I'm a new UK grower who's only experience is watching my dad attempt to grow one big Buddha cheese plant on a windowsill using baby bio for nutes aha :') He got 2 ounces somehow...

Me and my dad have spent the last few years as regular visitors to a bunch of forums, trying to learn what we can about hydroponics and growing in general. We are both much more educated than we were for sure!

My dad has emphysema and is a recent vaping convert (we have Hebe titans and a volcano) so we're interested in tinctures and edibles too.

Until recently growing was a pipe dream for us due to the draconian way sick people are treated by the present UK government but we now have most of our gear in transit so we'll be starting soon.

Our grow space is a small 80cm x 80cm x 180cm tent that will go into a utilities cupboard. We hope to grow 4 plants at a time in this space but I have a feeling we might lose one or two the first time round.

In the coming weeks I hope to be starting a diary detailing our attempts.
We've decided autos are our best bet for a few grows then we might try a photo grow in the future.

Our setup will be a straight dwc on the first grow to get to grips with feeding, then we might add a scrog on a second or third grow depending on how confident we feel.

We plan to grow 2 strains: think different and berry bomb auto.
There may be an outdoor guerrilla type grow in the works too :)

Thanks for taking the time to read this, I hope to be an active member for years to come!
 
Welcome Aristophanes,

I think if you prepare well that you can't go wrong,
I don't know about Cherry Bomb but TD is a great strain.

Good luck to you and your dad!

Ps have he tried taking RSO?
 
Welcome to AFN, aristophanes :) What a gift to share the experience with your dad! My dear departed dad... would have shot me... lololol
Very glad that you chose to join us here :) There is a mountain's worth of knowledge around here, and we all love to share.. and look at bud porn...
I hope you'll start a journal. I'll keep an eye out for it :)
Tokes to you and your Dad :Sharing One:
 
Ps have he tried taking RSO?

No unfortunately, we don't have the money to buy more than a few grams of bud at a time so we thought it would be impractical to make with such small amounts of material. We'll be trying it soon if the great and glorious bud god is smiling on us.

Thanks waximus :)

I should add that we are recreational users as well as medical aha :')
 
Aloha Aristo,
Welcome I too am a newbie here and a rookie grower as well. I look forward to your first grow. Perhaps we can support each other as we both learn the fine art of cannabis husbandry. Best of luck to you, I will be watching for your first grow.
 
Welcome to AFN! Sounds like a fun adventure for you and your dad! We have a great data base for indoor growing and weather you plan on soil or hydro, we have that too! Best of luck with your future grow. We have a great thread on tinctures and edibles. There are some great recipes to try! Best of luck!:goodluck:
