    Need a good source for clones in NorCal

    The real problem is getting bug free cuttings that are of a known variety which has been test-grown and proven to be a superior phenotype of the genetics. Most of the dispensaries all have bugs or they sell cuttings without having tested the yield potential and the quality of the genetics. If...

    Sick plant 1st week of flower.

    Regardless of what it looks like, I have the same advice... Do NOT screw with the plant's light schedule. Yes, it is too late to just go back to veg without really stressing the plant more. If the genetics are not rock-solid then you might even force a hermi by going back to veg after a week...

    HELP ! Pictures .

    Foil would work OK. Sure "hot spots" will occur, but I highly doubt if you would burn anything! The best thing is highly reflective flat white paint. Paint your floor and everything you can, the light will really be noticeably better. Getting more lights is always better. More light=more bud :)

    HELP ! Pictures .

    IMO, Leave the leaves on :) They are like solar panels that provide the real food (light-energy) for the plant. There is little that you can other than adding more lights or a mover. The reflected light the lower leaves are getting is better than nothing. If they get too little light, they...

    Best place to buy ballast kits wholesale for production??

    You can't compete with China. That is where many of the ballasts are being manufactured. Hoods, maybe... ballasts, no... you can't buy the parts for less than they will ship a complete unit with warranty.

    Help, about to transplant clones

    I would water with plain water until the nutes in the soil expired. I don't know how long that would be or the sunshine advanced #4.

    Help, about to transplant clones

    If you are using an inert medium like coco or peat moss or hydroponics mediums, then they need nutes at about 50% of full strength. However, if you are using soil, then the soil already has nutes in it and you can/will burn your plants from too much food. I hope this helps.

    What is causing this? Bugs or Nutes (my guess is nutes) +rep

    Thanks, Yes they were mine. :) They were Sensi Seed Bank's "Big Bud". They definitely lived up to their reputation. They were huge, but not as stoney as we had wanted. thanks again for the compliment.

    tips on getting Big colas

    Do you mean that you want something similar to the ones that are in my Avatar? LOL... :) Lots of light, good nutes at the optimal level and most important is your genetics! The ones in the picture are circa 2000 and they were Sensi Seedbank's "Big Bud". They were huge, but not so...

    Safe To Toke This?

    Gak is smokable. It tastes like shit, but it will get you high! Vape it if you can, if not... just smoke it. I've been there my self. Good Luck, I hope this helps.

    What is causing this? Bugs or Nutes (my guess is nutes) +rep

    Unless it is systemic or all over the plant, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Yes, some sort of nute issue is probably to blame, but I have a few leaves here and there all the time that have anomalies like this. They never seem to cause any issues or long-term damage. I hope this helps.

    Help please ...Ready to grow :D.. Its urgent but you know.. theyll just die..:(.. hah

    Yes, you water until it runs through. I know people that water every day, but I prefer to wait until it needs it and the coco dries out a bit. But then again, I also used 1/3 pearlite mixed with my coco pith. I think coco is great for plants that are kept for less than a year, however I've...

    Hanna, Oakton or Milwaukee?

    I've had a number of meters in a decade and a half..... My hannahs were my favorites but they broke more often than the oaktons which I still have one (a TDS-only meter) is service after almost 15-year.

    How important is it to flush?

    I have done extensive tests in the past on just this subject. These are my opinions based on real trials in a real study that we conducted a few years back. It took over a year and was conclusive: IMO: Why flush? What problems are you having? I don't understand why you would want to...

    Flushing, Harvesting 2 Strains HELP!!

    Why flush? What problems are you having? I don't understand why you would want to starve your plants at the exact moment they want food the most to "bulk" up in those final hours. Flushing is for when you are having problems and need to flush out salts. I've been growing hydroponically for...

    Seed germinated till leaves came out a little bit

    Just be careful. I just soaked 10 beans and forgot about them for a few days. They all did he same thing. I only killed one of the by being way too rough. I'm don't have a gentle touch and killed one of them. So, if you only have one seed, just be very careful. I would not use anything...

    Is it ok to have lights-off for 2 days?

    Yep, you will be fine. It is optimal to avoid things like this, but it will not do harm per se. I've done it both in purpose and by accident many times and no harm will come due to the 48-hours of darkness.

    How much of a pussy am I being?

    LOL, I had severely impacted teeth and it was a breeze. OK, there were a few discomforts, but overall it was smooth even with complications. IMO, The small amount of discomfort is nothing compared to the torture you've put yourself through.... Seriously, just do it. You are not being a...

    S.F. Dispensery

    As far as a dispensary, I don't know any anymore. All of my experience in SF was too long ago to be helpful. However, as far as your not "feeling it": Your tolerance has built up. Switch to oil and you'll get "that feeling' again, LOL.... Either stop for a while or keep climbing the ladder...

    Best high you have ever had?......doesn't matter what your on!

    This is easy. Background: I've done LSD and shrooms more than most. Did a lot of coke years ago, tried speed by accident a couple times (surprise ouch!), I currently vape 1g of honey oil (equivalent of 1 oz) of cannabis per day, I've "hippie flipped", and "candy flipped", and been on up...
