Translation: "Hurt your plant. I did, and if anything it made it heal itself and waste energy. Only delayed my harvest a few weeks." Scary, but this makes sense to some people.

Seems to me that there would be an incredible amount of vegetative time involved with getting a plant to develop multiple root systems. I wonder what possible benefit could justify doing this instead of multiple plants other than keeping the total number low for legal reasons. If you made 10...

Cannabis plants are vascular. Nutrients and water flow through their xylem and phloem much like blood flows through our own veins and arteries. Think of the leaves as little stomachs spread out around the plant, using photosynthesis instead of acid to 'digest' nutrients into usable compounds...

Lookin at this guy's link, I'd say you're likely safer using something like those that other people are possibly buying too rather than something unique to your design.

Here's what I would ask myself... Was there something extremely stressful that the plant was exposed to that caused it to turn? If yes, then I would play with the seeds and see if any expressed good genetics when grown out. If no, then I would assume that it would not take an extreme amount of...

Indeed, boring normal baggies... but fill them with exciting exotic dank bud and nobody will ever look at the bag!

"How can I make sure that every bag of controlled substances I sell illegally has a unique marking on it indicating that they all came from the same place?" That's what I read out of your question. And I agree with Logzz, horrible idea. If you need a snazzy bag to sell your herb, just get...

In my experience, cannabis doesn't take back it's own foliage unless it is nutrient deficient. If your leaves are dropping during flowering, you should revisit your feeding practices.

One day my chick made me go for a walk around the neighborhood with her. I caught a whiff and followed it for near a quarter mile through a housing development. I narrowed it down to one of two houses. Who knows how much they had growing in there, but I smelled their INDOOR grow from a few...

I wonder if poultry farmers pluck the chickens feathers to let them direct more energy to the eggs. Completely non-applicable analogy, I know, but this is the thought that runs through my head when people post this kind of stuff.

They sure do look healthy. You want hairs. Every pair is coming out of a calyx that will later become swollen and laden with trichomes. The more the merrier. good job so far.

LST. Here was a pic I took a while ago of a Purple Power sativa that I grew out in a 4" pot. It was a seed project, I wasn't going for yield at all. It was only about 15" tall including the pot at harvest. The main stem was a little over 2 foot, spiraled like a pinwheel. If you like that sativa...

I've taken some pretty big cuttings. From my experience, they root surprisingly quickly, but can dry out very easily. I have had best results rooting big clones in a glass of RO water with about 25ppm nutrients(tap water left to sit for a few hours would be fine), replacing the water daily...

Stir it back into the soil if this can be done without damaging the roots. Mold is a very natural part of the composting process, and exists where you don't see it in all soil with healthy microbe colonies. If it's growing comfortably on TOP of the soil, then your soil is likely too moist. The...

I'm not trying to discourage from flushing in outdoor grows in the ground, but it can only have limited effects. In dirt, solutes will move from more concentrate to less concentrate, so after you flush your ferts into the ground, they will creep back into your plant's less concentrated root...

On another note, If you're planning to continue 1500ppm until done, I would reconsider the flush or ramp the nutes back down toward harvest. Forgoing the flush is certainly arguable, but IMO this is not applicable unless you are feeding at the same rate the plant is consuming. At harvest time...

200 gal is a pretty big buffer zone. Aside from contamination, a good reason to routinely change the res is because of the changing concentrations of nutrients in the solution. You can keep the ppm in acceptable range with your meter, but can you verify that the NPK after 2 weeks is the same as...

Well, it would be kind of ignorant of me to try to make any assumptions about your uncle's grow when I know nothing about it other than the strain, wouldn't it? That was my point. To say that somebody absolutely needs a 2 week flush or that a flush is absolutely bogus without knowing much...

I'm not disagreeing with you Fly. In fact, I lean more toward a 'less is more' attitude when it comes to nutrients. I try to to feed them only what they will use, so if you tried that test with my grows, you'd probably get what you expect. This guy might run his soil super hot or maybe he does...

I would certainly not go as far as to say flushing is a myth. Have you looked at any of the pics on this forum man? Some people nuke their shit half to death. Perhaps a more fitting piece of advice: If your plants have not been overfed, and there is not much realistic possibility of mineral...
