No offense taken:)

Good question. I learned everything I know about growing either here or at places I discovered here. Have always been a lurker. Have a lot to learn and not that much to offer although I do have some years of experience now. Reason I don't have much confidence in sexing is I always grow...

That's what I'm looking for. Thank you very much.

I suspect there is a base of knowledge regarding the viability of hermie produced seeds but I am not familiar with it. Maybe an increased chance for more hermies?

One of my plants is showing a strange genetic indicator. One node near the top is showing a slight bulb at the base of the normal female hairs. Other nodes are all normal female looking. Plant is four weeks into 12/12 and is 33" tall. Little background on the genetics of this plant. About...

I never thought of that before. I do keep two fans on them all the time for respiration, stem strengthening and to discourage the mites. Very good suggestion. Thanks.

Thanks, I'm just paranoid about those things getting started. Hoped it was not obvious bugs.

This is one week into 12/12.

I am having a few leaves like this on otherwise healthy plant. Hope it's not the dreaded spider mites.

I don't dispute that the plant will survive but does it thrive and is it robust or does it just get by? There are no timed release nutrients in this soil that I am aware of. I use FFOF soil and supplement it with the Fox Farms basic trio at alternate waterings throughout the grow. I adhere...

I am surprised that no one has challenged this. There is no way that FFOF soil comes with enough nutrients to last the hundred days (more or less) that it takes to finish a plant. Fox Farms does not even make that claim. If it started out that hot it would kill your seedlings. There is some...

Thanks for your prompt response. I thought that would be the case but needed some clarification. This is a great thread and I have nothing but respect for your experience. No lollipopping here and I no longer qualify for any type of a youth group. I saw that thread. Can't understand why...

UB, I have five plants that I am going to top for 4 colas. I have already topped three (killed me to remove the top 2/3 of the plant) but I am convinced that this is the way to go. My immediate question is regarding one plant that has the bottom node right on top of the cotyledons. It is...

You could very well be right. I just found it amusing. Perhaps fdd will opine on this. He would probably know.

Hello all. I just wanted to post this link for anyone who has not seen it. I haven't been spending much time in this Toke & Talk so this might have been posted before. California is far more progressive than where I live. Click here

I have read a lot but only 4 weeks into my first project. I think you have it wrong on the lighting. Optimal lighting would be mh for veg and hps for flowering. I'm no expert but that is what I have read.

I don't know, this might be old news here. My wife discovered this 90 minute video that I found to be both informative and entertaining. Definitely worth a watch if you have not seen it. It is done by an ex-drug interdiction officer and offers some good advice and and insight as to how law...

What I did was get some insulation to wrap around the fan. I used five inch framing insulation that is 16" wide and on a 24' roll. About 12$ at Lowes. I only used about 8' of it but I suppose you could use it all. Rig an exhaust extension where the surround is open insulation. It made the...

Sounds good. I haven't even started my garden yet, just getting tooled up. I plan to vent my enclosed 600 with the 440 after the plants show some growth. I hope that venting 440 cfm into my attic will take care of the odor without any carbon filter. I might be wrong. Plan to start with 10...
