Riddle,
LOL- I was over at Paulino gardens a couple days ago, I just must have missed the Jack's classic stuff (saw all kinds of FF though). They are only a mile or two from where I work (over on Washington), so I may have to shop there more often. They do seem to have a heck of a selection, but the place is almost overwhelming if you don't already know where the stuff you're looking for is at.
I haven't tried a humidifier yet since I don't own one and getting me to go shopping for anything is like pulling teeth (especially when there is snow on the ground). I may have to break down and make myself go up to wally world anyway, but that doesn't mean I'm going to like it.

The legal situation here is silly. The laws have so many grey areas in them right now that it's hard to tell when you're legal and when you aren't, especially if you're trying to grow commercially. Add in a local DEA office that doesn't seem to have gotten the memo from Obama telling them to lay off on MMJ and it makes things really unpredictable. These guys are on record in the papers saying they are going to continue to bust MMj growers and dispensaries every chance they get.

Damned if it didn't happen again, got a call from a fellow grower I talk with a lot and both of his turned out to be females

most say 50/50 but 40/60 is probably more realistic (that's F/M)i got 8 just starting out, ill prob take the good looking ones and grow them out and then hopefully ill have a few females. i hope i have the same luck!!

this grow I just harvested I planted 2 seeds and got one of each hence 50/50, but I have read others getting only one female out of 10 seeds, it'a basically a crap shoot

Anyone know a good method for reviving a clone that's gone into some severe transplant shock and looks to be slowly dying? One of the my new blueberry clones is in some serious distress and I'm not sure If she's going to pull through- All her grown leaves drooped down to the soil and curled up and havent done anything since (about 36 hours now), though the new sprouts she was showing still look ok. I pinched off her biggest fan leaf because it had gone all yellow and was just draining her, but she hasn't really improved.

the temp is around 65-70 and the humidity is around 30% sometimes a bit above. do you think pulling the lights away a bit will help keep the moisture levels up? i have one 150 watt cfl and 2 smaller cfls. thanks for the info ed

clones dont really need too much light.. u can get by with the smaller cfl.the temp is around 65-70 and the humidity is around 30% sometimes a bit above. do you think pulling the lights away a bit will help keep the moisture levels up? i have one 150 watt cfl and 2 smaller cfls. thanks for the info ed
and it might help.

I can't really tell you with the CFL's because I use HID's. From what I understand the cfl's dont get as hot, so they shouldn't leach anywhere near as much moisture as the HID's do. Keep in mind, i grow from clones, so I don't have much experience with fresh seedlings. I can't imagine it will go through a ton of water in just 2-3 days at this point in it's life, but it's still risky leaving it for that long without anyone checking to make sure everything is going the way it should. If you can get the humidity up closer to 50% it will help, but I definately understand if you can't manage that with the quick and easy methods (like putting a bucket of water in front of your fan) since I have the same problem.

I agree.
Here's my cloner for example: 1 23w CFL...

these are seedlings right? so time your watering to be right before you go and water till you have run off, they should be good for the 3 days, check em when you get back, don't just water em again but make sure the soil is still moist add a bit if needed, like and oz or 2. My experience with seedlings is they can easily go 7 days between watering with no problems
also yes move the light up a bit not because of heat or evaporation but because they can grow into it while your gone and get burnt.

This could be one of those know when to fold/hold em moments, but me I like trying to save em to learn from it and all I can share is what I would do to see if would work (as I have not had this exact problem before)
I would flush it run 3 times the container size worth of water thru it ph'd to 5.8 and cold, because I know this puts em to sleep I would then put it in the sun (like in a window sill) for a few hours (like 4) to get it to wick the water a bit, then I would put in a humidity dome with like 80 to 90 % humidity. Then I would watch and wait to see what happens
You could also put a post in the plant problems forum to see what others think?
