Already got one. Didn't make enough difference and that's why 2 comforters (bought one and used a spare from the house), 2 towels and a roll of cling film were necessary to bring the noise down to anywhere near an acceptable level (ie, no more than the noise produced by the oscillating desk fan...

WRT buying all in one kits..... I was all up for getting one of the "all in one grow kits" because of the seemingly massive savings as opposed to buying separates and the convenience of knowing I have everything I need. The truth of the matter is that a lot of the kit is the absolute lowest...

Excuse my noob question but I'm seeking to better understand the behavior of hermied plants.... Your one plant that hermied, did that then pollinate and take to seed the other, non hermied plants? So you have seeded bud on all? I assume you plucked as many male parts from the hermie as possible.

PS Yeah I figured it couldn't hurt to take away some low, sorry looking growth yesterday when I took a couple of clones. For these clones I picked leaves that were healthy looking but blocking new growth from getting light. I then proceeded to pluck off some leaves from low on the plant that...

Thanks. By this do you mean that by the branch being tied down, auxins flow down into that branch making it grow bigger?

How did these turn out?

I had always understood it like this: leaves photosynthesise and make energy for more growth, which gives more leaves, which gives more growth etc I also am very wary of trimming and stressing my plant in any way, shape or form as it is my first grow and they are fem seeds, so the risk of...

Bit late for mainlining now really, they are well established post-topping and I aint screwing around defoliating and stripping back one month into the grow.

Thanks, this is useful info, and explains why I didn't find the guides I was hoping for! I suppose this "belt and braces" approach will give me plenty of veg time which is useful as I have two autos growing alongside my vegging girls. I imagine it will also help the LST'd shoots get more...

Hiya guys and girls I have topped my plants twice and have multiple healthy main shoots growing out from the stem now so I thought it would be a good time to start training them. Most of the guides I have read talk about tying down the main stem, and don't seem to take into account topping and...

update a week later, I think / hope the problem has gone away thanks to the pyrethrin. The cal mag overdosed my plants even at low concentration so I have removed that from the equation, and am just feeding now: canna a&b canna rhizotonic cannazyme They are now monster bushes.

That is the news I wanted to hear. Thanks heaps!

Is anybody able to confirm or deny this point, if possible with references please? I am growing from seed currently but wanting to clone for future grows. Is there a sensible limit on how many times to clone if indeed this problem exists? The only word I have heard on this subject is...

Sorry yes, I meant to link back to the thread I started when the problem first appeared. The plants are twice that size now :D http://rollitup.org/t/holes-in-leaves-and-i-need-to-go-on-vacation-for-the-weekend.829038/

Yep that's also on the cards, well everything apart from the screen (I'm really bad at carpentry etc and would probably fall on my plants setting it up or something). Lots of LST, supercropping etc. Thing is, even with all training in the world, I can't keep them going as long as the autos need...

Thanks heaps folks, lots of really useful information and tips there, I appreciate it. Nope, that's half the problem! However, the holes appeared so quickly and so many on multiple strains with no environmental or feed changes that I can't really see any other reason than a pest. I sprayed...

It's a real shame but unfortunately due to the way my house is built, and those around it, there is no way I can put a plant outside - or even indoors in direct sunlight - without it attracting a lot of attention. Let's hope so! As you say only time will tell, but for now they are thriving so...

Yep, they had a stressful first couple of weeks but now are coming along grand. They have only been transplanted once to minmise stress, and the two toppings they have had are the only toppings they will get. Now I am doing the odd bit of supercropping to toughen em up and get the branches in...

That's half the problem, I have no idea what the pest was. I opened up one day to water them and there were holes all over the plants! Sprayed with pyrethrin and no new holes have appeared since. Weekly pyrethrin spraying it is. Not too much of a chore at the moment but as they get bigger it...

Yep I will be investing in a trich scope no worries there. I hope to god none of my fems hermie. Especially the biggest super lemon haze I have, it's a monster plant, responding excellent to topping and now has what will become eight main colas :D However I am prepared for the worst, that's...
