    Clone help! (First clone.aero bucket/dwc system) "broken root please help!"

    x2 As stated above ^^ She's pretty late into flowering to be cloning. Run 24/0 to force back into veg. Also...Do not keep the clone directly under the lights (as you normally would do); but instead, move it farther away (or raise the lights it's under). This will help prevent the clone from...

    Master Kush and PPP (LST) 2 weeks into flowering

    I just wanna show you guys/girls where my ladies are at. Two of the girls are Master Kush and two are PPP (Pure Power Plant). They were veg'd mainly outside, then brought inside for flowering. For propagation techniques I did: LST (Low Stress Training) and FIM'd the tallest colas late in the...

    Bud Growth Slowed?

    The bulb isn't a metal halide conversion right? Still an hps? Your plants are probably growing more because of the sudden increase in available energy. You did increase it by a nice 67%. Other than that, the plants (mainly the shorter ones) are also attempting to reach the 'optimal distance'...

    Help 1st time grower

    Root-Bound! Move that girl to a bigger pot asap! It's looking nice and healthy, but has been stunted from bushing-out. Plants are brilliant with how they allocate their resources. Taking your plant as an example: After 1 - 2 weeks, the root-system has "discovered" the size/limits of the...

    NEEM OIL for Life!

    Anytime!! :-P My bottle says to make a 0.5% dilution. Which makes sense cause it's the concentrated version. Double-check your bottle to make sure. But yea, I love how many uses you get out of it!

    NEEM OIL for Life! (pest control)

    I can't confirm that from experience, but it literally can't hurt to try. I would post the list of pests that it 'controls' but it's just waaaay too long haha. I can confirm that I sprayed it on plants that were only 3 weeks away from harvest, and it decimated everything while not changing the...

    NEEM OIL for Life!

    I just need to say that Neem Oil is by far the best method of pest control I have found. I know that pests (or even the thought of) will make any-level grower lose sleep at night. But I hope this thread will enlighten individuals on how easy it is to SAFELY take full control of your plants...

    PLZ HELP!!! Carbon filter stopped working Urgent odor prob

    DON'T put the buds in an air-tight container, UNLESS you are going to pour the buds out at least once a day to crisp-back up. Even if the buds feel dry to you, chances are they are still wet on the inside. After about 6-7 hours in a jar, the moisture is reabsorbed evenly through-out the buds...

    root blocked by shell

    Similar thing happened to me this season. I germinated four seeds, using saucers/paper-towels, and then threw em in the soil. A few days later when they all sprouted, one had the seed still attached to the top. Any time this happened before, the seed usually pulls right off, but this time it...

    First MMJ Grow 250w DR60

    They're looking pretty, you're doing just fine. How far away is your lamp from the tops of the plants? Tips: The plants are growing really wide leaves. This is either genetics, or a response to being a little farther away from the light than it wants to be. You do want to have a 12-18''...

    My Light Fixture Fell Close to Seedling During Night!

    I would have to say yes. But I would trim the dead parts off of the two smaller leaves (roughly half), followed by misting again. As long as you didn't cook the apical meristem, you're good. The plant isn't going to make the dead parts alive again, but don't worry about that. The trimming...
