    Is my blue dream done ?

    I would let that ride for a little longer. Looks like the leaves are still pretty green (on that branch) and you got some new pistil growth going on. Definitely close though.

    Actually, I need to make a correction. I was using a 10-9-9-9 (on previous plants)...but I switched it up a bit. For this plant, I started with just bone meal that's 6%(N)-9%(P2O5)-7%(Ca)...then around the 2nd week I added a 3%(N)-4%(P2O5)-2%(K2O)-2%(Ca) all purpose. Tough to keep track cause...

    Since it's an all purpose, they add it for the flowering stage. Calcium is supposed to help with flower production.

    It's the percentage of Nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, and calcium in the fertilizer.

    Organic, efficient, AWESEOME bug repellent.

    I can't say, sorry...for what it's worth squirrels leave my stuff alone for the most part..but some plants do get snagged when they first sprout. I know there's other rodents like mice out there and I don't usually have too many issues so...maybe? What mammals are you dealing with?

    Organic, efficient, AWESEOME bug repellent.

    I use palmolive pure and clear. No dies, fragrances, hypoallergenic, etc..even if there's still some residual stuff...it rinses off easily and a half teaspoon in 32 oz of water barely makes bubbles. You could probably leave the dishsoap out if you didn't want to use it. I'm pretty sure it's...

    Organic, efficient, AWESEOME bug repellent.

    Hey RIU! Just want to share an easy to make, very efficient bug repellent recipe. I use this on all my plants and it works for everything except caterpillars. I only seem to need to use it until flower. I apply about once a week. The plant does not have to be doused. Just a light, even...

    Outdoor/Organic

    Hey guys =) I went full outdoor for this one. Started her off with some bone meal for the roots and because I get REALLY good drainage, I feed her a high (10-9-9-9) time release, all purpose organic fert (besides my own compost). I started feeding her around the second week. I gave her a...

    Low Stress Training (LST) Guide

    Great thread. I am definitely going to LST on my next grow. Those huge canopies with multiple colas look so amazing.

    Does the color of these trychs tell me anything?

    Looks like you got some deficiencies which will also slow you up. Stems look very purple which is low nitrogen. Potassium, calcium and magnesium are important for root/bud growth in flower. There's an awesome article on the RIU forum about deficiencies with pics. It's in :Marijuana...

    Need help/suggestions!!!!!

    I did a cfl. 300 watts in a 2x2 room I built. 2 bulbs with hoods on top, 1 on the side. Small fan for circulation/stem strength. I don't have to stealth so fresh air/humidity/temp no problem. My house stays around 70, humidity is at 45-50% and I always open a window to keep fresh air coming...

    Need help/suggestions!!!!!

    No light. Keep it in the dark. You can try to push the seed down in 30 minutes if it's still floating....if it doesnt go down, don't worry...push it down when you check it tomorrow.

    still having trouble please help

    Yeah I would check OW and reduce nutes like Wakin said. That first 2 pics screams OW to me with the swollen curled leaves but, I am a soil guy, so I may be a bit biased =) When I researched hydro cause I thought about doing it, it seemed like most started with 1/4 to 1/2 nute recommendations.
