    Best way to sex a plant is put it under 12/12 and see what it becomes. I pull males on sight.

    Clone issues

    They actually look pretty good for clones...at this stage of growth. Remember, they were deprived to grow roots so the leaves they were cloned with with so signs of malnutrition. I wouldn't be concerned. Just garden on as usual. The new leaves will look good but damage to old leaves can seldom...

    Marijuana Causes Bad Stomach Problems, Etc.

    I hate to disagree with everyone but MJ does not cause stomach problems. "Phages" cause stomach problems when it infects the good bacteria in your stomach.

    Ph down corrosive...

    Someday I'll have to get in contact with the Saint Mary's cement company and find out what they put in their dolomite lime to make it act the way it does.

    Ph down corrosive...

    The dolomite lime I use is for concrete, I get it from a lumber yard. I get the water from a well, blue (over 7 ph), and I can use this type of lime to bring it down to lime green or almost yellow 5.5ph. On my test kit green is 6-6.5, depending on the shade. I've never used any lime made for...

    Ph down corrosive...

    Speaking about all this, I always chuck the very bottom of the res and don't feed it to the moms.

    Ph down corrosive...

    I've been doing it for years. It turns out that dolomite lime takes a bit of time to break down to become absorbed by the plant's root system. By that time the res is long discarded. Unlike soil and other grows that rely on water absorbency in the medium, the lava rock/hydroton F&D system does...

    Nothing to see here.

    Since the last time I had to reload windows I never bothered re-registering it. I haven't had a single bug since. I don't even run the virus shit anymore. I got windows to notify me on anything peculiar that's going on. All programs need permission from me to run. I know it's a lot of crap but...

    My findings are, if you never register your windows with Micro soft, this stuff never happens. Don't download and load MSN, always use a web page to sign in.

    Deficient or Toxicity

    Just thought I might mention, when feeding full strength, in intervals according to the directions on the fertilizer, never pour this solution directly on the base of the plant, or the plant, always pour around the outer edge of the root base. This may not be a problem but just thought I should...

    Snakeoil for sale...

    Some of the 150 watt hps have phenomenal lumens per watts. Doug uses 6 per spot, in place of the 1kw hps. Is Doug getting ripped off? :)

    Snakeoil for sale...

    Grower A buys the $350 hps and the ballast to run it is dirt cheap. Grower B buys the $79 hps but the ballast to run it is priced out of this world. After buying all this shit neither grower has money for LED. Grower C bought the LED but has no money for the rest of the grow equipment. Who got...

    Ph down corrosive...

    In F&D tables you can use dolomite lime as a PH down. A bag purchased from a lumber yard will last like forever on a 1kw grow.

    Grodan Blocks

    I cut all mine from slab. It's less expensive. I noticed grodan is like $10 a slab. The hydro shop guy gets me a no name brand for $5 a slab, but it doesn't say which side is up, but that's not a problem for me. I do a different style so I cut the cubes 2" x 2" x h". The 6" x 6" x h" is usually...

    best nutrients to use in hydro

    In my Flood and Drain Hydro tables I use 1/6 of what is recommended per gallon of water for outdoor grows. The fertilizer preferred by Kush growers in the nineties was Eco Bloom A&B. Someone said they've changed the A since, but I don't know for sure. I scale the fertilizer with weigh scales...

    topping seedlings

    I don't top anymore, I FFIM. In other words take a snip for a clone. Same rules as topping, 3-4 healthy nodes left on the seedling.

    Not 100% sure what is causing this discoloration

    PH..."power of hydrogen". If the PH is out of whack, the plants roots can't absorb certain nutrients...even if there's a ton of it in the plant pot.
