well, i wouldn't do azures for my first attempt at cultivating. you should start with something easier.
but here are some links anyhow.

I have an Elixer print that I ordered before I knew what the hell I was doing. Someday I will make an outdoor bed!

Plenty of people grow them around here, but most grow them outside. Only a few have grown them successfully indoors. Just do a search.

Im not so much interested in how to grow them at all, I just want to know if it is a potent strain or not. I searched it before i posted this thread but found nothing.

Do some research on the strain... if you're not confident about growing them (they aren't considered 'newb friendly' from what I understand...), I'm sure you could get a really good deal for them in the marketplace.
If you decide to change strains (I've seen a few posts with folks looking for azures... you could probably get a few cube syringes for it), make sure you deal with an experienced, long-term member so you get what you're supposed to and have a well made syringe in exchange

The potency? Well, I've had wild azures, not sure if they were hammond strain, but they were very potent, strongest trip I've ever had, (but I also ate more then I ever have). You won't be dissapointed, if you can grow them, wich is fairly difficult from what I've read , good luck.

I really want to grow these, Ive researched this strain on google and found many websites saying they are very potent. I am going to grow in a woodbased grow bag. How hard is it to screw up? I have the sterilization, temp, and humidity covered.. but what else could I screw up in? What makes this strain more difficult/different than others?

You should consider doing a grow log if you go ahead with it. Not only could the gang help out along the way but lots of us would learn in the process...
If it's too much, I totally understand, just thought it would be cool...

Okay today I bought disinfectant spay, a heat pad for a lizzard tank, alcohol whipes, and iodine. I proceeded to squirt 3cc's of the hammond syringe into the bag I had (the dictections told me to do 3cc's). Being a newb I accidently squirted in 5cc's... dunno if this will make a difference or not. I put the heat pad onto a book and put a cardboard box on the heating pad. I made sure and sprayed everything in my closet, the pad, and the box with the disinfectant spray and let dry. I put the grow bag into the box and put 2 glasses of water into the box and added iodine to the water because I read somewhere here that it cleans the water and helps fight bad bacteria. I will try and put the pictures on here now.
I dont know what's wrong with the pictures but if you right click then click "show picture" it works
If it still doesnt work go to my overgrow gallery here

True.

So Im basically screwed? I read that website you gave me but so many people on different websites telling me I wasted my money... I just want a yes or no answer so I can throw this stuff out and order the proper materials.
