    OK so I live in a Condo complex where units are joined and people are right on top of one another. About 6 months ago maybe 7 I heard a rumor about one of the people in another unit getting raided by the cops where they found a considerable amount of cash and oxys. Shortly thereafter the guy who...

Not once have I ever seen an albino bud but this time I found one. and you can tell this is albino and not bleached out by light because only half the leaf is white. Albinism is genetic so how can...

    Waste Disposal

    So I want some ideas on how you urban growers are disposing of your waste trimmings, used dirt / media, empty pesticide / nute bottles, etc. Obviously you can compost the trimmings but for the indoor urban grower having a big stinky pile of plant trimmings in the yard isn't a very good idea...

    What Do Spider Mites Look Like

    http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xncp9a_mite2_animals These are on my plants but they are not making webs and they seem concentrated on one or 2 leaves. I got a hotshot in the tent but it isnt helping. All the images I have seen of mites have two spots on their back... these are black.

    Period Blood Buds

    Phyto Estrogens Some people use birth control pills to raise the estrogen level in their plants. This is a personal choice, but it is not mine. These pills are synthetic and cause a lot of trouble for women and generally I have a certain disdain for them. Menstrual blood, however, is a good...

    Transplant gone wrong

    I built this DIY aeroponic system and it worked a little too well. I had 4 plants in it and all their roots grew together in one big mass :-( The plants are too big for the tent and need to be moved to flower room so I did the unthinkable. I hacked off the massive pile of roots and transplanted...

    How long would your plants last?

    Just curious as to how long you have left your plants (i.e. vacation), and who has left them the longest. I am about to leave mine for 9 days, I am a bit nervous because they seem to require some sort of attention, but I dont see why they couldn't "rough it" for a few days w/o me. Last time I...
