I plan on doing a full grow (from seed to harvest) with intentions of helping the newer growers out. This will include step by step procedures, updates with photos and just about anything you can think of in-between. With the intentions of helping on learning to grow, I also plan on keeping this...

I know that people usually say you can go about 4 weeks without feeding when using FFOF but I think it’s actually much longer than that. Typically I never tried it until now but whenever I used FFOF I always started feeding around half strength after 4 weeks and would get some kinda burn. Since...

Hey everyone! I’m setting up my 2 new rooms, the measurements are 6.5’ x 9’ and 8’ tall I have 2- 1000watt HPS lights to go in there for flowering. Both lights have air cooled hoods which I will be venting out of the room. I also have a filtered intake fan that will be on a thermostat taking air...

Hey guys, I was looking at what is in the Dr Earth Homegrown and it looks to be decent. What would you guys think about mixing it with coco/perlite as a control to keep it from being too hot? Could it be used by itself to start seedlings?

Planted directly in FFOF, didn’t have time to amend. Have been watering slightly once a day. Day 2. Light is ab 24in 60%dimmed. 18/6 light schedule.

This is my first grow in a few years, moved around etc, finally got a box up and running and this is my first into budding.

Like it says, I just got my the new HLG 600 RSPEC for like $721 during their harvest sale. Previously had grown primarily indoors under a Mars Hydro TS2000 (some outdoor growing too but not recently). I let all plants go 4 weeks veg under my 4000K HLG 65 to around the 8th node before topping...

So I have been very active here for this grow and I appreciate ALL the feedback I have gotten. This is a bad ass forum with some smart people on it, so thank you again This is my 4th indoor grow, with some years of outdoor behind me. My cherry pie tent has hit day 62. I have one that is fox...

My cherry pies have hit day 62 and they are losing ALL their fan leaves to turning yellow and brittle. I am carefully watching the trichs and see that I’m getting NO amber. (Pics included) I just don’t want to leave them under the light losing potential quality for trichs that potentially may...

Here are my trichs and my plants on day 62. Almost all the fan leaves are dead on my bigger plant. Time for the chop tomorrow? Plants are continuing to drop leaves and turn brittle. Yet I have NO amber Trichs. Supposedly these are true cherry pies, and read that some strains will never pop amber...

Is time to chop these girls? Day 59 is here on these cherry pies. The zoomed in trich photos are from day 55. The bud shots are today. Thoughts? I’ll obviously scope them on day 60 to see if it’s the last day and Hopefully I’m rocking atleast a 50% amber. thanks!

We are 2 days away from 8 weeks on this cherry pie. It’s been under a 1000 watt HPS getting nice and ripe. how does it look? 5 or more like 12 days more needed? They look healthy to you all? Appreciate all the feedback, Definitely not the best strain/pheno I’ve grown but for some random clones...

Hey everyone. My soil PH is at 7.2-7.4. I think there’s too much. Dolomite in the mix. How can I lower the PH of my medium? Thanks

Hey I am getting towards the end of my first run and planning my second. First run I did FFHF with Perlite and vermiculite mixed in. I am thinking about trying FF ocean forest this go. Are there any amendments or top dressings you guys recommend? Still have a bunch of FF nutes so will be using...

In need of some help with figuring out what’s happening to my plants! They are all the same age about 64+ days old northern lights x big bud auto.

Growing in SoCal. Gonna get an AC infinity T4 & SF4000 for a 4x4, hopefully will help control the electricity bill. As for water and being where I am, can I get away with watering 4-8 plants (if I expand) without fucking up the bill / environment.. please let me know cause I’d rather grow with...

My 1st indoor grow. 1st post - The Seeds! Ordered Seeds from True North Seed Bank on Sept 12th 2020 - Red Dragon Feminized Seeds (Barney's Farm) The crossing of a Pakistani Kush with a true Brazilian Sativa paved the way for one of our most exotic strains. Red Dragon gives a distinctive and...

The stain is Mango Kush growing in soil indoors. Day 112 (from seed) 6 week flower Is this how the leaf of Mango Kush looks like? Could this be genetic? I gave it a too much water yesterday for sure..

Hey guys! Need some recommendations on some good soil for my next run. My current setup was a coco based medium using dry amendments and teas. I was using RoyalGold Tupur medium and nutrients I’m using is called Green Rein All purpose 5-5-5 and this 0-9-3 bloom both dry amendments. I also had...

So last week I noticed early signs of a nitrogen deficiency and this time it looks like a Cal deficiency? NOTE TO SELF: If vegging plants 3 weeks longer upping my pots by 2 gallon is not nearly enough.... (I normally don't have to feed at all during veg). What do you all think, early Cal...
