much business for that, but honestly it's just really fun to grow your own drugs. I've grown some lions mane and reishi before, but it's just so much less rewarding. For like a month of mushroom work you get a couple tasty meals, opposed to like enough mushroom to trip ~100 times+

I've considered trying to sell some lions mane or oyster mushrooms, but is it actually lucrative? It seems like more trouble than it's worth for ~6 dollars a lbs

Most of Ed Rosenthal's books are dirt cheap now. I recommend picking up a couple on Amazon and reading the hell out of them. That will give you a pretty good starting point. Just like mushrooms, experience is a great teacher and has no substitute.

Once they reach a certain size they will have preflowers that you can compare to pics online, and then make cuttings of the female ones if desired (and ditch the male ones unless you want seeds).

A key thing to be aware of is day length, they grow vegetatively with long days and flower with short days. If you were to plant them outside in the fall, they would start flowering from a small size and not yield as much as they could have.

Thanks for the info, after reading a little, I think I can tell a male and female plant apart :strokebeard:

I'd probably be growing them inside, it's quite cold where I live. so I can regulate the day length artificially. But thanks for the the heads up about the impact of day length, never heard that before.

Are you in a legal/ med state? If you can get a cutting for a decent price that would be the simplest place to start. Indoor cuttings is the way to go for consistency. If you just want to grow cannabis and don't care about big yields getting a small grow tent could be worth it. Or converting a closet like space into a little grow area.

Once of the first things you should consider is the size of the grow you want to start. Depending on the room size and plant/ pot size you will want different strength lights probably. From there you could choose to keep it simple/ cheap and just get decent sized pot/s light/s and soil and perhaps some ferts depending on the soil, or if you have a lot of $ and want to do it thoroughly and set up a nice room you could invest in more stuff.

Probably smart to start as cheap/ simple as possible at first to decide if you want to keep at it :shrug:

I am in Washington so legality isn't an issue. A family member tried growing 9 plants from cuttings last year, and we got plenty of weed, but I think most of them got infected with mildew, and the high from them was pretty terrible :lol:

Hopefully there will be at least pots and some other supplies left over I can use, I don't want to spend too much money for my first attempt.

I don't care much for huge yields (at least at first) I just want something I can put some love into and that will grow some tasty weed :jah:

I haven't looked at all the options yet, but so far I'm leaning towards a sea of green setup, I like the idea of smaller plants that will grow faster.

I'd like to start from seeds, so I can get a hang of the whole process, and I also read seeds tend to be more resistant to mold and the like, which apparantly might come in handy where I live.

Do you think the high was terrible becouse of the strain/ genetics or how it was grown? Improperly flushed bud can be really harsh/ unpleasant to smoke which can ruin the high in some ways. Mildew could just be a humidity thing or something, maybe they were over watered. If you don't care about big yields then small plants are probably the way to go. That way you won't be putting all your eggs in one basket so to speak.

I have heard the same thing about seeds being more resistant but I feel like that is more of a genetics/ health thing. I have seen cuttings in really pristine or poor health and the latter would be much more prone to issues like that. Seeds can just be expensive and take more time, cuttings aren't cheap either if you buy em from a store but they are much simpler propagation wise.

If you do start from seed you should consider taking the best looking plant/s and putting them back into veg to become mothers and clone.

I'm fairly certain it was how it was grown, the strains were like Dutch treat and cherry pie I think? But they were quite weak, and after the 3rd bowl you'd usually start to get a pretty nasty headache :sad:

And thanks for the tip, I might try to grow a mother or two from seeds, and then clone them, so I can get a feel for both.

Follow your instinct, do it your own way.  Buy clones from someone and plant in soil indoor or out.  You could get some plant growth formula liquid and seed food from a hydroponics shop.  Water it every time the soil starts to

dry out and even give it more water than that.  If you get a pot that doesn't have holes in the bottom the water will sit and the roots and soul will soak up the water and it needs less watering.  Simple hydroponic system where it's stagnant and doesn't flow so it's actually just constant attention with water to the roots and it shows in the plants leaves.  Get a nice light from a

hydroponics stores since you only have a few plants at first a small one work.  place it a foot above the plant and leave it on a lot.  during the day I generally turn it off for a time while at night it's on constantly.  Even a simple regular 120W light bulb with a regular lamp honestly works but the the plant won't be as big or bomb.  If it's outdoor during winter let the

rainwater soak into it and hose it down less.  The daylight will help it grow while starlight and moonlight does at night.  A powerful outdoor light meant to flood dark areas works wonders for outdoor plants in your back yard for some light at night.  Growing outdoor winter is a dare you task and i've done it and haven't had the satisfaction of testing my grow because of mysterious disappearances and such.  Good luck.
