Simple and Easy Cannabis Grow...?
    #7257650 - 08/03/07 11:10 PM (16 years, 7 months ago)

Can somebody give me how to grow cannabis in a nutshell?

Soil- Potting soil from HomeDepo? No hydroponics for me... Does that matter?
Light-How bright? How long? What kind?
Air- Humidity? Wind? Will a closet work?
Water- How often? How much?
Ferts- Do I have to use them?
Seeds-Genetics? Something more?

Am I forgetting anything?

Anything Else?

I see all these articles and threads on growing pot...


Is it really that complicated?

If I meet the six above criteria will I have some dank bud?

Looks like you have to do a little more research. There's no fast and simple way to growing good cannabis. You also have to think about your security first of all; and you'll need to spend a couple hundred bucks. Otherwise, you'll probably end up with schwag. Take a look around GrassCity, they helped me with my grow.

really a few hundred bucks?

How easy is it to not get caught?

Heres what I'm thinking-

Don't tell a soul (but my wife)
Don't let anybody in the room that leads to my grow closet
Keep the grow closet locked with a deadbolt which only i have the key to.
Don't sell it (it's for personal use)

that should keep me safe right?

I also wanna have shrooms and peyote in the closet with the pot, will the same lights and condtions be fair for all?

How many plants would I need to smoke 7grams of bud a month?

How bad are the charges for getting caught with enough plants to supply me with 7gs a month...?

Look up starved lst'ed weed plant (its one that i posted earlier), thats what happens whenever you starve the plant by not using nutes. It has pics of before and after ferting.

I also wanna have shrooms and peyote in the closet with the pot, will the same lights and condtions be fair for all?......Not gonna happen.


How many plants would I need to smoke 7grams of bud a month?.....7 grams a month? Just buy it that isn't worth the risk. The answer is the bottom half of one branch for 7 grams a month.

How bad are the charges for getting caught with enough plants to supply me with 7gs a month...?........Depends on where your at. On the East Coast they don't play around. On the west Coast the cops would laugh at you till you felt so embarrassed you would punish yourself. :stoned::wexican::getstoned:

Ok so apparently it would only take 1 really good plant to be smoking 7gs a month... right?

I mean how much jail time could that equate to if it was a first charge?

And how could they find out if I didn't tell anybody?

What plants do well in cannabis conditions?

Would cannabis grow well in a green house?

This ones about inside growing
Quote:


By : Lady Zandra
http://www.marijuanagrowing.eu/cannabis21300.html

I've been telling MANY new growers who want to grow "undetected" in their closet , but don't know what they need or where to start.... there are a few things to consider before ya even start buying anything......


IF you are New to Growing...
OR IF You want to grow in your home without roomies/family knowing...

You REALLLY NEED TO KNOW:

1st-- go up top and read ALL the stickies & info there-- and check out the tutorial board (not submission) And read the sticky "How to find what I need on the boards"!

2nd-- make a list of all the stuff ya think you'll need, then come and ASK if theres anything missing....

3rd-- figure out your budget-- and what you can use within that budget to have a successful grow...

4th-- realize the need for space! ONE adult plant can get to 6+ feet in height and up to 3 feet across (width)
even plants (from seeds) will get at LEAST 2 feet tall and wide---because seedling continue to grow even after put into bud cycle---unlike CLONES, which stay smaller.
realize each mature plant needs a 5-gallon planter-- or smaller plants will need eithe a community bin (18' x 3 ft 10+ gallons) for 3-5 small plants or 2 larger ones.

You will need to either line the closet with panda film, or mylar... or paint it white-- get lights(allow for the space for them!), planters/buckets, the right soil or hydro gear, nutes, ph/ec meters-or-kits, odor control, ventelation and fans etc.......
and seeds!

the most important part is knowing exactly what ya need to do step-by step AHEAD OF TIME so you don't get to a certain point and say "OH SHIT-- I don't have that!" and your plants suffer/die.


Also-- remember-- there will be sound, smell and lights comming from your closet-- so unless there is a lock on your door, and you have all the odor control you need and muffle the sounds .... and there are others living there-- they are gonna know!

Good Luck!
:wink:




About Outside

Quote:


By : Lady Zandra
http://www.marijuanagrowing.eu/cannabis21299.html

A REMINDER BEFOR YOU BEGIN:
Growing outside is RISKY...and worse if planting without permission on someone elses property. The charge of Criminal tresspass, and often Destruction of property is added... OR if it's your parents place, they can have their property confiscated... and Farmers have the tendencey to set booby traps or shoot tresspassers.

THAT SAID:
Lets Do Some Growing!

Remembber to read up on the strain you are growing, and understand the amount of bloom time it needs-- if you are in a short-summer area, stick with a short flowering strain!
Your seeds/seedlings will Veg until late Summer... then begin to bloom , and not be ready to harvest until near the 1st frosts in the fall..some even later-- so plan accordingly to either bring them inside, or tent them against the elemets if growing a long-blooming strain!

Do NOT wait until Summer to start your seeds if you wish to grow full-sized plants. They need at least 2 months of vegging time before bud... (example--USA & Canada, Bloom begins in early to Mid August...Harvest in October)

Your best bet is working from clones-- because you KNOW they are all female, well rooted, and allready leafed-out a bit .Cut them and start the rooting process at least 3-4 weeks before you plan to plant-- then follow the hardening-off process (see below)

But since most growers start with seeds....If at all possible--- start em in small planters under a tent outside...( see how at http://www.marijuanagrowing.eu/cannabis3176.html that way, they are allready "hardened-off" and won't scorch when you plant em in their permanant spots.
Pre-sprout and plant he seeds in small pots of seed-starter mix. put black plastic on the ground inside your tent (or cold-frame) and set the pots on the plastic. You can also run a drip-hose over the tops of the pots for easy watering!

IF tenting is not an option, start em inside-- preferably under a MH ...only because it is a stronger light and again, helps avoid sun-scorch....
But most folks start em inside under compact floro's (cfl's).
Keep the lights on 24 hours a day if using the CFL's, 18/6 with the MH-- they need as much light as they can get.... and no-- being under 24 hr light doesn't make em' stress when they go outside to day/night lighting.

What DOES stress em (and can kill them ) is sun-scald.
You can NOT take an indoor plant and plant it outside without 1st going thru the "hardening -off" process.

At least 10 days before you are ready to plant (check your local last-frost date and wait 1- 2 weeks after that!) you will start getting your gals used to the sunlight.
every day you will have to take them outside to a partially shaded area beginning with an hour the 1st 2 days, and gradually increasing until they are outside for at least 4 hours...
then will move to full sun for 2 hours, then 3 , then 4... then they are fine to plant.

But-- be sure the area they are to be planted in is allready prepped!
About 6 weeks ahead-- pick your spot.. look around.. what other plants are nearby to help camoflauge your full-grown (maybe 6 foot or better) plant?
Does the other vegetation have leaves year-round-- or drop their leaves..and if they drop em.. how early?? Ya don't want your plant the only green thing in a field of bare brush!
ALLWAYS try to space the plants 10-20 YARDS apart, and in with other vegetation so it won't be noticed from above!


And for ease of care-- your best thing to do is prep the area so well a few weeks ahead of time that ya don't have to worry 'bout it between visits..

3-4 weeks ahead, dig a hole 2 feet wide 1 foot deep for every plant-- removing all vegetation, roots etc... dump in some granular ORGANIC ferts at whatever stregnth the brand recomends for strawberries etc... (Espoma Flower-tone is GREAT stuff.. 100% Organic, Completely Balanced with Micronutes, and CHEAP AND available at almost any store!) also-- water crystals help outdoors so watering isn't as much of an issue-- just mix em in with the nutes.
Measure the nutes before ya leave into plastic bags so ya just dump it in!
Mix up the soil real well-- and leave!
If you don't get rain in the next 2 weeks- you'll have to water em at least 2x in 4 weeks.

Planting time, a couple hours ahead, spray your babies with no-wilt to help em survive any dry spells... then, go fluff the soil, and plant your baby in the middle of the prepped spot. Spray her with NEEM/Pyrethium (called Garden Safe or Safer brand.. or just check ingredients on organics sprays or fruit tree sprays.. look for pyrethrins at least-- or mixed w/ neem)

Next-- water em well-- this means luggingout a gallon of water per plant-- so usually people do 2 then go back a few hours later and do 2 more etc...
For help with Water retention (so don't have to worry about them dying of thirst between rains/waterings) if possible-- put 2inches of sand or peagravel, aquarium gravel etc...around the base of the plant (as well as using the water crystals when ya prep)
it helps keep weeds down and helps keep moisture around the roots longer.

for protection against animals there are "deer barrier" products, Garlic & Pepper sprays (see tutorial index!) and some pople will use a wick soaked Bobcat urin (from hunting supliers) around the plant (not too close!)
This keeps away the rodents as well. Or you can use other urine/cover scent from the hunting supplier in drip bags right near the grow-- same type of thing.

Remember...Every time ya go check em-- carry along the bug spray and animal deterant, as it has to be reapplied every couple weeks until they flower... then go with garlic/pepper on the plant to discourage deer.

If there has been no rain for more than 2 weeks-- stick your finger down in the soil-- if no moisture after the top 3 inches-- you'll have to water em...

when they start to Show sex in late summer--you'll have to kill any males ya got-- as pollen carries for miles and will pollenate every female around. You'll want to start fortifying their nutes every 2 weeks or so at this point... get some Booster or a blooming nute (from hydro shop or on-line.. something LOW in "N" but high in P-K)
mix at 1/3 recomended rate. into your gallon jugs and give one jug to each plant at least once every 20 days or so while flowering.

when flowering-- switch your bug repellant to something with just pyrethrins.. or the pistils will brown .. doesn't hurt the plant, just effects the bag appeal later.... AND makes rinsing the buds at harvest a nessesity.

Also very helpful, is for you to go to the tutorials and read the info on outdoor pest problems.

Thats it!

It's that time of year, and a lot of outdoor questions being asked..
so hope this helps!

:wink: LZ






Using CFL's
Quote:


By : Lady Zandra
http://www.marijuanagrowing.eu/cannabis23291.html
Keep seeing the question "how many do I use"??
The usual answer (and is right-- but not entirely helpful) As Many as You Can!

Often called "energy saving bulbs" CFL's use less wattage, put out little heat and are easy to find... but are NOT as efficient as HPS/MH... BUT ARE better than traditional "tube" flourescents...AND you CAN get a decent grow from them IF you use enough!

Heres a pretty easy way to figure the bare minimum in CFLs for your grow--start to finish....


never use any output smaller than 100w...
it's a waste of $$ and not efficient (uless ya allready have em-- then do the math and use the equivelent!)

HERE YA GO:
sprouts to 3 leafers--2 for up to 6 sprouts
3 leafers till 10-12 inches--1 per plant
10-12 inches till they go 12/12-- 2 per plant
12/12 till harvest-- 3 per plant, additional side/back lighting helpful

OR get the BIG CFL's That are 100-150w useage 500-600w output in a decent reflecter (These do NOT fit in household or regular fixtures!
You MUST get the special ones made just for them!) ...
and use 1 for every 2 - 3 plants

:wink: LZ
