With money I’d guess anyone could grow some pretty good weed. What are your tips to a great grow on a minimal budget?

Hello, I’d like to do outside being I’m in Ohio and the season is around the corner. I am looking into making a greenhouse of sorts to comply with our crooked government. Currently I’m growing 3 that went in dirt on Dec25th and 2 that are about 3 weeks old.
I’m getting red stems and finding someplace with cal-mag near me is impossible. I am using RO water and didn’t know about maybe needing cal-mag. Anyways, I watered them and fed them 3 days ago and they are looking better. I’ll post some pics in a bit here.

I agree outside is the cheapest option. Grow lights can be expensive. If you grow autos you can get more grows in a season. Good luck with you decision.

Plant #3
This one was topped, this plant lost it’s entire root when it was a very small seedling and was brought back to life.
All of these were watered 3 days ago and the nutes in the soil activated making new growth greener. This plant also got blood meal. Any suggestions I’m all ears. Thanks

What would you recommend. I only have solid food for my plants which requires water. The plants need nutes but don’t feel light enough to water but need food? Totally a new grower. I posted some pics in this post. The plants start to look bad and then I water them which gives them the nutes and they are happy again.

Good quality lights can be expensive. I went the route of building my own light using HLG QB’s. It was much cheaper going that route and the lights are high quality. There are natural ammendments you can easily obtain to make your own topdressings that are cheaper than bottled nutes. Make your own compost and bakashi. You can also make your own cal mag with egg shells, vinegar and epsom salts. @Budbrother thread is a great source of information.
Garage sale for items such as fans and humidifier and dehumidifier. I scored a great humidifier for $6 at a garage sale. I found a nice chapin pump sprayer for $5 at a garage sale.

What is the definition of expensive?
When you have been a dedicated smoker, covert state and paid for what smoked your whole life, what is expensive?
Paid 200 to 300 for zip every 3 wks.
Our great light, imo, HLG, was 320.oo, that and seed purchase is all that it took for us to be own our own smoke and 5 healthy grows in a row.
We saving money nowdays. 1st grow paid for everything over and over.
We dont have tent or the extra equipment most have. We get by with the minimum.
Yes, poor peeps can grow, we cut ties with the dealer, went 60 days cold turkey and dont look back.
I have smoked almost everyday since 94, a few months cold turkey did nothing but make our firdt grow the best ever smoked and we arent stopping. Yeah, poor peeps can to. If they really want to.

Can you give plants human supplements? I was wondering if you could but haven’t seen anyone mention it. What was your feeding cycle like?
