    Anyone try Airpot-Hempy-Hybrid

    I messed around with Hempy for a couple of grows and enjoyed the simplicity, so I've adapted it to Airpots. I just set 1gallon Airpots inside a 6" tall tray and use 30% vermiculite/70% perlite for medium. I drop clones in the medium with roots all the way to the bottom and just water 2"deep in...

    As of Sept 16 2012 Did any Dispensaries open?

    Not yet, but an article in the Tucson newspaper yesterday said that one was just approved here for all zoning and local regulatory issues and local permits are issued. Supposedly next step is back to the state for final review before opening. At least thats what the local news says.

    Tucson Shop420 busted

    Ummm....what? They aren't dispensaries. They have no license for anything other than their own mmj cards.

    Tucson Patients get raided by DEA?

    I'm a skeptic. Something doesn't sound right. Why would the DEA care about the 25 mile rule or not? You see, the DEA is federal, not state. In the eyes of the DEA it has always been, and still is, 100% ill-fucking-legal no matter where you live or what kind of card you carry. The DEA has...

    Cutting in soil straight into waterfarm with no rockwool

    What I do is to use nothing but a 2" netpot for clones. I stick the cutting all the way through the bottom of the netpot for a secondary support. After they have roots, I simply take the whole thing, even the netpot, and put into my grow medium. Works perfectly, and doesn't disturb any new...

    Az cultivation rights.

    Sheesh. I'm a little dumber for having wasted 10 minutes of my day reading this thread. You should both STFU and get on to something useful. Sorry...just callin it like I see it.

    Heeelp! What's this bug killing my plants?

    That's my only guess too. Only thing is, these look almost black and everyone says Thrips are white or clear/milky colored. The shit spots they leave behind are glossy black and stuck to the leaves almost like it's a part of the leaf pigment. It cannot be washed off. Either way, Pyretherin...

    Heeelp! What's this bug killing my plants?

    I'm assuming some type of Thrip, but everyone says thrips are easy to see. these are not. I'm indoor, in airpots w/perlite & vermiculite. This is the second time I've had plants slowly destroyed by these beasts. I've used Pyrethrem sprays and bombs 3 days apart x 3, I've done the same with a...

    I'm stumped! Would like to know what this is before I lose my whole crop :(

    You figure it out? I have the exact same thing, and it's happened before. Your pics look EXACTLY like mine. I wind up half way through flower and struggle to get to the end with mediocre harvest of something I can only cook with. It's a bug of some sort. Pyrethrum knocks it back, but it...

    HEADLINE: AZ Attorney Gen vows to fight dispensaries....

    I agree, it's great for the mmj community, patients, growers, etc.... I'm digging NOT being within 25 miles of an operating dispensary. I am however irritated on a political level. How is it that something gets voted in, yet the will of the voters is ignored.

    HEADLINE: AZ Attorney Gen vows to fight dispensaries....

    Anybody see this bullshit? This headline was in today's Tucson newspaper the Arizona Daily Star: http://azstarnet.com/news/state-and-regional/arizona-ag-says-he-will-fight-to-keep-pot-dispensaries/article_797e1dce-e021-11e1-ba15-001a4bcf887a.html At this point, I'm just amazed that they won't...

    How close to harvest can I use pyrethren based sprays?

    Yep. That happened to me too, with a previous grow. Pretty much killed all the bugs....and the plants. This is a little different, because I have several different strains. I'm pretty sure I could submerge the Skunk#1 in it. It isn't impacted at all. But, I have a Big Bang that seems to act like...

    Not convinced...I'm skipping the card

    Anyone else feel this way? Look, I've been messing around with a plant or 5 on a personal level for 20 years. Though I have a chronic back injury that I have a prescription for, and could qualify for a card, I'm not sure it's worth the hassle in my situation. I don't exchange it. I don't...

    How close to harvest can I use pyrethren based sprays?

    Title says it all. Got some Thrips wrecking havoc. Been knocking them down the best I can with Fox Farm's "Don't Bug Me" product. Planning harvest in 10 days. Should I stop now? Or can I get a little closer to actual harvest time? Does this stuff degrade quickly?
