    Gnat problem, what to do in Coco?

    Thanks guys. I've got some sticky traps and mosquito dunks headed my way, so hopefully that does the trick. I'm not overwhelmed by the little fuckers (yet), but like I said, they've been with me for the last couple of grows and I want them gone. On my last grow I was getting what I think was...

    Gnat problem, what to do in Coco?

    Thanks for the replies. So you think Mosquito dunks over Gnatrol, Azamax, or Gognats? I'm on a top drip system right now, so I'd like to continue using a hydro medium. That said, what goes in your organic soil mix? I saw this product elsewhere and it seemed like a better alternative to sand...

    Gnat problem, what to do in Coco?

    The last few grows I've done in coco and I keep getting gnats (which I guess are the same thing as fruit flies?). I've bought sticky traps, and while that does catch some of the adults, it hasn't solved the problem. I've read through a bunch of threads on here and see that people like using...

    Girl look awesome! Quick question: what size pots are they in, and will you finish them in these pots?

    Lambs Bread- 73 days in and I'm looking for help + opinions!

    I decided to cut on Friday as planned and got everything hung up in the tent to dry. Temp was 68 degrees and humidity was 40%, no fans with passive air intake from the tent flaps. Over the last few days the smell in the tent has become worse and worse, to where it smells straight up grassy...

    Lambs Bread- 73 days in and I'm looking for help + opinions!

    Yeah, looks good, but smells pretty green/grassy already. I just put those buds in a jar with a hygrometer, and it says 60% so maybe I'm still in the cure zone and the smell will improve. I'm just worried cuz this is exactly how my last several harvests smelled and tasted a few days after...

    Yeah, not sure about the smell. I might not be the best at describing it? Either way, as long as I get properly grown, good tastin flowers, I'll be stoked! I'm using Fox Farm soil and nutes (with Beastie and Open Sesame). That was a great read, thanks for the link! I'll definitely be trying...

    Usually I flush and go to straight water for the last week. I have tried not flushing but either way I still have the green tasting bud issue!

    No worries, no such thing as too much information! Thanks for the input on my buds and the hermes/density questions. Hopefully that means I'll have good things in my future! On Monday I decided to set up the closet for drying. I cut off a branch, trimmed it up, and hung it to dry. Tuesday...

    Lambs Bread- 73 days in and I'm looking for help + opinions!

    Any other suggestions out there as to why I just got male flowers in week 11? Do the flowers seem fluffy to anyone else, maybe I need to supplement the 1000w light with some fluorescents? Here's a pic of under the canopy: Thanks again for all the help! It's been several years and several grows...

    Very interesting, high humidity during flowering could be the issue! I've never really tried to keep it down that low, but my A/C has a dehumidify setting so I'll run that for a couple days to see if that helps. Question for you: as I mentioned in my original post, I am starting to see male...

    Lambs Bread- 73 days in and I'm looking for help + opinions!

    Thanks for the info. It's pretty dry here most of the time, between 30-50% humidity. In the tent the humidity levels are usually between 60% and 70%, but in the closet where I dry it's more like 30-50%. Temps in the tent are ~74 daytime, ~70 nighttime, temps in the closet are a little cooler...

    Lambs Bread- 73 days in and I'm looking for help + opinions!

    Yes, the stems do still peel when I try to rip off a bud, but the edges of the bud have started to get crisp. In recent grows I'd say that maybe it takes 3-5 days to reach this point? I've tried using a humidifier to make sure the buds don't dry out too quickly, but the end result is the same-...

    I hope they taste good! I've just been here before where I thought I had some good looking flowers that ended up tasting bad in the end. What did you think of my drying and curing process, sound good to you? From what I saw here at this site, "green taste" comes from flowers that are cut too...

    ClaytonBigsby- These are untopped. I pruned off several lower branches when I switched to flowering KUShSOurSMOKEr- Thanks, I hope those ladies go well for you! After chopping, here's what I do 1. cut the fan leaves off, then go in for a finer trim. 2. I hang them in a dark closet that has a...

    Wow, thanks for the quick responses! That's why this forum rules... Dr Lg- Yeah, I think next time I'll keep that 18 inches between tops and light at all times. I actually have a A/C unit that I'm standing over that constantly blows air. dam 612- Thanks man! I hope they taste good too...

    Here are my 6 Lambs Bread after 73 days of flowering. I just noticed some male flowers today so I feel like I absolutely need to chop now. What do the experts think, are they ready to go? Also, I'm looking for tips/advice on my set-up. I feel like my plants are stretched and there should be...
