    Anybody ever get sad after cutting down first?

    I totally know how you feel. I sprouted two seeds in very early May and they both turned out to be female. I nursed them all the way until the end of October up until a few days ago. I knew them too. I watched them grow from a tiny seed until they were almost twice my height! I'd go out every...

    Harvesting under a full moon

    I call shenanigans on anything that involves the moon... If anything, harvesting during a full moon would be bad because people will be able to see you better. A comment was made about THC being more 'active' in the morning. Shenanigans on that too. What, the plant breaks down the THC as the...

    Greenhouse Growing???

    Growing outdoors is awesome. I've never grown inside, so I can't really comment and say it's easier. However, I've never had to worry about drawing too much power for lights, worried about stinking up my house, or bothered with how many lights to use. Outside, everything's done for you. All...

    I need some expertise...

    Let's just say there's no way for me to head East without getting damp and North Atlanticy :bigjoint: They're in a greenhouse so they don't get too cold at night. But it's been foggy as fuck and damp for WEEKS. It's an invitation for bud rot and mold. I'm working on a selective harvest...

    I need some expertise...

    I don't know what the fuck is up with my city, but there's no dehumidifier in the whole town! I've been looking EVERYWHERE for one :p I just harvested some of the buds that had some rot. I cut out the rotted bits and man... they smell soooo sweet. It's like Juicy Fruit!

    Hermaphrodite Females and Seeds

    Cloning is better because there's less risk of non-germination and damping off of seedlings. Also, even when using 'feminized' seeds, there's still the chance of germinating a male plant -- not the case when you're cloning a female. Feminized seeds are a good bet for someone like myself who...

    just got baked off my own pot for the first time!!!

    This biggest plus for me is that I know the stuff I'm smoking isn't laced with baking soda or worse... Pot is one thing, but when it's laced with ketamine or PCP it's another. Not that I have anything against other drugs. They're just not my thing. Congrats, brother!

    Plant Disaster

    I've done this before with plants in grow chambers (not Cannabis sp.). THe leaves dry out and wilt and the intense light from the lamps desiccates the leaves turning them this weird papery translucent black/dark-green. If there's not too many of those leaves, you can probably trim them off...

    I need some expertise...

    I'd be embarrassed :p They look like they've been abused. The air is so humid in there that a lot of the leaves have turned yellow and started to die :-(. There's like 7 or 8 nice colas on each plant though. I don't smoke a lot (yet, haha) so I imagine it will last me until the end of next...

    I need some expertise...

    I'd love to take them inside but they're both the size of small cars :leaf: I think what I will do is harvest a few of the 'at risk' branches and leave the rest to mature normally. That way I'll have some insurance, if you will. I'd like to at least have some dope for Halloween and Christmas...

    I need some expertise...

    Keeping it warm isn't hard. With my space heater on at night, it won't go below about 14C. The problem is, when it's that warm and the door and window are closed, it gets very humid. The walls drip with condensation.

    I dont see how you guys do it

    Ahhh.. C'mon. Bubbles would be wayyy cooler than that. Come to think of it, that's more like something Lahey would say... :-P

    I need some expertise...

    Anyone? I'm trying to figure if it's better to harvest now when the plant isn't ready or risk waiting and face bud rot problems. Does anyone think there'd be much difference in potency between now and when it's fully matured judging by the pictures?

    getting cold quick is there enough time for ww to finish in rhode island

    I hear ya man. I'm in Atlantic Canada too. It sucks this summer has been absolute bullshit. I'm starting to get bud rot and from what I can tell, the weather's not about to get much better... forecasting rain, drizzle, and fog until Sunday.

    I need some expertise...

    Ok, so this year's growing season has been shit for all crops in my region. The potatoes growing outside and next to the greenhouse have finished two weeks ago and now both my plants are starting to turn yellow and die. I've tried to keep the temp warm at night in the greenhouse because it's...

    Why does my plant die and resurrect itself?

    It's normal. It's like plants going to sleep. Check the youtube video. It's pretty fun!

    Hermaphrodite Females and Seeds

    To produce feminized seeds, the breeder takes a female plant and forces it to turn hermaphrodite through some environmental or hormonal method. The plant is self-pollinated, and the resultant seeds express a strong female bias. This article shows a study done on Urtica dioica (Stinging nettle).

    watering with root hormone

    Don't mess with your plant's hormones: it definitely knows what it's doing and has been good at it for thousands of years. Speaking from experience where I used high concentration IBA powder, roots grew from the stem and branches of the saplings. That's not too great... Also, from Wikipedia...
