    Tin Foil as a Mylar replacement?

    That silvery wrapping paper could be mylar! Is it pretty thin and light shines through it? Sometimes you can find mylar at hobby stores or ace hardwares. Most garden centers or photography supply shops carry it too. I can't comment on tin foil as I have never trie it - but people have used...

    Low PH like 4.5 to 5. But plants look healthy in week 3 of bloom

    Maybe try a gallon of the distilled deep rock see hwo you test in a week after that - if its already at an 8 it might bring you up a nudge without additives.

    Low PH like 4.5 to 5. But plants look healthy in week 3 of bloom

    I only have had to use my pH meter when bringing my water down to a 5.5 for my grodan cubes while cloning. I tested my soil once out of curiosity and it was right at 7. I use distilled deep rock (which their website says is ph 8 ) and foxfarm ocean forest soil and foxfarm nutes (bb, gb, tb)...

    Final DAYS- Pre harvest- poking hole in main stalk?

    Welcome. I would think drilling a hole in the stalk would stress the plant and it would either stunt its growth from the shock and/or direct its energy to repairing its stalk and thus taking away energy from bud production. HOWEVER, it could shock it enough that the plant's go'na think "S***...

    heat stress? or nutrients? no clue need help

    Hey DB! I'd forget walmart this time of year they probably won't have them in stock. Lowes or Home depot will and this is also a great source for lights. HOWEVER, I'd check where your closest local garden center is an go there. They'll have a ph/soil tester for $10 and a smart staff--which...

    Clones from mid-bloom - remove pistils??

    True...I did clip off the lil buds on my clones but not just a pistil or two on the others...mainly cos I wanted to smoke em! I don't see how removing the pistils could hurt though. So if it concerns/annoys you go for it. And yes, in veg they will eventually redden and dry up...no biggie.

    A SMALL but very big problem

    did you soak your rockwool in ph'd 5.5 water? I know you know you burned them with nutes...but for next time be sure to balance the water you soak your cubes in too. Then after you transplant the cubes into soil you can water the cubes a wee bit, keeping the soil dry for a good week. And yeah...

    Should i start 12/12?????????????????? ADVICE PLZZZ

    Not everyone who looks replies 'cos they may not have good advice -- or are reading your thread 'cos they have the same problem. Like the others said -- it is personal preference as to how big you want them and how much space you have. IF it were me, I'd do a little Lst to get that undergrowth...

    Clones from mid-bloom - remove pistils??

    Maybe if there was risk of fertilizing them? I haven't bothered doing this (then again I don't keep males around). Hairs and pistils are the same thing.

    Growing with Low Wattage HIDs

    I agree with Purple, 250w Hid is the smallest I would go - in fact that's exactly what I went with only because heat issues scared me off from the 400w. Have you considered a panel of t5s? You can get a t5 bulb and fixture for $15 or $20 at home depot, and if you're sticking with CFLs try...

    question from noob

    I was skeptical about my plant doubling or even quadrupling in height during the flower stage -- I was naive. Leave a lot of room to flower in, it's awesome!!!

    My plant is light green and not growing well I need your help.

    More info please. how old? is she growing slow or are you getting oddities on your leaves/branches/roots? What's your lighting? How often do you water? Do you use nutes? what size container? soil or hydro?

    Purple Branches/Slightly yellowing leaves

    She looks pretty healthy to me. But Jealous is right - its time for some nutes if you haven't started any yet. I prefer foxfarm, "big bloom" and "grow big" during vegetative growth. Lighting, heat and humidity decent?

    How much water do you use?

    anyway you could budget in a grand for a solar powered generator? Those electric company jerks might start to get suspicious and it would save you on your monthly bill all the same. As for the water question: I am growing three - all three in 3 gallon pots sharing a 250w light. With my...
