** This doesn't just go for WW, but all strains. While there are some genetic consistencies with different seedbanks' strains of the same name, they are not always the exact same

What people need to understand is that one "White Widow" is not the same as another. The "original" white widow is a hybrid of Brazilian and Indian descent. I am currently growing Nirvana's WW, and the site says 8-10 weeks. If time is the issue, but money/craftiness isn't, I would suggest a...

Topping: complete cut at the stem, allows for the plant to split into two tops. FIMing: incomplete cut at the apical (top) node, which causes the plant to split into multiple tops.

I agree with str8, you might be burning those ladies. I would ease up the nutes just a tiny bit and see if the yellowing/wilting stops. If not, it could be a pH issue.

So I've got one plant growing in a 3-pod Aerogarden and it's a week into flower. Right now it has a hanging 125W CFL grow bulb, along with 2 x 26W, 1 X 23W and 1 X 42W CFLs. I was thinking of getting an LED UFO 100W for the rest of its flowering, but would this probably be enough for the plant...

We're at almost a week from switching to 12/12, and it looks like she's developing what I'm guessing are pre-flowers? They're bumps with little pistils in the middle. So exciting!! :D :D There's also a photo of the actual set-up. I switched one of the 23W CFLs with a 13W red CFL since plants...

Oh also, while I did say that because you're already in flowering, the trimming of smaller bud sites is definitely better for the vegetative phase. This lets the plant recover if you happen to take too much foliage, and allows it some time to grow into its shape

Yeah you're probably going to want to remove those little popcorn bud sites; they're harder to harvest and take away potential energy from the larger, higher main colas. When you cut these what basically happens is that the main colas get huge because now the plant is using all of its energy on...

That seems like overkill for one plant, especially when it's only a little over a foot tall right now. I probably should have mentioned that this is a closet grow. Maybe it looks bigger from the picture, but it's actually a pretty stout plant from how many times I (over) topped it. Also there...

Hey guys. This is my White Widow plant from Nirvana at 10 weeks of vegging. I just turned her schedule to 12/12 and am very excited :D She's growing in an Aerogarden 3 and had a single 5.5 mL packet a week. I'm thinking of doing a little under two packets a week for flowering. Also 10 weeks...

Definitely looks like a pH issue. I also agree that if it didn't eat up too much time, I would consider starting over. If not though, another issue is definitely your lights. I'm growing with CFL's too, and you really need to get those bulbs as close to the plant as possible without burning /...

The Cannabis Grow Bible by Greg Green Best grow book I've ever read.

Has anyone had much luck in cloning with Aerogarden's pods/sponges? I've been using Rootech cloning gel and it hasn't been working out. The first attempt involved putting the clone straight into the unit. The clone died, and on my second try I put the clone in a sort of humidity dome type...
