    topping above 4rth node

    I would wait at least a week to remove any lower growth, as a rule of thumb never remove more than 1/3 of the plant in one shot or you may stress it out too much. If your growing from seed it's best to let the plant mature a little bit before you send them into flower, if height isn't an issue...

    new grower

    How long a plant takes depends on many factors, not how long it took other people to grow. Get yourself a 30-100x scope and research about proper harvest time- it all come down to the trichs, clear, cloudy, and amber. Pistils have nothing to do with it. You want mostly cloudy with some amber...

    can all mites be treated the same?

    I thought I had broad mites once for a long time, but never found any evidence other than those exact 'dots' you photographed. Turns out the problems with my leaves being splotchy and weird looking (some of them with a mosaic pattern that kinda looks like broad mite damage or TMV on goggle-even...

    can all mites be treated the same?

    Did anyone actually look at the op's pictures, lol? I don't think you even have mites. Take regualr pictures of the leaves. Spider mites create tiny dots all over them, when your talking about using harsh pesticides better make sure you actually have pests first.

    can all mites be treated the same?

    Those aren't eggs. They are resin. When I was a newer grower I had similar symptoms and saw the same thing and thought I must have broad mites or something. Spider mites will be clearly visible, usually even without a scope.

    RO System

    I agree, I wouldn't go smaller than 100 no matter what, 6hrs to fill 25 gals is a long time for a little bit of water. I find having a storage tank somewhere to be crucial. There's nothing worse than not having RO ready when you need it, and when your running veg and flower, even a small...

    RO System

    Good luck actually acheiving 1:1, in my experience even the nice units waste alot of water. It usually comes blasting out of the waste end and barely pouring out of the filtered end, no mater what unit you buy.

    topping above 4rth node

    You wouldn't have anything under the 4th node. I wouldn't top above the fourth node AND remove everything underneath at the same time, top and let your plant heal before you consider removing the lower growth.

    should i lolly pop?

    And the stuff on the bottom of that is kinda larfy, I wouldn't want anything lower. I never ran the strain before, I wished I flipped them earlier, but I would of done the same thing-I almost ran out of vertical height this round.

    should i lolly pop?

    I LST and lollipop sorta. I remove alot of the lower growth, but I'm yielding pretty good in a 4x4 tent with a 600w hps. I'm not saying it's good or bad, but it's what I do.

    I'm so close to harvest! I'm running a cheap 600hps and T5 fixture for supplemental blue light(and because I had it layign around, why not? :) ) I love 600s

    my 1st hermie. am i right?

    A female that throws nanners is not a hermie, it's just a female trying to survive by self pollination. A hermie has both male and female genes and will show itself during the first couple weeks of 12/12 by thowing pollen sacs and pistils everywhere.

    When to flush?

    So I'm in coco and running strains I haven't run before-so I don't know exactly when they will be finished. I started started giving my plants just water when most of my trichs are couldy. I give them water and molassas(or a sweetener) for the first week, then I actually run a decent amount of...

    When to flush?

    LOL. Ok, so all those growers and breeders who are winning cannabis cubs don't know what they are doing? It depends on your medium and growing style. To say good growers don't flush is just non-sense. If your using chem fertz in a hydroponic medium, a flush is a very wise thing to do. Try...

    Think I may have made a mistake :(

    Surely this was joke, lol. Of course you should read your plants, but not having a meter makes it near impossible to diagnose, or better yet CATCH a problem before it start. If your not monitoring your run-off occasionally a problem can catch you off gaurd. If you have a problem you can't...
