If you plants are still light green to yellowish, try adding 5ml/gal cal-mag, that's my baseline for growing in coco

You would think so, but I think we need to do the same 2 cup test on coco. I have a feeling it's going to hold more than the growstones. We add perlite to coco for drainage and to retain more air. That's why I use the mixed coco with the chunks in it, so it holds more air and its ability hold...

So I ran the perlite water retention experiment. 2 cups of coarse recycled perlite. Added 2 cups water. Now the perlite is at a disadvantage in the test because it floats, so I had to hold it down for the soak, I drained off just short of 1 1/2 cups. So the perlite retained a half cup, which...

I've got coarse perlite 'bout the same size, I'll run the same experiment sometime this wk.

By spun glass I was talking about the growstones, I believe they are made of recycled glass. All the best.

I've got a bag of the Gro dans Grow Cubes it's rockwool and I'll try it out after my Dec vacation. I hope you do a journal I'm interested in how the spun glass works. As far as seed choice, from what I've read and what little I've tried, indica strains do better in mainlining. I looked at the...

I wouldn't kill it yet. I've seen super sized round calyx that have made me think male before but weren't. And if it is balls you have at least 10 more days before even the fastest of males would produce pollen. So just wait and watch, if the balls elongate to look like footballs or bananas then...

Here's the outdoor Afghan Kush photos taken late evening the flash kicked in a couple of time. Still covering every night but will end tonight. Right now I'm at 13/11 sunrise to sunset, but an hr in the morning and 2 in the evening are very dim. She's been getting regular gentle rains and seems...

If it could only be from seed or a cutting of a known female, then lets hope it's the seed and you have a real male, and then I'd go hog wild with the pollen and make seeds to play with more. I've grown out seeds that came from a hermie pollination a few times. They are fem seeds so you don't...

Your plant looks like a male. In my experience I've never seen a plant hermi until it has shown some real flowers. The earliest Ive found a hermi is at the end of wk 2 the latest was around wk 10 on a sativa dom. I have seen sativa males start with light over 12 hrs, but is unusual. If want you...

Not really the right thread for this question, but short answer is Yes, they just take different lengths of time to finish.

The only real way to determine the end of flower is under magnification checking the trichome phase. If a true sativa landrace or near landrace trich's at 2wks to go will be almost all cloudy, if one of the many hybrids that are sativa dom then they will finish in the 8 to 10w period and the...

This is my 4th summer growing on my deck in a sub-division. I live in a valley at 6100 ft just 20 miles west of the divide. Wasn't going to do a deck grow this yr but......... I had 5 girls indoors for the upcoming grow and I don't like to do more than 4 in the small space I have indoors, so I...

Generally wk 3 is prime time for plant sex, but if there are long white hairs on your bud then there's a chance of pollination. Pull any bananas you see and drop them in a cup of water rinse your fingers and keep going.

I'd have to agree they don't seem to show any reduced growth at 75% of the normal hrs. I just don't know if I have the balls to go to 50% the norm right yet. Maybe next summer when I'm fighting heat again I'll give 6 a try.

Day 36 Amnesia on left and Afghan Kush Special (supposed to be sativa dom) on the right. Action below the canopy

Budder, they all look really good, especially the C-99 clones (but you know I love to see OC in a bucket). I've never done well with the autos but most of that was my fault. Yours look great, please give us another update prior to harvest.

I've tried the glr but it didn't work in my setup because my veg is powered by 4 T8 bulbs 128w total for 6sf, even at 18/6 my veg is slow. Now I always start flower at less than 12/12 usually 11/13 mainly because I grow mostly sativa dom strains. After following your thread I dropped my light on...

This is from a grow a few yrs back. A friend gifted me around 50 seeds he collected from cleaning bowls of many Hawaiian growers. Well there was supposed to be some pure Thia, I grew a couple (a boy and a girl) but never finished them (yes I should be kicked in the groin) Photo day 56 of 12/12...

A hermie can produce a butt load of seeds on the hermie plant and anything else within arms reach. My personal worst hermie was in the 20+ seeds to get enough weed to roll a joint.
