    Quick seed question

    Never dig up seeds. Either grow em or don't or you kill them. Any moisture triggers them to grow then drying them just kills em. Yes I am speaking from experience I experimented with about 1000 bag seeds just to see what would happen with different methods and stress. Always store seeds in mason...

    First timer, everything look how its supposed to?

    I totally agree, the scope will give you the 411 on exactly when to pull. Clear kind of foggy is up buzz, amber is relaxing with good couch time, total amber is total couch time, unless a sativa it will take away the edge and give couch time at end of buzz. At this point lots of sugar. Molases...

    What the hell is wrong with my LA Confidential???

    Kind of hard to say what without the food/light/moisture/temps. That said I have one that is almost scentless unless I overdose with molases and bud candy, and carboload, and then it gets a fresh laundry scent. One of my strange MK Ultra crosses. I have noticed that when I give them more sugar...

    First grow take a look opinions

    Looks very similar to my first set up with a 400 Mh/Hps convertable. You need to run the ducting like this. Place filter in highest position possible to extract the heat, run the ducting from filter through light, then out through the fan to get the most heat extraction. Also consider insulated...

    help plants look werid...

    I would flood three times and let drain and not water for a until almost dry then give a 1/4 to 1/3 dose of peters to prevent any lock out, wait another week and resume food on a 50% of dosage of peters to get it used to stable food again.

    Guide to Nutrient Deficiency or Toxicity

    I saved my plants by flushing, washing with ro water, soaking in water with h202, then giving a 1/4 strength dose of peters. O tolerance will kill your plants at any strength if you don't do what I did to save them, they just keep burning even though you did not feed them a damn thing. It also...

    Guide to Nutrient Deficiency or Toxicity

    I used 0 tolerance to get rid of gnats and it worked, but the plants looked like they began to die the next day so I washed them off several times and saved half of them. The problem now is lock out! Which is odd because the food was very low and fine until I used this crap. It did the same...

    ghs bubba kush

    I know I am late on this one but I grew it and didn't like it as much as the BC version. I was given a BC version that grew bigger and stronger buds. My germ rate on the GH Bubba was 10/10. All plants looked like clones they were so perfect. I have no complaints for the price and they were very...

    It has been a week since I put seeds in root riots. I placed them on a bed of rockwool cubes phd to 5.5 and soaked well inside a one quart glad food container with eight holes in top.

    germinating some Herijuana

    yes once and it worked, but not on the Heri. I think I will use a dome, root riots, and soak em till they drop. I don't know how old seeds are, but when I soak em I will be able to tell. If they take more than about 10 hours to drop they are usually about 8 months or so old. If they take 16...

    are sponge pots and root riots the same thing? I didn't get mine from sannie, so I don't have the sponge pots or the fert he sends with it. I think the fert he uses is similar to liquid karma, or am I wong? I have had great success using a plastic bag on a heating mat and using root riots and...

    germinating some Herijuana

    They come from woodhorse. The germ problem is the outer shell. I have found that some growers actually sand the seam of the shell. I tried that and got zip. I tried soaking and then seed soil and got zip. This time I am thinking of using speed sprout, but even though it is made for hard seeds I...
