    how can i tell if my plant is male early in grow

    You can try to tell with pre-flowers, but I'm still not even close to 100% and I've been growing for 5 years. The males do show up quickly once you flip. When I want seeds, I pop 4 seeds (good odds for at least one male) and bring them along with my clones. By 2nd week of flower, you know the...

    Replacing 5 Year Old Blackstars

    I"m currently running two 240W LighthouseHydro BlackStars along with two A51 2014 XGS-190s. I noticed today that half of the lights on one of my BSs are out. I may be able to fix (I have a 3rd one that died awhile back for spare parts), but these are getting old (5+ years now), and I want to...

    Coco Growers Unite!

    Before I used organic nutes with coco (no PHing with organic either), I knew that my RO water would have the right PH after adding the nutes. So I never PH'd either and the plants grew fine.

    need help from someone with HVAC and ducting knowledge

    I'm using the AC system of my house to keep my room cooled/heated also. Do not connect anything to a return duct or you will be sucking air OUT of the room and blowing it into the rest of house unfiltered. I did this and it took me awhile to figure it out. I ended up running a a tube (my...

    Bumped timer 3 days interruption 4 weeks into flower.

    I've never had my light come on for only 15 minutes every night. Do you know how long that's been happening? I've left a light on all night a couple of times during flower and saw no (noticeable) negative impact.

    Area 51

    I just put my new XGS 190 over my seeds today. The build quality on this light is really impressive. The fit and finish is very nice and the light looks very durable. I haven't grown anything with it yet but I have high hopes for this light just based on the design and quality. If this light...

    The Dawgs 1lb Grow Under 300 Watts Of Led

    I used to use little twisty ties to hang for drying. What I do now that I really like much better is just leave a side branch cut short as your little hook. Try it out sometime, it really saves time. You can even use a side-nugget as the hook.

    Show me your AREA 51 nugs!

    I just mentioned it on another thread, but I'm not sure what the communication difficulties are. The first time I went to the website, I signed up for an account and got an email immediately. After I verified the URL here (because I somehow missed it in the sticky), I placed the order. I...

    My A51 190 is going to arrive on Tuesday according to USPS tracking. So A51 is responding just fine to orders.

    Thinking of buying a second LED

    I just ordered an a51 a few days ago. I own 3 Blackstar 240s (that really pull 135). Two have failed and one three times. I was able to repair them myself the first time but one light is just toast now. They are less than two years old. That being said, I really like the design changes...

    yellowing fans/ red stems not entire sure cuz I thought I gave enough food

    I think you have issues. The purple leaves you mention look OK but it seems a little early to be seeing that. The bright yellow leaves aren't age/flower related -- they are due to some problem. I've never had that in flower (except when I had root rot issues in my first two feeble DWC grows)...

    Area 51

    I registered 3 or 4 days ago and got an immediate email. I then ordered a day later and got an email confirming that as well.

    Plant shows two different things?

    How long are you going to flower? If you're going 8 weeks, I wouldn't worry too much but if you need to go 10 or 12 I wouldn't be happy with that many yellow leaves. I usually go half veg half flower nute-wise for the first few weeks of flower to avoid N deficiency. I always get a little tip...

    yellowing fans/ red stems not entire sure cuz I thought I gave enough food

    I agree losing leaves in flower is normal but in picture 5, I have to say the plants look sick, not tired. How far into flower are you? If you're not a week or two away from harvest I don't think pic 5 is of a healthy plant.

    Yellowing + dying off tried everything

    This could be part of your problem, although 180 isn't bad. We have shit water here and I had problems until I went to RO. Have you checked the PH of your run-off?

    Yellowing + dying off tried everything

    The few times I used a peat moss based soil mix on my mothers, it was a real PITA. I'm not sure why anyone uses peat over coco these days.
