    Regular dying leaves/senescence or mold?

    It's both. The senescent leaf gets enough necrosis that decomposers take over.

    Tincture - not sure what we have and how to use it

    Alcohol vs naphtha. I've tried both. The original recipe naphtha is much stronger than 95% ethanol. It evaporates completely. That said, it's not easy to find purified naphtha. There's other chemicals added or get in during processing.

    Breeders, Moneygrabs, and Hermies

    Hermaphrodites are interesting. I cut my face and hands in cane grass in my teens growing with my father. His strains were all landrace crosses, pakalolo, later infused with the first early girls and silver pearl genetics. To shorten flower time to beat green harvest when they only flew during...

    And have a back up plan. Late May or even first week of June cold temps can stress and trigger flowering. Sometimes they grow out of it, but lost time. Sometimes not and need to replace.

    When to Start - Slammin Pie

    Germinate now according to your folk lore and method. You can sex them in the tent then transplant females. It's the ambiguous finish time huh? One might expect indica dominant strains to finish faster, but likely description of effects. Using the F2 male likely has differences in finish time...

    Rusty spots on my leaves

    Those buds should be bigger. If worried about excess nutes try a microbe flush. Compost or EWC extract microblif or liquid photosynthesis. No need brew a tea. And top dress some dolomite, this will help with low pH cal and mag. If I remember fox farms has strong and weak feeding recommendations...

    Rusty spots on my leaves

    No bugs on underside of leaves? Looks like potassium and calcium deficiency. The buds should be much bigger, some thing is holding growth back.

    Advice - Pollen Chucking

    First time I experimented with it to make feminized seeds. It wasn't as strong as the forums recommend. But still worked. I can't remember if the next colloidal silver I bought was recommended strength, but it worked too. It's a very strong antimicrobial, found in first aid/ medicines shelves in...

    Guerrilla grow hole prep with coco baskets, see diagram and thoughts

    I loved guerilla growing it was such a great experience. I grew in many climates in Hawaii and hated schlepping water. Everything can be seen by helicopters so doing it right is key to harvesting. Dig the hole as deep as you can through the top soil and well past any roots especially grass...

    Hard to find pumpkin

    Looks like an old distant relative of butter nut squash. Can you import the squash and collect the seeds? It should ship well and likely easy to treat the exterior for pests or pathogens for import. Pricey compared to a seed pack...

    Plain & Simple IDK

    Ok. Did you feed or up pot yet? It's usually a very quick nutrient correction. Is your water conditioned to get pH 6? That's kinda low for Muni or well water in my experience. It's almost ideal for plants, little bit too low, but when mixing liquid ferts (all acidifiers) you could be feeding...

    Advice - Pollen Chucking

    You are working with clones right? You can hope for a great male from somewhere or try making feminized seeds. I have had great success with colloidal silver in making feminized seeds. There can be significant differences in the hybrid depending on the pollen donor, i.e., its worth it to cross...
