    Ugh! If this is what I think it is...

    Yup, I'm not really down with picking balls off everyday for the next 5 1/2 - 6 weeks or else. Shit, the reason I got an HPS was so I didn't have to move CFLs every 36 hrs. No reason to make it more work than it should be. I just wish I had a different place to put it. Even if for no other...

    Ugh! If this is what I think it is...

    After doing some more studying today, I'm 90% certain that snow white is hermie. I wonder if the plant is less than 5% herm (very few flower sites showing male bits), if it is feasible to continue plucking and praying. My eyes aren't as good as they once were. This is really disappointing...

    Ugh! If this is what I think it is...

    Thanks MJD. Stangest thing happened. When I was pulling the plant out last night to pluck those balls and examine for more balls; I couldn't find too many of 'em. I tied a string around one of the branches that had them. There were pistillate flowers emerging from the apparent male...

    Poppinsmokey's first grow - CFL's

    This was a closet grow. Appx 2 x 4 area w/ black white poly all around. I probably could have done another 2 plants with the same lights and minor modifications to light setup. There is quite a few things I'd do differently given the same light and space. I would top/fim, remove lower third...

    Ugh! If this is what I think it is...

    I'm hitting the sack for the night. I'll check back here tomorrow at lunch. Sure look like male bits to me. It's a damn shame b/c the plant is nice with some great female flowers. I've got limited space, otherwise I'd flower it by itself in a different area. Oh well, 4/5 isn't bad. Now...

    Ugh! If this is what I think it is...

    Pretty sure this snow white is a hermie. I'd be interested to know. I will say my buddy that grew this strain of this batch of seeds grew two plants that I thought looked hermie early on. He grew in much less optimal conditions than I have. However, they both finished nicely and without seeds...

    Gathering HPS data/Calling all Hps owners

    Started my 600 at 24", no burning and temps were managable w/ just oscillating fan. Moved light to 16" - 18" and radiant heat burned one plant with minor heat stress on others. My 4' x 2' x 7' area w/ unvented reflector is optimal at 20 - 22" average above canopy. I usually start it at 22"...

    Expierance with buying 100% feminized seeds

    Personal experience: 5 fem Snow White & 5 fem Pure Power Plant (both Nirvana). 9/10 germed, all females, no hermies. I'm sure others have their own experiences, but this if my successful albeit limited experience.

    Allow slight burns from CFLs?

    As long as it's just a fan leaf or three, it is fine. Once in flower, don't burn the bud. Burning bud is bad, umkay; unless it's in a bowl or a J umkay. After my first grow w/ CFLs, I taught a buddy how to grow w/ them. He burned the shit out of them (fan leafs) multiple times. Just...

    1000watt same as 4 250watt?

    It really depends on your conditions. I just got a 600W HPS (uncooled reflector in a CLOSET). I had 5 plants under it that were vegged for 2 weeks under flouros. I started the HPS at 30" above my girls. The temps actually went down from where they were at w/ CFLs. So I got ballsy, and...

    How many girls can you cram?

    I don't have the expertise neccessary to accurately answer your question. However, I can show you what 5 plants (from SEED) look like in soil with approximately 21 days of veg time before switching to 12/12. If I'm not mistaken (and I may be), most SOGers do not veg clones this long. The...

    Drug Test help. Detox & Certo? (Long Post)

    Unfortunately, this is a topic with which I have much experience. There have been times in my life where I had to call a phone number every morning. They would give me a color name. If that color was "yellow", I had to present for UA DT within 2 hours. The following was my protocol which I...

    growing with cfls

    I'm going to say 4 23W CFL's will not be adequate for long, if at all. If I'm starting plants, I use 1 42W per seedling. If you plan to do CFLs throughout, you will be needing more than 92 watts for 8 plants. Good luck w/ your grow.

    Seeds on a plane.Advice.

    I'd get a bottle of pills, (Vit C, B-Complex) that come in capsule form. Put desired number of seeds in neccessary number of capsules, mark accordingly. Mix seeded capsules w/ regular capsules in original bottle. Travel safely!:blsmoke:

    Feminized seeds or regular?

    I'm only on my 2nd grow. I've helped friends on their first grows. All have used fem seeds. Out of 30 seeds purchased: 29 germed, 29 Females. Got about 1 seed per 40 grams of dried fem PPP. Although this could have just been a last ditch effort by the plant to reproduce. No male flowers were...

    HELP: Marijuana and Medical Doctors in non-medical states

    M41A, the information I have found thus far indicates that cannabinoids work in the brain and CNS to reduce perception of pain; thus reducing the amount of opiates neccessary for relief. I know this is the case for my pain, nausea, and sweats that accompany my pain. Some studies suggest to...
