Or is it too late? Like say I have a plant that's just about to be harvested....it has amber trichs, orange receded hairs, fat buds, etc...it's a sinsemilla plant. If it comes into contact with pollen from a male at this point...will it matter ?

anyone know?

Here's a quick version of my story. I grew 5 plants in my closet for 2 months, changed the lighting to 12/12, then threw out 2 males when they started to show balls. Of my 3 remaining females, one started showing balls on only ONE of it's colas... so I cut that bud off, and watched. No more...

by the way this grow is 100% fluorescent. I couldn't afford expensive things like HPS lights, ventilation, etc...so I decided I would VEg and Flower with fluoros. I am convinced HPS lights work better for flowering, as that is the consensus here...but I also learned that you can mae it work...

UGH - sorry all I have are Iphone pics. Youre going to laugh at my high tech iphone zoom lens I'm using to photograph my buds. :spew: Anyway, after 2 months, when the nodes began to alternate (learned that here...look it up) I switched the lighting from 24/7 ON to 12hrs on/ 12hrs off. And I...

Okay, so I vegged for about a month and a half when I realized, damn these plants are getting tall! Only about a foot tall, but they were definitely PLANTS and not seedlings or sprouts any more! At 1.5 months I started learning about topping, LSTing, and FIMing plants...all here at RIU.org. I...

pSome concerns I had with my CLOSET grow: 1. I did nothing to ventilate the closet. It was too expensive for me, so all I did was keep the closet door closed when I was gone, and open when I was home. My babies were fine. 2. My plant started turning yellow in the lower leaves and stem before I...

GET A $8 soil moisture/Ph/light meter from Home Depot. it will tell you the Ph and soil moisture under the soil...it's a good buy, and quite necessary. Also get a $10 digital thermometer with humidity gauge. also, necessary! Once you have planted the seeds, the most important thing I learned to...

This thread is designed to encourage newbies and ease any worries you may have as a first-time herb grower. I am about to harvest my first grow ever! I planted 5 seeds in soil, in my closet 3 months ago, and OMG they are looking so good.(imo) But since there are so many little things Ive...

these plants are all 29 days old, from seed. do they look to be growing healthily? Would you expect them to look bigger at 29 days of Veg? Taller? coat-closet grow Temps are 80-85 F. Humidity fluctuates between 30%-60% when I'm home no C02 supplemented, just a cracked door about 15k lumens of...

And yeah I know they're not ready for flowering yet.... also, I don't have a ventilation set-up and will need to start dealing with odor issues soon. any closet-size suggestions for getting rid of the smell? And does ONA gel really make ur harvest smell like a urinal cake? :shock:

So I grabbed some bagseeds out of some dirt weed. Planted the seeds 29 days ago, and here's what I got: (crappy phone pic) A few details: I got about 7 26-Watt CFL's and one 24" T5-High Output Fluoro. (5k lumens) So I have about 15k-18k lumens on my girls. All were planted the same day...

hey there. u said my stems look dark. Is that bad?

They're planted in some organic soil, not Miracle Gro or Scotts....and about 1/3 Perlite so they drain well. What's a dark stem indicate?

This plant has gotten watered with a Ph of 7.5-8 since it sprouted. I lowered it to 6.5ish last night, and all of a sudden it has brown spots today. Should I continue to use the Ph adjusted (6.5)water? Or stick with the (7.5-8)water it was using before the spots showed up? it's a dark drown...
