    light schedule ??

    there are a few stages of marijuana growth....first you have to germinate the seed, once the seed has been germinated, it is planted and once it comes out of the ground it is now in vegetative growth stage...during this stage, the plant is only focused on its foliar growth and becoming mature so...

    light schedule ??

    I have heard something about turning the lights off for 2-3 days before going into flowering, but I have been nervous to do it for fear of producing a hermie. If you say you have success with it then I would love to give it a try. Anything for a bigger yield..... Anyone else with experience on...

    bud handling??

    ya those hippies may have been right, cause now that i think about it, the trichomes are produced naturally as a defense mechanism for the plant, so whenever the plant senses something is threatening it, it will produce more trichomes to help defend against whatever is attacking it....some...
