    I have 40" tall lowryders -- how can I stop them?

    Thank you all for such prompt feedback. I'll try to answer all of you as best I can. They are in 12/12 starting a couple of days ago... admittedly because I didn't realize (or remember to check) that the four freebie seeds sent to me from The Attitude seed bank were feminized but not...

    I have 40" tall lowryders -- how can I stop them?

    I'm growing about a dozen Lowryder #2 in a closet. I can only raise my lights about eleven more inches before I'm out of room to raise them. I thought Lowryder #2s were supposed to average 16-20" in height... I'm at 40" and they're not really showing any signs of stopping. What can I do without...

    First Lowryder Grow -- everything look normal?

    Hello, all. My basic question is: Are my Lowryder #2s normal? I bought them from "The Attitude Seed Bank" (they were the pinnacle of fantastic to deal with, as a company). When I see pictures of other peoples' Lowryder plants, they look small, like the height of a pencil. Mine are practically...

    White stuff on hydroton. Help?

    I added plastic sheeting to cover the net pots, and based on the recommendations from a post in the grasscity forums I also sprayed the base of each plant with 3% hydrogen peroxide diluted to 1%. Other than the possible salt/mold/dried nutes -- how's everything look?

    White stuff on hydroton. Help?

    My problem: I'm noticing some white growth on the outside of my hydroton pellets. Is it mold? Is it fungus? Will it harm the plants (the picture of the baby plant is the sharksbreath)? What is a safe way to be rid of the mold? :shock: My setup: I'm growing 18 plants in a closet: 14...

    Most Effecient way's to drain your reservoir?

    I have a home made ebb/flow system, and to drain the reservoir I use an extra pump (the same pump that I use to fill the upper reservoir) that I toss in when I want to drain the water.

    First grow -- flowering. Looking for advice

    My first grow consisted of two batches of seeds from a buddy of mine. The first batch was germinated on 11/7/09 (led to 2 females) and the 2nd batch was germinated on 12/27/09 (led to 4 males). The picture was of the top of the tallest plant, germinated on 12/27. I've added a picture of the...

    First grow -- flowering. Looking for advice

    I'm still on my first grow, and I'm looking for some expert advice about how much longer I might have to wait until I can harvest. I have no idea what strain they are; the seeds I got were generously donated from a friend. I'm growing in closet using a homemade flood/drain system using CFLs...

    Flood/Drain, how much does a plant drink per day?

    I'm no expert (still on my first grow, switched to 12/12 about a month ago), but I have six plants in a 2 28Qt plastic storage bin flood/drain system I made. The plants sit in net cups that are in holes cut through the lid of the top 28qt container; the other 28qt container is the reservoir...

    My First Baby

    I'm still on my first grow, so if some expert comes along and contradicts me, listen to them. But.... I had the exact same kind of plant food (Shultz). I couldn't find a balance between using too little (and not getting much growth) and burning the crap out of my leaves. I went to a somewhat...

    Vaporizers and which one?

    I own a volcano vaporizer --- it is fantastic. It leaves such immense flavor in the weed, and a little goes a long way. --however-- I still find myself using glass very often. You don't have to wait for a glass bowl to get to 446deg F, and glassware has much less prep time.

    First Grow Box Questions -- Leaf discoloration

    Thank you for the quick reply. I will save the 10/15/10 for when the plants approach the maximum height of my grow-box. Can you recommend a nutrient additive that I can use for the vegetative stage? I checked the pH using a liquid tester made by General Hydroponics. From the looks of it, my pH...
