My 1st Grow , unknown strain, on a budget, it can be done!

Sorry, but I don’t buy autos either. There are plenty of members whom do though. I only prefer larger feminised because I’m a terrible rusher and I prefer quantity over quickness. From what I’ve seen on forum the ILGM autos produce good yields for smaller stature. I might try one day, but I’m an old school fool and prone to mistakes which you can’t really make on autos. Any variation decreases yield.

Still somewhat of an amateur strain finder. I just buy what I like and company keeps getting primo strains; like Bruce Banner. When released price was ridiculous. The God Bud is very expensive but eventually I know they will get it once they find a stable dependable strain of it. They do their research and the growing info on strains are spot on.

Thats ok i was just enquiring anyhow :slight_smile: i will experiment with, clones and topping and scrogging eventually :slight_smile:

I am saddened :frowning: ILGM doesnt ship to the UK!!
Any other trusted sites?

Can’t you just go to Amsterdam and get whatever you like? I don’t think Brexit has started border inspections yet. Go get some primo seeds and then clone it to keep going. Cloning is dead easy and very successful. Every clone I have ever taken has grown.

I wish i could :frowning: dont mention brexit, its all gone to the dogs and im not proud to be british at this point in time…but hayho, my one individual vote wont change the shit storm thats coming!

It has only been 2 days but i got a meter for temp/humidity…set it up, they seem happy enough…is this the right place for it? Or should it be by the canopy?

If you’re seeing mostly clear trichs, then she won’t be ready in a week, she’s got longer than that.

It’s very very difficult to hold that damn thing steady, I know. Does your scope clip into your phone?

Once u start growing good plants u won’t need seeds. Learn to clone

I have been reading about milky and amber tricomes,im not there yet but then i cant really see them that well. I was looking at those clip on ones but thought they wouldnt work that great? Should i invest then?

I have been learning, learning sooo much sometimes i get info overload…iv been looking at topping, scrogging, monster cropping, cloning etc etc, this is my very first grow so im just cruising through this one 1st and wanted a trusted place to get seeds so that i can start the cloning process :+1:

This is the one I use and I love it. I know it’s hard to believe such a cheap thing will work, but I have more expensive ones that don’t work as well. This one is $7.
