    Something is eating my seedlings :(

    So this is my first time actively re-using soil for an indoor grow which i did by mixing in ~1/3 by volume new compost from my composter. Notably there are lots of critters in my 5 gal container (millipedes, little flys and pill bugs) and I grow indoors. I've had a lot of issues getting my...

    In situ compost? [revitalizing soil] Add amendments to my compost?

    So I grow organic (try to just topdress ammendments) in a 5 gal soil for my scrog grows. From my understanding the soil is depleted by the end of a grow and since the volume of soil is pretty low I can't really have a perpetual soil. At the moment I just toss the soil in an empty composter...

    Example Top Dress Only Program?

    OK this is awesome and wildly making me wish I was using some 30gal pots. Your grow is my utopia of laziness. I thought I was wildly the laziest person here :P I own the blumat already though, I got it so in the event of a flood it was limited, and my 10 gal resevoir wouldn't make toooo much of...

    Example Top Dress Only Program?

    So I'm down to have a whole living soil /mulch thing going on. I have 5 gal pots though and I remember when I started my first grow people were saying you had to have a pretty massive soil mass to pull it off (100+ gal to my memory). but yeah I have no decaying plant matter, and my 5 gal pots...

    Example Top Dress Only Program?

    Hello sure thing image attached :) As a whole, my leaves turn yellow and falloff wayyyy too fast, plus any remaining leaves are kindof yellow (this is ~2 weeks from harvest, I lollipopped the plant at one point...then the leaves kept falling off and there aren't many leaves left). The image...

    TopDress + Blumat?

    So I have a blumat system and I top dress my plants primarily. Does topdressing work with bluemat based plants? In my head it does since the roots come up to the top of the soil thus eating the topdressing, but I'm not sure I'm doing something sane. Maybe topdressing only works with...

    Example Top Dress Only Program?

    Hello! I grow organic and on my last grow tried to go top dress only (no teas) but my plants weren't very happy. (for reference I start with a subcoolesque soil recipe from buildasoil) Does anyone follow a topdress only routine or know one I can copy as a starting point? I don't enjoy making...

    Is this WPM in my buds?

    So I did find a bud that was much more PM-y. It's the biggest cola :( It looks like where the trichromes are on the sugar leaves, are just way more white than they should be. I'm thinking I could just harvest now, toss this bud (pictured), then I wash the buds whenever I do harvest just to be...

    Is this WPM in my buds?

    I had some issues with WPM in this grow. As a whole I have it under control I think (it's still in the tent but pretty minimal) but I'm starting to see what I think is WPM on the sugar leaves of my bud. see Image. Are those trichromes or WPM? It seems too white and fluffy to be trichs to me...

    Over dried? Now what?

    Ok now I'm confused When i seal up a jar after airing it out at 40% room humidity. Within a few hours it's up to ~ 61%. But if i leave the jar closed for days it doesn't go any higher :/ Does that mean something?

    Over dried? Now what?

    So how do I know if this is working? At the moment, since I have put the damp cloth in each jar by now, all the buds have some give to them. I burb the jars 1x / day and they tend to sit at ~60%RH. They smell weird. Not ammonia (as in molding) but not like my old dealers house smelled either...

    Over dried? Now what?

    So I'm not sure what is supposed to feel like at 62%. I did the damp towel in the jar for 12 hrs (not touching any buds) and now the buds feel springy and it stays well above 50%rh. When I poke the buds in the jar I don't hear crunching noises now either Jars i didn't do that to are the same as...

    Over dried? Now what?

    So I just finished drying my flower in my grow tent for 1 week after trimming off the biggest fan leaves. Drying setup: AC infinity fan was set to turn on at 40% RH and go fast at 50% RH...I assume RH was 40% most of the time. My tent circulation fan was at medium inside the 2x4 tent. How dry...

    Wk 14 - Still not amber + new pistels

    I was using botanicare flowering nutes at the 'medium flowering level'. I was trying to grow in super soil but then the grow went way too long and it started to run out of juice. I ended up with a 10 week veg too since I was doing SCRoG but not terribly efficiently. I cut them down, as...

    Wk 14 - Still not amber + new pistels

    So I have a plant that I flipped to 12-12 flower 14 weeks ago, then 2 weeks ago I flipped them to 10(on)-14(off) hours to try to hurry them along. Its still producing new white pistels and the trichromes aren't cloudy or amber yet. Setup: I have 2 plants in a 2x4 with a 240W QB, which are at...

    Lower Yellow leaves with brown tips - 4 week flower

    Oh damn. I looked up how much to add and I couldn't find anything so I thought I was starting easy! I'd also read it's slow release so I just did the 1 dose on day 1 of flower. Maybe that's stupid too?? Nitrogen addition it is! I thought I was doing well since I was mostly using kelp and worm...

    Are these plants small? Are they healthy?
