    Can I put it into veg for a THIRD time?

    don't wanna give up the genotype from what came from bagseed, and want to clone. this is an old plant - eight months from sprout to crop. it got thrown into flowering at an early age, for sexing. at desired size, it was thrown into flowering again. bottom line: will a cloned plant...

    Pyrethrin-based foggers - can plants be damaged by using it too much?

    Doktor Doom, etc. The spray foggers used to control spidermites. Those little buggers are like an endless invading Persian army! I need to use it repeatedly - if I kill them off once, there are more a few days later. I need to get it to the point where there are few surviving mites (I'm sure...

    Nute burn in flowering - what are the consequences? (also a Tiger Bloom gripe thread)

    What happens when you're 2-3 weeks from harvest, and you get obvious Tiger Bloom -induced nute burn? (this can also be a complaining thread about Tiger Bloom too, that stuff burns burns burns even at half strength.) If the majority of fans leaves are okay, but only a few colas are affected...

    Doktor Doom - Is it possible to use too much?

    Controlling spidermites is tough. Is using it daily for a period of three or four days hard on the plant? Should it be used sparingly, or intensely until the signs of spidermites are gone? I've never had a problem with too much DD - but does it stunt flowering or plant growth if it is used...

    Jimson weed

    I am growing it as a decorative and partly curious if it can be used to teach vermin to not snack in my garden. Has anyone grown jimson weed? I do not plan on experimenting with its psychoactive properties. I'll stick with my cannabis. But just out of curiosity, is there anyone out there who...

    Ferts-to-Flush: When should one discontinue nutes during flowering?

    I find it hard to go by breeders' recommendations for flowering time, and have learned to stick with watching the percentage of amber trichromes. That being said, it's hard to know when to discontinue giving flowering fertilizer. A plant could be ready at seven weeks; a plant could be ready...

    Severe light disturbance during flowering.

    It happens to everybody at some point. Screwing up my light timers is a problem I've had in the past - it's the "on" and "timer" switched that has gotten me. Power failures too. What happens to a plant in flowering mode, when it inadvertently spends 24 hours under light? What would...

    What is the consensus on cloning after flowering?

    I've read a lot of cloning FAQs, but none of them seem to answer the question: Can you successfully take clones from a plant after it has flowered?

    Hermie-ing: How often does it actually happen?

    I have heard from some that if you even breathe wrong on your plant, it will hermie. I've heard the same with nutrient deficiency, light leaks, over/underwatering, or any sort of plant abuse will result in hermies, and right quick. Is this really the case? During my successful grows, I...

    DIY bong, parts bought from Ebay.com

    I bought some pyrex glassware from Ebay - in total, purchases came to less than $50. I already had drillbits for glass. I bought grommits from the hardware store for a couple bucks. The expensive part was buying the "rose" for it - the local headshop charged me an arm and a leg. What do...

    "DAY 1" of flowering - exactly when?

    Say that when you go to flowering, it's a week-long transition of an hour a day. When exactly is "day 1" of flowering? The first day you cut back from 18/18? The first day you start 12/12? Or the first day you see signs of actual flowering?

    Cloning: How big can the clone be?

    Let's say one has a plant that needs to stay in veg longer, and whose length needs to be controlled. I've read several on-line cloning guides. While they state a minimum size/length, they do not indicate a maximum clone size. The main cola on the plant needs to be knocked back a good six...

    Don't know the strain, don't know if it's ready

    came from bagseed. ~2 months flowering. plant form resembles indica with a little sativa. this photo is four days old. smells piney. lots of purple in leaves. nothing available to look at trics under magnification. from what i understand, it's pretty much impossible to guess a strain, but...

    Adding LED screw-in bulb to CFL grow?

    Has anyone used the PAR38 screw-in LED lights? They are found on Ebay etc. They have 168 LEDs and can be bought for vegetative stage (blue) or flowering (red). They use 14w. Would adding this to a CFL grow provide additional benefit? My hypothetical situation is: Should one add one of these to...
