    New to growing, what should I plant out if these seeds next!

    I would stay away from the longer flowering strains if i were you. Less chance of something going wrong in 8 weeks than 11 or 12! I grew a cheese on my 1st grow and highly recommend it. For a 1st timer. Very skunky so hope you have a carbon filter!? Was blown away by how much it actually smelt...

    DEALING WITH THE SPIDERMITES

    Maybe this could also be used only in veg to cut off there cycle if doing perpetual runs rather than what i had to do! Maybe once flowered plants are finished remove them, clean EVERYTHING with bleack/water solution. Wait a couple of days then wash treated vegged plants with pure water and put...

    DEALING WITH THE SPIDERMITES

    Thanks Bernie! And I thought the alcohol was used in the separation process? It is advised to not pick fruit within 1 day of using a neem oil spray. So surely must be pretty mild!? I've found neem oil to be one of the more natural, plant stress free sprays (in my experience) but yes I definitely...

    DEALING WITH THE SPIDERMITES

    My worst nightmare!! I had them for about 4 runs! Couldn't get rid of them. Once they are on your plants..... good luck! I tried all different sprays and read all the home remedies and nothing killed them. The best thing I used was a neem oil spray. Kept them at bay for sure but when i thought...

    DWC Stunted Growth...

    Hey rkymtnman! Was hoping for billys sake hed get some experienced members tune in!! I saw Billy state a few times he was running .8 EC.

    Hey Billy, 3rd monkey has a good point. Maybe dim or move the light away from the tops also. You don't need alot of light in veg. Wont be helping your cause. I still think you have a magnesium deficiency but the intensity of the light is making it worse!? Let us know how you go.

    Even if you don't go with advanced, maybe find a better base nutrient if you have the $ and definately a cal/mag supplement. Some strains are cal mag beasts. Atleast your still in veg Billy so you've only lost a bit of time. And also my experience from monster cropping is you have to veg for...

    DWC Stunted Growth...

    Hey 3rd monkey! Have a good look at the photo, you can see the dark veins all down the plant, telling me BIG magnesium deficiency. Also when that yellowing starts you know it's a very bad magnesium deficiency. Lol.

    DWC Stunted Growth...

    Yea sounds like it's worth a shot..... Just hope it's not from the nutes or addatives youve used that is causing a magnesium lockout? For the mean time I would suggest keeping your co2 where it is (even 500ppm?) And keep light a little further away, dont push them too hard, itl make it worse. Do...

    Yea roots look fine, looks like a magnesium deficiency to me! I have had a similar issue with my white widow x big bud. So I googled and googled the strain and adding co2 etc. And I saw a post (cant remember who it was) but he reckoned he had been battling with magnesium deficiency on this...

    Low Yield. Why?!

    I've also got a lemon og kush plant 7 weeks into flower. (Half lemon skunk and half og #18.) As far as i know the og #18 is sativa dominant. My lemon og looks to be only half way through flower and seems to be a nearly 100% sativa pheno! I presume this is from the og #18?? Maybe your og #18s...

    Low Yield. Why?!

    Ohhh from 5 plants. 1 oz a plant. Yeah pretty low yield..... And those temps are very low. I run 32 degrees Celsius but that's with 1250 ppm of co2. If I run lower temps with my co2 i dont see big benefits using co2 at 1250ppm. Unfortunately if 1 thing is not optimum you will not get optimum...

    1 or many plants?

    That's a great yield! Up to 1kg!! I use regular hps, sometimes throw in a little mh lighting for a wider spectrum. I've heard of people getting good yields with cmh. How do you compare cmh to hps??
