I used this outside all summer, only stopping once they were well into flowering. Between the Neem and the pyrethrins, it's going to knock out almost any pest you encounter. The problem with using this while flowering is that Neem is not water-soluble, so it can persist on your plants for weeks...

It's been about a week. We've had a few rains and it's turned cooler, but they've been fattening up. The Church and one of the Cindy's split at their trunks and were flopping around. I did my best to tie them up, but next year everything is getting LST I haven't seen any rot yet, although I had...

Here we are at day 7. The plant actually appears as healthy as ever. No signs of stress. The second picture shows how all the foliage has completely re-oriented to follow the sun (this only took a day or two). I included a picture of the cracked stem, which is hosting ants that are lapping up...

Good advice mlore, +rep

If you have a branch that looks sick and withered, yet is not broken, it's probably an infection of some kind. An infection can start at a single point in a plant, then spread slowly to the to the base of the branch and from there to the rest of the plant. Remove the affected branch near the...

The reason you should think twice about re-using your soil is the same reason farmers/gardeners rotate their crops--to discourage infestations from disease and pests. What happens is that during the first grow, your plant is likely to pick up a virus or fungus of some sort. The numbers that...

This is Durban Poison from Dutch Passion, at the 41st parallel. It's going to be the first to finish from my grow. It's a little on the small side because it wasn't started until mid-June.

Well that's a different story. If you stick your chopped plant in a bucket of water right away, the plant would continue drawing water the best it could, provided circulation could be restored. You sound like you've cloned before, so you must know that the first thing that happens (even in a...

Nope. But good luck with the two. I'd be curious to see how it turns out...the grow and what you think of the smell.

Okay, that will work. I did some autoflowers early in the year, AK47 and Hindu Kush. I'm also growing a bunch of different photoperiod strains, first grow so I'm not any sort of expert. The autoflowers were as strong and similar in scent to the photoperiods that are finishing now. Is that what...

Minutemaid, cutting off the head is actually the better analogy in this case. Once circulation in the plant stops, all anabolic processes will end, including production from the resin glands. I'm not speaking from growing experience, but it's the case in almost all biological systems. If you're...

Too late.

Don't get caught up in the actual date of 12/12 outdoors; it's within a week after the Equinox for everybody in the Northern Hemisphere (table for US found at http://www.usno.navy.mil/USNO/astronomical-applications/data-services/duration-us ). Your plants will normally begin flowering long...

Sounds like the perfect spot. They look good.

If those are peat cups, just plant the cup into a bigger pot. Do not try to remove the seedling from the peat cup because when you try to pop it out either a) the root system will not be developed enough to hold the soil together, and you'll separate the roots from the rest of the plant or b)...

Sure is top-heavy (in a good way). Why are you bending it, was it becoming too noticeable? Was the stem still pretty flexible? Just curious.

MJ is an annual plant. It can vegetate almost indefinitely, but it will die once it completes flowering.

I soaked them, but I did it on a warm breezy day so the moisture would evaporate quickly and not contribute to fungus growth. This might answer your questions: http://www.agf.gov.bc.ca/pesticides/infosheets/bt.pdf According to this..."Thorough coverage and proper application rate is essential."

Wow, they look fantastic. Fat and frosty. We're supposed to get rain a couple times this week...keep an eye out for mold.

Funny, you should get that looked at!
