    clones taking long to root - overfed mother?

    I am curious whether overfeeding a mother can lead to clones taking longer to root. I've got a plant that was overfed and I've been watering it with ph'd RO water for like a month, it hasn't started to yellow or look unhealthy at all yet, but when I water I am not doing the usual 20% drainage...

    Winter Growing / Humidity & Temp

    Unfortunately there's not much I can do to get the humidity higher, I put a humidifier in the room and ran it for days and could only ever get the humidity from 16% up to 17%. If I shut down the ventilation fans then the humidifier will keep it more humid but then it gets way too hot...

    Smoking Devices

    I'll throw this in. I smoked weed for years through every method available. Joints, pipes, (metal, wood, or glass), bongs, gravity bongs, etc etc... you name it. When the 'vaping' craze hit I tried it a bunch of times but was never really satisfied. I just felt like vaping never gave me a...

    What 'ORIGINAL' things do you do to your growing plants

    actually as I remember it, they had 3 greenhouses: one with silence, one with a soundtrack playing of a person talking in a positive, uplifting manner, and one with a soundtrack of a person yelling angry, negative stuff. Both greenhouses with a soundtrack playing showed more vigorous growth...

    What 'ORIGINAL' things do you do to your growing plants

    I have a radio in my grow room playing 24/7... under the theory that music/voices speaking will stimulate growth. I have no idea if it works or not, but I don't mind a little music while I'm working in there anyway. It is currently tuned to a Christmas music station :)

    Winter Growing / Humidity & Temp

    My flowering room stays at 16% during lights on, around 22% with lights off. I'm a noob so all I can really say is that I hope that's not too low... but I've got some experienced grower friends here in CO who say it shouldn't be a problem...

    Why do you grow ?

    I'm on my very first grow, so my answer may change over time, but I started growing in order to save money... It will take a little while to break even, I went a little overboard with equipment and startup costs and probably have much more 'capacity' than I really need, but I'm OK with it - I...

    Humidity and it's importance in the grow room.

    Here in the high altitude of Colorado I struggle with keeping humidity high enough. If I run a humidifier 24/7 in my veg room I can get humidity as high as 70% but in my flowering room I'm lucky to see 25%. Mostly stays at 22% during lights out, 16% when lights are on...

    vegging time question - first grow

    Hi all, I'm just curious about how long people here veg their plants before switching to 12/12 and if there is such a thing as "too long". This is my first grow and I obtained 3 clones of a strain called Channel+ from a local dispensary and after getting them home I noticed they were dated...

    Canna Terra - nutrient guide from the website

    So if I understand you correctly, you go with the "normal" feeding schedule but in the beginning you use 1/3 of the given values, and eventually work your way up to the values given (but no higher). ? Over how much time do you work up to full strength?

    Canna Terra - nutrient guide from the website

    Anyone have experiencing using the Canna Terra line of nutrients, and the grow guide on their website? They have 3 options... "light feeding", "normal feeding" and "heavy feeding". I have 3 lil' clones going and as an experimenter by nature I am thinking about trying 1 of each style, but...

    Thinkin' about using tap water (dechlorinated). discuss...

    Yeah I am dechlorinating, was just responding to those who said they don't worry about doing so.

    I'm using pro mix HP, I'm concerned about the effect of the chlorine on the mycorrhizae.

    :) So.... a little background as I am a noob poster and nobody knows me :) I am about 30 days into my first grow. I have 3 plants going right now, Channel+ variety, under a 600w MH light right now. I started them under fluorescent lights (4x40w) and today I just transplanted them into 5...

    Help with commercial grow license and such in Colorado

    You might consider looking at Northern Colorado - in the corridor between Loveland and Fort Collins. The community is not quite as friendly - dispensaries are actually banned in the city limits of Loveland and Longmont - but as a result there's not much competition. The few dispensaries that...

    is this nute burn? or a deficiency? or something else? :)

    I am a tinkerer/experimenter by nature - no biggie :)

    is this nute burn? or a deficiency? or something else? :)

    I'm no expert but that looks like too much nitrogen to me... or overwatering (or both)
