Use 3-5 gal. growbags which are available at most grow stores. Then you can tweak the soil used to suit your needs. I use dolomite lime on soil under bags to help buffer acidic soil so by time roots reach soil it's in a ph range the plants can tolerate. Bags can be buried a bit so roots exiting...

I have seed to share and trade , Blue S.A.G.E . Looking for some Mandala Seeds genetics, anyone has seed to share and /or trade let me know.

Great site, enjoying it. Good to see people with same interest in herb. I like to grow a three-way hybrid from Irish Rose Seeds called Blue S.A.G.E.. It's a cross of Blueberry and White Rhino to produce Blue Rhino. The Blue Rhino was then crossed with S.A.G.E to produce Blue S.A.G.E. The seeds...

Pyrethrins break down and dissipate when exposed to air and HID lighting within a few hours, to have them remain effective longer try applying prior to lights turning off. Not toxic to animals and humans when eaten, but becomes toxic to people when inhaled. Use proper protective gear when applying.

I like to use organic brown sugar made from sugarcane called Sucanat, it has a natural molasses flavour and is used in same way as molasses. I add it during floral cycle to help bring out the herbs natural odours,flavours and taste. You can measure sugar content in plants foliage using a...

Check your local garden centre for a product called MYKE. It's a vegetable garden growth supplement which contains mychorzhial fungus. The fungus associates with plant roots and increases phosphorous uptake. Add to soil prior to planting or transplanting for best results. Use for organic...

I run 400W HPS for vegging cycle and a 1,000W HPS for floral cycle. Get nice compact buds with good density and weight with plenty of resin formation. Would prefer a 600W HPS for floral cycle just to save on cost of hydro and no big power fluctuation. 400W at 18/06 is 7200W and 600W at 12/12 is...

Whiteflies are attracted to yellow objects, so put some yellow-sticky traps on the tops of pots among the plants. Adult flies can be sucked from underside of leaves with a low powered vacuum cleaner,early in the light cycle when whiteflies are cold and slow moving. You can also shake plants and...

Try ducting cool air directly from outside into the cabinet and reduce lighting time to 18/06 to lessen heat build up. Increasing rate of air flow going in/out of cabinet will help also help. Don't let heat build up in room, make sure you have sufficient ventilation 24 hours a day.

To raise the sprouts up just add more soil to containers or cut down containers. So roots are not disturbed it would be best to cut containers down . Support seedlings with brass wire until strong enough.

Start flushing now if only 2 weeks are left. Flushing will enhance the taste and burnability of the final herb. Poorly flushed herb burns poorly and has a dark black ashe and is hot chemmy tasting. Use ph balanced water only for the final flushing period.

Dark period before harvesting allows plants to produce more THC resin. THC degrades when exposed to light. Dry plants in darkness and try to keep room temperature below 70F. Drying to quickly gives to much of a green taste. Everything else sounds OK and I prefer to harvest 5-7 days after the...

The yellowing and die off is a natural part of the floral cycle. Remove leaves as they die off and be sure to flush plants with water only for the last 2 weeks. Flushing will help to remove excess nutrients and promotes better burning herb with a nice gray ashe and no hot chemmy taste. Very nice...

Seedlings are planted to low in container which prevents proper ventilation. A lack of lighting is also detrimental to seedling development as is overwatering. Provide adequate amount of soil in container and be sure to give enough lighting and ventilation. Support seedlings when using...
