    No produce in over a year? Let's get to the bottom of this dilemma.

    what does the legalizing of hemp mean for us outdoor growers?

    There are organic herbicides. More expensive and less effective than chemicals but they do work. Pulling the hemp plants out by hand would be a friendly alternative too. Good luck.

    what does the legalizing of hemp mean for us outdoor growers?

    I grew up on a farm with a huge yard/lawn and we never had a dandelion problem if we sprayed the lawn. I'd assume that most broadleaf herbicides should do the trick.

    what does the legalizing of hemp mean for us outdoor growers?

    I would guess that means the development of a pesticide (herbicide) that will kill hemp dead.

    How much direct Air do you Guys put on your Plants?

    I have 2 4 inch fans in a 4.4 cubic foot cabinet, set so they'll circulate the air. I do notice that the buds directly in front of the fan seem to be the frostiest.

    UV, IR, How much, for how long?

    I know that when I was running super cheap blurple lights, they seemed to put out a frostier bud that was perhaps of a higher quality, although much less quantity. The blurples were said to have UV and IR. Since my conversion to all COB, my buds don't really seem to stink like they should...

    UV, IR, How much, for how long?

    How are you adding the UVA/UVB, IR, deep red, and far red? What chips? How much power? At what distance to the canopy?

    UV, IR, How much, for how long?

    I would like to add some "terpene enhancement" to my light bars. I just don't know what chips to get and how hard to run them. I'd rather not roast my ladies in an attempt at making them stronger. I'm sure some of you have learned the hard way. Any chance I can learn from your mistakes...

    dry vs. wet trimming

    I also split trimming times. Big fan leaves are easy wet. Smaller sugar leaves are easier to cut after they've had a chance to dry for a couple days.

    Which ine too choose?

    I do a perpetual harvest, easy to do with autos. If you're not already, I'd definitely recommend it. Then you could have your bulbs mixed which is supposedly better for the gals.

    question, 1st auto grow outdoors, white widow

    That's about what mine look like. LST is fine, don't break it.

    Music

    I agree. I should take 1st generation clones from a stable mother and put them in the side by side tests. I'll see what I have for seed stock and get ready for a more accurate test. I have a decent seed selection, maybe a longer flowering sativa would be a better candidate for the test...

    Top 10 Songs for Plants and Gardens to Thrive On. Music is Proven to help plants Grow

    I am currently conducting experiments with silent and zen/meditation music that is played for 2 hours twice a day. An hour before and after lights on/off. Using "Grapefruit Diesel" as my test subjects, each plant was mainlined out to 16 tops before being placed in separate, 3 square foot...

    1st time "Manifolding"

    If you're in soil, I'd definitely try for a bigger pot. Even if you are using kitchen style garbage cans, those are 13 gallons and if you shop around you can find some that will fit in your tent nicely. Short on height? Use a kitty litter style bucket, the rectangular 5 gallon pails, they're...

    Scrog Just Set To Flower - Fan Leaves?

    I agree and don't want to argue, just pointing out that the leaves do the photosynthesis, not the buds.

    Music

    I play a Zen relaxation track for an hour before and after lights on and off, so 4 hours total per day. Currently doing an experiment using 2 cabinets in totally separate locations, one gets music, the other is silent. Strain is Grapefruit Diesel, both plants are from seed and both were...

    FAST AND VAST FIRST GROW ANY TIPS GREATLY APPRECIATED MANY THANKS

    How many grows do you have under your belt? I don't really recommend autos for newbies since you can't make any mistakes without seriously sacrificing yield. With a photo plant you can make a few mistakes and keep them in veg until you feel ready. If you fuck up an auto, you fucked up your crop.

    Seeds are not maturing? Stumped and need help

    Vostok is a pretty good info source. I also question the age and viability of the pollen used.

    Nebula's Manifold Technique outdoors?

    Sure it can. I believe the only difference is that Nebula makes a FIM cut rather than a normal topping. I've tried that mainlining technique and it didn't work very well for me. Maybe it was just the strain in was using. Now I mainline pretty much every photo plant that I have. It's a better...

    Training vs scrog

    4 square feet, not 4x4. Gram per watt numbers don't really mean much to me since I only harvest half the area at a time. Dry.
