No webs, no white spots or black spots, just inspected the hell outta them, and I'm good! WHEW!!!

Dude, just let them do their thing. You want them to bush up a bit, then around 2 months start them flowering by going to a 12/12 light cycle.

I'm with Fishy on this one. I can't see squat (hardly) with my loupe (30x). I have a magni-visor (3.5x), a 30x loupe and the RS scope. I rely on the scope at 60x to judge color and percentage. I use the 100x setting just because it's like looking at an alien landscape. My loupe is great for...

Are you saying that you haven't trimmed anything off them? They are definitely in flower, no doubt, but the foliage is looking kinda sparse. Dude, don't cut leaves, any leaves, I don't care WHO told you to. Those leaves convert the nutes into usable food/fuel for the plant. Buds need these, and...

I ain't to be a dick, but quit thinking for the plant!!! Believe me, it knows whats best for it. At this stage in the game, you're trying to get as much vegetative growth as you can. At about 3 weeks or so, the plant will need a bit of nutes. Start out at no more than 1/2 strength, preferably...

I have enough room to raise the lights another foot or so, do for now I'm just gonna watch em. If they aint gonna get any taller than another foot, I'm good with that. I woke up this morning and a few of the tops were up INSIDE the parabolic reflectors. Kinda gives a whole new meaning to the...

What are you using for soil? I think you're feeding too soon. You won't need nutes for about a month with off the shelf soil. The one looks a bit nute burnt. How often do you water? Seedlings need more water than an established plant. I water about every 4 or 5 days, and I feed sparingly. The...

Bonz, I aint exactly sure of the strain, it's that same bagseed I started out with. That last grow produced some of the best bud most of my friends have seen in a while. I'm pretty sure it's a Sativa, or a high sativa content hybrid. What ever it is, it changed my mind about ordering genetics...

Harsh. If I didn't know any better, I'd say that ya'll got something against Beaners & Taco-benders. Not all schwag is Mexican. In fact, I'd bet that some of it starts out as good genetics. My bagseed grows bear that out. You just cannot get the kind of quality with a large commercial grow that...

Dude, pH is crucial. Why would you scrimp on something that critical? Call some of your local nurseries, or pool & patio shops. Most offer free (or cheap) pH testing for either the soil, or run-off water. I'd buy cheap assed buckets, but thats about it. But don't get cheap on the things that...

Yeah, My horizontal space is 7' wide. I have them arranged in rows of 3 (side to side), 4 deep. Ya think thats too crowded for bud development under the canopy? So I'm OK super cropping the mains? I "fimm'ed" them at about 1 month, and most of them have 4 or more mains! You gonna wonder why in...

HOLY FUCK DUDE!!! Who told you to butcher the plants?

Actually..............................It was Freewheelin' Franklin that said that. (Your sig line)

My canopy got outta control, and I have about 1/3 of my tops that are significantly taller than the rest. Do I leave them be, or pinch them and lay them over (super-crop)? They are about 2 1/2 weeks into flower. TLP

Mine have been losing an inordinate amount of leaves , lower mostly. They are yellowing and dropping. Could be normal, but I'm kinda concerned. How do you know if they are spider mites? I know this sounds lame. I have been kinda keeping an eye on them, but mostly the upper sections (Where the...

You have GOT to be kidding.....................................................right?

Thats what I'm talking about!!! There was a thread on RIU on making your own USB scope out of a Radio Shack scope and a web cam. You can't MAKE a decent one for less than $60. If it has decent resolution, that fucker is a steal!!!!!!

Yeah, I thought about going the Hydroponic route myself, but I'm doing good with soil. From what I hear, with hydro, if things start heading south, they do so REALLY QUICK. With soil, if you get a problem, it's a gradual thing (for the most part). And soil doesn't need pumps, timers, etc, or...

From what I can gather having read a shitload of posts dumping on MG, most people don't like it 'cuz it's not very newbie friendly. You won't need to add ferts for at least a month, and if you use MG ferts after that, use them at 1/4 strength to start. Miracle Gro works. It's just that there are...

Are these little fuckers destructive? Do they attack the roots? They're called "Fungus Gnats", is that because they are attracted to a fungus in the soil? I have some in my room, OK, a few more than some. Do I need to kill them? If they aint gonna hurt anything, I'll let 'em be.
