Dadgum!!! Where were you when I was trying to figure all this out 12 years ago!!! Great introduction video!! All Newbies pay attention! This took 2 years of trial and error to figure out. Great presentation! 🌱🌱🌱🇺🇸💪
Its so refreshing to hear someone speak with correct English. No Ums or ahhs and no you knows. just clear understandable English. I love the content but am thrilled to listen to clear communication which is extremely rare in this day. stay lifted
Hi Keith, I am also located in Canada and I am starting growing. Just subscribed to your channel. If it would be possible to msg me privately, so that I can msg you for tips and tricks for fellow canadian that is starting out !!! Thanks fellow neighbor !!! - dan
I grow outdoor in Colorado and it gets cold at night sometimes to 35-40 degrees but the strains do well as long as it doesn't rain or snow and get into the roots. And since we're high up in the mountains with no humidity I don't have to worry about mold thank God. Great video girl and good information.
@@JB-sv5pr ya the only bugs I have gotten in my two seasons of growing now are spiders which are good, grasshoppers which are bad, but they don't do as much harm as people have said or least haven't yet, and aphids.
@@JB-sv5pr I hear neem oil works really well. My cousin loves in Oregon and gets a lot of bugs and that's what he uses. Plus ladybugs, and spiders especially the big weaver orb spiders that come out in the day help a lot, also known as the banana spider.
Very informative video. A few suggestions for those without a lot of room or money. I have a 2x4x5 grow tent. My only mistake was It should have been taller to allow more vertical growth. The 2x4 footprint allows for 8 three gallon pots to fit inside. True that's not roomy enough for large varieties but many varieties can be grown and kept short and still provide a lot of material. If you trim in a field of green type pruning you can end up with a solid 2x4 by several feet tall block of leaves. I consider the 6" blower and carbon filter a real necessity for indoor growing. As someone who has a lot of experience with different types of lighting(decades of lighting marine aquariums) I believe, in small grow tents, led full spectrum lights give the best value for the cost. I have two 600watt leds in my grow tent and I have to cut the intensity down some to avoid leaf burn. Heating and cooling aren't needed in the grow tent as in my home the temp. is normally set for 72 in the winter and 74 in the summer. With the air exchange from the blower the plants are jostled constantly and there has never been a mold issue. I do suggest one thing that works well for me. Each grow cycle I hang a fly strip in the middle of the grow tent. I've never had a white fly issue since I started doing that but at the end of each cycle there's always hundreds of flies, gnats stuck to the strip. Buy the best soil mix you can find, extra perlite, extra nutrients. I use fox farms and it has worked well consistently for me. Change your light hours from 18 to 12 when your plants have reached half as tall as you have room for them to grow because they will continue to grow with the buds forming and at that stage you don't want to do any more plant topping. Hint, if you're growing for cbd read up on telling when the thc is converted into cbd and how to tell when it's the right time to harvest.
"Hi Ariana, what a lovely name for a lovely lady. I was baptised Eugene. I am from Western Cape - South Africa. 2 years ago i was diagnosed with MS. And as you know, there is no cure yet. No medication. I have tried all avenues, but, nobody can help me with medication. I spoke to my Professor at the Neurology Dept. and he told me that the nearest you can get to a cure is Cannabis. I like your intro, it was well researched and presented. I will follow your every instructions, i will try anything as long as it helps me. Thank you once again"
Dr Coimbra in Brazil gets very good results for his ms patients with extremely high dose vitamin d. Look into the Coimbra protocol. Or read Jeff Bowles book 'Miraculous Results of Extremely High Dose Vitamin D.'
also, I would recommend a first time grower to get some yellow sticky traps/cards, a jewlers loupe, and maybe some mosquito dunks for the water reservoir if growing in a garage or shed. My new favorite garden tool is the scissor file Fiskars sells for sharpening your pruners, easily added many years of use to my tired old shears!
10 years plus under my belt. Nice non bias intro to growing vid. 👍👍 Key point she made newbz, always feed on the light feed end of the grow recommendations given by the nutrient manufacturers! Remember some of them just want more of your money. But more importantly, the plants just dont really need as much as what they recommend. Unless you are a perfect grower in nothing less than perfect growing conditions. In ny experience? Neither of those 2 has ever been "perfect". But we all strive to create the best product in the end. Best wishes. 💪✌️🤙 5 minutes later... 🌲🤦♂️
I wish I could've watched this before I started growing in the spring. So much wasted time through trial and error. My plants are doing well and grow outdoors but thinking seriously about indoors. Thanks for all the really useful information.
This was my first time here and I loved everything about this presentation. I have grown before but never gotten the quality I’m lookin for hope she helps...
I think I just fell in love!!!😍 she’s so smart and beautiful! Thanks for the amazing video! It’s great to have someone so knowledgeable and caring to help us all out when we need a hand! This channel is the truth!!!! Love love loveeeeee ittttt! Big ups from the Midwest! Love and peace, at the very least! -Andy
I got suggested this video, while searching for how to grow my own veggies for my food channel. lmao. But it's all good. Anybody want birria tacos? hahahaha
This was a dope video for beginners. You may already have one but i thought I'd ask. Do you have a video where you show exactly what you're doing through the process so we can have a visual on what to look for, things you've picked up on the way in your process of growing. and again, Thank you for the informational video.
Woohoo! Second legal season, lucky me, ive got a greenhouse! Last harvest was 4 plants, 8lbs! Not a joke. I gave 3lbs away so far, no way i could smoke that much, my people are happy. Thank you!
It's a lot fun. Just remember this. Less is more. Everyone tries to pump their plants with everything possible to the max, and none of that matters at all. It's all about genetics, your soil, and lighting. I'm on my 2nd grow and I only use soil from the backyard, and water from the hose. I never use nutrients, I never check the ph, but I but top quality clones from the dip for $25 each and my flowers come out rock hard dense, covered in trichomes, I trim them as if they're going to a dip for top shelf, and cure for at least 1-2 months and everyone who has smoked my flowers says it's better then anything they've bought in Denver at the dips and it's 100% organic just soil and water so you know your not smoking chemicals or anything else like this.
@@jasongunningham9545 you'll be able to tell a difference for sure if you smoke it. My cousin grows organically, makes his own soil and his bud is really good, so last year I did my first grow and it's way better then the Chem flooded bud at the dips. I just use the Colorado soil in our backyard and my plants flourish. Plus I get really good genetics from klonecolorado.com, and freeworldgenetics.com. Idk where your located but if you're in Colorado I highly recommend them. About to harvest my Orange Creamsicle this weekend, 2 Scoops will be done next weekend, then Holy Modo has 1.5 weeks left and Tropicalia OG's have 3-4. They were really late bloomers and I should have tricked them into flower but now I have to build a mock green house for 4 weeks to keep them alive from the snow. Last year I had 12 plants, harvested 5 and the rest all died from a snow storm. I used the buds on the dead plants for bubble hash and it still came out great. Actually still have about a lb in the freezer to run this fall.
If you're a first-time grower and see all this stuff you "need" don't worry, you just need a light bulb and an auto switch to set the 18/6 lighting schedule. Then just add an outtake fan. It will also work as a passive inflow pushing old air out, bringing new air in. Then you just add more lights. 6x 13w ordinary LED bulbs. And some veg nutrients. That's all you need. 50bucks tops.
rigjt there is a grip of things you could have , but you dont have to have all that equiptment to get started, this video went from a Grow tutorial to an infomercial, for the( gro biz) ! good info for beginners I supposed the shopping list will run a guy around $1,000 $1,500 after soil seeds and and some cal mag and your at $2,000 or $50 and some bag seeds and your in there like swim where !
In Virginia the dispensary situation is abysmal BUT you can grow up to 4 plants for personal use. With the dispos as they are, growing is the only way to go.
That is true, some pesticides can cause bad effects and it stains the image of the cannabis industry. This course is really helpful for people who would like to grow their own cannabis indoors. Growing cannabis is surely a delicate process.
Excellent training for folks considering this adventure. Question: Do LED lights work as well as the ones recommended? I believe the LED style would be much cheaper on the electric bill. Anyone?
I figured it would be good to mention for the people who's tap water has chloramines instead of chlorine you can go to pet stores in the fish section there should be water purifiers or you can go on line. There are filters that connect to garden hoses I think they're called Boogie Blue . Happy growing 😀👍✌ PS Great content!!!
That looks great I'm taking classes for horticulture and budtending..so I'm studying all kinds of videos for information insights and they best ways to go about it.
Hi ARIANA. I am from Mississippi. Medical Marijuana is legal this year. I plan to build a greenhouse. I may start with a 10ft x 20ft. greenhouse. I would like to know how many plants i can put in this greenhouse. I have listened to your video several times and taken notes. I hope to start with the larger planting pots. Enjoyed your video. Your help will be appreciated.
Outdoor grower rookie. I am lucking out of making first plant all the way to now of FINAL WEEK FLUSHING. The bad is my plant only have 6 Colas with 12 extended branches but it filled out, the other bad is it grew only 24 inches tall, wasnt using any feed during Veg Stage and made the MicroGrow Mistake as I sprinkled on plant of 8th week Veg Stage, the next few days plant started to flower too soon but F it, I take my mistakes on the fly having no choice, its why Im here now,lol..
What a great introduction for beginners. So far advanced of my first grow over 20 years ago. Slim pickings for internet info back then, only a couple books I could find at BandN. I started with 5 2-bulb 4' florescent shop lights and some seeds I found in a bag of top notch schwag. Lol I'm considerably more sophisticated now! Keep up the good work for the noobs!
Hid lamps have and always will grow great buds , every bit as good as any led , how ever hid lights burn too hot and use twice as much electricity so if money is not a concern and you have a 8" fan go with ceramic metal halide double ended 1000 ! I recently switched to led after running the CMH 1000 double and my room was always at 30c or more , I run a mars fc6500 in a 4.5x 4.5 tent , runs at 23c degrees with a small 6" fan TURNED DOWN and pulls 650 watts and my plants look unbelievable under this bright white light , you can see every little detail !
The remote ballast is a big factor in heat reduction. We just passed legal weed in my state and I would like to grow again. I did it back in the late 70s but didnt want to go to jail. It was fun. The only book I can say Ive read cover to cover many times over was the complete guide to growing by ed rosenthal I think. TBH thats one of not many that I can say I actually read completely and I did read it many times. There must be lots of new literature out there? I'm an electrician wt control training for 30+ yrs. This could be great fun.
Juicing the leaves is an awesome reason to grow your own. The green juice is a powerful anti inflammatory that can relieve pain without any psychoactive effect.
Is there going to be a follow-up to this video? 7 months after the "intro" video, there's no new Cannagirl updates? I thought she was going to take us thru harvest...?
a great piece of equipment for newbies is a thermostat fan speed controller. That means you can keep the temperature inside the tent perfect even with changing seasons.
I wish someone would do an in depth video on safe electric usage.Amps, watts, breakers, and probably the most hazardous of all using extension cords improperly or incorrectly.Even some of the most experienced indoor growers have horror stories of overloading breakers and extension cords.from loosing your crops to burning down your house and death.
Im all set inside a big stack of hay and man- fire extinguisher. Just don’t get a rats nest going or cheap lights. And keep an eye on everything. Buy a good grounded power strip and never daisy chain lights
hi Ariana , i'm a newbie grower and like your video content , i cant seem to find that list and other sheet info you mention you gave out , i'd appreciated if you can point me in the right direction to get started and doing this right the first time around .... great content , hope to hear from you soon ! ty vm for sharing your content and knowledge !
yeah...I don't know if I'd send a noob grower to pick up a 1000W HPS. Now days you can pick up a decent full spectrum LED for under $300 that will get you through a grow and not need new bulbs every 6 months
I just germinated my first 2 seeds my current set up is i have a cheap 20 dollar fan a 30 dollar heater a 20 dollar led desk light if they do germinate and grow to the flowering stage ill put them outside
How are you doing really informative video I like your style I was wondering where could I get a copy of the document you were speaking of about the humidity if you need a humidifier temperature that you were speaking about in the video I would love to know how to access that thanks
I definitely don’t believe in accidents or coincidences everything happens for a reason there was a reason why I came across this video. Wow and thank you. 😊
Really good video Thx for making this for people and putting it out there. I needed this a year or so ago and would have helped me a lot. I actually got a 600 watt HPS thinking I was dialing down a 1,000 to 600. So this would have told me the balace comes in 600 or 1000 and I would have got the 1000
"thank you for purchasing this course on how to grow your own cannabis" I am guessing that did not turn out too well considering all the extremely high-quality content on this subject that is available on youtube for free. but thanks for sharing.
Hello, I bought a rapitest digital moisture meter; but on the long list of plants with the right moisture number for each plant that it came with NO cannabis plant was in the list. So I email the company and they email me back saying they do not know the right soil moisture level for cannabis. Totally blew me away! Could you please tell me the ideal soil moisture number for cannabis? Also could you recommend a good soil moisture meter that is digital that is between 50-150$. Thank you so much and have a great day!
Hey just wondering if you could give me any advice on heating up my 2.5x2.5x6.6 grow tent during the winter in the uk? My bedroom temps vary from 15c (59f) - 22c (71f) I exhaust air out of the house through a 4’’ RVK fan with a CF attached and suck air in from my lung room through vent holes. In my lung room I keep the window slightly open for fresh air which lowers temps.. and have radiators which I don’t want on all the time.. the humidity varies from 44%-66%, I’ve just ordered a humidifier and dehumidifier to create more stability. In the tent I have HLG 260w qb v2 lights, and 3 oscillating fans.. Ideally I would just stick a small oil filled radiator inside my tent but worried about it taking up too much room as I want to fill up my scrog net completely. Maybe the radiator could sit underneath the canopy? I’m wondering if this wouldn’t burn or dry the leaves? I’ve heard ceramic fan heaters are popular too but again space and burnt/dry leaves are a concern.. tubular heaters apparently can burn holes in the tent and don’t produce much heat... As I sleep in the lung room keeping it 24 degrees all the time is too hot for me.... Any advice from the pro’s on here would be highly appreciated. Love from London!!
Could anyone assist a first time grower on this question. Do I really need to buy a 600 dollar Gorilla grow tent? Are there no cheaper grow tents that will do a similar job? Thank you for any advice. The next Norwegian Grow King!
It may be a fire hazard but I have 150 bales Of organic hay and made a 14x24 food grow that is entirely light proof and smell proof and looks like a stack of hay.
No. Unless you are going to take it apart or move it regularly. I've used a $100 tent for four years now, no problem. You don't need half this crap she's selling.
If you are first timer then grow a few plants in a bedroom cupboard. Over the years I've used florescent and metal halide lights with good results. I place a a small desk fan at the cupboard entrance. Total cost $250 (bulb, reflector ballast and timer).You don't need to go out and spend a lot of money on equipment but remember the three golden rules: No Tell, No Sell, No Smell.
Hey great video but I don't know why manufacturers use that reflective tin foily thing on the walls of the grow tent seeing as plain white paint reflects more light. I mean that's like the first thing they teach you in arts school.
