Have a read of @CRiSPrGrow's diaries. You'd learn that not only is he a first time grower (multiple strains in one grow = multiple diaries) but he is also a total sponge for knowledge. His diaries are super detailed as well as entertaining.
Speaking from experience the learning curve is massive for a first time grower. Everyone's approach is different. When I started I didn't know a node from a pistil but I gained knowledge both through my own devices (hours of reading!) and from others here sharing theirs. It's why GD is such a great site. So many supportive new friends & cheerleaders :)
Besides, as cliche as it may sound, we're all winners here. We've all made the decision to grow our own weed for our own purposes, whatever they may be. Every one of us has harvested and now gets to enjoy the fruits of our labour. As awesome of a bonus it is to have competitions and prizes to win I'm pretty sure none of us started growing with the sole intention to win Newbie of the Month ;)
I'm keen to see your update on how your White Widow smokes @mrhat2001 & good luck with your BC Blueberry as well. Some of the best bud I've had was from BC :)
@Fibro_Witch aww thanks! it's the cherry on top of an overwhelmingly positive first grow experience here. Good luck for NOTM for November, not that you'll need it. Your grow & diaries are stellar stuff <3
@hufflepuff, I know! My "Fibrowarrior" diary isn't eligible for anything! I didn't realize that when I made it. *sigh* But I have my "High Amperage" diary in for 'Newbie of the Month' for November. Congratulations on being one of the October winners! Great job and enjoy your prizes!
Thanks @iMeus it was a huge learning curve for sure, but the hours of reading definitely paid off! Waiting until the weekend to see just how effective my medicine is :wink:
Super keen to follow along on your CBD Blueberry grow. I've read great things about the strain. Also, kudos on that purple urkle mainline, it's damn near perfect! :heart_eyes:
Thanks @bobo420 - the advice from the community here (including you!) got me to the finish line. BTW I'm loving that deep purple colour your dark devil is. Can't wait to see how she turns out :)
@hufflepuff, I felt the same way! Even if it was only like 20$ I didn't know if I wanted it. But afterwards I'm 100% happy I made the investment. Like you said, nothing like being up close looking at the trichs :sunglasses:
