Hi. I smoked a lot of weed in my teens and young twenties. When I moved from CA to VA, I quit for a variety of reasons. SInce then I have smoked once in a great while, when offered.
January 2017. I slipped on the ice and crushed my T11. After I left the hospital, I had part time time assistance. She mentioned to me that she had a neighbor of sold weed. I knew all about the benefits of CBD on a variety of illnesses and pain. So, I asked her if she would buy me a small amount. She did. Marijauna has changed a lot since I was smoking.
The weed made me pretty out of it with intense munchies. I didn't enjoy it and it did nothing for my pain.
My mother became very ill on Christmas day 2019. I flew to Portland, OR and spent a few weeks there. I went straight to the dispensary, bought flower and smoked the entire time I was there. I brought a small amount home in my luggage and was so sad when I ran out.
A couple months later, I went back to Portland to spend some time with her. When I came home I brought a teeny bit over an ounce.
I now would like to be able to grow enough weed for my personal use. My first plant was auto Amnesia haze, indoor. I was disappointed but I also made a lot of mistakes and learned so much.
My second plant is an auto Sour Diesel, she is just starting to grow. I have decided to change my grow area, painting with white reflective paint, relocating the light but not blacking out the room. Any opinons?
So glad to be here.
Susan

Welcome to the forum @Ms S :welcome:

Watch what you do in Va, I was stationed at Fort Story for awhile, didn't smoke then but a friend did, and they were arrested for "rolling papers" :thedoubletake::thedoubletake:

^That seems like something to consider, yikes!
There is a lot of information here poke around.
Come say hi to the others.
 
Welcome Ms S.
It is critical to black out the grow area .
Inside grow is very different than outside.
During “ lights out “ any light leak will most likely cause your plant to hermie.
Total darkness is required.
:goodluck:
With autos, it doesn't matter, they can have 24 hours of light and still flower...I give mine 18 hours of light :thumb:
 
Good start. Keep filling that pot up, its under filled imo, you could get something nice but a lot more roots with more soil = bigger yields. Smaller pots for sure if you're going to repot (me I dont) into a bigger container, really crazy stuff with photo periods. I use auto and I haven't heard anything about it acting negatively to light bleed and haven't experienced now, I have 2 weeks old getting 18 on and a simple barrier of particle board to block most of the light from the 12/12 flowering autos. I started getting some really great foxtail growth on all my plants flowering. Had 7 cut 2 today, 1 two weeks ago. Yes, I'm staging it out so I have clear-milky and milky-amber heavy as it goes along..anywho
Welcome good luck nice to meet you

Well I have not grown an auto yet so didn’t know that. Thanks for getting me straight.
I have some GG auto’s that I will try next month , but have not done all my research yet.
:Namaste:
If your doing fine with photos I'd stick with them myself. I wish I had enough head room for indoor photos man. These autos are a different beast and no where close to what you can get outside as far as yield. If I had 9 10 foot ceilings oh brother :oops: ;) good growing with ya

I know the draw backs to auto’s but I want to try at least one grow with them in my grow room.
Expanding my horizons.
I just harvested 6 photos and have an outside tree that should be ready in a couple weeks , so I have a great supply for the winter.
