    PH Perfect? More like PH Pain in the A$$

    This was my main concern. Not the price, but the chemistry of the solution. I was not sure if the nutrients would degrade with too much buffer.

    PH Perfect? More like PH Pain in the A$$

    I do mix full strength... It doesn't burn too bad, usually just the tiniest bit of the tips get a bit burned, but I kinda like pushing the limits. I am not using RO, but I am off-gassing 24 hours prior to mixing.

    PH Perfect? More like PH Pain in the A$$

    For my most recent grow, I had to switch to the "PH Perfect" Sensi 2-part from the standard Sensi 2-part. My experience has been less than pleased. It seems that the PH wants to stay put now, but at 6.5.... With the standard stuff I might have to add about 1tbsp of ph down to bring my res to...

    ---soil vs hydro battle---

    You can get RAPID and KILLER results from either... It really depends on personal preference. From what little experience I have dealing with other growers, it really boils down to which one your personality-type blends better with, and which one you have more of a knack for. I am not saying...

    My Hash-Wine experiment.... (I was high, had an idea, and ran with it)

    I actually started this process on Sunday, and wrote this in notepad for copy/paste purposes. Here is a picture of a balloon inflated on one of the bottles... It's working!: I know the pic is blurry, but I got excited and decided a phone pic was good enough.

    My Hash-Wine experiment.... (I was high, had an idea, and ran with it)

    So, I made bubble-hash with a 3 bag set, and the water was still quite full of goodies. I didn't really feel like filtering further, so I decided to do the following: To the 4 Gallons of Hashy-Water I added: 4 Concentrated Juice Mixes (from the grocer's freezer) 1 5lb bag of sugar (about 10...

    1 plant out of 3 looking sick (Hydroponics)

    One more bump... Sorry, I would just like a little more input before I rush the immature plants through.

    1 plant out of 3 looking sick (Hydroponics)

    Bump... Should I flush even though the trichomes aren't ready on the other plants in the tray?

    1 plant out of 3 looking sick (Hydroponics)

    I was hesitant to flush yet because the trichomes are only now becoming cloudy. The other plant still has mostly crystal clear trichomes. Does flushing cause the trichomes to mature faster?

    1 plant out of 3 looking sick (Hydroponics)

    Yeah, I am pretty far in (8 weeks). I was thinking it might be finishing earlier than the others as well, but wasn't sure. I was planning on running another 2 weeks of nutes and then flush, but this one might get chopped a little early, I guess. I guess its time to figure out a way to flush this...

    1 plant out of 3 looking sick (Hydroponics)

    It is the same distance from the drain as the other (healthy) plant. There are two lights in the setup, and everything is pretty symmetrical. There is definitely burn on this plant, but what is so strange is how perky the other plants in the cabin are.

    1 plant out of 3 looking sick (Hydroponics)

    The strain is a cross between Grand Daddy Purple and Larry OG. I did notice that first they lighten up, turn yellow, get purple in the center, then start to crisp and die one finger at a time until the leaf is dead.

    1 plant out of 3 looking sick (Hydroponics)

    I currently have 3 plants started from seed, in a 4x4 flood table, and one of them is turning yellow. The roots look okay, the other two plants look great, just one is looking sick. I am not sure how to approach this as the all of the plants are getting identical feeding time and nutrition. Is...

    Help!!!!

    If you mean that it started to flower, now it appears stalled... In my experience, plant growth comes in waves... It will grow like a summabitch, then kinda stall, then another spurt of growth. How does the plant look overall? If it isn't flowering, is there adequate darkness during sleepy time?

    Video Update (Day 1 of Week 7 in Flower)

    They are all topped by the way. The two outside are Grand Daddy Purple x Larry OG. The shortie in the center is Trainwreck x White Widow.

    Video Update (Day 1 of Week 7 in Flower)

    Its so hard to get an idea of the beauty of these ladies with pics alone. The video is lower quality, but you get the gist. Check the videos in my signature for previous videos of the same grow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uh9MZPQk7_E

    8 weeks in. Going to second week of flowering. have to chop down.

    On second thought, a webcam and a surveillance app doesnt sound like a bad idea either.

    Your roommate is a dick, man. You should log his activity and sue him in small claims just to cause him some hassle. Anyway, a thought on the air pump.... get a low-watt solar kit and lock your door. Solar Kits

    Anyone ever try 9/3 veg, 6/6 flower???

    By the logic you describe, halfing your hours seems like it would double the time required, if you can apply the math that directly (which I doubt). I'm all about experiments, so I say go for it for the sake of science, but I think your conclusion will be that thousands of years of evolution is...
