Growing da ganja

Hi,
I've been researching how to grow weed for months and I am at the point where I just want to LOL.
anyway what I plan to do is grow about 5-6 lowryder #2's in my greenhouse when it's hotter, like start growing in june?

then after that i want a supply all year round, i am thinking of growing 4 plants in my built in wardrobe, or i'll just grow them in a corner of my room.. idc really .

anyway can i grow 3-4 lowryders under a light system like this?
it looks really easy.

also does anyone know how much light lowryders need to flower? 12 hours? ive been looking on google etc, can't find out anywhere.

my mum says i can only grow no more than five at a time, best parent ever :lol:.

i chose lowryders because they're small and take little time to grow (less electricity costs).

anyway yea if anyone has links to sites that have tips on growing LRs that'd be great because all the tutorials i can find are for regular plants.

thank youuu

Didn't look in the right place

 

OP,,, less electricity less light means smaller plants, smaller yeild. that little 200w thing will grow shit as a novelty but thats about it... one light?huh are you kidding me. if you managed to grow 5 luscious marijuana plants under that ONE light you would become a growing god. people would worship you cause it cant be done. Sure you can grow a nice single plant imo, with one little light but nothing really worth the time it took to tend to. Ive grown shit under 1000w MH. and still come out with a rather disappointing amount of good good weed. For one if your running a 1000w its really not alot of power. I wouldnt push 4000 on a 200amp service since the rest of your home electicity hasnt been put into the draw. but not getting off the subject. Had I put up another 1000mh I would have noticed a lot and I mean alot more buds at the end of the same shit. With very little difference in electric current use. only to feel bad over a extra 40 dollars charge for electric, yet thru out a couple 100$ in ungrown bud for not using that extra bulb.

 

hmmm permission and a greenhouse.
very promissing. you want to harvest continually you say?
this what you do. you got 5 plants to work with. so go ahead and sprout your seeds today. grow em up in that greenhouse of yours. to flower a plant it needs a 12 hour dark period every day, uniterupted. so when they are big enough, 2 or so feet high. move them inside to flower. once they begin go ahead and kill the male plants. you should be about 2 or so months into it by now. now out of your remaining females, pick out the best looking one and call it your mother. bring her back out into the greenhouse, and let the others bud under your lights. take about 4 or 5 cuttings off the mother, and learn to root them. once you root and plant them, pick the strongest two and let them get to be about 2 feet high and bushy. now send them into your flower chamber, should only take a month or so to bud em. in that time you take 4 or 5 more cuttings from the mother and repeat the process. this way you always got 2 bushes growin, 2 flowerin, and the mother. if you get good at it 2 flowering shrubberies should get you and your ma a nice stash. shouldnt be too hard to rig up a nice 400 watt hps and a 240 mh light in a closet to flower them, some outdoor security lights and a few random wiring tools.

 

^ 600w for a flip flop garden, not bad still remember its time consuming, if good weed is what you want, time you need to invest, still youll be able to work out all the bugs over time. and it should just rotate like rastapasta says, but if your intending to have a life outside of pot remember once you stop paying attention to your plants they stop paying attention to you. and anything else that can through a indoor garden for a loop like a POWER faliure for a week in your area in the middle of winter. I doubt you have a generator, and thats getting way advanced for you as such a novice grower,
good luck with the mini. and I hope you at least achieve a decent smoke for any of your efforts. Please share your results.

 

jeeze, this is so complecated lol.
thanks for the replys..
i was under the impression you can't take clones from lowryders?
so what i think would be better is to get that 200w light, start my seedings off under it and then grow them in ma greenhouse.. then in the winter i can grow 3 or 4 lowryders under it, if i need more light i can just buy another 200, right?
pot is pretty hard to grow, for a weed..

 

you would be fine with the 200w lite, if you just want to grow and try skills, imo youll grow about a oz of weed per 200w thats just taking a guess, buds need light, bigger buds need more light....

 

yea, don't get me wrong im not expecting a few ounces of high grade lol..
if i get an ounce of lr2# from £100 spent on seeds lighting and soil that's fine with me! eventually i'll work out the lighting times and shit, and grow some decent bud but this is my first time.

anyway, we'll see.. hopefully i'll have some pics for ya in a few months..
