just thought i'd say a quick hello and let you know my level of growing expertise lol!!
i first tried growing a cannabis plant about 10 years ago, after finding some seeds in a bag on a park in the town center. i gave the lot to a friend who i knew grew and he gave me back one of the beauties just as it was nearing maturity. long story short, someone ratted me out to the cops so it got took, theres nothing quite so bad as being interviewed by the police whilst sat next your own plant
soo, 10 years on and i bought a 400w hps out of sheer impulse! which sat in a cupboard unused for ages while i tried to beg borrow and steal a cutting/seeds of someone, until recently, when a friend asked if id like a cutting off his housmate. time went on and no cutting arrived so i just thought his mate was just some guy saying meaningless words, until one day i got a text saying " got you that thing, you need to pick it up asap" so there i was, no preparation, no nutes, no timer, nothing! basically all i had was a plant pot, a light, some soil, and some organic miracle grow.
which leads me where i am now. the plant is now in week two of flowering, fed every other watering with AN organic iguana juce bloom, which i may start adding some of the organic miracle grow dissolved in water to as it has a slightly higher p-k. i did give it a large dose of the miracle grow as i switched to 12/12 but it got burned pretty bad. im now at the stage where im giving it half strength iguana juice a week after flushing it with plain water, and slowly ramping back up the feed. so far so good and the plant looks healthy. my next learning curve will be to take some clones off this flowering plant (or go snivelling back to my friend with my tail between my legs, asking for some more cuttings!) so i can make better use of my space with a 2l hempy SOG grow.
Any friendly advice/mocking concerning my half-assed, impromptu grow would be much appreciated, I look forward to learning as much as possible about this wonderful plant from all on this forum.
cheers and bye for now.
