This series of short videos will document my daily learning experiences with my personal cannabis grow, starting from seed. I demonstrate and discuss methods used throughout the grow process in an attempt to build healthy rapid root growth, and in the end a strong vigorous plant that produces that sticky aromatic flower we all enjoy . I am by no means an expert on cannabis, this is only my second personal grow, but I do find it to be a fascinating process. During this grow, I hope you learn something, whether it be through my successes or failures.
