    Balls to the Wall grow, Riddleme Gets Serious

    Supercropping should help since more of the plant is now getting the same amount of red/far-red. Whereas if you just left the plant to grow vertically, there is a greater amount of far-red/red light reaching the lower parts and that will lead to stretching, so crop away I say. I dont have much...

    You haven't seen the flower tent.The plant in veg dont look so bad, but the plants in the flower tent are sad looking. They'll make an appearance soon enough though. For my next grow, there will be 6 Skunk Haze clones scrogged. It will be my first time trying scrog. Four clones of A, 2 of D...

    Plant Moisture Stress - Symptoms and Solutions

    Vinegar will lower the alkalinity of your well water. Id give that a try to see how much of an effect it has. If its not enough, then try a mix of ro and well water w/ the vinegar and see how well it works out.

    Now for some Skunk Haze bud shots. These buds are nothing but foxtails. They are very frosty once you look up close. They have really short trichome stalks, so they dont appear to be very frosty from afar, but upon closer inspection the trichomes are jam packed. Skunk Haze A yielded 52 grams...

    Im sorry I haven't had any updates in awhile. Ive been a bit burned out. Its hard to do updates after working, then spend a couple hours of time with the ladies, and then finally do updates. I underestimated how much work this many plants are. Im also ashamed of how poorly Ive cared for my...

    You can use plant growth retardants that block the synthesis of gibberellic acid. This will reduce internodal length, but I wouldn't bother. You've seen how tight the internodes are on my mostly sativa skunk haze using just MH.

    Plant Moisture Stress - Symptoms and Solutions

    Adding lime to your soil when you have alkaline water isn't the best idea. I found this website for you. It should help you out. http://www.extension.purdue.edu/extmedia/HO/HO-242-W.pdf

    It could possibly lead to mold, if the buds are dense enough, but invest in a dehumidifier if humidity is at a high enough level to cause mold. As for advantages, shorter internodes will give you more full sticks of buds instead of nuggets of bud.

    It needn't be -5 cooler. It can be the same as your night temperature, and this will help reduce stretching. If you go too low, you risk it being too cold for maximum rates of growth and photosynthesis. My buddy sets his day temps to 75, night temps 70, cold morning dump set at 70 as well if...

    I came across that page too, and it has much of the same info the email had among other stuff. Ill see if he still has a copy of the email, and will post any extra info that could be of use.

    Well guys, I seem to have lost the email that contained the info Riddleme had mentioned before, but I did find a webpage that has the same info. Its a somewhat long read, and I wont summarize it. If you want the knowledge, you will just have to read all of it...

    I definitely believe genetics play a role in how much plants stretch. Some are just more sensitive to far red light/infrared I believe. I have noticed this with my Skunk Hazes. When I grew them from seed, they were under 1200w of HPS, and well lets just say they stretched until they couldn't...

    Ive got lots of updates, but Im too high to get to it. I threw a few pics in Riddlemes thread of a clone. Tomorrow Ill start throwing up some pics n what not.

    Okay guys, Im gonna get some pics up I promise. It'll take me awhile though. Im all hazed out o my mind. Supercropping/LST + 400w MH = Ubertight nodes? This lady i going to give me super monster clones in a week or so. Switching from HPS to MH in my veg chamber is responsible for much of this...

    Im actually surprised you've made it to week 8 before starting to experience an N def. That CNS has too little N to support your plants. I would give it some of your MG, but not quite sure what dosage is required as I haven't used it. Here is a great link that will help you better understand...

    JTR hasn't been difficult to clone ime. I doubt you'd have much problem if you did grow it. As for Skunk Haze, well Its pretty damned good. Better than my two JTR ladies, but definitely harder to grow. Lanky Sativas that take 90-120 days to flower. My first time growing a Haze hybrid, and well...

    Chainseeker, give it a go on a single plant and see how it recovers. Not all strains like being cropped though. I tried it with some Skunk Haze plants, and they all formed huge knots very quickly after being cropped, while TGA's 3rd D, and JTR never recovered from it and actually bled from it...

    Yeah, there is a long flower pheno of Satori that typically will take 80-90 days. I dont think its that common though. Just my luck, my one lady falls into that category. I definitely think I bit off more than I could chew. Hopefully, Ill have everything running more smoothly on the next...

    Uncle Ben's Topping Technique to Get 2 or 4 Main Colas

    It would be best to top now if you are looking for possibly four main colas. I typically top around 14 or so days. You can top sooner if your plant is growing quickly though. 5 nodes would be a good number, so go ahead and top now.

    It sure does feel like a desert here. Its been high 80's or 90's every single day. Hottest summer Ive ever had to endure. Some dumb ass on the radio today said, "Its gonna be a great day today. 88 degrees. Are you kidding me? Thats an awful day..Gee Ive only had one million days in a row of 85+...
