    Nitrogen suppliments

    I've basically stopped using so called bloom nutes almost completely myself. Most of the stuff is just hype and it tends to leave your plants N deficiant. I use a bit when I first switch to 12/12 and a bit toward the end of the grow and thats all. KeepitReal in the above post has it right, pay...

    Paying trimming help and other questions

    Just trying to plan ahead and could use a little advice. Last year my wife and I did all the trimming ourselves, and it damned near did us in, as we are getting a bit old for this. Next season I am planning on trying to hire a few trimmers to give us a hand at this and was wondering what a fair...

    Helpppp.newbie...wierd problem/def/bugs ? Picsssss

    Several things to try befor getting over excited. If your plants look healthy outside of what you are seeing in the picts you might try cal/mag to correct any deficiancies. Foxfarm OF is a bit deficiant in that regard. If it persists after applying the cal/mag and waiting to see if it goes away...

    Rosemary

    I've got rosemary growing all around my property. Never water it, never do anything to it, grows in the most inhospitiple enviroments you can imagine. Survives in drought very well. My guess is that its either rootbound or maybe an unhealthy plant. Try just keeping it in a windowsill and see how...

    FIM vs Topping: Best for clones with alternating nodes?

    Probebly a dumb question, but why not just LST them? I find that when a plant gets to the alternating nodes that simply using LST seems to work best. At least for me. Interesting experiment anyway.

    Prepping for 2013 outdoor guerilla grow !

    I hope your selection of ICE does better than mine did last year. Large plants, but fluffy buds. Also was a pretty long winded strain, wasn't finished until mid Nov. Could have just been the pheno I got. Good luck and happy growing.

    Getting ready for NorCal outdoor, Strain Selection

    Getting ready for the upcomming outdoor grow. I've been getting the garden area cleared and ready, hard work for an old guy. I had to cut one oak tree down and it broke my heart to do so. But it was shading too much of my grow area and had to go. Put up the deer fencing and laid out the...

    I give up, what causes this leaf necrosis?

    Ya think? Ive been using test strips to check the ph and use ph down in my watering. Maybe a more accurate measuring system would be better. Anybody try the drops? Can't afford a ph pen at the moment.

    I give up, what causes this leaf necrosis?

    Yes I considered that, we do have a lot of minerals in the water in the seirra foothills due to the limestone and iron content of the soil. I considered a RO filter, but at the moment I can't afford it. Thats next on my 'gotta get' agenda.

    sativa/indica bullshit classification.

    I now how you feel. I grew some c99 a couple of years ago, and it turned out very well. It became my favorite daytime smoke as it didn't give me couch lock and I could still do my chores and be sociable as well. Problem was that the people I was growing for didn't care for it, they wanted the...

    Beginners looking to prepare for Guerrilla Grow.

    I'll second this one. I had smart pots sitting on damp ground and lost several to getting water logged last year. Raise em up off the ground with rocks, wood, old pallets, whatever you can find.

    Plants need water every 2 days

    8 weeks. Time to transplant into a bigger pot. Probebly root bound by now. Are you measuring the temps at canopy level? It sounds as if they are suffering from high temps, but you say they are not. Where is your thermometer in relation to your plants? How far from the lights are they? What...

    I give up, what causes this leaf necrosis?

    Thank you. Been growing since it became legal for me to do so, about 4 years. It hasn't been an easy road at all, I made a bunch of mistakes that caused me untold hours of frustration and lost sleep. I grow in an shed in my back yard and makeing it all happen has been a chore. Proper ventilation...

    I give up, what causes this leaf necrosis?

    I've been using the Seablast transition and Seablast bloom as well. They are made by the same company I believe. Also the Microblast as a suppliment, as well as molassas. I'm still not sold on bud builders. I've read pros and cons and am trying to keep it simple. Thanks for the tip on the ph...
