    Autoflower Problems (WW, Afgan, Blueberry) Under-Nuted?

    Ive had similar issues... about the same as yours. Not a biggie. Let the Cal/Mag run its course... may take a couple of weeks but that is what it looks like. You nutes are a bit low... but Ive never grown an autoflower strain. My girls in the bloom room are usually around 1200 ppm. You can also...

    Does your PH jump hard in DWC buckets?

    I use Cornucopia Plus - Plant energy. Its a great addition to your regular nutes and it keeps the PH really stable. I use a little PH- every couple of days but it pretty stable. I use a 10 gallon totes for my plants. http://www.gtghydroponics.com/store/0-0-761.htm Good Luck

    24 hour light cycle during veg??

    I have been running my Veg room 24/0 and have never had any problems. I veg under CFL's and Bloom under HPS. Check out my first grow below. My yields have been outstanding. I personally run the 24/0 because im a basement grower and it gets down to about 50F... not the best for clones and...

    Why are my females flowering??

    3 weeks and you have flowers... not a good sign. Sounds like a Hermi. A true Female will sometimes shoot out some flowers (mine have), but that is much later into the bloom cycle as the female is trying to keep the lifecycle going in its own. If you have lots of flowers... your buds are gonna...

    is the garden center going to have mylar ?

    The emergency blankets work really well... and cheap on Ebay. You can also get reflective foil tape at Lowes or for 1/2 the price at Big Lots (my favorite store after hydro shop).

    Two weeks into bloom. Please tell me how it's coming along!

    Looking good. You may need to increase your pot size. Those girls are going to get huge. Give them some root space. You should get a good yield. I cant tell the size of your room, but you will want to rotate the plants so the ones on the outside aren't starved for light. My girls have been...

    ?s on root ball size b4 flipping to 12/12

    Here is a little tip for root growth. I start my seedlings in a small one gallon tote. The smaller net pot and tote lets the roots grow faster. This is what you want in the first few weeks. I just started a new grow, my seedling is 2 weeks old... and i have lots of roots in the tote. Its almost...

    HELP PLEASE. 3 week old seedlings in DWC. Leaves yellowing/browning/curling down.

    You can go pretty close with T-5's... but i think a little room between the light and plant wont hurt. Also, dont worry... These plants are like weeds... they will snap right back!

    Technical Seed Question...

    Interesting... My bloom room does get chilly during lights off. Im a basement grower and i let the nightime temps dip down to 60 or so. My light on temps rarely exceed 80. Thanks!

    nutrient help for DWC

    Make sure you add your nutes for the amount of water you have in your tub. Your 18 gal. tub may only hold 14 gallons if not filled to the top. I like GH Grow/Micro/Bloom. Its cheap and works great. Another tip... Start light with the nutes... 1/2 strength... and work your way up. Make sure you...

    Technical Seed Question...

    These were self pollinating... I had about 4 lower branches that i caught a couple of flowers on... caught too late.... and ended up with some seeds from those branches only. The rest of the grow was mint. My plants were HUGE... 6 footers... see my grow below. I might try to germ a couple and...

    Technical Seed Question

    Hello all-- Seed question. In my last indoor grow... I had a female plant that had a couple of hermi branches. I think it was due to stress... not enough light... the plant was huge. I ended up with about 20 seeds from that plant. Can I use those seeds? Are they feminized? Will they become...

    My plants need help..

    It could be a multitude of things. Those plants look way stressed out. Don't Veg under HPS. Go to Lowes, and buy a couple of dome lights, Y splitters for 2 bulbs, 26W 5200K CFL's and a power strip. Veg under 5200 CFL's and you will get amazing results. You temps are way too high. I suspect that...
