    Cause for a Hermie Party, Banana Balls only

    This was a trial run, so out of 4 germed seeds, 2 Nirvana Afghan and 2 BS, only one was (initially) a female. Into the 8th week of flowering the plant started with the "Banana Balls" (male florets?) out of the buds. At first I didn't think anything of it except I saw some new greener growth in...

    Confused...One Diagnosis, or two, or ? Pics

    No, no overwatering going on...but I think I should introduce the heating pad.

    Confused...One Diagnosis, or two, or ? Pics

    Yeah I guess in retrospect the MG was not the way to go. I swear when I bought it I didn't see that it had time released nutes, but I was wrong. So is the MG with my diluted nutes burning, or locking out other nutes? What exactly do I use to shock treat the water? And what does that...

    Confused...One Diagnosis, or two, or ? Pics

    I had figured the yellowing lower leaves were due partly to the plants getting rootbound in 16oz cups. Transplanted a week ago into a not much bigger Jiffy peat pot. The plants seem slow to grow. Could this be a potassium issue? pH seems fine, runoff was last measured at 6.2 During the...

    Good lookin out. Just ordered this pH tester, and storage solution; since I may try a DWC of some sort down the road. Milwaukee pH52 pH °C Tester, Meter, pH 52 Natmoon, how do you suggest testing pH; via run off? thanks again.

    Airbasket and fimming tech pics

    I don't have any reason to suspect you'd be BS'ing...plus that effen huge plant with those huge colas speaks for itself, IMO. I scored some airbaskets (10x10x8), got a pump, got some sponges and got some water crystals (calcium chloride I believe?) However, I can't seem to find your post in...

    Hey Natmon, Just found this post... Just starting my real first grow with a couple of bag seeds and a couple of Nirvana Afghan, all have germinated and three are out of the soil with the afghans showing green leaves. But haven't decided how I'm going to grow them...until now I think. i'm...

    LED/T5 Veg, 400W HPS Flower SCOG Cabinet

    Great idea! Where from the plant do you take the cutting, and why? Plus I see you've got 7 cuttings vegging, but are flowering 6; a backup? I may have not read carefully enough, but I didn't see you mention anything about utilizing CO2, but see a bottle down there. I definitely like the idea...

    LED/T5 Veg, 400W HPS Flower SCOG Cabinet

    Enjoying the journal cruzer. starting my first real grow shortly, from seeds, two bag seeds of no idea what and two Afghans from Nirvana. Couple of questions: 1. Are the rapid rooter plugs reusable? 2. I saw your hydro grow journal, and I see you are doing this cabinet grow (i'm doing mine in...

    Swollen Calyxes or Pollinated plant?

    I guess that is what happened, is there someway to identify early on? I'm sure I must've aggravated the situation/spread the pollen that is, because of shaking the tree, occasionally trying to see if my whiteflies were still around. I just trimmed the plant today and am beginning drying it...

    Swollen Calyxes or Pollinated plant?

    Actually it was my only plant, and my very first plant grow also. While it did get irregular light starting into it's about its second week of flowering (that was when I got it and didn't have more than a single and OLD, fluorescent tube to light it for about a week.) I did check the plant...

    Swollen Calyxes or Pollinated plant?

    I've just trimmed my fan leaves tonite and will begin the final harvesting/drying process tomorrow. While I was looking over the plant, I got my hands on it pretty good to examine up close and was a tad concerned about what looks like seeds developing. I busted one of the pods open and there...

    Nearly ready to harvest...whiteflies pestering.

    Thanks. Of course I'd be harvesting which would include clipping the leaves, and curing in the dark. My first thought was that it shouldn't be that big of a deal and especially since there really aren't very many white flies in all and it appears the problem is quite minor. Just wanted to make...

    Nearly ready to harvest...whiteflies pestering.

    Appears my plant is just about ready to harvest. Problem is that I've had whiteflies for about 3 weeks. Very minor and I wouldn't even call it an infestation. I've sprayed three times during the same period, guess not well enough. My question is I will likely be curing in my grow room. Is there...

    What happened to my clone? Did I kill her?

    Well my last ditch effort last nite was to find some kitchen/household items that I could make some type of humidity dome, and the plants have been in there for a tad over 16 hours...what a difference that has made! They may actually make it now. While they are not completely perky as they...

    What happened to my clone? Did I kill her?

    Cool, I'll try that...yeah it was kind of a by chance I came into an already flowering plant. I knew I needed to clone before I did, but had no choice if I wanted to keep this strain going. Plus one of the cuttings was actually a break of a node when we were moving it. I've still got two clones...

    What happened to my clone? Did I kill her?

    Thanks User, I've jerry rigged a humidity dome and will take your advice on the leaves. And Skate, I guess now comparing not only the length but as well as the # of roots, I should've waited. Should I try to to put the roots back into water to help with growth? Thanks.

    What happened to my clone? Did I kill her?

    Bump....anyone? From what I could research the flower looks as almost as if it was dehydrated with the droopy leaves. The fan leaves actually look worse now, more discoloring and more compression of themselves. But oddly the other tiny little leaves, stem etc...look great. I wonder if I can...

    What happened to my clone? Did I kill her?

    Pic #2 & 3. These pics were taken just a little while ago. I decided to see what was going on with the roots, and to my surprise the primary tap root is longer and now there is a second tap root that is nearly as long as the first one. That was a surprise to me. #4-5 These are pics of my other...

    What happened to my clone? Did I kill her?

    Hello all, Definitely a newbie here. I've never grown much of anything before btw. However, I have done quite a few hours of research up to lastnite. I thought I was ready to transplant this baby into soil, but I'm afraid I may have got over zealous. Here's the background story: Basically, I...
