    Funny looking little plant.

    I experienced your problem myself, in that plants began flowering way early. I was told to let them grow and as season progresses they would revert back to veg. Also, if they don't revert, just harvest buds as they mature, and plant will continue to produce more buds as long as season permits...

    BCSEEDS.com

    I saw their site when I was ordering my seeds, but what can I say I went with the tried and true reliable Amsterdam seed bank. Cost was reasonable especially considering that purchase of ten seeds gets you 20 additional seeds for free. My results thus far ( started 18 seeds ) I got three males...

    Acclimation "Hardening off" Techniques

    I am very familiar as well with hardening techniques. In the cases where plants are started exclusively with artificial light ( have to do that here in Colorado as season is barely long enough, and plants do very well with when they have a jump on the season ) What I do is grow under lights...

    First time bag seed

    You can find a wealth of information on this site as well as many others. To answer your question, yes from the time plant emerges it is ready for veg stage. I would start with 18/6 and see what happens. I don't know about heat concerns with CFLs as I use LEDs which throw almost no heat at all...

    Problems @ Home

    Don't be so hard on yourself man. Though I didn't do B&Es as a kid, I was into enough trouble that I could have been sent up for years if I had been caught. I come from a good and upstanding family and got everything I could possibly want, but then fell in with a bad crowd. Started dealing pot...

    Check out the close intermodal growth under LEDs

    I failed to mention two very important considerations on the size of these plants. I ordered LEDs with assurance that I would get them in 2-5 days from time I ordered. Made order, planted seeds, and lights were a full month late coming. So I had to tide them over using a tiny full spectrum...

    How long do you cook?

    I found a very different technique in an article somewhere ( always doing research ) which supposedly is the best way to get maximum THC into your butter. This technique calls for you to boil marijuana in water and add a stick of butter directly to the water. As THC is fat soluble it will...

    Too early to put out?

    Your primary concerns are; Is it still freezing at night? Have your plants been hardened to go outside? To harden your plants, you start by putting them in direct sunlight for one hour, and then double the time outside until plants are out all day. After two or three days outside, and no night...

    Five myths about immigration

    Denofearth69 worked hard, saved up, and was able to start a very successful masonry company doing custom stone work for Telluride Colorado's wealthy elite. Denofearth69, not some money grubbing jerk, hires and pays LEGAL immigrants very well, and gets very good work from them in return. Along...

    Sorry they didn't come through. I do have posts with same pics these lights are truly the wave of the future and I predict will only get better. If you need any help regarding LEDs just let me know. I am serious fan of these little under appreciated lights. I admit, they look very unimpressive...

    this rare or what!!!!!

    I had a tri-leaf once myself. Having grown hundreds of plants, mostly outdoors, I can say definitely that tri-leafs are very rare indeed, and in the case of the one I had, I was lucky enough to have it be a female, and it was way productive indeed. I do have to agree with cOrd in that I don't...

    How I'd Grow if I Grew.

    OK my friend, I have become an absolute LED enthusiast. These wonderful little lights create almost no heat, require no ballast, and are very electricity frugal. I know there is a lot of negative press about LEDs, but check out my results for yourself. These pics are of plants that are just shy...

    Help on a 4x4x6 grow room

    I have been having wonderful success with my new LEDs. My space is larger, 10 X10 X 12, but as I am in Colorado and can only legally grow six plants, LEDs have been working beautifully with some important considerations. #1 LEDs heat is so nonexistent that I have had to place a space heater in...

    Check out the close intermodal growth under LEDs

    For those considering LEDs I wanted to share my own experiences. First of all, what you may have heard regarding limited foot print of LEDs, I would like to point out that, as LEDs are positioned higher than traditional light sources, you will still get good coverage. I use 2-120W LED panels...

    What is the cheapest way to get co2 for your plants?

    I am lucky enough to have a setup which allows me to introduce fresh air constantly. I do, however, supplement my CO2 by placing topless beer cans half full of hot water next to each plant and dropping chunks of dry ice in them. looks pretty cool when plants are completely engulfed in thick fog...

    what are my chances.

    Punk is right, hermies produce hermie seeds. The occasional good seed found in quality sinsemilla marijuanas are produced when an otherwise female plant, coming to the end of its reproductive cycle will throw off only a few male flowers in an attempt to fertilize itself. These flowers go...

    3 weeks old should i dose them with some nutes?

    First I would advise you to not fertilize until codaledun leaves ( those first two little round ones ) have shriveled, as they provide for your plant in early stages of life and no fert is needed until they are gone. secondly I wouldn't risk using a fertilizer that lacks mixing instructions, but...

    Would appreciate some experienced advice RE: Nutrient Burns & Leacching

    You don't mention what your growth medium is. If you look at my posts I am an avid organic farmer, but this is my first foray into indoor grows. If you decide to go organic, it is much easier to avoid nute burns. If you are growing in soil, just keep giving deep drinks of water and introduce no...

    OK all you urine haters check this out!

    Again I must point out that in using urine, you must dilute to avoid burn and the Ph thing. I started with soil with Ph of 7 and I use urine ( during veg stage ) every other watering. My plants will be going 12/12 next friday, and soil tests at Ph 6.75 so as long as it is diluted properly it has...
