Hi all,

After a break from growing for 16 years I have finally found myself in a position to start again this year, also not to have to deal with the unscrupulous dealers and the rubbish they pass off as 'good stuff'. The idea was originally to grow in the great outdoors but the weather in the UK has been so grim that even with a greenhouse to use, I have now decided to start an indoor grow. Being an indoor novice, I took a look at several of the many forums for ideas and researching the latest techniques available. Well, one thing led to another and the information, grow journals and general enthusiasm I found on this site convinced me that this was the place to be, so here I am!

This is what I am planning, 2'x3'x2' propagation tent with 4 2' T5 tubes, 3'x3'x6' grow tent with a X2 189 LED unit and a 4" fan and carbon filter. I'm going to do soil grows first (seems to be the general advice given here) starting the seeds of in jiffy pots and then using Canna Terra products in 10l airpots. Variety used for the first grow has to be Sweet Seeds Speed Devil#2 as I bought those thinking that I was going to be growing outside or in the greenhouse, obviously my appetite has been whetted by all the great strains that I've seen been grown in the journals but they can come later!

Hopefully I've covered the basics correctly and any help/suggestions will be welcome.

Peace and love to you all!

Yes, this is the place! Welcome. Looks like a nice setup you've got going. Do you have a pH meter? If not, I'd recommend getting one. pH issues are the most common problem we see and should you run into any we'll need to know in order to help you out.
 
Hey there and welcome to the AFN. Sounds like you've done some research for yourself and that is what I like to called Grand. :lol:

Glad to have you and good luck getting started and do not be afraid to ask for help. Muddy, Jackal and Joe Dirt are New Grower helpers. Be on the lookout for those three although I am game to help them out with the new guys where I can. Take care.

Edit: Man! That's twice now that Muddy and I were welcoming simultaneously. lol
 
Welcome to AFN! This really is a great place for a new grower...especially for autos! Good luck and happy growing! :peace:
:smokebuds:

TOKE OUT
 
hi mikey, welcome! like everyones said, it's a great place here, full of useful info.

Good luck with your grow!
:peace:
 
Thanks for the welcome guys, I've had to have a rethink already (Muddy, you're a star!) :bow:good job I hadn't just gone for it! Hopefully that's my first mistake avoided! I've posted the problem in the new growers forum.

Peace and love to you all.
 
That's what I do here, help the new growers get started off right. I replied to your post with some info.
