    4 weeks, no triches

    Hey, I'm just wondering if anybody else grew strains that had no trichome formation at week 4? I was growing some free seeds I got years ago. I'm very used to 8-9 week flowering times, and with all of those, by week 3, you start seeing triches. These buds are so slow growing that I would...

    Did i top to early?

    Hi there, If your reason for pinching off the tops on young seedlings is to gain more bud sites in the end, you're better off waiting until its bigger. Instead of cutting it, pinch the stalk in areas you want it to bend without severing it, let it droop there and recover...it will spread out...

    Is this a male

    You could very likely have a pollinated plant, likely self pollinated (hermie). As mentioned above, you can remove a piece to see if a seed is forming. By the way, what you're calling a calyx is actually called a bract. The calyx requires a microscope to see and is nothing more than a thin...

    Hermie hermie hermie

    It's a genetic thing because so many pollen chuckers call themselves growers without understanding how dominant and recessive genes work. You can also partly blame our over-hybridization of the species as a whole.

    So I broke my roots....

    The roots will recover quickly, but you may want to diffuse the light for a little bit until she perks up.

    Making my plant smaller.

    Howdy, Keep in mind, growing from seed will produce bigger plants because of the time needed to reach maturity, but the clones from those plants can be kept smaller because you can decide when you want to start flowering. (not feasible with autos) At that point, size depends on how much...

    Hermie... Can it be?

    Stop it. That's not male anatomy. That's a bract. Female. It's all good.

    First grow, any idea what could cause this leaf damage?

    CalMag can do that, and so can Phosphate and Potash, two of the three NPK's. Anytime I get that, I just scale back on my feeding to zero for a while, since most nutes are premixed in some ratio anyway, i don't spend too much effort figuring out which specific one, ya know?

    do these look good

    Hey there, As for any constructive advice, I may suggest starting them in smaller containers. Fill in more soil so they're not sitting so low, too. But that's 'next time' stuff.

    Deficency, Ph Issue, or Both?

    If this is a wide spread problem on your plant(s) then I'd say it looks like Nitrogen isn't getting to the plant. If you're running some heavy wattage lamps, 1k or even 600, you need to make sure and give them consistent feedings. A little bit, all the time, rather than a lot every once in a...

    Mid to upper leaves curling inward like tubes?

    Howdy, I'm not so sure about the salt thing, I know it's discussed and recommended by some, I'm not sold on it. 1/2 a teaspoon(yikes)? Seems a bit much for two plants to absorb. Overall, the problem isn't very obvious, so your solution also will be uncommon. If it were a nitrogen...

    Help - black spots on leaves

    It's not so simple, you likely have a ph problem in your soil. Feeding it more won't change this. You need to correct your ph, IMHO.

    need ventalation help

    The bottom line is that you'll need a real inline fan, not the home depot booster fans. They have terrible motors in them and can fail while you're at work and you'll come home to a 110 degree room. Inside your grow area, the carbon filter is hooked to the fan...fan pulls from the filter and...

    breathing in mold spores

    There's literally thousands of molds that occur naturally. Many of those are found in homes and only about 7-8 of them pose any real health threat to otherwise healthy people. These strains of hazardous molds pop up on foreclosure homes that weren't winterized and had broken pipes, flooding...

    EARLY SEXING SERVICE

    The company advertising on ROI for the early sexing service charges $25 per plant to know if it's male or female. It can be done as early as two weeks after germ....shit I'd just wait the extra three weeks and find out for free. Could you imagine, in that rare case you get 4 out of 4...

    Wrinkly new growth

    Especially this time of year, if you live in a cold area, running a furnace drys out the air even more. I had a recent reminder of this effect, it was a gentle but direct breeze, and the next morning a few leaves were crispy. Totally healthy plant, otherwise. Your plant looks fine to me too.

    HELP! Having some problems with my plants.

    My honest and most friendly advice to you, If you consider yourself a neophyte to growing, I may suggest starting with a dirt grow. Although seductive theoretically, hydroponic growing and the like require a solid base of knowledge and experience. Besides, all you really want is some nice bud...

    leaf drooping/taco-ing

    You were smart to get it out of there. Seedlings (versus clones) need more root space, as they grow more vigorously than a cloned version. I'll echo someone else's opinion: Looks over watered. But you can avoid that by using a larger container, earlier.

    Leaves are dying

    Probably not light related. The middle photo looks like some type of toxicity or perhaps signs of alkaline soil(ph is too high). The outer photos, the light is hard to see true color, and they're pretty far gone already to know with any certainty. If it were light burn, the leaves closest to...
