I assume you mean the seeds are produced by self-pollination. If the plant's genetics are what inclined it to herm, then the resulting seeds will carry these same genetics. If environmental issues caused the herm, then the resulting seeds will produce plants that will likely herm under similar...

You're not going to match hps with fluorescents unless you're using good t5's with individual reflectors. Even then it's hard. If maximizing yield is your biggest concern, use the hps.

Misting during flowering is a no-no. How far along are they, and how much of your crop is covered. All may not be lost.

No kidding, I just cited an example of a 1.25lb pull off of 600w LED. They probably are the future of marijuana cultivation, but I always assume a new grower very much has cost in mind. Maybe growing isn't his thing. Maybe he'll breed the next superstrain that autoflowers and gives 1 fem seed...

I'm not knocking your grow, or your equipment. I even said your plants looked nice. I'm saying this guy has a fixture available to him for 50 bucks that's capable of yielding him a quarter pound off one grow. You're suggesting he buy a single 14w $150 fixture that can't yield a quarter pound...

Brother, hats off to you for sticking yourself out there and experimenting with the tech. I don't grow with them yet, cuz the best i've seen yet was 550g pulled off of 600w of the newest led spectrums. Comparable to 600w hps no doubt, but much more expensive to buy the lights. Your little plants...

I wouldn't tell a guy just getting his feet wet with growing to buy the most expensive tech out there that is still well under development. I've seen some impressive LED grows, but that little 14w panel will not flower a plant even remotely as well as a 150w hps. To flower well you need the good...

Is it well ventilated around the plants? Are you misting? Usually water sitting on the buds causes rot.

Well, hell, you just cut off her body. Give her a break for being a little freaked out. If your soil is moist enough for rooting and you've made a proper cut, she'll look fine tomorrow.

Your light cycle will tell them when to flower. How much light determines how much flowers. Their genes and your care determine how yummy the flower. Of course more lights would help, read up on LST techniques as well so you can get those bulbs covering as much plant as possible. I personally...

sounds like it isn't able to draw in enough moisture. when was it cut?

Hydroton is more appropriate for dwc. Rockwool needs to drain out its excess water. In a dwc it never gets this chance. See if you can remove any of the rockwool and replace with hydroton or some other very fast-draining medium. You can probably get a good chunk of it out of there without...

Well, don't go crazy with the water. Try giving them about the volume of their container. If you're using tap water, let the chlorine evaporate and make sure yours doesn't have some crazy ph out of the tap(mines 8.5). The idea is exactly to reduce the nutrients in your soil. Just for now until...

Yes John, you won't get an overwatering problem cuz you aren't going to continue overwatering. It's just better to give them more water than they need once right now than let them sit in soil thats hurting them. Let them grow a few more nodes then start in slowly with food. They should recover...

Well, you haven't gotten a response yet again. I can't speak for everybody, but I can tell you why I haven't yet. It's not obvious to me. The pics don't show a severe condition from what I can see. Present, but not severe. I could say from two different pics that it might be a toxicity or...

you could put a bulkhead between the fan and lights, or make a small duct for the fan with a bend in it. Check out some DIY carbon filters and get creative using the carbon to block the light.

She looks like a hybrid, the long fingers say at least some sativa. Indica and sativa grow with different characteristics. It's all weed.

Are these things readily available yet? Bright as hell, but the spectrum curve looks just about opposite of ideal. Output to 1100nm... that's stepping more than a little bit into infrared, not sure how good for plants that is.

Nothing looks too bad man, she's just getting started.

Each time you cut from a cutting you are getting further away from the seed that gave the plant it's genetics. Mutations will develop randomly during cell division, and any growth from those cells will have the mutation. taking cuttings from cuttings increases your chances that the genetics will...
