    Siamese twins???

    Manifolding would be fairly ambitious for a first grow, imo. I'm not knocking the technique, but it does have a fairly steep learning curve.

    Blueberry Grow Advice

    I would use promix to start the seeds, pop them into a small pot with promix for a couple of weeks, then move them into the stepwell for the remainder of the grow. I'm referring to promix herb & vegetable soil here, not the coco or peat versions, and not the flowering plant blend. Coco or peat...

    Quick LED Question

    There is some science behind the spectrum of light affecting uptake of some nutrients, and production of some compounds, but it's far from complete or definitive. When legalization was announced here the news (CBC) had a segment or two about some guys researching this using cannabis plants...

    Plants not happy... Any help guys? :/

    Looks like a phosphorus deficiency to me. As to the purple, it's only a symptom if it doesn't disappear as the leaf grows. I have had a couple plants that had a red hue to the new growth. As the leaf got bigger it lost the red, and the leaves were perfectly healthy. The temps may need a bit of...

    So slow to finish, around week 11/12 of flower

    Haze strains take a lot longer than anything else I've ever grown. Worth the wait though.

    Oops

    When they're that young you can separate them if you're gentle. If you have the space I would take one out and put it in another container.

    Natural or do i have a problem?

    Whatever it is, I don't think it's anything to worry about at this point. Your plant's overall health looks good. Could be that you just have a purple pheno.

    Hermie?

    Just swollen calyxes. The first ones that form right at the stem, maturing faster than the others.

    Natural or do i have a problem?

    Could there be a phosphorous problem? 50-30 pk seems like a lot.

    Leaf issue

    He's giving you the ph for coco. In soil 6.3 to 6.5 is good.

    Roots popped from top of soil, help

    Should be fine. I've had this happen a couple of times. You just need to keep the seed shell damp to soften it, and so it won't stick to the cotyledons. Only once have I had a seed that kept poking it's root back up above the soil. I just let it go the last time and it never turned around. Must...

    My First Flowering Stage

    If I'm trying out a new technique and I'm worried I might screw it up I use males. That way I don't lose out on any bud if it all goes sideways. But for a first grow you're doing pretty well, certainly better than I did.

    Self topping plants?

    Weird that it's growing back where you cut it. Looks kind of like a fim to me.

    Actual potency numbers, pre and post cure.

    I'm considering getting a prescription now too. Arthritis in a cod climate is no joke.

    puzzled

    Autos are more sensitive than photos, and in MG soil you probably didn't need to add any nutes at all.

    My First Flowering Stage

    How many watts any light pulls from the wall is utterly meaningless, it's all about how much light it puts out and at what spectrum. When everyone was using the same types of light it had some value, but those days are long gone. Good job, both on the plant and on ignoring the drama, lol. In...

    Actual potency numbers, pre and post cure.

    Okay, thanks for the replies everybody. Here's my current plan: Harvest the 12/12 from seed plant in a week or so when she's ready, put some through the process described by @OldMedUser and the rest will be dried, slowly, in paper bags. One bud from the paper bags will be chopped in half, one...

    My trichomes are looking milky on my buds and the end of the leaves actual leaves are looking Amber is it ready to harvest? There's no Amber on bud

    @OGBudz is right, so long as you're past the swell. And so long as you don't have too many clear trichs. If you have some that'll help the high come on faster, and more of a racy feeling. Too many and it'll weaken the high, and it won't last as long.
