- Hello all! I am a newbie and live in the northern states. I just received my first feminzed, seeds (Purple ?, and Tangerine dream). Anyway, my plan is to only grow one of each in a small indoor tent with controlled lighting. So please, any tips on best organic potting soil for these girls? And is there such a thing as smaller grow tents for just a few plants? Finally, what grow lights would you recommend? Thank you all much for any advice! I have had a medical license for a few years and am excited to try this on my own and stop paying astronomical prices!!! I have a million houseplants, but realize that this is a finicky one?

The opposite really green lady Once you get dialled in, growing cannabis is easy! Fox farm is very popular i the Northern States i think. You should check those guys out for your soil
How much cannabis do you intend to grow? Its better if we figure out how much you need to grow to supply yourself wiht your on medicine. Then figure out how many plant you need to grow it, then how much space you need.
Let us know more and we will get you on the right track

@greenlady welcome to Percy's and super excited to see your first grow! I myself am a new indoor grower and Percy's got me on the right track. @twisted1 is an organic soil grower and @templegrower and these guys have some TIME under their belt with dirt lol. Your in the right place to learn for sure and as Macky said let us know more about your grow.
How many seeds? How much cannabis do you need to grow? What space do you have that you can work with? Where your grow is going to be placed in your house is ideal for stealth and ease of access when your going to play in the garden lol. All of these things if planned nicely make the experience that much better but these plants are basically the hardest thing to kill lol they can take a lot. Looking forward to seeing your grow!🙂
Do better, feel better.
Good to meet you! I purchased 6 seeds, but read that 1 plant can produce quite a lot of bud, so as it is only for myself and my husband, I was thinking two plants were plenty. I also have two different strains, one is more potent so I definitely want to grow one of each. I was going to pitch my ⛺ in a small spare room (I believe), and my husband and I will tend to them. My husband has a "bit" of experience, but not with indoor and not first hand. The strains I bought are from Growers Choice and both are supposed to be easy growers, medium sized and to do well indoors.

Hi @greenlady, welcome to Percy’s. Northern states I’m guessing that’s the US... If so I’d recommended you look for M3 Mix (Michigan Made Mix) or Coast of Maine soils. Both are organic Supersoil that only need water to produce great results and are formulated for cannabis. Sohum is also popular around Percy’s and is also full organic water only soil, and Fox Farms Oceans Forest is also a popular choice in the states as Macky mentioned.

@greenlady Welcome to percys, your going to love growing, it makes every day feel like christmas morning, getting up to see how much your plants have grown :d
In the corridors of power where the talks are in full swing
If you can't say it with flowers Then don't say anything
@greenlady welcome to Percy's !
Macky is right, so much depends on how much weed you need !
You'll need a tent, a light, extraction and filter etc, but the size of all these will be largely dependent on the number of plants you require to fulfil requirements.
Whatever your needs, these guys will see you good 👍
Time to grow old disgracefully.
@monkeydo, yes, upstate N.Y. And thanks so much! I will check those out! We are close to Maine, so I will look into that one!

@greenlady Welcome to Percys.For soil im a Fan of Fox Farms Ocean forest either by itself or mixed 50/50 with Fox Farms Happy Frog and the Fox Farms Trio nutrients at half the recommended strength.
Temple Grower has a Super soil recipe that works great if you would like to mix your own soil https://percysgrowroom.com/forum/organics/organic-super-soil-recipe/#post-13040
or you can go with the pre made soil like Monkey has mentioned.
Good Luck with your grow where all here if you have any questions or need some help.
Sativa to change the things I can, Indica to accept the things I can’t.
