New Grower Any autoflower niches?

[Voltaire]

I mean like setup, I see some growers here set up grow journals and they get free stuff...

Do you think there is any way I could do an unbiased grow journal and get free supplies from businesses, breeders or light companies?

Right now I'm doing an Auto Seeds Polar Express grow... with only a 150 HPS, would breeders be interested in a proficient grower using only a 150 HPS and making a grow journal to appeal to people with smaller sized grows, you think?

Welcome to AFN
i fear it may be a tad more complex than that.
growers post independent grows and promote certain breeders or per personal preference,LED brands.
Possibly they are asked to grow tests after posting successful grows of a specific breeder?
Im not sure of any "sponsorships" straight outa the gate

hey Voltaire welcome to AFN you might want to go to the introduction threat and say hello to the folks so you can be greeted properly. as far as asking for freebies on you first post seems kinda weird sense no one knows you yet. after you spend some time on the site youll learn the answers to your questions.

Welcome to THE AutoFlower Network. The home of everything auto and all vibes good.

It's best to start a grow and establish yourself before looking for someone to provide you with resources. Typically nutrient and light vendors do not like to be directly linked to cannabis growing because of the taboo. My recommendation to you is to post up a grow journal of your current grow and worry about honing your own skills and maximizing the effectiveness of what equipment you currently have instead of looking for endorsements.

Once you start your grow journal, I invite you to start a thread here on this forum so we can follow along on your grow and offer advice as needed. It's good to have so many extra sets of eyes on your grow, especially as a new grower because folks can see what's going on as it happens.
In the mean time, if you want head over to the Introductions forum and start up a thread introducing yourself, it's a good place to note your experience and knowledge and let everyone know you're here for the long haul!

You would have to personally contact all thoose mentioned and ask for their support in the matter
This web site does not provide any of the above mentioned things
if you have seen any talk of seed sharing it was a missunderstanding because the site had nothing to do with what you mentioned it was people discussing what they do
and if they are discussing seed sharing that is in violation of the site rules and should be brought to the attention of a mod or admin

A few places will run a 50% off if you document your whole grow using their light.
Usually they are after the most experienced grower so that everyone gets to see some great results.
Average Joe may not get anything close to the experienced growers.

On the other hand you state that you are a proficient grower, any company you approach will ask to see what you have done.
Not sure if you are a long standing member on another grow site?
Either way you will have to have lots of massively successful grows under your belt that you can show.
Sometimes it is easier just to shell out the dough and just get growing!

By all means hang out, start a journal and ask lots of questions!
Lots of great help here!
