    Light leaks thru gables near roof, for everyone to see! Help

    I don't have the option to build walls around my area, so you can see the light thru the gables in the front of the house at night! I have the timer set for 12midnight to 6pm next day. Can anyone tell me, is there something I can put up to cover that area without blocking the air flow?

    Introducing new sprouts to hps light...

    I will do that. I will use my florescents on them. I like them bushy too. You are right they don't need that much light to begin with. It's too hot right now where my light is set up. I have to move them until the temps cool down anyway. Thanks!

    Introducing new sprouts to hps light...

    1 Week Old Babies. What is Best Light Distance for Hps

    It's been so long I can't remember how close to keep hps light from the tips at this stage. I know I'm good with 1 to 2 ft in distance. Is it the same with young ones of this age? The light is about 2 1/2 feet from them now and they look as though they are starting to stretch.

    Having trouble getting my seeds to sprout..

    I've never had this problem. I've got them up in the attic. It gets hot up there but I've not had a problem before with them growing up there. It's either the temps, or the dirt I've dropped the seeds into. I'm using ocean forest potting soil. Is it too rich to start them out in? Do I need to...

    This is nuts. I have an enclosed area in attic. I planted seeds three weeks ago, for the first few days I kept checking for them to emerge and nothing! I noticed the dirt had been disturbed where I had planted the seeds. The room is enclosed and only I can access the attic opening through my...

    Can trichs in milky stage on sativas take longer than 2 weeks before turning?

    I cut a piece last week and quick dried. It's not strong enough. I don't get it. The buds are filled out so nicely. The strain is from white widow, ice and good bag seed all combined together. It should be way stronger by now. Oh that sucks. It smells and taste really good i just want it to be...

    Can trichs in milky stage on sativas take longer than 2 weeks before turning?

    Mine are 16 weeks into flowering. Looking so close to being ready but trichs are milky and have been for a little over 2 weeks now. Can they take longer to start to change to amber on Sativas? Mine are 50% sativa and 50% indicas so I do want to wait til they get 30% amber. Buds are filled out...

    Do fan leaves usually turn reddish brown right before harvesting?

    Anyone with sativa experience, please help...

    I let my sample nug dry for 5-6 days. I didnt cure it first though, would that have made big a difference in strength if it had been cured first?. It was weak, how, I dont know because with the strand being a quarter white widow and quarter ice, it should be stronger than what it was. The plants...

    Anyone with sativa experience, please help...

    You said sativas are best at this stage to cut? I sampled a piece, it doesn't seem strong enough. Or with sativas is that something that gets better and better through curing etc? I've heard up to 16 weeks with sativas. They are 15 now. Oh from now on I'm goin with Indicas.
