    Shrinking seeds.

    Cool thanks I may get those. They look pre-wetted. They must have a short shelf life no? Anything moist out here winds up with black mold.

    Shrinking seeds.

    When I started I had maybe a 80% rate going now it is more like 40%. I am getting a lot of seeds growing upside down too. Maybe I am doing something wrong. I have been using Peet pods and they seem to dampen off. Maybe I should just go back to dirt. I cannot figure it.

    Shrinking seeds.

    It seems like since I started growing 4 years ago that seed banks are turning out smaller and smaller seeds. Has anyone else noticed this? My germination rate has gone way down and I assume it's because the seeds are less healthy/given less time to mature or just genetically altered where they...

    What is up with my CO2 mushrooms.

    I have 3 mycolabs C02 boost bags in my 4x4x8 grow tent. That tent is in a 8x8 room with a closed door and no active ventilation just some gaps in the dry wall at the ceiling rafters. Some days when I go in my cheap little CO2 meter says 2000ppm in the room and some days it says 405ppm which is...

    Should this worry me.

    Thanks for all the input I forgot about this post. This was an outdoor grow and we do get black mold out here on Long Island often. Luckily it never presented in any of the buds or sugar leaves. The white spots on the zoom in are probably milk residue from spraying milk water to fight PM. I...

    Should this worry me.

    I think I was overwatering late into cycle and my plants developed these black spots that look suspiciously like black mold in the leaves. It does not seem to be making it to the buds themselves should I be worried?

    Branches wilting with rot on the stem.

    Yea it is spreading downwards. Grayish fungus inside the stem. Hopefully most of the plant lives for 2 more weeks for harvest.

    Branches wilting with rot on the stem.

    Well it's outdoors and gets plenty of airflow, and I am getting zero actual bud rot so I was leaning away from Botrytis. I guess maybe that corner of the plant is some how pooling a lot more dew then the rest of the plant or was injured some how ans that let bud rot set in who knows.

    Branches wilting with rot on the stem.

    I have had a few branches just begin to wilt this year. When looking at the plant there is a grayish brown rot at the stem. Any idea what's causing this? This is the wilted branch before and the stem after pulling it off.

    Is this branch done?

    Good idea. It's a week later and the electrical tape and stake have kept it healthy. I don't think the break healed but it's hard to tell with the tape there but the buds and leaves are healthy so I guess it's good enough. The plant is special to me because I have no clue what it is. It was...

    Is this branch done?

    Thanks for the replies. I was able to use the stake I propped it up with to wedge it together more and then closed it tight with some double wide electric tape a city worker gave me when I gave him some weed. A virtuous cycle.

    Is this branch done?

    I had a branch snap 80% off or so. It is still attached and I supported the weight with a stake. Any chance it lives? I am on Long Island and the hotter weather is done just some 80 degree days ahead so it should not transpire too much. The gap I'm the break seems to have started to dry out...

    Under-canopy light on the cheap.

    Ya, if I line these guys up right it will only add maybe 50 PPFD oh well.

    Under-canopy light on the cheap.

    Ya the visibility difference is phenomenal when watering. I really think once I redo the tent and wrap them around the polls they will be worth something for growth. Really the cheapness and quality of the lights made me want to try it more then anything.

    Under-canopy light on the cheap.

    It's gotta be close to 100w it has a diode every 3/4" and is 50 feet long so around 70 diodes. Given it was only $34 I feel like it's a fun experiment just to try, even though realistically I'm looking at less then 1% gains on yeald. It is also nice since it's hanging out of my tent some and...

    Under-canopy light on the cheap.

    I don't know if it will make a difference but it's 100 watts, made my hoeky phone lux meter show 1300 lux in places that used to be 400 lux and could be arranged way better with a fresh grow but I was 2 weeks into flower when I thought to look so wrapping it around the bottom was a chore. I...

    Why am I getting Brown Rust blotches?

    I bet overwater is right, I've been spritizng the leaves and we just had a lot of rain, and those 20 gallon pots hold a ton of water. The soil is some combination of Promix Organic Garden and FoxFarms Ocean forest plus some miracle grow or something random I was feeling at the time but they all...

    Why am I getting Brown Rust blotches?

    My seeds are just a few weeks old and developing brown splotches on the leaves. Anybody have an idea? The closest I could find were pictures of Boron deficiency due to incorrect PH.
