    My Lady

    Have your plants started to stretch like crazy yet, because after that stretch period the plant will solely focus on bud production and youll start to see lil baby bud sites

    Nute

    To answer your question: you mix 1 TBsp of each nute into a gallon of water. BTW you gotta a pretty complete feeding program there youre plants should love that. Good luck on the grow.

    Broken Stem Outdoors first time

    Ripped roots = trouble?

    Its never good to cause damage to any of your root mass, but youre goin to be fine those feeler roots coming out of the bottom of the pot were not critical. Just hit your girl with a lil dose of any antishock product because she prob got a little shock but shell come out of it quick.

    Its way too HOT in my grow area during day...

    Help my girls

    Theres no need to try to make up that one day of missed light, those plants will be fine if you just keep up your 12/12 till harvest. BTW if you ever think about doing something that will majorly stress out your plants give em a dose of dutchmaster reverse.

    .......ok i would like to know

    Clones can take a several days to root if their not in ideal conditions, I would mist the leaves 3 times a days until you can see root development then throw it in whatever medium youre growing in.

    Smart pots??

    Smart pots are an excellent way to grow: the added aeration, water flow control, and the inability of plants to get root bound are major benefits to any grower. However your right about the sides drying out quicker than the middle of the pot, that's not a major concern as long as you have a...

    Best Seed/Strain for Outdoor Beginner

    If youre planting them outside inground then plant at least 8 feet away from eachother. That distance allows roots to spread out and allows space inbetween plants for more sunlight

    Humidity issue and interest

    Videoman is dead on, you need more heat in your grow room especially when your CO2 is running, promotes massive growth when temp is around 85-90 try battery powered heaters.
