Two and one half years ago, my brown thumbs and I created a mutation in my garden worth exploring. I am all solar, had a cloudy spell long enough to cause light problems, and got early flowerers. I had two early flowered females well covered with flowers, and and then a third plant flowered. A...

This just started. It's nutient related, but I can't help wonder, is the sudden stretching due to it's reverting to veg stage? I admit adding a seedling in the room with 16 hrs of light may have triggered this, though the lights are well below the flowering foliage. I'm flushing this for...

I have had root gnats as long as I can remember. I have opened new bags of commercial potting soil and witnessed a cloud of them exiting the bag. Above ground, they are harmless, except in their capacity to lay eggs. Some say they are near impossible to eracicate. And as aphids, they can be bad...

Early this morning I had to reset a light timer in my grow room before lights on, so I had my forehead light on. I had to sit on the floor to reach the timer, ( it was behind a grow bag), so I was looking up, at the underside of some flowering ladie's leaves. I was horrified to see white spots...

I've been having nutrient problems with this plant for a while, first not feeding and loosing leaves, which feeding FF nutes corrected, til this started. Is this the dreaded nitrogen curl?

I have from time to time come across cutworms while turning my compost, I would expect it outside. But last week after a harvest I found a glassey cutworm snuggled against the bottom of the grow bag. My question: Are cutworms only a threat to seedlings?

If I add worms to my compost, will I need to, or even be able to, remove them for planting? So, What's wrong (or right) about having worms in the grow medium?

I always reuse my store bought potting soil after composting it. I add composted cow manure, wood ashes, and other stuff and let it compost. I feed strictly organic nutes. Until I ran out for a period recently. I had to finish a grow with miracle gro flowering formula which I had on hand. So, is...

I have stumbled on a couple of self-developed strains that seem to have a strange mutation--they skip the vegetative stage, or combine veg with flower stage, flowering by the 6th week. They have never had less than 16 hours of light, and have been on 18 hrs daily since week 4. At 5 1/2 weeks, I...

I have an unheated indoor grow room that got cold enough last night to leave my plants drooping, and tonite is expected to be a little colder. They are about halfway through flowering, with no amber trichomes yet. Should I panic and harvest?

The plants below were put seed-in-ground Apr 28th--78 days ago. They showed first flowers at about 4 weeks. They are all female. They are a cross between Colombian Gold landrace and Ice Cream Cake (Gelato). I see no amber trichomes yet. lights are on 16 hrs a day. Are there ways to keep them...

Earlier this year I had an Ice Cream Cake (Gelato) flower male, early in veg state. Extermely stressful grow conditions from the start actually produced three early flowerers, two females plus the ICC male. Would this little guy's pollen be normal? His offspring are not acting normal. The two...
