Magnesium. If it were burnt from the lights, the buds wouldn't look so good. Being that the buds still look good, you have nutrient problems. And, from the looks of it (and I've had this problem as well), it's magnesium deficiency. Your leaves will not recover as far as looks go. You're stuck...

It could be a number of things. But the last two on your list don't factor into your issue. You should be looking at your nutrients. As I understand it, too much nitrogen contributes to the airy buds. I don't know how exactly, but that's what I've learned. My last grow, I followed the directions...

You want to jar them at 50% and the true final weight will be as hardroc said, "20 - 30% of wet weight". You'll lose the extra 20% to 30% over the cure period. That's what the burping does, lets out excess moisture.

Yeah, those pics aren't very clear. It doesn't look as though the water is draining properly. Looks like you have some standing water along with the temps which may be causing your problems. Your roots don't seem rotted but they do seem slimy. The only thing helping is that it's draining as much...

Post up pics of your plants. If pH is dropping, it would show up on the leaves first. If you have root rot, I don't think it's because of the pH balance. Chances are it's because of the temperature. do you have pics of your root zone?

It sounds as tho shock may be the case. Instead of taking them out of the dome immediately, uncover the dome over the course of day and even give it another day or two to acclimate before the actual transplant. How developed are your roots when you do the transplant? Assuming that they're small...

In my last grow, it took the males over a week to show balls. The females followed a few days later with small pistils. The timeline in this particular grow is Day 1 of Flower @ 10/13/09 Male @ 10/23/09 Female @ 10/27/09 The good thing is that the male will show it's sacs before the female. I...

I am going to ignore the silly shit that this thread has turned into. And yes, I am an African American. I am also a grower. The original inquiry is NOT stupid or dumb or anything. It's just a misconception that got misunderstood and then, I have to say, a bunch of pure fuckin idiots hopped on...

I have to agree here. The reason for the deficiency is not just natural dying off. The deficiency comes about due to flushing as the plant isn't getting anymore nutrients so the plant is using up the stores that are left in the leaf. That's what causes the actual yellowing of the leaves, not...

The truth is that most times, the postal service simply doesn't catch these types of packages. They are way too small. However, the chances are not zero. The truth is that they know where these shipments originate from so that tends to limit the amount of searching needed. Even still, there are...

Go to Amazon.com and type Jorge Cervantes. Every grower should have that book on short notice. Also, look online for the OG growfaq and download it. As far what to do now, water it, plain water, and make sure it has good drainage. Constantly check the soil as it may dry out. When it sprouts...

I'll repeat what I mentioned on another site. The DEA can still do what they want. They can ignore this policy if they choose to do so. As long as local police are calling in the feds, that memo doesn't mean shit. Sooner or later, every business (and everybody) makes a mistake. Local cops will...

I've never used one but I've heard of them being used. Sure, if you have access to it, knock yourself out.

it really depends on your space. it may not make sense to use HID lighting at all. what's your grow space dimensions? It's not the ballast that will catch fire. It's the hot glass flying from an exploding bulb (at around 1800F, I think), that will instantly ignite whatever is flammable. just...

Chances are you have fungus gnats. You can use cedar oil which is the basis of GoGnats. If you can find some plain cedar oil, just mix that in with water and throw that in the soil. Cedar oil will f up any larvae and the flies can't handle it so they'll go. They like plenty of moisture so...

Your problem is that you've got TWO 70w HPS lights in that tight space.. HEAT FACTORY. When you're talkin in inches, CFL should be the only light you use. I don't think you'll be able to move enough air to help your situation especially if you're moving it through a filter. I'd dump one of the...

You could just isolate the males and collect the pollen to make more seeds. You can always just leave them in there to do the job naturally. However, if you collect the pollen, you can just brush a few buds to get seeds while the other buds remain unseeded. That's what I think folks should be...

You are identifying sex properly. And yes, you can reveg the female and take clones. I believe those buds/pistils are preflowers, not actual bud sites, yet. So, if you plan to reveg, do so NOW.

I am not as experienced with clones as I should be but I believe that's natural. I can't remember why it happens but it'll correct itself once rooted. Also you shouldn't use cardboard as it will breed mold especially with hydro.

well sure. Just don't go big. I'm helping quite a few people get around just such issues with 150w HPS setups. Nothing too major but if you top and scrog, you can yield a good amount. it's all about going big in a small space. All you need to do is hit up IKEA, get a wardrobe, and outfit it...
