    First grow, how is it?!

    LMAO......if there one question a new grower ask is how does my 1 week old plant look....it has to be on here a million times. It looks fine. You'll probably over-water it as everyone does....so don't. Moisten the soil and then let it dry out a bit. Your plant's roots needs air as much as it...

    the truth about the final flush

    I've never smoked a joint and said "I can really taste the nitrogen in this weed".....or P or K. What exactly does nitrogen taste like? I know some good growers that do what they call "Make it rain" during the flowering period. It's much like flushing, but it's done at various times during...

    My first grow!

    You'll be tempted to put your lights close to that little plant....don't. A plant that size really doesn't need a ton of light, and just about every new grower ends up burning his plants. You'll be fine with your light about a foot over your seedling. Once it grows to about 4-5 nodes, you'll...

    My first grow!

    CFL's are a decent budget grow, but you might want to put some 6000k bulbs in the mix at least for veg. I like a dual spectrum in flower as I feel it gives dense buds....in flower I'd go with 2 2700k to every 6000k......and reverse that ratio for veg.

    Question about Vaporizers!?

    I have about eight different strains from Sat-dom to Indica-dom and they all taste the same to me in a vape. The only way I can tell is from the buzz. Considering you're only heating the weed up to a temperature that vaporizes the THC, I think the only thing you'll taste is the vapor from the THC.

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    What are the odds that pk_boosted2 will actually learn something after all of this? Or does he feel that he knows all there is to know about nutrients and will continue to go on his merry way. If I were spending $500 a month on nutrients and numerous fellow growers, many that are very good at...

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    A link to my grow journals. Keep in mind I grow in a 4x6 room and have no less than 8 full-size plants going on at any one time. https://www.rollitup.org/Journal/lilroach.571815/

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    You get what you pay for? Honestly, you have some good looking plants and nuggets.....very nice stuff. While I'm pretty much a closet grower, I've grown weed very similar in size and (almost) the same yield per plant as you......with Jack's Classic. I'll do some digging and see if I can find...

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    My wife is one of those tree hugging vegetarians that is all about organic stuff put into her body. She too says she can taste the difference between organic grown and chemically grown weed. Several years ago I rolled two joints of the same weed...grown in Jacks. I told her one was organic...

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    I don't think anyone is saying AN doesn't work, I think people are pointing out that instead of spending $500 a month to grow weed, it can be done (in Rid's example) and improve yields for all of $30 a month. I can attest that switching from General Organics to Jacks has doubled and sometimes...

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    Wait.....you used a tomato trick to grow weed?? Do you not know weed is a mystic plant that needs special growing techniques and nutrients to grow big plants?

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    It boggles my mind that we're on page......what....85......and the same drivel is here as there was on page 12. And what has anyone learned after following this thread all this time.......how to put down someone else in the most colorful ways..... It's my opinion the smartest thing in a flower...

    Wow......really? I'm sorry, but you are indeed coming across as a lemming of whatever the grow-shops tell you is the right way of growing.

    FS C99 Flowering Time

    I've toyed with flower times and container sizes with FS C99. For me, the optimum veg time is about 4 weeks.....in a 2 gal container and you'll get a plant around 30" tall.

    FS C99 Flowering Time

    You get a different high depending on when you chop. Chop around 7 weeks it's a trippy high....9 weeks is more of a heady buzz. I chop at mostly cloudy with some clear. I don't wait for amber.

    Watering from the bottom up. (wicking)

    I bottom feed all through veg and often all the way through 12/12. Yes, I let the pots sit in water...often for a day or so before all of it is absorbed (I use Happy Frog). I have roots sitting in water without a problem. When I first started doing this I worried about root-rot, but it never...

    Good bulbs vs cheap bulbs (hid lighting)

    Last June I noticed that my plants just stopped growing. I mean they didn't even bend towards the lights anymore (I didn't have to turn them all-of-a-sudden). It took two weeks for me to notice that nothing was going on in the flower room. I never considered it was the lights because I just...
