    Urgent help needed!! Last weeks of flowering & root rot dwc grow

    Plan was to switch over to plain water for the last week or two. I ended up getting stuck out of town for a few days and what I had thought was just coloring from the nutes the week before, now looks more like root rot. The plant even has a few leaves that are dead. As soon as I noticed this I...

    Need help figuring out when to start flushing - dwc bubbledust

    I lost the paper that had the date that I went to 12/12. To make it worse I also lost track of how many res changes I have done. This is my first dwc and I really do not want to ruin a good thing by messing up the harvest. The majority of the hairs are white and under the scope there are...

    What is the correct way to remove a male from a dwc?

    What is the right way to remove a male from a dwc setup? Since the roots tangle, I wasn't sure if it is ok to just cut the males roots at the bottom of the net pot and then just leave the remaining roots in the water? Otherwise I'm worried about messing with the roots of a healthly female.

    Hydro noob- looking for easy system to try

I saw a rubbermaid system that was pretty much just a container that had net pots and two of the air stones used in fish tanks. Obviously I'll need nutes, ph...

    I tried to save her....but I was too late : (

    My buddy had one nice plant that was finishing up BUT..... He was in a rush! First he was going to harvest and I said "Just let me take a piece and put it under the scope, she might need more time" I check it out and she needed another week or two (I'm a noob but that was my estimate)...

    Panda Film- What can I use to bond it???

    I'm planning on making a frame out of 1/2 inch pvc and then I'm going to use the panda film to skin the frame. What can I use to glue/tape the panda film? I didn't even think about it at first but then I realized that it is poly, and certain glue won't adhere to poly. Anyone have any...

    Considering a grow tent- size vs number of plants + lighting

    I've been tossing around the idea of getting myself a grow tent. I think it would make for a clean setup and would be easier to maintain than my current makeshift setup. How many plants can you roughly fit in a 36x20x62 grow tent? Is that too small of an area? Next size up that I saw was the...

    Planning on harvesting the pollen sacs from a male to do a seed run. I saw a few faq's but I'm still not 100% on things. Are the male pollen sacs ready to be removed when they start to hang down or do I need to wait for something else? One of the faq's was talking about waiting to see how...

    Need some advice on autoflowering lowryder strains

    Does anyone with experience know if the auto flowering lowryder strains really finish in 9-10 weeks? I'm seriously considering starting a few now. That would put me around the first or second week of Oct for them to be finishing. Worst case scenario I would have to bring them indoors to finish...

    Quick forced flowering question

    I have one plant that is a runt due to the main stem breaking. I'm thinking about just forcing this one to flower at this point. I did a search and someone suggested just covering the plant with a garbage can. My only concern is that it will get way too hot in there and end up totally killing...
