Hey @Camaro1691, yeah making knives is somthing I really enjoy. Hope its ok but I attached a picture of my latest build. A slipjoint folder.
I just picked up my tent/light/filter and fan yesterday. I haven't even figured out what I'm doing for containers (5gal pails ?), what I want to grow in (probably soil) what nutrients I'm going to use etc etc... not to mention what strains I want to grow first.... its all fairly overwhelming.
Nothing like I did in my youth growing outdoors, straight in the ground, feeding 20-20-20 ending up with a 7 ft tall tree full of tiny popcorn buds that in hindsight after reading through alot of info here I harvested WAY too soon lol.
Very glad to have found a site full of experianced growers willing to share their tricks and knowledge.
Have a knife day

There definitely is lots of decisions to make as far as how your going to grow. This is my personal preference, I use undercurrent systems, although I’ll admit not for everyone they can be high maintenance at times.

I just bought my tent/light/filter and fan 2 days ago. Havent decided yet about containers, madium, feed or even strain. Just getting
started.
2x4x7 vivosun tent, 600w mars hydro light, 4" vivosun inline fan and carbon filter.
I know that the light is probably going to need to be upgraded or maybe add a other one but gonna try a run as is to see what it needs.
