    Bagseed genetics question

    I just found a seed in a bag of something called Malachi from CO, but I got to thinking... If I find a seed, since it's got new genetic material, would it technically be a different strain than the original Malachi in which it was found? This was the only seed found in the ounce, so I'm...

    Riot Seeds a Scam?

    So, I think Riot may be a scam. They first off claim to have made seeds for Blue Dream, a clone-only strain. They don't specify it's genetics, claiming it comes from "Some sort of DJ Short Blueberry" and "Believed to be crossed" with SSH. And on top of that, they double up pictures on some of...

    Copycating a strain?

    I have a question about breeding. Keep in mind I'm brand new to this, so please save disparaging condescension for elsewhere. I understand that many strains are crossbreeds of other popular strains, so would it be possible to make your own version of a clone-only strain if you knew it's...

    Retarded seeds? Or lights too close?

    Hey, I started these purple maroc seeds in soil about 10 days ago and they've been pointing their leaves straight upward since they sprouted. They're under a 400w MH lamp and I thought it may be too close, so I moved it up today when I saw a leaf was drying out. Here's a picture of what I'm...

    Question about treating N deficiency, 2 weeks into veg

    Hey all, I've got two plants that have been vegging for about 16 days and I've been noticing a little yellowing over the past few days on the lower leaves. After doing some research here it appears to be an N deficiency (yellowing lower leaves, stunted growth), which kind of makes sense because...

    Colored Seeds?

    So, I was browsing around and saw Greenhouse and a couple other breeders offered colored seeds. They boasted that the coloring process helps preserve the seed, but I find that hard to believe. Has anyone actually experienced a better germination rate with colored seeds? For that matter, has...

    What's a seed's shelf life?

    I just ordered a pack of seeds, but I don't think I'll be able to germ all of them right off the bat. Which has made me wonder... How long is a seed good for? And would keeping it in a cool place (like the fridge) preserve it for longer? +rep for answers. Thanks dudes!bongsmilie

    Pale, rust-colored spots on my leaves. Need halp! (PICS)

    Ok, this plant has been in flower for around 60 days (taking forever if you ask me) and now she's starting to show these strange rust-colored spots all over her leaves. She was infested with fungus gnats at one point, but I poured perlite on the surface soil and had a high-powered fan blowing at...

    DK's new grow! 400w HPS+MH (Mango, Blue Cheese, Vanilla, Purple Maroc and The Goo!)

    It's been a while, but I decided to stat up a new journal. Here's all the info: My last grow (click my sig to read!) was under CFL in a closet and it went really well, so I figured I should up my game and see what I can do with some better equipment. I just got a 36''x20''x62'' reflective...

    Freak leaves?

    Alright, this plant is 13 days into veg (10 days in the picture). It's some mystery bagseed I picked up from a friend and it's first leaf set is unusually round and sickly. It's not turning yellow, but it's getting these weird wrinkles. Kind of like isolated dry spots. The next leafsets are...

    Curving (not curling or cupping) leaves. Should I panic?

    Hey all. For the past week I've notice the leaves on my girl are curving somewhat strangely. Here's a picture of what I'm talking about It's really weird. I'm not sure if there's something wrong with her. A few weeks ago she almost died from overwatering, but now she's fine. Growing...

    Over watering? Or hot soil?

    It's my first grow,.You guys are the experts, so here's what's up. The plant on the right is Sour Cream and the one on the left is Skunk #1, both feminized. The S#1 plant started doing this last week, and the leaves on the SC were just warping into a weird shape. I transplanted them from some...

    Are my kids growing too slowly?

    Hey, ya'll. It's day 10 on my grow and the kids aren't looking too big (pics in my sig). I'm concerned that the space I'm growing in may be too big with not enough lights or too hot. Am I just being impatient or are there things I should be doing that I haven't thought of?

    Question on FoxFarm v Earth Juice

    I'm currently growing some new babies (see sig for details) and I've just started them on a fish emulsion (5-1-1) fert, but I'd like to use something a little more potent, yet still derived from mother earth. I've read up on FoxFarms and I know everyone loves them so, but I'm not sure on if I...

    Need a straight answer on nutes and watering please!

    Hey all, my babies sprung up from the dirt about 5 days ago and the soil is drying up very quickly. I'm worried about overwatering and people have told me to hold back on it, but I don't want them to shrivel up on me. If the soil on top is completely dry and not much different an inch or two...

    Miracle Gro Organic Choice liquid nute question

    Just started some seeds last week, and both have popped their heads out today. I haven't added any nutes yet and I'm using some soil called EarthGro which, according to the bag, is mostly compost with some sand and perlite added. I've already heard the warnings about Miracle Gro soil and how it...

    First grow evar! Skunk #1 in soil under CFL (Organic)

    What up, ninjas? Been reading these forums for about 4 years but I've never had the capacity to actually grow. Moved to a new pad, got a better job which can finance my project now, so I'm ready to go! I'll start off with the basics. I'm growing one plant for a person supply and I've germinated...
