    MAC1 purple leaves. Deficiency and strain? If you know MAC1 thoughts please

    I understand purple edges and veins on leaves can typically be a deficiency, as well as normal for some strains, and a result of cold weather. We don't get lower in the morning than mid 50's, so that is doubtful. I've also read MAC1 can do the purple thing because it's a trait of the strain -...

    C-4 So close

    Predicted flowering time can pretty much be thrown out the window, you still have white pistils. Mine are supposed to be 9 weeks, and are not ready for at least a few more weeks. Plants are ripe when they are ripe, not when someone estimates the time. Hope it turns out to your liking though

    Smoke Moldy Weed This Can Happen

    Josh Gates had a special show few nights ago about the curse of King Tut on the Discovery channel. Quite a few people that first opened the tomb, sarcophagus and inspected the mummy died within a few years under seemingly mysterious circumstances. so it was thought it was the curse. They've...

    Final dry?

    It did first day or 2 they were hung in the closet. Can't really describe the smell now, it's obviously weed but not a strong smell

    Final dry?

    Been in the 80's/low 90's past few weeks, house temps never get above 78. I have no way of knowing the RH, but I may look into a meter if I grow again next year. Even then, how would I 'moisturize" the air? Although we had heavy rain few weeks back, just for context our area's relative humidity...

    I Think My Son Is Messing Up

    Why are you letting your son dictate your grow? There's plenty of grow info on this site and elsewhere that you should be making the decisions here.

    Final dry?

    I hang them in a closed closet, I just cut off the branches and hang those, thinking it would slow the drying. After 2 days the outside is crispy and leaves shrunk into the buds for the most part. I then take the branches and put them inn a rolled up paper grocery bag and put in a drawer...

    Final dry?

    In the past after a certain point of jar curing, I'd just leave the jars closed aside from a few burps/checks. Buds were not bone dry, had a light bit of spring to them, but never seemed to harden up. Is there a good way to dry them well aside from just leaving the jars open?

    Smoke Moldy Weed This Can Happen

    What was the diagnosis, what was wrong with your rib? And why would you think smoking would cause that, that would be your lungs? More detail would be helpful here. I know I've smoked moldy weed before (not intentionally, I just didn't know) and no issues. Obviously mold can cause health...

    Creeper weed

    You know - the kind you smoke and wonder why you aren't high. Then 15 minutes later you're pretty toasted. Back in the day when the only weed you could buy was on the street, and it was mostly brown seeded sativa you'd run across the creeper effect every now and then. Haven't had this effect in...

    Drying at low humidity

    After all these years I still struggle with drying/curing, shit always dried too fast. I'm in Nor Cal. I learned quickly that hanging for a few days in a closed closet dries them to a crisp, so I've typically hung them for maybe a day until the outside feels like it's starting to get crispy and...

    Whatcha think, week or 2, or more?

    Sounds about right. Sometimes I need to step back for a different perspective. Top 2 pics are MAC 1, bottom 2 Dosidos Sherbert

    Whatcha think, week or 2, or more?

    I know the basics and have grown many times but when inspecting these daily it's hard to be objective. 2 different plants, 2 phots of each

    Spary Or Not

    Damn...You'll get root rot and dead plants doing that. Move them to pots with good drainage. Not sure who is advising you but they seem pretty ignorant about growing

    Spary Or Not

    Wait, your pots don't have drainage?

    Soil

    I like Ocean Forest, much easier than mixing your own or going soiless IMO. I've never had it mess with my feeding, it will give the plants what they need for months before I need to start feeding. And if you pay attention, it's simple to know WHEN to start adding nutes

    Giant fan leaves

    At this stage there is no reason to defoliate, you'd just be taking away energy that fuels plant growth and bud formation. Right now it looks like all your leaves are getting light, which is a good thing

    Well this sucks

    It's supposed to be harmless on veggies up til harvest. I think some states don't allow weed to be sold with traces of it during testing, but there haven't been studies to prove it's harmful. I can tell you I've used it every year I've grown, in large part for mites, whitelflies and thrips, but...
