DO NOT USE MIRACLE GROW SOIL. Yes I used it, and will regret it till the day I die. Those little continuous feed balls release WAY too much nutrients for a young cannabis plant. That soil will burn the shit out of whatever you plant in it. It didn't even get good results when I transplanted...

I imagine the LST sativa will be done in roughly 2-3 weeks, I started flowering in early september. The other plant is taking forever though, she had some nute burn early on which I believe to be the cause. Luckily she has no amber hairs like the LST does, so she should have time to put on...

No worries man, that was many pages back. Yah I added four 40 watts and tossed the 65 watt, it had a 4100k color temperature which wasn't doing any good. I started with 2 warm white and 2 daylight, and then I switched to 4 warm white when I went into flower. I think they're doing great for...

Dang knowboddy was right. I looked it up and any soil-less growing is referred to as hydroponics. I am a man and I can admit when I'm wrong. I think its kind of stupid, bubbleponics, aeroponics, and normal ebb and flow or drip emitter systems are all so fundamentally different. Aeroponics...

Alright I have another pic update for everyone. These are all pics of my LST sativa which I expect will be ready for harvest in about 2 or 3 weeks. The first three are the main cola's, the fourth is all of the cola's pictured side by side(the funny thing is the short one on the far left would...

Yes, smell is very important. I always say if a dealer is taking the time to cure his herb, he actually cares about its quality. Show me you care, and I show you the money! Plus most dealers don't even know what curing is, so it means they know what they're doing too. Oh and don't get me...

Yah I would say if you are worried about the gloss of your fans you have nothing to worry about... I have never heard of this being a plant problem, ever.

Apparently stressing a plant right before harvest can increase resin production, I think this is what you guys are talking about. A lot of outdoor growers wait until after the first frost to pull em. I am confused as to why everyone pops a boner when they see the color purple though. Like...

This is not true. Not all soil-less growing is called hydroponics. You may have heard of aeroponics and bubbleponics. Neither of these are hydroponics, and neither use soil. I would also not recommend growing in rockwool unless it is used in hydroponics. You can use it if you want, but it...

I highly doubt you're N defficient if you're feeding with full strength nutes, its probably nutrient burn. Its very easy to burn your plants at that stage, dial the nutes back to 1/2 strength and wait for a couple of days to see how they like it. Plants needs vary so that would explain why you...

I think organics are pretty important, chem fertilizers will produce harsher bud. If you use organic fertilizers like Pure Blend Pro you will see it pay off in flavor and in yield.

I realize I should have given credit to someone else for that activated carbon filter, its from a thread I've seen on here. The author is Wolfman Zen and he is one of the best DIY guys on this site.

Yeah I think its probably way to late to try an outdoor grow this season. Maybe transplant them into containers and bring them inside under some light. Try to get an HID but if you're broke just use a lot of CFL's, you'll get more out of this than you would outdoors I think.

You can make a very simple carbon filter using nothing more than some pantyhose, activated carbon(found in walmarts fish section), one small wire pen holder, and one slightly larger pen holder(both pen holders also found at walmart). The steps are as follows: 1.Pour some activated carbon in...

I'm guessing if he still even has plants that they're damn close to harvest, he was a couple weeks ahead of my grow and I'm getting close myself.

P.S. the idea of controlling temp with the fridge cooling system was a bad one anyway. Good in theory, but the air that fridges blow is too cold, it would have been like it was growing outdoors in Florida, but with gusts of wind from the arctic. To simplify it would stress the hell out of your...

I read the entire post, then pooped in my hand and threw it at someone walking down the sidewalk in front of my house. Yes, I am crazy. I think the idea sounds pretty good. Right now I have two plants in flower in about the same size area as that, they're doing just fine, one of the plants I...

I don't think I agree with who started this thread, growing any pot is worth it. Right now I'm just finishing up my first grow. I tried to prepare myself and do a lot of reading before I started. I ran into some problems, of course, but I worked through them and now I expect to yield roughly...

Just so you don't think I'm full of bullshit... I am only working on finishing up my first grow. I was told to give plants a 24 hour dark period before harvest, but I don't really know whether or not it works, just figured it couldn't hurt. It very well could be bullshit.

You are reading way too much into this here. A half day will not have much of a bearing on your plants potency, or anything else for that matter. Buy a pocket microscope from radioshack for 10 dollars, wait for a ratio of 50/50 cloudy/amber trichomes, at the end of its last 12 hour day of...
