Hello

Hello from Sussex UK I am 47 year old female and like a spliff

. I found about this site from the Cannabis Grow Guide. I am finding skunk really hard to buy and when I do it is in miniscule amounts of sometimes crap and always underweight weed. Have decided to try and grow some after being ripped off and had enough of it. Am hoping to chat to some like minded nice people and find some advice on how to start growing so my friend and I can have a smoke of our own.Any tips will be greatly appreciated. God bless you all.

Thank you Kompressor. Will be ordering some seeds in the next few days hopefully.Do you guys plant them in soil to start off or do you put them on wet tissue paper?Or can you do both? Am really not sure how to start and dont want to waste seeds as they are not cheap. Will be over the moon if I can get some on the go.

alot of people germinate the seeds (start them) in a moist paper towell. once the seed opens up there should be a little root tip sticking out, then you can plant it in soil with the root down. im not very knowledgeable on growing but there alot of people around here with alot of experience, you are in good hands

Hello there, and welcome.

I would never recommend germinating in paper towels to a beginner. Way too easy to break off that little rootlet. I would just put them in your grow medium about 1/2" deep or whatever that equates to in metric.
