    Anyone know

    I have seen healthy vibrant plants that want a lot of root space act like that when roots get restricted or too much water. It is getting plenty of nitrogen.

    it was actually an OK amount by the State Regulations - they allow for 200 ppb or .2 ppm. any organic fertilizer from the sea has a lot of arsenic in it. Dolomite lime, fishbone meal, kelp all can contribute to arsenic in your buds.

    Heavy metals in rock dust

    Kelp can stay in the ocean as far as I'm concerned. I know it is arsenosugars - but the break down to human toxicity Arsenic. Don't need the arsenic

    Humidity jumped up by 30% after adding buds - what to do?

    logic tells me that if the room is at 45% - enclosing it in any space would always be higher as the plant is releasing moisture. just hang it in the room.

    Humidity jumped up by 30% after adding buds - what to do?

    What is the RH naturally - outside the room. 71% would be a stifling humid day. Not sure why you would put them in such a tight space to dry? That is just like putting them in a jar but much larger That cabinet would be ok if you could control the air - if you cannot then it's a big jar.

    New grow Dr. Earth

    After reviewing the grow logs - I suspect that it was possibly bark mulch that was mixed into the soil for that crop. We will be testing that bulk mulch at U Penn for $24.

    New grow Dr. Earth

    We need to look at everything including double checking the lab that tested. This was an absurd amount of Arsenic and we used less than half what their Cannabis schedule recommended. Not fair for us to jump at the fertilizer

    Seed Storage System Question

    We always have a backup of our seeds in tubes and in a fireproof box. Silica-gel??? Why would you want to pull the moisture out of seeds?

    Defoliation

    I guess I should not knock humans. They sure can build killing machines well. Got that down. Brilliant. Put em back in the caves.

    Money no object LED

    I shut down my HPS - it worked well, but I hated the heat, buying expensive bulbs. Look at that chart - Holy wasted money batman. These companies are screwing us bad. Should not need to pay over $1/watt

    Should I harvest

    No not yet. I would check to make sure they are getting 12 hours of dark. and the soil dies between watering. Are they Autos? I find that in the final three weeks of flower a lot of the bulk comes from within the bud and is a bit harder to see the progress. You will notice the stems/plant is...

    Defoliation

    Only humans could think they can get a plant to produce more by removing its food source. If you think you have great buds after exfoliation - you should have seen what you would have had if you left the plant alone. I find the best buds are those that use the nitrogen stored in the sugar...

    Anyone ever try one of these garage LED's to veg?

    With all the marketing and lies on LED - I try not to pay anymore than 1$ per watt of LED right now I use a 300w LED full spectrum with some far red - that cost $260. And they are dimmable. I am seeing that these are as good or better than California Lightworks - with the exception of heat...

    Any clues?

    Cal/mag every watering? Really? I only need that when I find deficient - I guess my dolomite lime keeps it in check.

    Adding Emerson Effect to a strip light

    Far red light - I have found you do not need them on any longer than 30 minutes at the beginning/end of day. They will allow sativa plants to finish a week sooner and bulkier buds. For strains that already have hard tight nugs - why bother.
