The key with watering in soil is to make sure the entire soil area receives moisture. When a plant hasn't been watered for a few days, the soil can get dry, causing the pooling and draining-down-the-sides problem you've described. The best way to deal with it is to water slowly. I like to use...

The fact that it is already composted is a bonus as that makes it ready to use, though I don't know if it removes any pathogens. I wouldn't worry about it too much though...you should be getting a fine soil amendment. Are you planning on making a tea out of it or incorporating it directly into...

Well, I took a bunch of pics on the 6th, which was now 5 days ago. I went out of town for the weekend and didn't want to upload pics over a public network. No need to be foolish right? So I had to wait a few days. All these pics are from the evening of the 1/6/10. I'll take a new set soon...

I'm going with "Not Marijuana." Though it could be coated with some "spray" as ShrigPiece suggested. Just doesn't look like cannabis...

Never had any of your problems. I love the 'tude and will continue to advise others to frequent their (online) establishment. Maybe you shouldn't blame germination rates on a seedbank...:bigjoint:

40 is a bit low, and could very well be slowing your plant down. Try to keep it at least above 50. Where are you checking the trichomes on your plant? Try checking in different spots and see how the color compares. What percentage of pistils (hairs) would you estimate have turned orange...

The only real thing you have to be mindful of when considering manures are the potential pathogens present in the fecal matter. Most any kind of manure will be beneficial...cow, chicken, rabbit, bat, seabird...but some have harmful pathogens that are unhealthy for the plant or for humans to...

Well, I harvested both smaller blue cheeses a few days ago...they've already made it to jars. Another of the larger BC was harvested last evening. They had some pretty nice swollen calyxes at the time of chopping. I've got pics of everything, but no time to upload them. I'll try to get...

I like the disguise your tent as a place to hang clothes idea, but again, if you aren't filtering I'd be worried about them smelling it. They'll be in and out for 3 days... Can you get a lock for your door? A padlock or deadbolt or something you can lock from the outside? Telling someone not...

I thought about that after I posted... Still, they waste lots of gas.

Love that video! The shot of all the hanging buds really gave some good perspective on just how much bud you've got there. And little popcorn nugs everywhere! Hope you've got a healthy stock of jars lying around!

Paranoia is a good thing, it keeps you aware of your surroundings and makes you think of all possible (negative) outcomes. Really though, the percentage of police districts with the time/resources/desire to stake out LEGAL stores has to be pretty small. Are you really interested in paying...

Are the regular plants in flower or veg? 3 days isn't the end of the world for the plants. I don't know about asphyxiating them with a plastic bag though. I'd be more concerned about the smell...

I just received a small coffee-table book entitled "100 things you're not supposed to know" and one of them is that Carl Sagan was an avid marijuana-smoker! Awesome...

I use a 6" 250cfm from home depot to vent my 400w air-cooled hood and it works great.

They look good skeet. Might I offer another suggestion... I agree that using clear cups are a good call, as you can really gauge root formation. It's even better for use when rooting clones. Yours, however, are a bit too short, and I'll give you 2 reasons why. 1) You can deal with...

Thanks for the updates laser...everything sounds like its going well. Looking forward to your hydro vs. soil side by side deal too. It seems like you're so torn with what to do regarding sexing and cloning and overgrowing and 12/12...I know the feeling! Like you said, it's a tough thing to...

Fresh seeds don't need any soaking or paper towel. Keep them 1/4 inch under the soil surface. 1/4inch is VERY shallow, so the seed should barely be covered by soil, but covered completely. Older seeds may benefit from a pre-germination soak in water. But never use a paper towel. You don't...

Nice looking grow here cap. i've seen some really great things with that canna coco...been thinking about giving it a whirl myself. I got some cheese my friend the other day...top notch smoke for sure! I like the Blue Cheese a bit more myself, but both are awesome!

Thanks war. I don't hate the Eagles. We tied last year. The LSD is smelling, well, fantastic. I'm really quite excited for it. I can't describe the smell at the moment, but I'll give a report once she comes down. The Blue Cheeses should all be ready for the chop in the next week, with PPP...
