    New to Cloning

    Were these clones rooted before you stuck them in the soil? If so, then you can feed them right now, a very weak mix- 1/2 to 1/4 the recommended dosage of whatever nute you are using. However, If they are green and producing new growth, why don't you hold off a few more days? If it ain't...

    When To Start Counting Flowering Weeks?

    That's what he started with. Click over to the last few pages. He didn't add my nutes until week 3 of bloom, and has been using them since. Here.I did some navigating for you: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journal-discussion/341488-barneys-lsd-two-plant-cfl-24.html

    70 w HPS?

    Nah. I know everybody isn't set up for a 1000 watts. I just think shelling out $100+ for a 150 watt bulb is a waste. You can buy 40-60 dollar 400 watt bulbs all day and spend the difference you would spend on that hundred-plus dollar 150 watt bulb on ventilation. I'm not bashing 150 watt...

    When To Start Counting Flowering Weeks?

    The N-P-K numbers are provided too. The focus is the PPM, however. PPM gives you a clearer picture. The label is unfinished, anyway, and yes, it has more than 5 elements. It's a complete fertilizer. The five listed are the ones that everybody should take heed to. All the other 12 or so...

    When To Start Counting Flowering Weeks?

    You mean that it doesn't make sense to know exactly how much ppm of X element you are feeding your plant? Would you rather do the math yourself? Side question: do you prefer automatic or manual transmission?

    When To Start Counting Flowering Weeks?

    I know what you mean. Now I'm REALLY confused, because I've always counted down from the time I switch over to 12/12. But what do I know? I've only grown for twelve years, produced hundreds of pounds of weed, and have a nutrient company. :)

    17 days old great growth but not getting very tall. Thoughts??

    You don't want the plant to stretch by raising the light. The plant will double to triple in height once you start flowering. Height right now isn't as important as the # of growth shoots. Look at it this way: would you rather have a plant that is 12 inches tall with 3 good shoots, or a plant...

    What would you do...? Help..!

    Couldn't have said it better myself. Nice bouncing titties, btw!

    Cant Decide Which Strain

    Faster is better for the impatient types, which includes most of the budding growers out there. AK47 will finish in 56-63 days. Highly recommended for a beginner. It's a hardy & vital plant, tough to screw up, instant gratification + learning experience. Patience comes with experience. It...

    17 days old great growth but not getting very tall. Thoughts??

    It can't get any better than this, matt, unless you summon the Greek Goddess, Demeter. "The stems are very thick and these are getting bushy but not very tall." Hope that's not perceived as a problem....

    Can you grow organics in hydro

    If you add 3 teaspoon per gallon and get 1000 ppm, then it's not 100% organic. It has been supplemented with salt fertilizers. That's not a bad thing, though. But what do I know? I only make fertilizers for a living. :)

    Cant Decide Which Strain

    If this is your first grow, go with the one that takes the least amount of time to flower. You will thank me later.

    70 w HPS?

    Mmmm. I'm a bit baked and lost rt now, and I have no idea how you came to that conclusion. For that price, you are better off with a 250 hps. Just HPS. Forget MH when you are under 400 watts. 600, really. 100+ bucks for 150 watt conversion bulbs? Crazy expensive. Way too impractical for...

    To Flower or Not to Flower, That is the Question

    Take cuttings now. This is the best time. Be sure to remove as much of the lower B.S. that isn't getting any light. You don't want airbuds. The shaded budsites will only waste the plants' energy and resources on keeping them alive, and produce will-o-wispy buds if they don't get enough...

    HELP!!!!Fan leaves dying and i cant figure out whats wrong...

    Thanks, Jaw- I've been screaming that from the mountaintops forever and ever. Cut that lower bullshit off. (but not now- up to the 10th day or so of flowering for best results) Lose those airbuds!

    70 w HPS?

    A 150 watt conversion bulb is impractical at that wattage- that's why you can't really find them. Once you get into the 400-600 watt realm, you'll have the selection. The reason why you see a lot more hps based systems is because you can grow a plant from start to finish with HPS. MH is best...

    70 w HPS?

    I bought 5 1000 watters for about 1100.00 with shipping a few years ago. They were magnetic, and made in China, but I never had any problems with them. They are the generic stainless steel looking models. Honestly, I had way more probs setting up my new digital ballasts. So touchy! Anyway...

    HELP!!!!Fan leaves dying and i cant figure out whats wrong...

    You're killing me! These plants look fucking awesome. I didn't know your "problem" was attached to THAT thread. Sheeeezus. Here's the deal: Your leaf margins are cupping a bit, which could be either one or a combination of things: heat stress, primarily. Overfert is another, and lastly, MG...
