I only cut what's dead and damaged. You ever had a house plant at home or work? It's like that. If the tips die you cut the leaf a little back. Mostly because it looks ugly if you don't, but also because some think it decreases the chance of your plants attracting pests. Meanwhile your plant...

Use sharp sterile scissors and trim away dead tissue. Double check your setup and move on. They'll recover just fine.

Nothing wrong with his containers. I start in one gallon. I could just as easy start in 20g only it would be a waste of space and soil. Using regular potting soil however can stunt plants. Not keeping the light close enough causes lankiness. Over watering causes root root and nutrient deficiency...

Everyone does things a little differently. I like using Miracle Gro Seed Starting Mix to germinate, but then I switch to regular potting soil by the third or forth week. I typically grow 4-6 at a time using a single 200w CFL bulb and I keep the light about three inches from the top leaves...

Doing good. One is a little lanky but that's probably from pregerming in darkness. Keep your lights on them and check on them daily. You'll be fine.

Find out what the humidity is like before you commit. 70°F / 70% RH is a good area to be in.

I like jewelry loupes over pocket scopes. Although if you really want to see detail and got extra money, get a digi USB scope

I don't have the full back story but I know OG means Ocean Grown and originates from west coast California. Today there are lots of strains with the OG name attached. As far as I know its just a marketing gimmick and you see this with other strains as well, like Kush, White Widow, White Rhino...

I been smoking OG 18 daily for about a year now. It's a good Indica strain, yields great, smells strong (old school chronic smell) , but the buds aren't as pretty as some other OGs. Mine came out a bit dark and fluffy so it doesn't move fast. Light green small compact buds is what people in my...

Your most likely feeding to much or chasing pH by fixing what isn't broke. In closed systems like bubble, dwc, etc hydro nutrients are best. When growing in soil, traditional fertilizers based on manure and meals perform better.

My go to is ice cold soapy water. Whenever I reach for something stronger I'm targeting a specific pest.

When I grew this strain it was pretty easy to tell. The flowers plump up and develop a nice deep green. It just looks done. However to be sure, look at bud with a jewelers loupe. You want cloudy white trichromes. Clear means it's not ready and amber means it's over ripe. You'll always have a bit...

I wouldn't bother covering the plants. Let them flower and finish on their own schedule. Its not just the hours of daylight. My indicas finish in October and my Sativas hang around till November. Seedlings will die but established plants can take a beating. Main thing is to keep the root zone...

Looks like you forgot to post pics. Anyway, as long as they are green and upright your fine. I clone in a cup of water and just change out the water daily. Hasn't failed me yet. Usually takes two to three weeks to see major changes. Its normal to see some yellowing near the leaf tips. Again,as...

Another trick I learned from the nice people on the gardenweb forums is sowing them, without presoaking the soil or the seeds. Placing the container outside in December and letting mother nature handle it all. Winter sowing was the nickname given to this method. Not for those with a few seeds...

The paper towel method works great for a lot of people, but others like myself do better using the old school method of sowing directly into dirt. A quick soaking is fine, but extended soaking puts the seed at risk for developing rot and mold. Here is what I do: Soak seed in cup of room...

Any plans on putting them in the ground or in bigger pots?

I don't see a problem with cutting the top off your plant. Just use sharp sterilized shears, cut at an angle, and seal the wound with garden tape.

Looks like a nutrient deficiency to me. The plant appears to be stealing from old growth. New grow looks okay. I don't have first hand experience with the nutrients your using, but in my experience hydroponics nutrients don't do well in outdoor setups. The nutrients leach (wash away) to quickly...

I buy from Attitude during the big sales and always ask for stealth shipping. I pay with my debit card and have them shipped to my home address in California. While it's legal for me to grow, importing seeds from outside the country is still illegal. If your going to get caught, it will be at...
