I am trying to find a Step by Step guide for growing indoors who’s book would I need to get to show me the process that walks you thru a grow? The grow Bible didn’t click with me and I feel so overwhelmed. I have the Cannabis Grower’s Handbook: The Complete Guide to Marijuana and Hemp Cultivation by (Ed Rosenthal) in my Amazon basket but is this what I need? Thank You

I have some of ED Rosenthals books,learnt a lot from them.
I have to admit after reading books, I thought I knew but I did not get “it”.
Learnt more here reading journals and would recommend reading how others do it here.
Hellraisers writings on here are among some of the best I have come across.
Other extremely knowledge growers here, too many to mention.
If you tag them for help they will be there for you, you can even ask someone to mentor you.
Just look for the outstanding examples of plants here and you will have found an excellent grower and tag them for help.
Growing indoors is totally different , with a whole set of parameters that have to be met before your plants will respond.
Light is number one, humidity ,temperature,media, pH, EC’s, water.
Hope that helps.

I have bought just about everything I need I think… I Have a dedicated room W/AC, Mars 4x4 & 5x5 tent, FC E6500, two 6" fans/filters use one for intake air saving carbon filter for replacement., 5ea. Fabric 5&7gal pots, Apera GroStar GS4 Tester, 10 2cf bags Happy Frog, 5 1.5cf bags ocean forest to mix in, 4 105cf bags course perlite, Remo’s 1L Supercharged Kit Nutrients, 5 different 5 packs of Autos from ILGM, 5 packs of 3 Photo’s from Barney’s farm, AND a Partridge in a Peartree…Lol Never had to worry about getting my smoke because the guy I was getting it from for the last twenty-three years grew it Very Discreetly and in all these years I never saw it. But his kids put him in a home in March this year because dementia caught up with him. I’m old myself and don’t know anybody and I’m pretty much a hermit also I was getting QP’s for four hundred ea. from him and from what I hear I can get a little over an OZ for that IF I found somebody and it would probably suck at best. I live in a dry state with no hope of change anytime soon and not close enough to drive to a free state… Sorry for the book but that’s where I’m at I need to do it myself. Tired of killing plants two at a time so I need something easy to follow.

Read alot of journals then start growing. Start your own journal and update it and ask when you have a problem as @Hashtonbutcher said read journals and do what and how you want. Growing conditions are different in some way for everyone.

By the look of the gear, you have all the right stuff.
One suggestion that I would make is don’t grow too many at once.
Just check out the seedling care category here and read up and you will be set to go,just tag someone for help here.
As @Dilligaf said, start a journal here so we can follow your progress and tag someone for help if you need it.

Just hang out here. The more you read the more you can learn. The search bar pulls up lots of info too. Start a grow thread so you can see progress and get help if needed. Start with a cannibus friendly soil.

Welcome to the neighborhood and one of the most enjoyable hobbies you will ever have. You will do well as it sounds like you have all the right tools. And like @Hashtonbutcher said, don’t over do on growing a lot of plants at first. Happy growing

It should be called a “basic guide”.
