    Top-Dressed for Flower, Leaves Look Burned and Crunchy

    Yes I'm familiar with cycling the soil - burned seedlings by not following those rules years ago. I did the same with my veggie garden, let it sit about 3 weeks after mixing in all of the above stuff. I guess I just didn't think the alfalfa would burn it like it did. Lesson learned. I need to...

    Top-Dressed for Flower, Leaves Look Burned and Crunchy

    It's been a few years since I've had one going, the whole "less is more" thing totally slipped my mind and I just followed the application rates on the bags like I do for my vegetables like a jackass. Sucks. Hey Johnei, given the size of my cab, low but wide containers work better, which is why...

    Top-Dressed for Flower, Leaves Look Burned and Crunchy

    Hello everyone. I'll try to keep this short and sweet. At around Week 3 of flower here. All organic, peat based mix. In the original mix I had peat, compost, perlite, EWC, kelp meal, fish bone meal, fish meal, shrimp & crab meal, gypsum, oyster shell flour, and glacial rock dust. She was...

    Ready For Chop Chop? Pics

    I was wondering that myself, as I thought the pistils were still a bit "crazy." I've had some trouble identifying the calyxes and what they SHOULD look like when it's done flowering. I have been watching the pistils for color change. Thanks for your response!

    Leaves Thin, Dry, Curling.. Pics Inside

    Hey everyone! So I'm on week 4 of flowering with this strain that is supposedly "Cotton Candy Kush." I'm using a Coots soil recipe, watering only. Temps are around 77* F lights on, 70* F lights off, humidity is very very low. Over the last few weeks, a decent amount of leaves have been drying...

    Forgot to water leftover soil for 3 weeks - still good?

    Thanks everyone, I will most certainly use the teas then. I will most likely use the leftover tea from my upcoming brews of AACT, SST, and kelp tea to ensure some nice life remains active. Thanks again!

    Forgot to water leftover soil for 3 weeks - still good?

    Hey everyone Throughout the madness that has been the last 3-4 weeks, I completely forgot to moisten the leftover soil I mixed up from my last batch. It's been sitting in the basement the entire time. Can I thoroughly water it and maintain it for the next month or so and use it for the next...

    Encountered My First Male.. Now what?

    The part you circled is actually a small leaf. Not completely new to it, just never had a male before, or really seen one because I was only concerned with the females lol! Supposedly, it's "Dutch Treat," but the beans are from someone who may not have been completely trustworthy. They all...

    Encountered My First Male.. Now what?

    So, 3 days ago I was up close and personal with the plants, to give them an ACT.. and didn't even notice it at the time. But only 3 days later, holy crap.. it's impossible to miss this: It's been exactly 2 weeks since the switch to 12/12. My concern is, that the male above was in a...

    Bud Rot or Safe to Smoke?

    Do you have a link to a good write-up? I took a small piece of a different bud that had been drying and threw it in the vape. This bud didn't have ANY signs of powdery mildew, but was quite brown. Obviously it hasn't had any time to cure so it's harsh also. One hit from 40 mins ago and my chest...

    Bud Rot or Safe to Smoke?

    Thanks everyone! I've never made qwiso oil/shatter, you need a heat source and stuff right? Would probably just be easier to make butter.

    Bud Rot or Safe to Smoke?

    Would a quick QWISO wash pull the trichomes off? I was considering just turning it into oil also.

    Bud Rot or Safe to Smoke?

    Thanks for your response. If I decide to even try it, it's going in the oven for the approved thermal death time for mold. None of the other colas had any white "spider web" like stuff on it, they're just a bit brown but the insides are still green. Dense too, nothing is mushy. I think the plant...

    Bud Rot or Safe to Smoke?

    Been lookin at the girls with the lights off for the last few weeks, and when I say that I mean I turn the lights off and check them, not that I'm checking them during their dark period. It's about time to chop, so I took some clippings to check them out under the microscope. Now that I'm...
