    Opinions please - Ready or not?

    One looks really close as far as trichomes go. Pretty much all white with just the odd clear one here and there. The other two have more clear and look slightly less ready. I might end up chopping the one and leaving the other two to ripen up a little more. Going to be keeping a close eye on them.

    Opinions please - Ready or not?

    I think that an experienced grower can guage readiness by the overall look of a plant, as opposed to only looking at trichomes. I'm not an experienced grower, which is why I asked for more opinions. I'm looking at trichomes but figured more experienced eyes looking at the plants might see...

    Opinions please - Ready or not?

    True. But if it can get even better by waiting another week, I can be patient.

    Opinions please - Ready or not?

    I have a microscope, which is how I check trichomes, and is why I've decided to wait another week.

    Is this PM? :(

    I used a milk and water mix on the PM I've had with my current grow. It worked to keep it away for a week or two at a time, but it always came back, even with RH in the 30's. I also bought some GreenCure, which is an organic fungicide made mostly of potassium bicarbonate. It's supposed to be...

    Opinions please - Ready or not?

    Yeah, that heat on the outer edges really took me by surprise. I figured I'd be okay with the tallest branches furthest away from the bulb, but I was very wrong about that. I've raised the light a bit and everything seems good now. I sat down in the tent and spent some time having a good, long...

    Strange question about flowering times outdoors

    If it says 8 weeks from seed to finish, I would assume it's an autoflowering strain. Unless you meant 8 week flowering time, in which case it could be a regular photoperiod plant that isn't getting the darkness that it needs to flower properly. But if it is an auto, you shouldn't need 12 hours...

    Opinions please - Ready or not?

    Yep, they're burnt alright. I'll have to take better pictures when the light comes back on.

    Opinions please - Ready or not?

    This is my first 'is it ready' post. I wasn't going to ask, but I've started second guessing myself. This weekend will be 10 weeks that these have been flowering. I was planning on chopping this weekend, but I don't want to make the mistake of doing it too early. Trichomes are mostly cloudy, but...

    need some help on this one.

    I noticed the same thing with my outdoor. Droopy and sad looking at the end of the day, perky and happy when the sun comes back up.

    3 week old strawberry blue, How does she look?

    To the untrained eye it might look like those yellow, dying leaves could indicate something like a nitrogen deficiency. Not so. The simple truth is that there are way too many leaves and it's attempting to defoliate itself. The plant wants what the plant wants.

    3 week old strawberry blue, How does she look?

    I can see your techniques are paying off, big time. Those buds are really packing on the weight. One word....DENSE. Nice work.

    She's breathtaking.

    How should I store my seeds?

    Hahaha well I actually bought them from Amazon strictly for seed storage. It's been many moons since I used a film container for film.

    How should I store my seeds?

    I've had some in the fridge for months. They're inside film containers with silica packs, and those film containers are inside another black tupperware container. After months of being stored this way, I put eight of them in wet paper towel just the other day and 100% of them popped within 24 hours.

    4.20 approches whats your plan?

    I think I might try smoking some of this 'marijuana' I've been hearing so much about. I hope I don't O.D.

    Indoor and outdoor grow. Where to put the "good" seeds?

    If it were me, I would probably do the autos outside. Unless you know that the other strain you're growing can finish flowering before the cold, rainy weather comes, you run the risk of either having to chop early, or losing it to mold. I guess it also really depends where you live, but I've...

    Radiant heat and ambient temperature

    Makes sense. I guess until I see a reason to believe they're not happy with their situation, I'll just leave well enough alone. I messed up my last run of seedlings and stunted them pretty badly, so I'm just being extra cautious this time. Thanks for the input.

    Radiant heat and ambient temperature

    Hi guys. So I just popped some new beans and I've got a question about temperature. I've got these babies in a closet under a 4 foot 4 bulb T5. It's definitely a bit warmer than I want it to be, but I'm thinking (hoping) it's not too excessive. My question is this. How much radiant heat...

    Outgrowing space

    When those buds start getting bigger and more dense, I would definitely be concerned about mold if you have branches pressed up against the walls. Hopefully it's done the majority of its stretching.
