    CBD treating restless legs

    Hey rollitup community, I'm sure you're all intimately familiar with the broad medicinal properties of cannabinoids. However, I just wanted to share yet another anecdote to add to the books. My sister has been struggling with restless legs syndrome (RLS) for years. She has tried all the...

    Aerated compost tea, 5gal: What air stone do you use?

    Hey greasemonkeymann, I'm wondering why the bubbling at the surface has a greater contribution to aeration than microbubbles injected in the bottom of the bucket? Intuitively, I can't wrap my mind around that. I've cultured bacteria (E. coli) in erlenmyer flasks at my lab for over a decade...

    Is this root rot?

    Thanks bernie420. I agree, the brown tips look like air pruning. I'm more concerned about the brown spots in the middle of the root, not at the tip. Also, I figured out what bug that is in the pic, since I discovered some ROOT APHIDS on some other clones...argh! This may be why I'm seeing...

    Is this root rot?

    Thanks for chiming in MD and LL, I'm glad to hear they look healthy! I still wonder what the brown regions in some of the roots are from, especially since I see a little bug which I wonder may be eating or damaging the roots. I've had a solid fungus gnat problem, that I'm about to treat with...

    A Guide To Colloidal Silver

    I wonder if the "decaying" your friend was seeing is aggregation of the smaller silver particles into larger particles, since the OP indicated smaller particles appear yellow and larger particles confer a dark appearance. Especially if you observe visible "chunks" in the liquid, it is most...

    Is this root rot?

    I found a few brown root tips on this clone and it has a musky smell to it...not sour, just musky. I was hoping to get a few expert opinions on whether I should be concerned or not. The attached pic shows the yellow/brown spots in the zoomed pic (you can also see a little bastard bugger in the...

    Real deal sour diesel?

    JC...I'm kinda hesitant to post into this hostile thread, but since I recently got a cut of AJ's SD from Harborside in Oakland and I'm going to ASSume it's a legit source, I'll just share my subjective experience in the early stages of growing it. Mind you, it is still in veg and only has about...

    Hollow stems seen as a positive in Marijuana?

    This thread is a bit old, but I was wondering if hollow stems can be a mechanism for fast vertical growth? I have a male plant started from seed under strong T5 light that grew tight nodes and a very sturdy stem. Once I found out it was male, I put it in my living room in low light for about...

    Oregon Elite Seeds

    Cool, thanks for the advice. I'll try to increase the temperature the next time I germinate. I wouldn't say the seeds are small, but definitely blonde (pic below).

    Oregon Elite Seeds

    Thanks, I think I found the thread. I scraped the seams with a razor blade and squeeze-popped it as per Snow's recommendation, and then I tossed them in fresh water in the dark. I guess I'll see Tues evening if they're alive.

    Oregon Elite Seeds

    @OregonEliteSeeds Super stocked about the Poison Girl I got from Snowhigh. I tried popping 4 of them with the water method and they haven't cracked in 5 days. I want to try again with some different methods, but wondering if you have any recommendations specific to this batch/strain...

    Mild leaf tip curling downward

    Yeah, definitely not using a T5 for flowering, hehe. Will install a HPS 1000w soon, but gotta rig the ac/ventilation first. The issue is the beginning of the leaves curling downward at the tips. It is not a huge problem now, but I want to be vigilant and correct any issues before they get bad...

    Mild leaf tip curling downward

    Thanks jtrizzy and tpc_mikey. jtrizzy: Absolutely, the fact that this plant is the only one curling does make me wonder, which is why I added the walmart bag to possible causes. However, it is not the only variable that changed. The complete list of variables are: 1) Strain: this is the...

    Mild leaf tip curling downward

    Thanks jtrizzy. Yeah, it's not too bad right now, but I wanted to figure out why it was turning south to prevent any further deterioration of the plant. I went with the WalMart bag to save $ for other grow equipment (lights, ac, fans/ducting, etc.), since I'm on a tight budget startup...

    Male preflowers?

    Haha, no, not "growing in shower", its "a grower and a shower"...a perverted homage to my east la avatar. As for your males in the woods, snuffing out local outdoor competition are we? Hehe, the market is getting saturated isn't it?

    Mild leaf tip curling downward

    Introduction: The plant is a strawberry cough clone I obtained 4 weeks ago at ~10 in. in a rockwool cube. I’m growing indoors under a T5 lamp, room is 7.5’ x 11’ with 8’ ceiling. I am using Fox Farms Ocean Forest potting soil, which shows a pH of ~6.5 before use (mixed 1:5 with pH 7 RO water...

    Male preflowers?

    Thanks everyone for your help. That's what I thought, just had a hard time convincing my even-more-newbie partner to get rid of them. Your expertise is invaluable! Happy growing! growerNshower
