    is this light stress? pics included

    Mag deficiency. I have been using Humboldts Equilibrium Cal-Mag supplement. It is full of kelp and crab meal. Kelp is good for plants that are under stress. You should expect some more yellowing starting from the bottom fan leaves and working its way up as the plants move N from the leaves to...

    Guidance for first grow needed!

    Your electric should be fine. Use 15amp extension cord, power strip, timer etc. Get rid of the aluminum foil and replace it with mylar, use the emergency sheet if need be. Using more 23w CFLs is better than using just a few 125w CFLs. Using all 2700k bulbs is not ideal, you should use one 5700k...

    Is this nute burn?

    That's nute burn, alright. Are you sure you read the directions right? theres no way quarter-strength nutes should be burning your plant like that.

    What Soil Do I Need?

    Time-release=bad. FFOF is best if you can afford it. I use Pro-MixBX, which is about 25% perlite with the beneficial bacteria already added. Pro-Mix costs about a fourth as much as FFOF. If you are planning on doing less than 10 plants at a time then I would spring for the FFOF. Im doing 50 at a...

    Sodium bulbs

    THREE WORDS : Ceramic Metal Halide. Theses bulbs produce just as much blue as a MH and just as much red orange as a HPS, plus they produce WAY more UVA and UVB. They can be used throughout the entire life cycle of the plant. They cost about half as much as the "enhanced spectrum" bulbs , last...

    I was going to recommend Hormex or kelp. Superthrive will work too.

    smell management/ how realistic

    For example, my DjShort's Blueberry don't smell that strongly and even when trimming and drying they produce a pleasant blueberry odor with hints of anise that is really easy to mask. My OGKush, however starts stinking so bad in the 4th week of flowering; it smells like someone spilled kerosene...

    smell management/ how realistic

    google DIY carbon air scrubber. Choose a strain that doesn't have any skunk or chemdawg in it. Some strains don't smell as much as others and some don't really have that classic marijuana smell that older people are accustomed to. Ona gel, citrus magic and those glade air fresheners that spray...

    My Magnesium hell!!

    Simple Nitrogen deficiency. Nothing to worry about at all. It is perfectly natural for the plant to use up all the N in the soil and start to pull it from the leaves. No need to flush. back off a little on the Cal-Mag and give her 1/3 grow formula and 2/3 bloom formula next time you water. Don't...

    Cali connection "Girl scout cookies" 8th week of flowering.

    That baby has 2 weeks to go. Flush her and no more nutes. Her fans leaves will yellow and fall off and your sugar leaves and pistils will turn all kinds of wild colors as she sucks the nutrients out of the leaves and moves them around within her. Use a microscope and test samples from different...

    harvest time? Black trichomes White pistils

    I have had a couple plants turn out with black trikes from misting when it was hot and leaving them under the lights before they were dry. It turned about half the trikes deepDEEP red, almost totally black. Probably would have looked black under slightly less light.

    Hermie or just paranoid?

    Naw dude youre all good. Is this possibly an autoflower? Some of those are kind of inconsistent with odd budding patterns and the like. I really don't think this is a hermy.

    Quick question about molasses.

    I always flush for ten days, but I have heard of people using it up until harvest day with no ill effect.

    Confused as **** about FoxFarms Schedule.

    btw... DONT use this recipe with a hydro system. It will clog your shit up real fast! This is a soil recipe.

    Confused as **** about FoxFarms Schedule.

    You will need to find Unsulphured Blackstrap Molasses. I use Slow-As brand that I find in the pancake aisle of the supermarket. I boil a gallon of water, turn off the heat and add a Tablespoon of molasses and stir, stir, stir. I let it cool and oxygenate it over-night. I give it to my plants...

    Confused as **** about FoxFarms Schedule.

    Forget about the open sesame and cha-ching and all that bullshit. Ive been using FoxFarm nutes for a while now and the only thing I use outside of the big three is a homemade molasses bloom booster. The big bloom is organic and its really hard to burn them with it. Start your GrowBig or your...

    Almost There ?

    Looks like your a little over halfway there. I have no idea what strain this is, so it is incredibly hard to tell. When my trikes are half milky and half clear, it takes about 2 weeks before they are half milky and half amber. It is during this period that they pack on about a third of their...

    11hr dark in flowering?

    No biggie. As long as they are consistently getting more than 10 hours of dark. Mine are on a 12/12 timer and Ive fucked up and bumped the dials around and they only got 10.5 hours of dark for almost a week before I caught it and they were just fine. The more regular the light schedule the...
