Wow jester you took that way too personally..that wasnt even directed to you cunt nugget. Obviously there's pros and cons to it (if it works) and I too made that point. RIU is for growers to talk to each other and help everyone out but there is def some haters in this 26 page thread. The point I...

I just want to start by saying that the closed mind people are haters! Whats so wrong with JUST TRYING a new way of cloning? Just to see if it works! This hobby is all about trial and error. Im sure that not everything the haters have ever done has worked. I think root cloning would work best...

Red stems can mean a few things. When I had red stems it was because of heat. Im pretty sure thats the most common reason. The plants could also be stressed. It might even be the strain like some other people have said. oyouknow..more info on the grow? What are the temps, RH, water pH...etc...

Def nute burn. Flusing would be your best way to try and save them. You need to use a lot of water and check your pH (6.5 would be the best) cause you don't want salt build up either. Good luck! bongsmilie

I would def suggest putting in a 4" fan ASAP for exhaust!! I use a 4" inline duct fan with a 7 lb. carbon filter in my flowering but it's quite a bit bigger and it keeps my temps perfect. Something to keep in mind is that when your temps exceed around 85-90F your plants will stop growing for...

Hey everyone thanks! I do have a heat pad underneath the tote. How long should I keep that on for? I know the warmer medium encourages chemicals to develop roots, Im just afraid to fry them up! I think Im gonna have to say fuck the rockwool and go back to dirt because I haven't had any success...

Hey I need some major help and quick(ish). I need to make a shit ton of clones for the outdoor growing season which where I am starts mem day weekend pretty much. I have plenty of mothers right now with lots of clones but I have tried so many different ways of cloning and nothing has been...

Hey thanks cannatari!! DEF +reps for that! I'll update and let you know how things go. Im only going to take a few clones tonite just to see how they do! Happy growing! :peace:

Hey folks! Im not too new to growing, but new to rockwool. Ive had a really hard time lately with my clones. I've been attempting to grow in red part cups cut in half with plain dirt, use Dip n Grow, and had the clones on 24 hours light with a humidity tent under 3 100W CFLs. I never had any...

I've heard that stressing the plants even a little isn't good for them. They like living stress free with a great environment. And I don't think your yield changes very dramastically anyways. What types of techniques were you thinking of using? And Typhon..I'm a miss :-) I know there's not...

Hey there! That's the schedule I've been doing (feed, water, water) and about that about of time in between. When your plants get bigger they will need more water also. Im in the middle of my third grow and starting my fourth and I don't think I've had any problems with food or water. My plants...

Hey JadeLeaf! The only time I water the clones is when I first cut them. And that's only a little moisture on the top of the dirt so Im not really even watering. The only water they get is from spray and humidity. I think I saved a few of them but Im not too worried about it. I've got plenty of...

Damn some of those prices are ridiculous!! I used to buy really good dank hydro for $800 a QP...then it went up to $1750 a half pound and $3500 for a pound. I was selling it for $40 an eighth. Ive seen people selling brick for like $25 or $30 an eighth though. You can get it cheap if you know...

Hey everyone!! Just wanted to update on my girls. The 5 flowering plants that had mites (which I successfully got rid of with no pest strips) ended up yielding 5 and a half ounces! Not too bad considering they were living with mites their whole lives! And so far everything has smoked great. I...

Victory is going to taste sooo sweet JadeLeaf! The no pest strips will help you 100%. If you're still battling with the vegging plants then I would set the strip in the dirt with the plants. Stand it up right and make sure you keep your fan on. You'll notice a difference immediately! I would...

I've heard that 24 hours of darkness prior to harvest will plump up the resin glands. I dont think that 48 would hurt though. Im not so sure about doing it outdoors. It would be pretty hard to cover the plants for a whole day..

Hey there! Sounds like you're about right. I've heard good relative humidity for flowering is 40-60%. And I would try to keep your temps around 72-75F. Try not to exceed 85F because that can't stunt growth for up to 3 or 4 days. If your temp drops 15F when your light turns off be careful. Dont...

Ok well, pyrethrum is a natural remedy and used with another kind of mite killer should do the trick. And JadeLeaf, considering you already have the pyrethrum I would give it a try. If you're growing indoors there's a good chance there are no natural predators. I would suggest using your spray...

Did you use any rooting hormone? If you used a powder that can sometimes over do it and kill off the cuttings. I use a rooting gel which is much more efficient. It seeps into the stem and you can't really use too much. When you took the cuttings what did you do with them? I put mine in small...

Hey JadeLeaf! I've heard good things about pyrethrum being a natural miticide. You should apply 2-3 applications at fice to ten day intervals. Also make sure you're room and tools and everything are clean. Since eggs hatch every 5-10 days, the second spraying will kill new hatchlings and left...
