    My iPad won't expand your pics but from what I see you're doing ok. Should be fine to go ahead and top/prune, especially your bigger one.

    Myth busters - the real truth on CO2 in indoor grows

    The problem without ac is that you'll be venting out the co2 faster than you can add it, ac let's you stop venting.

    Myth busters - the real truth on CO2 in indoor grows

    It depends on the size of the tent and whether or not you're venting it. If venting, there is no way to make added co2 work. You need to have a closed system with air conditioning to keep it cool. No other way to use co2 in an attic in the summer. My ingredients were for a 384 cubic foot...

    Myth busters - the real truth on CO2 in indoor grows

    Yes, you can have too much but it would take a lot of sugar/yeast to get there.

    HELP! First time grow. need help.

    you really need to scrounge around for a bigger container, it doesn't have to be a flower pot. Three or five gallon paint buckets do well. Even a small box. You can find something useful behind a home depot in ten minutes.

    Please Help with Flowering!!!!

    Those are ok for flowering but 2700k is best. And you'll need a lot more for flowering - three per plant of the same wattage you're using (those are not 100 watt bulbs by the way, they are 23 watt bulbs with the equivalent light of a 100 watt incandescent bulb.)

    Fuck summer heat !!

    A portable ac is worthless unless you vent it very carefully. Even the radiant heat coming off the exhaust hose is too much for the unit to handle, much less if you have any leaks. You need to make the exhaust as short as possible - no longer than 5 feet - even if you need to cut new exhaust...

    cfl light penetration

    ok, didn't get that the first time around. Not sure you're going to see the benefit if your area is so crowded it's hard to keep a 2 inch window. But it's certainly worth a try. Glass would be best but polycabonate is used in applications like solar panels.

    nitrogen during flowering stage

    Try foilar feeding - take a 1/4 strength solution and spray it on your fan leaves daily. They'll improve in a couple of days.

    Will these CFLs do ?

    Those are 23 actual watt lights and are good enough for veg but you'll need more light than that at 2700k for flowering

    HELP! First time grow. need help.

    You need a larger pot and make sure it has holes in the bottom. Water until some comes out the bottom, then allow to dry a couple of inches down. You'll end up watering every four days or so.

    Harvesting Seed...

    You can grow any plant indoors although bigger ones will need to be trained to stay short.

    Plant emergency!!! Please help me !

    You have no control over whether they are male or female. A bent/partially broken stem will typically not kill your plant although it may slow down growing for awhile.

    Hybrid question. More of a theory thing.. But I NEED an answer please!

    Well as everyone here knows I am no botany expert but if it works like in animals the pollen is not all of a single genetic type but instead has many different dna mixes with similar characteristics, same for the female plants. So not only will you get something unique for a female x and pollen...
