What light are you flowering under? More light is one way to increase yields. If youre using under 600w HPS, I would consider more light. Canopy control. Ensuring that the available light is used efficiently. Manipulationg the plant to create more flower sites (Topping, FIMing...

Plants in the north east start flowering in August and finish in October. This is the plant following the natural photoperiods. The longer nights signal it to flower. As long as it is an 8-10 week strain, I dont see why it wouldnt flower just fine. Planting late in the year only means youll...

What is your setup? What are those lights? T8 tubes? Blacklights? I cant tell how big they are. How big is that box? Temps? Soil? Air circulation? From what I see: ditch those purple lights and just use regular "daylight" tubes. The one on the bottom is doing zero for your plants. Put it on...

That white substance is fine. It is not mold. It is probably harmless fungi. I have noticed something like this on plugs and the top of coco. Mold wont grow in well lit areas and salt buildup happens at the bottom of the pot. A sterile environment is not needed esp when you add bacteria to the...

Nobody told you what to do in under an hour? WTF? The nerve.... The dark period is what indices and promotes flowering. 12 hours of darkness is the norm. Don't interrupt the dark period and you'll be fine. Set your timer to shut the light off around the same time it gets dark. It will probably...

Next grow, let one of the females go extra long in flowering. Usually, she will develop "naners" tucked into lower buds. You can pluck one, open it up and paint the pollen onto the stigma of a female flower. You could even just let her self pollinate. I usually find a few "naners" at harvest...

Why would "bag seeds" be any different from expensive breeder seeds? If you find a seed in a bag of high quality stuff, that seed will be the same plant. Most of the expensive popular strains came from seed found in a bag. It would seem that if you find a single seed in a bag, it was...

That is much too little info for a diagnosis. Different nutrient issues show up at different points on the plant. Mobile nutrients will show up in older leaves first and vice versa. Impossible to say though. My leg hurts. Can someone tell me why?

without even being able to see it, I am sure its not a copper deficiency.

RO water is usually used when growing hydroponically. It gives you complete control of what you're plants are getting. Reverse osmosis removes the minerals from the water. Where did you read it is a "must" for organic growing? You should have an idea of whats in your tap water and its ppm/EC...

You can but why? Are you growing "hempy" style?

I think a 400w HPS is plenty for that area. A 600w HPS in a 2x2 area is a bit overkill IMO

I keep my cuttings in the cloner off to the side in my veg room. They get 18/6 of indirect light. Cuts really do not need much light as you want roots not new growth. I wouldnt run intervals, just 18/6 and they dont have to be near direct light.

Molases does not add bulk or flavor to the buds. This is a bit of conjecture that just gets repeated. Molasses is used to feed the soil bacteria which it turn can make for a healthier root zone. IMO, it is not necessary for a plant grown indoors with the proper environment and nutrients. As for...

Cutting from flowering mothers take longer to root but will root nonetheless. They will also produce odd looking growth at first but will grow to become branchy monsters. I would keep flowering cuts under 24/0 of weak light to bring them out of flowering.

I have used cloning gels, superthrive, H202, low doses of nutrients and plain tap water. Plain tap water works just as well without all the additives and makes things simple. I am all about keeping it simple. Try a side by side if you can.

You're in CA and you harvested already?

You want to find the point where you get maximum footprint coverage and maximum light intensity. It doenst make sense to put a light right on top of the plants and lose coverage on the perimeter. It also doesn't make sense to put high for maximum coverage and losing all the intensity. The...

That doesnt sound as basic as possible. Put the seed in dirt and let it grow. If you want, you can soak it in water for 12 hrs before planting to speed up germination. Don't let the tap root emerge before you plant it. The dome on top is unnecessary. Those temps are OK for adult cannabis but...

any cannabis strain is to easy to grow if you understand basic plant biology and provide the proper environment. They will also get you high.
