    Why are Gelatos (and Runtz) so popular? The high is flat.

    Marketing, marketing, marketing. People buy what they are told to buy, particularly if they are not well educated about the product and have to rely on other people’s expertise. Also, I think there is a placebo effect, particularly if the person does not have a good frame of reference. For...

    Should I repot my autoflowers into bigger pots?

    Hey, get at least a 3 gallon pot for your autos. You can transplant them, but I switched recently to the starter pots that dissolve. As such I start them and plant the entire starter pot into a 5 gallon. I used to grow indoors, but now strictly outdoors (due to the Mrs. complaining). Weed is...

    Way too many contradictions in this hobby.

    Hey. Weed is weed. It has been growing for millennia both with and without human intervention. I have done some very stupid things to plants when listening to bad advice. But guess what . . . the plants lived (duct taped, beaten up, chem-burned, but they lived). I learned that plants need water...

    Bud Rot?

    Hello. I concur with the others, and your plants need at least 3 weeks before you consider harvesting. Generally, when the pistols recede and the buds look like they are carrying seeds, the plant is ready. Also, google bud rot and get accustomed to the appearance, because it will devastate your...

    When to harvest? (Sativa) My 1st grow. Pictures included

    Without looking at your trichomes it is hard to tell. However from the pictures, you have at least 4 to 5 weeks to go minimum. Also the yellowing leaves seem to be isolated to one plant, which indicates an issue with that plant (assuming that all of the other plants in the picture are the same...

    Autos not flowering until I reduce light time

    My understanding is that auto flowers flower irrespective of light/dark periods. As such, you changing the light/dark periods will not induce flowering or impact the growth. Think about it, if your hypothisis is correct then the converse would be true: 24/7 light would prevent flowering in an...

    Very high EC tap water, what should I do?

    Do you have a nursery, Home Depot, Lowes, or garden center nearby? If so, I bet you they use that same municipal tap water that is running through your tap to water the plants that they sell. If the water is safe for you to drink, it is safe for your plants. I know that we want great yields so...

    Trimming/Pruning In Flower

    I agree with @JimHaddar, your plants look good and you should trim when you want. If growing indoors, I personally would have trimmed before switching to flower. If I were outdoors, I would trim once I saw the plant beginning to flower. After the stretch, I only trim to remove damaged leaves...

    Issues with flowering plants too soon

    No. It is my experience that whether it be an auto, a photoperiod plant grown indoors at 12/12 from seedling, or an outdoor grow photoperiod, the plant flowers when it is time for it to flower based on genetics or environmental conditions. I have had stress cause plants that were in flower...

    How Cold Is Too Cold? (40-50f Nights OK?)

    No need to take them inside at those temps. Also, auto-flowers tend to weather the cold pretty well due to the ruderalis mix, since it is native to cold climates.

    Reintroducing myself and a NORTHERN VIRGINIA feeler!!!

    I am relocating to NOVA from So.MD. I have 3 auto lemon 1:1 THC/CBD that just germinated, and they are under a light in #5 grow bags (vivosun). I plan on planting Afghan Cow ( Dr. Krippling), Tropicanna Banana (Barney's), and LSD (Barney's) in #15 grow bags (vivosun) and putting them on the...

    15 day old ,and growing strangely

    I agree, it is either genetics or stress. I have had 2 and 3 pronged leaves grow from plants, and after the plant vegged/ regained health normal leaves grew.

    Light stress?

    I use Recharge with FFOF, and I typically start using it when the plant has about 2 to 3 nodes (although I use mycorrhizae earlier if I transplant from a solo cup). I do not believe that the hot soil has any negative effect on the function of Recharge. Also, remember that Recharge assists the...

    Cold Weather Growing

    Your plants will be fine. I am admittedly new to growing, and this is my second "crop." In my tent I am growing auto duck (Dutch Passion), blue cheese auto (Barneys), and auto blue amnesia (Amsterdam Genetics). My tent stays around 60 to 63 degrees F. Outside of the tent I am growing 1 LSD...

    I am glad to hear that your bunny is okay. However, did he get the munchies? Just kidding. I wouldn't have made the joke if he were injured.
