    Sharksbreath or sharkbutt?

    I bought some smoke sold as sharksbreath not too long ago, and I was pleased to find 2 seeds. Both germinated and are currently in my garden at a nice height of 12" or so. The leaves are very distinctive on both plants. They appear as one would expect a MJ leaf logo to be drawn by a cartoon...

    Can you transfer a mature plant from soil to DWC bucket?

    I have a Skunk clone in a 3gal soil pot. Will I kill it if I attempt to rinse the dirt off and stick it in hydroton?

    Genetics are everything

    I just finished hanging the first plant I ever grew to completion up to dry.:eyesmoke: It is just bagseed, kind of a trial run to get my feet wet. I do have some Greenhouse seeds Super Lemon Haze, about 8 weeks behind this plant. For anyone considering growing, I have some advice because I...

    Where do I find amber trichomes?

    I have a kids hobby microscope, one of those 100x/300x/600x deals for about 25 bucks. I grabbed a leaf from the middle of the main cola, and stuck it under 100x. At that magnification, 5 or 6 trichomes are visible at a time along the leaf edge, and all had amber tops. Harvest time? Or is there...

    fimming/topping my SLH issue

    Educated guesses on how long till harvest?

    These are my first two plants grown to completion. :mrgreen: I have no clue as to genetics, they are bag seed, but a few people who have gotten a peek see one sativa dominant and one Indica dominant. Who knows? This is them at 48 days under 12/12...How long till I am finished? Approximately...

    Can I Take Clones Yet?

    I have a feminized Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze that is about 45 days from seed. Is it ready? Can I take several at once or is it better to take one branch at a time as they mature/grow? I will be using rapid rooter plugs, any special considerations with those? Here are pics of the whole plant...

    Narrow Stem Problem

    ***Pics in 5th post below.*** I have a plant that has a main stem about an inch up that narrows to about 2/3rds of it's diameter, and then continues normally. As a plant, it is growing far slower than the rest. The plant is about a month and a half old, about 12" tall with 4-5 nodes. I'd like to...

    humidity dome question

    I have started a dozen bagseeds for the heck of it while I await some clones. I dropped them directly into rapid rooter plugs under a humidity dome. 72 hrs in and I have some decent growth occurring.:bigjoint: My question is, when do I remove the dome and drop the lights down to prevent stretching?

    Lights and germination

I have a seed tray with a humidity dome and warming mat, with rapid rooter plugs as the grow medium. I am 48hrs in and a couple seeds are splitting open, what I want to know is when to add light...

    pros and cons

    I am off to the hydro store to make some final purchases. :bigjoint: In terms of ease of use, and cost...rockwool or hydroton or a combination? My first 4 will be from seed.

    Buckets and drains

    I'll be putting some drains in the bottom of some 3 gal buckets I have, and I'd like to use 1/2" pvc since I have a surplus of it. Is there a 1/2" drain fitting? Maybe a 1/2" reducer I can buy for a standard drain? Am I better off cutting a piece off another fitting to glue it in place?

    DIY Hydro question

    I have been looking at some of the pricier systems, and I may have located a cheaper way. Hardware stores sell a vinyl sheath for 4"x4" fence pots, I wonder if anyone has ever used these with 3" baskets for their system? Possible?

    Minimum hps wattage

    I am in the process of designing my grow room. Will a 250w hps be enough for flowering 6 plants in a 4' x 4' space? I am on a budget! LOL

    21 day wait?

    Last week I saw a Dr and got his recommendation. While there his nurse informed me that with copies of the recommendation I am legal 21 days after my check is cashed by the state. Is this new, and should I wait to start my grow?
