    Start flushing? Week 8 green poison.

    Absolutely! No matter what you feed your plant it will not flavor the plant in any way shape or form. You can however ruin the flavor by not drying and curing it properly. Throwing extra water at it or starving it will only cause stress and we all know a stress free plant will grow at its...

    Are they done yet? What does "done" look like?

    I will play. This is the first of an un-named cross I made. I had polinated a platinum Bubba with a Lemon OG that I call Bubba Louy. Then I used pollen from a Bubba Louy on a Holy grail and got this. This is week 8 with 30% or so amber. I also used some Bubba Louy pollen on a Xj13. I have...

    Timers that can do 5mins off 2 on???

    I modified some of the cheap 24 hour timers. $7 per timer and 15 minutes got me as low as 1.25 minutes per tab. I use them for fans to regulate temps. I used to use one on my cloner but it works best when running the pump 24 hours.

    Why are these clones yellowing and shriveling?

    If your using a pc you can drag and drop pictures to the text box. As for the cloning issue I have nothing to add. I also am dealing with yellowing since I moved almost two years ago.

    greenhouse

    I have been growing in a greenhouse for 4 years. We are just now seeing night time temps in the upper 30's to lower 40's so it is still to early for starts. I do have one of my Xj13 x Bubba Louy crosses out there. Its throwing pollen so I had to get it out of my room :hump: Should make some...

    Relay triggered from 110/120vac but carries 240v load?

    Info: Contactors and Relays perform the same task of switching a circuit. If you see from the application point of view, you would have seen contactors placed in control panels of industrial motors or other heavy loads. Whereas, relays are used in low voltage applications such as switching a...

    Stored water/teas.

    Gotcha.. Have you considered using a back pack to carry water with you? The only issue I would be worried about with your idea is having to clean the tubs periodically. Sounds like there is a chance someone could see you while you are working.

    Do you count flowering from 12/12 switch or when you see pistil hairs?

    If starting the count down on the day the lights are switched to 12/12 is correct then all of my strains need two to three more weeks than advertised. I start counting at the first sight of flowering and always have to go over by a week or so.

    Oops little help please emergency flush

    Ah yes The ol flush mah plants routine! In all of my life I have never seen water flow out of a plant, sap yes, water no. How anyone could possibly think drowning roots would remove anything from the plant is beyond me. Farmers do not over water the fields prior to harvest so why would...

    Stored water/teas.

    Is the water source natural or man made? Storing water can lead to issues in my experience such as stagnation. I found that bubbling the water would cause the PH to raise but letting it sit without bubbling did not.

    Steer Manure

    Love my steer manures! I also use chicken manure and mushroom compost. None of which are used until the plants are put into bigger pots. I use pro mix and used soil for the small plants.

    Most efficient pots

    I always look at my root balls after harvest to see how well they spread. With the smart pot I always found dry spots. When I say dry I mean Dry as a bone! You would think that pouring 1.5 gallons of water into a 10 gallon pot would moisten the soil all the way through but it didn't. I always...

    Veg height?

    My veg lights are set up so I can only veg to 29 inches in a 18 gallon tub. This gives me a finished height around 48 inches depending on the strain. My flower lights are fixed at 6 foot above the floor. I usually pull between 5 and 7 ounces per plant again strain dependent.

    Portable AC.. can i hook up ducting to the attic

    This is what I read... You want to run all of the ducts to the attic correct? What I was meaning is pulling the hot air from the attic into the A/C will not work as efficiently as it should. You can blow all the air you want into the attic.
