    Enough to make my head spin.

    If you try smokin it, and its nasty and doesn't burn white, it was harvested too early or it wasnt dry enough at that time , or both. I tried some darkstar that wasn't totally dry , so just put it away and back to something else. You should taste the nasty chlorophyll taste less as it dries...

    Problems with my young cheesling

    root rot maybe? moldy medium, could be some brown or yellow dead roots in there. the crown or where the stem and roots meet looks like it needs support, you could just fill the pot all the way but you still might have an issue with the nutrient solution or reservoir , does it drip constantly...

    First grow CFL male or female?

    so you can start flowering, if its just one or 2 small cfls there isn't much point trying to veg it to grow more because it is in a small space. use different spectrum bulbs like 2700k and 3500k 0r 6500k to help with cfl flowering. male or female too hard to tell

    Really useful information for SOIL growers.

    ok I read some of it but I have taken enough horticulture to have seen this info before. You 'highly suggest' 'all growers' should know. It is sort of the neverending pissing contest of 'my way is the best' or my weed is the best ever right? It sounds condescending to someone who worked...

    My first plany Anything wrong?

    1. are you watering by hand? how often and is there good drainage? they look alright but you want more branches (lift the light 6 inches or a foot) so you could just bend them and tie it to a stake or top it but the nodes need light for leaves and branches to form (low angle light). You could...

    cheap setup

    you can talk about 1 gram per watt but it should be also per month or per couple months (over time). With each light you have a certain amount of floor space and a certain amount of canopy space. If you have more plants then each one gets less light . my sun system 150 has a nice zone of light...

    light too soon

    step 1 grow a healthy seedling/ plant. Cloning can be done in different ways. you could take cuttings, and treat the cut ends with vitamin b1, rooting powder, clonex or dip n gro, etc. you could just cut it and plant it but that probably wouldn't work. the plant has to grow and be healthy or...

    Please, I want answers..

    They advertize in hightimes.com with links that say ' skunk bud' then on their side it's stunk bud and stashish. They offer what looks like clippings from organic plants but most times (cannabis excluded) grass clippings or pieces of most plants are not valuable at all. The bottom line is...

    Help - 6 day old HYDRO seedlings.... r they toast? literally??

    the one in the 4 th photo might survive but , you might need to ditch the hydro . It looks like they are not getting enough light and/or they are always saturated and the roots aren't getting oxygen (air pump+ airstone?), maybe. There are lots of different mediums you can use 'hydro' irrigation...

    New leaves are yellow/white, and slow growth in bubble bucket

    they are too far from the light or something, they have chlorosis (chlorophyll disease), and you should have more white roots. If you could remove the brown dead roots and transplant into soil pots it might help. that yellow or white leaf color tells me its all dead material that will not be...

    Help re-veg?

    it could take 2 weeks or a month but- if they got halfway into flowering it takes longer. they have to get enough light and water and/or fish emulsion or grow fertilizers. even with the right setup the roots might be the first part to grow. nothing will happen at first but you will see new...
