Just finished first grow

[Catzo]

Hello from canada.

I just finished my first and also legal grow. Had alot of fun and looking to learn more. I made alot of mistakes my first grow mostly relating to timing and trimming, not knowing exactly how weed plants grow and when was my biggest handicapp. Now that i know my next grow will be muchhh better.

Still ended up with about 20oz from 2 plants, white widow and afghan kush.

Can you tell us more about it. Soil coco or hydro , Lights , strain?

Thanks!
This was a soil grow. Used regular promix soil combined with maybeeee about 10% earthworm casing, 2% bat guano and 30% perlite. I was hoping to go organic the whole way but nutrient deficiency early on, probably because i waited too long to repot at one stage prompted me to start using liquid ferts. I am pleased with the results. An organic grow is hard.

Lighting was a series of 40w and 23w CFLs for the first 2 months then 600w MH on a dimmrr, starting at 250 for 3 weeks, then 400, and 600w amping up to HPS during fflowering.

I vegged these guys way too long and they were stunted in small pots due to issues with landlords and trying to keep the grow somwhat discrete. Even though its legal here I rent and landlords arent too keen on the whole thing.
As a plus my rent is all inclusive and my landlord ate the entire cost of that 600w bulb going 18hr a day.

Nice, impart some knowledge into me emilya. My mind is a sponge. No pressure but if u mess up i will punch a small rabbit.

Okay , when do you start that journal ? I’m in hydro learning soil, I’ll pull a chair up and see what else you can expel from some of that sponge. I make it to a big majority of soil growers and the different ways you’ll see them do .

Im down to impart whatever i can. I learned alot from this one grow. But, its still my only 1 grow so im not claiming to be an expert.

This grow started end of sept/start of oct right b4 it was legal here

We have experts here and we all like to share our grows with each other . And yes I’ve picked 3 in here that are in soil and they pick it apart till it’s figured out. And yes I’m no expert and have had 10 plus grows but only two in here . I came over and learned something every day for awhile . I love your grow and still want to see your work in here !!!!!
