Newbie looking for good growing guides (nom.mom)

Hey guys, I'm starting the research phase before I have seeds, but could use some direction on where to find good advice.

I've done hydro and aeroponic vegetables, (and have had terrible luck with veggies in soil) so I thought I'd try something like a DWC with just 1 plant in a 5-gal bucket, since I have all the equipment for that.

I have seen there are plenty of different places to get info, but as a novice, I won't really recognize bad advice when I see it. 😅

Thanks in advance!

Grow Weed Easy is the gold standard.

I also listen to Shaping Fire, which talks a lot about regenerative agriculture techniques and how they relate to growing fine organic cannabis, but if you're growing hydro it won't be relevant. I won't try to convince you that organic soil is the best way. Do what works for you.

Thank you - it's kind of amazing how far down the results list that page was, with how much info they have and how long they've been online. That seems like a huge resource! Thanks

As far as soil v hydro goes, I have had terrible terrible luck with just about every soil-based plant I've ever grown - but these neglected tabasco peppers in old jars of nutrient water are going on year 2.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
