I want to apoligize ahead of time, sorry folks it just happened this way, I do not mean to be mean to any of you. Let me explain. I visit a few forums. You will not find a site that tries to help new growers as much as we do here at rollitup. When I joined there were not 10,000 members, now there are more than that. A couple of months ago some of us seemed to notice a problem. We have a welcome thread, folks are supposed to introduce themselves there, and they were doing so. The problem was no one was acknowledging that they had done so. So you kinda came in and did what you thought was right, and no one said anything, Right?? Caligrown and ace seemed to notice this about the same time I did, I have never talked with them about it, only mentioned it to one other person. I saw it as a problem anyway, and decided I would try to do something about it, so I permalinked it. If someone posts in this thread I get notified. And I read them on a daily basis and have committed to giving each one a response.
Please understand I am not saying I am qualified to answer any question you may have, I do have a pretty good feel for who in this forum will be able to give you a correct answer to your question. Every time you post in a thread it comes up as a Today's Post when I log in, you do not have to start a new thread, and doing so is couterproductive for you and me both, its a lose-lose. Instead of reading what your setup might be, and then another thread for what you did and another one for what your plants did, put it in one thread, title your responses and post them all together.please.
SOme of the more experienced growers have lifes, families and jobs too, our time is limited just like yours is, and while it may seem frustrating to wait for 24 hours before demanding an answer, I promise you you will get a better answer. Its ok to check and see if someone has responded in 10 minutes, please do not start another thread.
Well...that is interesting pri**, I mean Vic, what is your point.
My point is, you will get better answers if you help make it easier for an old man that still uses hunt and peck typing method to do so. Ok I'm back off the soupbox, welcome all. VV

Hey grass welcome to the forum. You will want to do some research. No a Marijuana plant will not do well at 90 degreees with 90% humidity, sure its not like that all day everyday. It will survive, probably, and grow whenits cooler and it can prespire. FAQ upper left hand corner of this page.

Hey Saudi, welcome. No, you can't grow a Mrijuana plant with anincandesecnt light. I know, you are doing it now, right? No, what is happening is the nutrition stored in the seed is growing the plant and when its gone....you will want to check out lighting before giving advice.
Mnoel, I understand your frustration, signed in last year, and we ignored you, thats rude and I apoloigize. I hope it doesn't happen again. Please relax, those plants are fine, in a few hours you will see. They will open up and the lights a ok for a couple of days. You might want to take a look at my journal, there is a link in my signature. It starts from day one, covers transplanting, final transplant, and has a hidden story of a HempStar/TexadaTimeWarp (HempWarp) grow in it. Those seeds came up on the 17th I think and I just put them in their final size pots today, haven't even posted that yet, I will though. And I will link to your journal, if you will keep it all together in one place??

Sound good, you have done some research.
I would say this probably indicates you don't have a watering schedule or a moisture meter. You solved the problem by watering....hmmmm what do you think was the problem??
I have a journal, there is a link to it in my signature. There are pictures there that can help you with those steps. You will see that even when there is operator (VV) error the process isn't that difficult. The plants have almost fully recovered, hope I don't have the same problem with the HempWarp.
Develping strong stems requires an oscillating fan blowing 'gently' around your plants. Grow room setups would be a good place to look, or Newbie journals 6months to three months old. VV

There is a thread about security, a guy posted information there about how you should protect yourself and rollitup agreed you should do what he suggested or sommething similar. Rollitup is going to have a second birthday fairly soon I think May Or June. I'll look for it later today. You might just try a tag, security? I'm just not a computer guy. Rollitup says you are right to be concerned about protecting your self, no need to apoligize. VVThe outside IP address is all that is required to track any public message. could the cops could subpoena rollitup.org records (ie users IP addresses) then track from there. But It doesn't really seam like a major concern around here. Sorry to be buzz kill. How long has rollitup.org been around?

Hi. This is my first time growing and Ive managed to get rid of all the males and left with 2 rather healthy females, approximately 400mm high each and are about 5 months old. Please can someone help me to distinguish when the right time to harvest would be... and what I should be doing to achieve a good healthy grow for my Bubblelicious. Much appreciated. Ive attached some pics.

I found seeds in my draw and wanted a quick fix so i grabbed the incandescent bulb from my closet.....i understand that lights such as cfl's and metal halide bulbs are much more suitable.... also my seedlings are past the stage where it is receiving the nutrients from the seed....it already has 3 sets of leaves. I have done much research the advice i would have given would have been correct and helpful.

To strengthen the stems you should have a fan or a semi-strong air circulation pointed at the plants.

what do the little "nodes" look like???? this could be a sign that it is a male if they look like little balls near the stem.
Hi So heres the deal Me and my BF just planted some seeds and two days later they sprouted now its been a little over 5 days and they average about an inch a day is that normal?? I wasnt expecting them to grow at all!!! I put them in ceramic pots and i place them by the window all day to get sun.. Its still early to tell what sex they are but they seem to be doing well... we water them with dirty fish tank water to give them an extra boost is that ok??

Hey, 1st time grower here. This seems to be the best forum I have found to get my mission accomplished. I am staying small for personal use. I have EXCRUCIATING pain in my legs and this seems to be whats up...werd

i do not think using dirty water is a good idea at all... use a cheap and easy to buy bag of potting soil that has some nutrients in it already. then use distilled water. it is not worth it to use dirty "feces" water from fish tank or a pond. it is just an unnecessary risk you are taking that can introduce various diseases. i know you arent taking it very seriously but thats my 2 cents...
