First and foremost I hope everyone is doing well despite the year most of us have been having!
I'm new to growing, working on my first crop currently, and just thought i'd make an introduction.
I started over on GC forums and found this community - which seems more active - after doing some researching and coming across Emilya's watering guide (really well written btw). I failed at my actual first attempt with some purchased clones, though I still don't know exactly what I did wrong. Now I am giving it another go with some gifted clones that have a more established root system. They are currently in Promix HP and I have bought some botanicare nutes as I was lured in by the organic phrasing (even though its obviously not quite organic).
My goal is to eventually grow in a super soil I've made myself so that I can do the whole water only style and get the awesome flavors associated with soil grows.
I am reading as much as possible to learn all I can but i'm more of a hands on learning type. I want growing to be my new hobby, I really enjoy learning about it and really want to learn everything I can. I hope that maybe one day I can be knowledgeable enough to know exactly what nutrients at a glance I need to put into my plants to get them to do what I want. There's a vast array of knowledge on the internet and thats not counting all the grow bibles there are (books). It's easy to overthink!
I find myself different than a lot of my friends who smoke. I would classify myself as more of a connoisseur when it comes to cannabis. I like learning about each strain and trying each strain for the first time through clean glass to get unadulterated flavor and let the high tell me what I think about the strain. I love trying new strains. My friends on the other hand just care if its "Dank" which yeah we want potent medicine!
Either way, thats enough rambling. Thanks for having me!
