    Help! Leafs dying

    Sorry to just 'stick my nose in' so late in the game :) I'm sure it's less likely but could it be an excess of iron? I believe that can show as 'rusty' leaves at the top of the plant.

    Why spend $$$ on a flowering lamp if you have a $ veg lamp?

    Depending on temps, I'll probably go all Quantum next year. At the mo (in flower - approx 4 plants) I'm using 400 watts of hps in winter (keeps the tent at 23 / 24 degree's, lights on - I run through the night), perhaps in the last half of flower i'll experiment with upping the watts to 600...

    Please Help Male or Female?

    fyi - it's only what I have observed (in the strains I grow) but I have no science to back it up :) White pistils (equals female) thats the one thing people seem to agree on.

    Please Help Male or Female?

    looks male (plus I can't see any white pistils). Another hint, that seems to hint male for me, is the main stem has that 'hexagonal' shape (as opposed to a smoother, rounded main stem). I also find males grow faster and generally have a more 'stocky' build. Males also seem (to me) less...

    Washing buds?

    I've washed in the past. At the moment I'm growing in a 1 meter square tent with around four plants; I just cover the floor with a few towels and give each plant (the buds mainly) a good spray down with a pump water sprayer (just normal water and some pressure). After that I turn the fans on...

    Double the yield!!!

    go the whole hog. Build a railroad track system between the two tents/rooms. Fit the pots to flat wagons and set the whole thing on a timer so the pots transfer themselves between locations! :cool: ..or, do the same thing with the light :)

    What strain are u growing

    Nice plants (all). I'm focusing on three strains, producing crosses with a male Kerala x Skunk#1 (87% Sativa). They are: Malawi x Panama-100% Sativa (Ace seeds), Strawberry Cream-70% Sativa (Breaking Buds) and Strawberry Shortcake-mostly Indica (Dark Horse Genetics). Found 'keepers' and have...

    Extreme newbie wax yield trim vs buds H.E.L.P

    interesting thread. I recently started looking into wax as well (due to a re-newed interest in vaping and these new wax liquidizer products). Bought 1 inch wide hair straighteners and went the 'press' route. I'll throw out the random info I've been amassing to date :) Like others have said...

    Why does everyone dislike Auto's?

    popular with outside gorilla growers I believe. And you can get more grows through the year outside (as they're not cycle dependent). I grow inside so autos would mean no repotting (they seem to prefer 'no stress' from my experience), less ferts (but with the higher risk of stressing from over...

    4000k LED bulbs (12.5 watts each) for my mother tent, yes!

    although I'm playing with hps and cooltubes in my flower tent at the moment ..the thought occurred to take a 1m2 board, interweave a bunch of splitters+bulbs onto it (keeping it in a safe power range :) and seeing what I can flower in a scrog. Wondering 'watt' power would be acceptable in a...

    Which strains DON'T smell like pine, lemon or berries?

    Check out ACE seeds (imo; particularly their Malawi and Panama strains, plus the crosses of those). I found my first dream Sativa there :bigjoint:

    Do normal people use the term "monkey it up"?

    Not wishing to throw a monkey wrench into proceedings, but I hadn't heard the phrase 'monkey it up' until now (UK based). Offhand, I would have assumed it was derivative from one of the many older sayings with the word 'monkey' in them. I know (at least from the 'monkey' sayings I came into...

    What did you accomplish today?

    today I got paid to play computer games for 7 hrs (which was quite the experience). Then went home, burped my Strawberry shortcake (Dark Horse Genetics) jars. And now I lie on the sofa, having a laugh listening to an old Art Bell (RIP) show ..and giving one of the SS buds a test smoke...

    Roseanne Barr says she's moving to Israel when 'The Conners' premieres

    With that voice, I always thought she was the female reincarnation of James Cagney: "yeah see, I'm movin' ta Israel ..mwah, just try'an stop me!" Frankly I feel more sorry for all the rest of the crew effected (which probably helped this new project get off the ground). Sad, but I think I'll...

    9 mothers huddled under 65 watts of blue cfl ...

    ..although that could be the beginning line of some joke, as the hours of darkness close in I thought I'd see how little wattage I could get away with. What we have here is a single mother tent (approx. 19"x39") with seven matured dwarfed mothers (approx. 12 inches in height), plus two 'on...
