do you dry the pollen only for storage or also before using for pollination? do you think there is any reason using the pollen immed after collecting would result in less success? have you seen better results using sts for sex reversal over cs?

thanks for the response, def sounds like it worked well for ya! stopped spraying the cs after male expression was observed and well before the male flowers were mature...room temp holds mid-upper 70s with lights on and low 70s-upper 60s after lights off with rh ranging around 35-50% (spikes for...

has anyone had similar issues with producing sterile pollen with cs or have any idea why the pollen produced was sterile? or any tips on how to produce pollen that will not be sterile with another try? I thought using the pollen immediately after collection would be best but should I dry it...

I collected the pollen and used it the same day and repeated the process for 3 days ( collect pollen and fertilize females). I used a shit ton of pollen so I was thinking that it was sterile for some reason but don't have any idea why.

I tried unsuccessfully to produce feminized pollen recently on 3 cherry clones each approx. 1ft tall using 50ppm cs sprayed during veg for approx. 10 days at 2-3 times per day over entire plant. continued to spray after flip to flowering until significant male expression was observed on plants ...

No my well water is naturally .1 ec and 6.8-7.1ph depending on time of year...probably the best water I've ever had to grow with. I was seeing improvement with the hydroguard and southern ag but it was at best a stop gap solution.since installing my uvc sterilizer i have been able to stop using...

Have you considered using uvc sterilization for your res?you can purchase an aquarium sterilizer that you can leave in your res with a timer to cycle it as needed.no change to orp or water chemistry and it will kill any pathogens in your water. I have read that it may cause some drop out of iron...

Btw if you have a surface well(hand dug)you really need to have your water rested regularly for total coliform count (especially fecal coliform) as it will give you an indication of your waters potability for human consumption as surface wells are known to be more prone to contamination than...

I had a problem with pythium in my well water causing severe root rot after years of no issue. started using beneficial treatments like hydroguard, great white,mykos,azo s and southern ag fungicide with limited results-helped but didn't resolve it.Tried the standard well shock treatment with...

I had been battling root rot for about six months after never having had an issue with it for years using my well water(.1ec and around6.9to7ph)in my flood and drain set up. Got to the point that my harvests were about one third what i was used to. Had limited success with s.a. ,hydroguard...

Had used 35% h202 diluted at around 3-5 oz per gallon for years and sometimes bleach for extended system sterilization but recently switched to using sodium percarbonate which when mixed results in a solution of i believe 35% h202 and soda ash. I've found it to be more effective than just h202...

Pretty sure it was the AN since the fans started to Green back up from the issues i was seeing using an when i switched to mega mid cycle. Think that the buds would have filled out more if they hadn't struggled with the AN till mid flower but i definitely noticed WAY less larf from the table...

Going to be interesting finishing out these last couple tables using kind while i have a couple more tables using mega and another couple tables that will be running v+b. Don't think I'll continue to try to screw with the kind with the problems and lack of yield. Pic of head band before and...

Got hooked up with a discount to try out veg+bloom ro-soft with push, shine and life, should be here just in time to use on a new table... Any tips for using the base and additives, esp push as I'm not really a foliar feeder? How does the life compare to great white, mykos and azos? What ec...

Much thanks to Lordhooha and thegermling y'all have been extremely helpful with the mega crop info. Looking forward to seeing a return to some chunky buds using mega, thanks again!

Any thoughts what May be causing this chlorosis to show up around week 5? chlorotic growth starting from the tips on the mid-upper plant with purpling of stems and petioles tat continues to worsen till harvest with a significant reduction in yield? Using botanicare kind@8ox base, 18oz bloom in...

Absolutely agree with this, looks like a thrip, maybe a little more white the expected but that could be the light like the op suggested or maybe just a slightly brighter looking sub species of thrip around your area? Hope you have good luck getting them under control!

Check them under a scope or loupe to see if they are collemboans (spring tails)... They have a tendency to jump around and are sized kind of like a flea except longer instead of more round like a flea. They are generally considered beneficial or at least not detrimental as they are decomposers...

Thanks for the info I'll keep an eye out for blue -green tint and pk deficiency this cycle. Is the darker tint from the higher N in the mega? What are your thoughts on using hydroplex for pk boost with less mega during flower to reduce N and increase p&k? How much would you reduce the base and...

Awesome looking plants, definitely got them dialed in! what ec are you running and do you use anything besides mega?hoping to get back to that place again where all my girls are looking chunky and happy with the weight to bring my numbers back up using mega , Jack's or hr v+b since kind sure...
