    Increasing light from 11/13 to 12/12 messes with flowering?

    If you are in late flower and have lowered to 11/13 to try to finish a sativa and you also have indicas and hybrids under the same light, once you harvest the sativa, will it mess with the remaining plants' flowering metabolism if you increase the lighting back up to 12/12? Or should you leave...

    FPE vs LABs

    I'm making a batch of LABs. I don't want to get too far down this Korean farming rabbit hole thing, but as long as I have labs I'm thinking why not make FPE? My question is what is FPE better for than just labs alone and why so? Is it just adding nutrients? If my organic soil already has...

    Soil mix for landrace sativa (indoors led)?

    Have grown several finicky landrace sativa (Africans, Highland Thais) indoors in soil and knowing most of them don't like hot soil I try to make weaker soil. Typically by taking mix that works well for hybrids and cutting it to double volume with plain pete and perlite. Most of them seem to...

    Is increasing lights-on time in flower a problem here?

    Would it cause the plant problems if I start it flowering with 11 hours on 13 hours off, and 4 weeks or so later increase it to 12 on 12 off? I'm trying to get my sativa to hurry the fuck up but want to put another non sativa plant in there with it. :eek: Will the increase in on time weird...

    What happens when you cut back hard in flower?

    I could not find exact answer to this and I never did it because it's so not recommended but I might be about to because I have a sativa I have been super cropping like crazy but it is not doing the trick. It is covering another pot I need to grow a smaller plant in and I cannot move the pot...

    ok to water neem oil to roots close to harvest?

    I'm at week 10 and thinking of adding a few drops to the watering water. Not spraying it on but watering the roots. If neem is ingested systemically does it effect the buds when applied this late?

    How do you tell it's ready without a scope?

    Do you go by colors of the leaves and how many leaves are changed? I know what, 80% red hairs isn't the best.

    using acid resistant capsules

    If you put oil or butter in acid resistant capsule the thc would bypass your stomach and dissolve in your intestine. Besides taking longer to start feeling high, what would be the difference from regular capsules? Think I read once about thc processing in your stomach first and then again...

    Small LED build advice

    Love RIU! I want to get my feet wet with LEDs by building my own small fixture. I would like to build my own. It's only for vegging, and I want to evenly cover a 1 sq ft area from a height of only 2 ft or less, so I think it's total max of only 45w. I want to learn to work with LEDs, so...

    Separating buds from stems for drying

    I'm thinking of separating buds from stems when I harvest instead of hanging the whole plant to dry. Assuming the temp and humidity is in the good range, will this have any negative effect compared to drying them on the stems? I'm asking specifically about drying, not curing. Thanks!

    What is wrong with my bitches?

    What's wrong with these? I have a feeling it's an obvious/classic something if you know. They have white or yellow at the edges of the leaves in the center of the pictures. Does it change the diagnosis whether they are white or yellow? Sorry bad photos. More background: Different strains...

    best humidity for rooting clones?

    I've got more control over my humidity to try and solve my cloning issues and want your advice. I've been lucky if half of my cuttings make it. Read a lot of suggestions and often see people saying to take the humidity dome off after only 1-3 days. I took my dome off this time and they're in...

    Pheno hunt vs. "strain hunt" - pros and cons

    Say you only have room for a few plants under your big light. I'm looking for thoughts comparing a grow for pheno hunting within one strain to growing different strains together to find the best strain. My thoughts, Pheno hunt Pro - you don't have to save as many clones you won't want for...

    Trichomes. why shouldn't you look at trichs on the sugar leaves? so many say this but don't give a reason. I find out of focus trick looks cloudy but if you focus you may find they're actually clear. I'm tired of dicking around with the fucking scope.
