Get some miracle grow fertilizer. Get a bloom formula (higher PK and lower N). That should help alot and miracle does work. Just be very careful when using it as it can be fairly hot. Use less than the recommended amount and don't pour it in with the soil totally dried out. Water it first then...

Bomb your veg room, then do it again in a week. Dolimite lime won't do anything to get rid of bugs.

It would all depend on your tap water. Is it fairly clean or is it undrinkable? I've heard some here that have tap water that I wouldn't even bathe in. Check the PPM of your tap water. If its below 200ppm, it might be ok and if its slightly above 200ppm, GH makes a hard water nute additive.

It could be the strain. What type of strain is it and where did you get it from? There is a black velvet strain that grows really dark.

What kind of PH tester did you get? Did it come with a calibration solution? If not, you could get some from the hydro store and some storage solution. I found the most accurate digital ph testers have at least 2 calibration points, and never let tester dry up. I am not sure what that distilled...

So what would answer this question or better help all to understand is; do the roots stop growing once a plant goes into flowering or past the stretch phase? So if a plant is healthy and the roots are healthy up until after the stretch phase, there should never be a reason to repot since the...

If its that hot in there then you might try getting a portable air conditioner. They range anywhere from 200 - 400 bucks and will cool that room now nicely. Here's one at Walmart for $330. But they're fairly cheap anywhere. Will pay for itself in your first crop with better buds...

You don't know if its MH or HPS? The bulbs look different and is easy to tell the difference. Just do a search or look at some online hydro stores under lighting. As for your flowering nutes, what are you using? There are a lot of flowering additives to enhance bud production, to bulk up buds...

soft white for flowering daylight for vegging

Throw it into the shower, right away. Spider mites hate water and if you catch it early enough it might help. Spray it good and do it again in about a week. Chemicals work too or get some lady bugs which love to eat up the spider mites. Either way, they're a battle if you leave it too long. Do...

Droopy could be caused by under/overwatering however it could also be that you dont have enough light. When your flowering, its best to have a lot more light than when you are vegging. Try adding a couple more cfls or higher wattage cfls. Do you have any pictures?

Well you could put a false wall into the bedroom with some small crawl through door which is blocked by some furniture or boxes. Build this before they come to see your new house. Then when they come over to see it, that bedroom will just be a smaller and look more like a den or small office...

Its ok for light to escape when the lights are on, if it’s not to somewhere where it’s going to raise suspicion to your grow. What do you mean the PH dropped to 5? Do you mean the soil? If your soil mix was good to start with, it should be ok. Soil PH meters are incredibly...

Used HID shades on craigslist can be had for 20 bucks. You could probably rig it up for all your cfl's by drilling a few holes.

If you can get some clear poly, it would be better than saran wrap however it will work. If you can build a little homemade greenhouse till they're a little bigger and healthier, it would be the thing to do. Although, I don't see how you're going to hide a little greenhouse from your parents. I...

I use a billage pump off a small boat. It doesn't give me the pressure or the flow rates of a reg. garden hose however it works great and it comes out slow enough for me to take my time watering the plants. I think I got 3/8th inch clear hose on it.

Now this thread is entertaining......LOL! All I got to say is that I read others preaching the gospel about growing and how it should not be done for whatever reason and how disrespectful it is, etc, etc, etc...However, those same people are probably the ones who are giving every grower a bad...

You need some lighting, some soil, a pot, somewhere inconspicuous, some fertilizer and the most important thing...some seeds or cuttings. If you are using seeds and they are not feminized, then pray you get a female. Sounds like you have a lot of reading to do before you start. This place is a...

Depends on your tap water. However, it is always safe to go with distilled water. Rainwater works well too, usually.

I do not know where you are so do not know the weather there but if it is not too cold, plant them outside and put some sort of a cover over them right away. At there size, the outdoors can easily kill them so I would put four stakes down and hang some clear plastic over them or like someone...
