    Flip the plant then Flip the lights

    Wouldn't all those lower bud sites still be popcorn if you veg them normally and only put them horizontal when you start flowering? I would think it would be more beneficial to tie the stem down horizontally when they're still young, soft and bendable, which would give all those lower sites more...

    growing weed is relaxing

    That's awesome. All you're missing is the bookshelf that turns around when you pull the secret book.

    growing weed is relaxing

    First, let me start by saying kudos to you, sir. Being able to hide something like this from a wife and 17 year old son in a small house tells me that you are either some kind of diabolical genius, or you have access to the flashy memory erasing thingy from Men In Black. Either way, I bow down...

    Probably too early to tell but.....

    Seems a bit early to tell, so I can't help you there. Out of curiosity though, what was causing the leaf problem that you fixed? I'm trying to learn more about diagnosing problems for myself. That's why I ask.

    Who makes the best grow tent

    I spent lots of money on a Secret Jardin Darkroom, thinking that more expensive meant better quality. I was wrong. It's a piece of shit with light leaks absolutely everywhere. The lesson I learned here is that more expensive does not necessarily mean better quality. I really couldn't say who...

    How big is too big?

    I have a 600w HID in a 5x5 tent right now, and I definitely feel like I need more light. I'm actually also using a 4 foot, 4 bulb T5 as supplemental side lighting while I finish up flowering this run, but I think I'll invest in another 600w ballast and bulb and add that to my Adjust-A-Wing...

    How big is too big?

    Why can't you run your light on full power? From what I've read, 1000w light is good for a 5x5 room. If you're running at 500w, you'd probably be better off with 4x4. A 9x8.5 room is too big for the light you're using.

    tried and true setup with consistency

    As for consistency, it's going to depend what you do with your plants and how you treat them. Someone like me who still has a lot to learn isn't going to get anywhere near what an experienced grower would get with the same setup.

    tried and true setup with consistency

    A 400w in a 3x3 tent sounds like a good start. You'll also need to consider a good extraction fan, and I would definitely have at least one small fan blowing air over the canopy. Personally, I wouldn't use an HPS for veg. I use T5's from sprout, then when they outgrow the T5's I switch to my...

    water running straight through pot

    This is what I have started doing when that happens. Water once, wait a few minutes and water again. The soil absorbs it much better the second time.

    Is this powdery mildew or just frosty weed?

    I'm definitely going to listen to your advice and do routine sprays on my next run. Especially now that I've seen first hand how much of a pain in the ass powdery mildew can be. I feel like my next attempt will be much more successful than this one, but I'm still happy with my first try at...

    Is this powdery mildew or just frosty weed?

    GreenCure is potassium bicarbonate. I gave them a good spray last night, so I'm hoping that will keep it under control until they're finished. I've used milk a few times and it's kept it away for a week or two at a time, but I wanted to try the GreenCure this time. Now I'm looking forward to...

    Is this powdery mildew or just frosty weed?

    I actually haven't been feeding heavily at all. I've fed well below the suggested amount, and the temperature stays around 23c with the lights on. They've been flowering almost eight and a half weeks, so whatever the issue is, I'm hoping they can ride it out just a little longer.

    Is this powdery mildew or just frosty weed?

    Goddamn PM. That shit is relentless. Looks like they'll be getting douched tonight. Thanks.

    Is this powdery mildew or just frosty weed?

    The title pretty much says it all. I think these are probably about two weeks or so from being done, but I'm not sure if this white stuff is PM or just crystal. I've had PM problems throughout the grow, but it's mostly been on the big fan leaves. This is only showing up on the little sugar...

    Yield Thread

    Some nice pictures here. I understand that different strains and phenos will have different densities and whatnot, but I find it interesting seeing these differences, and to see, for example, what a one ounce plant of one strain looks like compared to a one ounce plant of a different strain. And...

    Well it certainly looks like your work is paying off. They're beautiful.

    Yield Thread

    It seems like there are always people on here posting threads to ask how much their plants will yield. This got me thinking, wouldn't it be nice if there was a thread where people could post pictures of their own plants which have yielded 1oz, 2oz, 3oz, etc. This could be used as a reference for...
