    i'm a n00b, please diagnose this picture

    Main concern is the leaves are curling under and discoloring - too much/too little fertilizer? Oh yeah I trimmed the bottom leaves. It turned out to be a hermie so it's a bit spindly as well - I'm just hoping the tops come out ok. It's been in 12/12 for a few weeks now

    what happens if i harvest and dont kill the plant?

    If you don't do it right, it turns into a gigantic hermaphroditic monster that blooms forever but doesn't produce a single smokable bud. I learned the hard way; cuttings are easy.

    acetone & hash

    Are there any numbers comparing room temperature acetone vs cold acetone vs rubbing alcohol vs drinking alcohol when it comes to THC extraction? I've extracted salvinorin from saliva before, so I have a bunch of acetone laying around, but I don't want to use it if it's not effective for THC...

    do plants blossom slower under poor lighting?

    Well, no. But won't the trichomes reach maturity before the buds get bigger now since the plant is retarded?

    do plants blossom slower under poor lighting?

    I have 4 baby cuttings ready and able. It's just I want to get this goliath out of the way! And I don't know whether to keep going or cut my losses since it's been blooming so long.

    do plants blossom slower under poor lighting?

    I probably have them too far away, but I didn't think it'd mess up growth this much. It's definitely been blooming for over 2 months now. What should I do? Adjust the lights and keep it blooming? Cut and just treat my clones better?

    do plants blossom slower under poor lighting?

    The last harvest had even smaller buds (I may not have let it bloom long enough). They work... but aren't very potent. They get the job done. As far as nutrients, I gave it a bunch of Miracle Gro Bloom Mix... The only thing I can think of is that the lights aren't close enough, which they...

    do plants blossom slower under poor lighting?

    I left my camera's USB cable at work. I'll try to remember it tomorrow. I'm growing under 2 2ft T5's and 4 CFLs of 100-150 watt equivalence. It's a revegged plant - say about 2 months. The first harvest was... weak and premature. This time around looks a lot better, but I'm having trouble...

    do plants blossom slower under poor lighting?

    I don't exactly have the best set-up, so my buds look a little... pathetic compared to the pics here. I thought I was almost ready to harvest (pistils were mostly red) but then my plant got a new set of white pistils. I'm tryin' to use this Radio Shak microscope but it's proving a bit...

    what triggers hermaphrodites?

    When I harvest, is there an easy way to determine which buds have seeds and which do not? Will water curing the buds ruin the seeds?

    what triggers hermaphrodites?

    Let's say I harvested and then re-vegged a plant for a couple months and then re-flowered it. In the last week or two it's gotten the tiny yellow flowers and pollen spillage. This is pretty late in the bloom stage, I can't say exactly, but at least 4 weeks. I'm not too worried about this crop...

    cheap and easy odor elimination?

    Yeah, I don't care about maximizing results, I care about removing smell. Maybe when I have more time and a plant that doesn't look like Godzilla I'll build a box with a fan and all that fancy crap. I wasn't able to procure the required things VM's system requires, but I got some febreeze and...

    cheap and easy odor elimination?

    Aside from building an air tight box and having a carbon filter output, what's the next best thing? Do any commercial air filters (like ionic breeze, etc) help? Baking soda? A combination? What are your successes and failures?

    Do I need to kill the plant?

    I felt the same way, so I re-vegged my plant. You do this by cutting off what you want and leaving some branches to re-grow and then putting the plant under 20 hour light again. The plant looks completely retarded now. The good news is that I am 4 out of 4 for taking cuttings - it's a lot...

    *bought some Salvia yesterday, tried it

    I've actually made my own extract too... with my own plants cause I grow 'em. If anyone wants tips on growing... I had a friend do the extract and said it was intense but short. But I wasn't interested. I've had too many salvia trips that weren't to my liking. I just like having the plants...

    *bought some Salvia yesterday, tried it

    Different people react to it differently. With one hit of 10x, some people will sit there and just giggle. Other people will flip out. I loaded up my bong and told my friend to take a hit (without him knowing what it was). For 10 minutes, he romped around and thought he had wings. I had to...

    *bought some Salvia yesterday, tried it

    Iamshaman.com is usually the cheapest place for such things, and good quality. I got their 6x and it messed me up pretty bad (but some people are more sensitive to Salvia than others). You should give kratom a shot too, since you're already ordering.

    reduvinasion

    I did that, minus the cloning. And yes, it looks retarded. It's funny seeing the buds get tentacles.
