    2nd attempt at 1st grow...problems again :-(

    flowering seems to be going pretty slow...what ya think? Moved them out to the cold garage, I hope they don't have a hard time adjusting to cooler temps..with a small space heater at lights out it goes down to 60's...I always kept them 74-78 indoors, hope they can adjust, maybe it'll convince...

    Happy news on the seed front..www.marijuana-seeds.nl agreed since I had such crappy germ rates and males they decided to throw in some "freebies" with my new order. I ordered all feminized this time, 10 white rhino, 10- medi Bud(says up to 1200 gm/plant!), and 10-amsterdam haze, with that they...

    2nd attempt at 1st grow...problems again :-(

    OK..I have a serious question, can't seem to find the answers I am looking for on google or my books. The sunshine advanced #4 soil less mix I am using says to PH the nutes and h20 like it's hydro, so I have been PH'ing everything to 5.6.(usually after adding the gro, micro& bloom it averages...

    I'm always in there yacking at them and looking them over, but I need new glasses, so my sight isn't the best, I just mainly looked over the branches and foliage for potential problems, some were really flimsey and broke easily on the ww's and thc snows, don't think from what I read they are...

    just got out my book...those tear shaped things that I am referring to as "balls"...they are just the calyx's??? man I hope I didn't toss plants out of the light just because I saw their calyx!! The anatomical pics I have of males don't look like anything I've had here, either, but how long does...

    Damn I am so not sure on some of the alleged "males" I pulled, some look like they are flowering, but have no hairs...how long is too long to wait with them by the females? I mean, do the males get big and very noticeable before pouring out their pollen? So do I have time to wait awhile to be...

    2nd attempt at 1st grow...problems again :-(

    Decided to take pics tonight after lights out under natural/flash light..and they really don't look as light green as they do under 1600 watts of HPS! They may be just fine and dandy, though I do see some lighter green areas.

    I agree with the let them veg thinking, too. Why flip a 6" plant when it will grow 3' in 6 weeks of veg, a little more time=a lot more bud. I know people will grow a LOT of plant material in a short time for the quicker harvests, and sure if you have 99 it will be the same as a lot less big...
