Some questions for purely educational purposes:

  1. What are some good sites to buy seeds from? Recommended strains?
  2. what are some good guides on the topic? Anything for absolute beginners?
  3. Whats the cost of equipment look like? What is the absolute bare minimum I would need to get started for indoors growing?

    Once you do this long enough, you can write a book or two about getting started… Here are my personal favorites:

    • Cannabis is a weed. It will grow everywhere, if you let it. (Most important part. New growers often overdo it, slowly killing their plant with love. Just let it do it’s thing and wait)
    • Make sure you understand the basics about substrate, light, heat and cycles of growth. Get a cheap LED growlight. Don’t bother with soil/coco, start with hydroponics (it’s very easy for beginners).
    • Don’t invest too much money in your first grow. It will come over time.

    And, of course, make sure you don’t do anything illegal…or do it, I’m not your father.
