Cheers for that. They're not noticeably yellow and don't appear to have stretched. I think it sounds like you were unlucky. Although, I'd have thought mine would be in a worse state so think I was a bit lucky. I actually run 2 small setups and the other was turned on properly so not a complete...

Hi. I've got an automated setup for when I go away, but I basically turned it off instead of turning on They were about a month into what should probably be about a 2 month flowering. I gave them about 4 hours extra light the first day I got home then back to 12/12. I guess it's better that they...

Thanks for the comments. Can I get any links for further research? I have a background in electronic engineering so I don't expect any trouble understanding what I read, my main stumbling point at the moment is literally not knowing what is available out there. I did look at single LEDs and...

Bummer. First bit of research says 18 inches away. I don't have that distance. Why not use less power and put them closer?

I grow a in big metal can with cfls and thought the metal side walls would make good heat sinks for mounting some LEDs for some more light, but I know very little about what's out there. Any links or things to google for would be appreciated

Hi. It's a simple question. I've been growing for about a year now, got a few harvests under my belt. Fairly pleased with my yield increases as I've learnt what I'm doing. Recently only been growing clones and on average they've been yielding less than the parents that were grown from seed. What...

Thanks. So do pollenated plants stay quite thin? I don't have air circulation in the box, only extraction so hopefully pollination is minimal. They've probably got up to 4 weeks left to go, so should I try to sterilise the grow area? Pollen is hardy stuff I thought so wonder if it'll do any...

I think a couple popped before I got them. I was hoping someone might have a picture of a fertilised plant

Hi, I'm a new micro grower, only about 7 or 8 harvests under my belt. I've got 2 topped NL plants growing (never grown these before so not familiar with exactly what they lool like) in parallel in the same box and one hermie'd on me, I thought I'd removed all the male bits and was going well...

Thanks guys. I'll have more than one plant so I'll give both methods a go

I don't know, im a topping virgin if I wait until there 5 nodes and I top at node 3 that should give me a reasonable sized clipping I'd have thought

Hi. I'm on my third grow and was planning on topping it. My other grows were a photo period that I just lst'd to keep low, and some autos that the prevailing wisdom says LST only. As I thought id have a go at topping this time I was wondering if I am likely to be successful if I use the topping...

Exactly, I knew it was a lesson even even if I was disappointed. I can't believe I waited so long to get into this game

Funking optimism lol I should have gone with my first doubts. Noob keen-ness. Thanks to all for the replies

I had pointy pre flowers but no white hairs and no balls on one of my current plants so i crossed my fingers. Turned out to be a dude. Lady boy plant! Lol hope yours turns it to be a full blown lady

He's been culled now. Bleach the area? Really? I've also read and seen pictures of the pollen sacs bursting and pollen going everywhere. There's no sign of that yet. He's only been on 12-12 for just over 2 weeks. Could he cause me problems?

Thanks chap. Bummer I feared as much. Most of he pictures I've seen of males have proper round balls, I can't find any on that plant. Oh well, all part of the knowledge. Cheers

bugger, wrong photo

Hi, I'm on my first grow. I have 3 plants, the 2 smaller ones are the obviously female but my best one is probably male. I see no white hairs but no round balls either so I'm pig headedly remaining optimistic that it's a girl. They were all grown from bag seed so could be any kind of plant. I've...
