    Classic "Is it ready?" question (w/ pics)

    Hey, folks. Posting to Newbie HQ to avoid the static! Upper Midwest Outdoor grower here. Pretty much on borrowed time in my part of the country. Rain might be coming.. days and nites are cooling off. What do folks see when they take a look at these pics? My pistils have browned and/or...

    Hermie? Pollinated?

    Hey, folks.. Curious what folks see when they look at these pics (same plant). The bracts appear swollen as if they're poised to form seeds, no? I've never seen a hermaphroditic plant in person.. is that what I'm looking at? Is it possible it self-pollinated? I identified a male in my...

    Question re: Vivosun tents

    Hey, folks. I have a quick question regarding grow tents, specifically Vivosun. I'm looking at their 48X24X60 with the intention of keeping a mother alive thru winter for next year's outdoor grow. All of Vivosun's tents appear to have 6" openings near the top, one on either side of the tent...

    New growth issues in outdoor

    I have a microscope, yea. I spotted two mites on two separate occasions and what I assume are their eggs but neither resembled broad mites (or broad mite eggs). I'm in raised/terraced beds comprised of topsoil (w/ heavy clay), cow manure, sifted compost, and a bit of peat moss. My pH wasn't...

    New growth issues in outdoor

    Would you say it took about a month for your plants to recover? I'm up against something very similar.. seems to have affected my entire garden to varying degrees (outdoor grow). I suspected heat stress/lack of water for awhile but this started 3-4 weeks ago and my plants are yet to bounce...

    Anyone recognize these symptoms??

    Hey, folks.. I've scoured some forums, searched the web, and I'm having a hard time tracking down any info re: my plants' current condition (see: attached). Mine is an outdoor grow. I included an overall pic of a plant or two for context cuz, in general, they don't look so bad. Does anyone...

    Mold on trunk? Outdoor grow, pic attached

    Hey, folks.. Found a little mold at ground level, wondering what folks think. I lightly exposed a root which looked healthy to my eye. I have some horticultural hydrogen peroxide, was gonna head back to the garden n apply that. Not sure if it's clear in the pic but the trunk looks a little...

    Folding leaves w/ droopy stems

    I can appreciate how near-sighted my inquiry is as the plants def look like they just want a drink. I've just never seen my plants act like this is all and it happened overnite and seemingly in tandem with a foliar application.. feels a little alarming. Couple gals of H2O per plant yesterday...

    Folding leaves w/ droopy stems

    Thanks for your positivity, honestly. I brought them each a couple gallons of water yesterday and then again tonite. We got .3" of rain today which wasn't much but better than nothing. I've just never seen anything like it with my plants. This year is my first year incorporating peat moss...

    Folding leaves w/ droopy stems

    Hey, folks. Outdoor grower here (Zone 3/4). Can anyone help me identify what's going on with my plants? I sprayed lightly w/ Dr Zymes the other nite for a couple pests and woke to find a lot of them in this state (see: attached). Not sure if their condition is related to the treatment but...

    HOW TO keep a mother..?

    Hey, folks.. Looking for some guidance on how to keep a mother plant alive indoors thru winter. I'm otherwise a strictly outdoor grower but have some genetics that I'd love to keep around (gonna run outta these seeds and they're no longer available). We recently acquired a 4X4X6 tent with...

    FROST: general rules from experience....

    Looks like frost damage to me. I've seen similar results when my plants are exposed to frost and/or cold temps. If you don't see other indications of botrytis or mold, I bet you're ok. The insides of the buds look alright? Lotta good posts on here to let you know what to look for re: bud rot...

    FROST: general rules from experience....

    Quick note for those watching this thread: My plants saw 26F this year.. also temps near 28F w/ very high winds (gusts of 30mph+). I left portions of plants exposed, uncovered, to these conditions and they survived. Suffice it to say, 26F is cold af and appears to be the threshold, at least in...

    Frost

    Say, got any hard numbers re: the temps your plants survived? We're looking at lows in the low 20s for 1-2 nites by the end of this weekend. Just trying to gauge what sorta hopes I have of my crop surviving. I'm gonna cover my plants but those temps are intimidating! Thanks..

    Frost

    Hey there. Upper Midwest outdoor grower here too. Any notes taken in the past re: temperature thresholds for your plants? We're about to see some seriously cold overnite temps where I'm at for 1-2 nites in a row before things level out again. My plants have, in some cases, a week to 10 days...

    How I dry/cure my harvest

    Very helpful post. Thanks for taking the time to lay it out, especially w/ some specific numbers re: temp and humidity. I'm a little curious about the hairs (pistils?) I see in your photos. Most folks, yourself included, encourage waiting until pistils have receded. How do so many wind up on...
