hey guys, one of my plants isnt looking too good. its a plant from a grow that isnt where im staying so i cant get a pic right now. its drooping like crazy and im not sure what the problem is. i have my guy watering it but he says its not helping, all the other plants are fine but this one seriously looks like it hasnt been watered in forever. they do have a bunch of gnats that may be the problem. but like i said none of the others are suffereing. am i watering it too little or too much? ill try and get a pic up tomorrow. any ideas on what it could be?

damn guys i missed alot. my internet works fine but this site wouldnt work for awhile. some bad news. my hempstars got about 15% burned at the top. i came home to find the room literally like 120 degrees. my sister brought her boyfriends cat over and it fell asleep in front of the fan that takes air from the hall into my room. the fan was a bathroom fan and had been running for many months straight. it now sounds like it is burnt up. lol. not going to have cats in my house when i move out. it maybe liked the suction or something. lol. i'll take pics for sure later. some of the burnt buds also. the lowryders are def having a prob. they are large and not yielding very well. they look healthy and are growing but the buds are not getting very big. i know its not lack of light. they look great. a couple of them seem to be densening up. but not like i hoped. not sure what it is. maybe since theyre large they need alot more time. its been 60 days today and they look nowhere near finished. also i collected about 500 seeds so far from my homemade accidental cross. lol. prob wont bother saving anymore. just the lowryder seeds. they seem ready to fall anytime.

If you really want a souvenier do what me and my buddy did with our first grow. we went to the dollar store and got a tiny glass jar. we melted clear plastic beads into it until they were liquid. we then dropped a small bud in it and let it harden. just polish it up into a golfball size and its nice. almost looks storebought but there a few bubbles. but def worth it. i got the idea from a buddy of mine whos tarantula died and he did it to a 1 foot wide spider. his looks crazy. but shaped like the frying pan he used. lol. try it. just use a gram. be back later.
and i got a car. mint 1984 cadillac fleetwood 2 door. going to put some 22s on it for sure. detroit is prob the best spot to get rims anywhere. cant wait. also havnt spent a dollar in 3 paychecks. except car but that doesnt count. lol.

the only thing that sucks about keeping a souvenier is that you forget after awhile of having it that it is there. technically it is still illegal to have. dont get busted for a big ass stem. lol. or a keychain bud. lol. but it could happen.

dam that sucks, i got hanna pen meters and they work great...its almost impossible to fix...only like 20 bucks...i would be orderin a new one asap... you must keep the girls happy..:peace:
I second that. GH makes a good liquid ph tester to have on hand in case you have or think you have a problem with your meter. But by no means does it replace having a meter. It's so much better than the strips.

i got that GH liquid tester. ive used it my whole year and 1/2 of growing. it works. but so annoying. i found digital ones on ebay for 20 bux.... way worth it... instead of thinking" is it green yellow, or yellow green".. Pe@ce..
