I use rockwool also. I wait until it feels slightly moist before I water again, as if I licked my finger just a little. I touch with the back of my index knuckle if im really not sure. I water from the top carefully so I can see the water start to come out the bottom. You dont want the cube to...
I dont know how close nirvanas Maui is to an original, but its coming along pretty ok. The Maui is in front and that mofo in the back is sour diesel. I'm embarrassed to show it, but eff it lol. I had two different times I had to be away from home from a couple days and it wouldnt stop...

Its funny how some of the more veteran growers here forget the anxiety of the first few grows. I also agree to sample small through grows for new growers. Gives some perspective and little rewards. However, you dont wanna slow pick yourself to no harvest lol. Only sample under the canopy. If I...
I did a true fim and ended up with three shoots on one of my current plants. Wish I could say I know how to fim. I understand it's a shorter cut but I fim on accident 5 percent of my tops I figure. I Lst also
I have to say YouTube can be invaluable. Like most mediums that offer "info" online you will need a consensus approach. Sites like this will simplify said data and should speed up that learning. There's good and bad on YouTube. Ive looked at probably hundreds of hours. A good vid can take you a...
