    How to use Boveda Packs

    I just harvested a little over 3 ounces dry from an auto-flower. I over dried my buds a little when I hung the branches because I live in an arid climate, and they are in jars curing now. The smell is changing from grassy to unique strain smell over about 2 weeks. I just ordered bovada packs...

    Can Plants grown in Coco Benefit from a nutrient spray to the leaves?

    I rarely hear of people spraying nutrients to the leaves. I've completed 3 indoor grows in Coco Coir. All I've used was General Hydroponic Grow and then Bloom. I was happy with my grows. I just want to know if it would be beneficial to make an additional nutritive spray to the leaves.

    Curing--Jars smell Piney??? Is there a fix

    I got taken off guard, not prepared to harvest 25 plants. My brother in law and I wet harvested (I know dry is better but we were using a spin pro). We moved all the buds and shake into a huge hanging wrack in a dark closet. I Turned an oscillating fan on low. The buds were dry in 2 days, I...

    Wet Harvest May be Drying too Quickly

    On Friday I wet trimmed 25 plants. I put all the buds and resulting shake on these huge drying racks under a rotating fan. Now its Sunday, and I suspect the buds are dry. I was hoping it would take a week, but I think all I'll need is 3 days. The humidity has been around 10%, but the air...

    Does anyone know how much progressive options clones cost? (Pacoima, So. Cal)

    I'm trying to order 20 new healthy clones. This company Progressive Options Genetics has many strains. They refuse to publish a price list. I need to know if they are $3 clones or $30. My guess is they are $8-$12 but I need to confirm that before I make the order.

    What should I do if my clones aren't taking?

    I bought 20 clones of San Fernando Valley. My guy told me 12 days till completion, then he asked for a few more because they were slow to root. Then he asked for a few more. These clones were not very robust. I've bought them from the same people before and they always look strong. I've had...

    How Desirable is the San Fernando Valley (SFV) OG strain?

    Is this strain desirable to grow? What can you tell me about the high. I grew Tahoe OG before and it was a nice grower and a desirable high. I have 20 clones being delivered to me tomorrow. I am kicking myself that I didn't choose the popular Girl Scout Cookie or some other strain. Did I...

    Can you use spin pro dry?

    I just bought a spin pro to take care of medium and popcorn buds. With prior experience its just not worth it to me to hand trim every bud, only top level colas. Does anyone know if I can use spin pro to trim dry. This would be advantageous because I can hang my branches to dry and then use...

    How do lights with a dimmer switch work?

    I have two 1000 watt HPS lights on a digital ballast. The ballast has a dimmer switch at 50%, 75%. and 100%. Can I assume that when I put my clones in that I can set it to 50% for a while so they get used to the lights. Does that really mean 500 watts? Then after a while I go to 75% and...

    Need advice on setting up an affordable CO2 system

    Hi I have an 8' x 4' x 7' grow area. In it I will have 20 plants--with the idea that I will grow many smaller plants instead of a few larger ones. I did this 2 times before and the results were great. Now my question is what kind of co2 system should I purchase. I just saw a product called...

    How do I build a system for growing clones?

    Right now I am starting a pretty large 20 plant grow. I just got my 99 plant exemption and I'm totally stoked. What I want to do with my extra plant allowances is start producing a regular supply of clones. Does anyone know how to do this or have links? In my imagination I see a 7' bakers...

    How do I neatly handle shake

    I had 2 pretty good sized grows last year. What I'm never prepared for is the harvest. Its like a big cluster fuck. I salvaged most of the good stuff, but I didn't have a methodical method of processing and disposing of other plant material. I cut off arms of the plant and hung them for a...

    Do I have too many lights? (4'x8'--2, 1000 W HPS)

    For my first two grows I had a 4'x4'x7' grow tent. I grew under a 600 W HPS light. It was pretty awesome! Now I have a 4 ft x 8 ft tent. I bought 2, 1000 W HPS lights with digital ballasts as an improvement. Someone mentioned this is going to be too much light for the plants. My room is...

    How do I design a clone room?

    Right now I'm growing 20 plants--the SFV strain. I bought 20 clones for $200 locally. Now my plants are sucking a few hundred dollars in electricity each month and I was thinking I could raise and sell clones to pay for the electricity. Is this doable--marketing the clones is not a problem...

    Can someone outline a harvesting plan for me?

    I have grown before--2 cycles, 10 plants, 4x4 tent, 1lb each cycle.. Both times I kind of dropped the ball in harvesting. Its a lot of dirty, sticky, time consuming work. I sold my equipment because I had a enough weed to last me and my wife for 2 years. Now I just went out and bought an 8 x...

    I have experience producing a kick ass crops with coco coir in a tent with 600 watt HPS...10 plants. Now I want to expand my business. I want to buy a many pod clone machine (no I don't care to build it myself for pennies on the dollar). What do I need to house bonsai like mothers? Can I...

    How can I speed up harvest: Trimming

    I've wet trimmed, I've dry trimmed...if you have 10 plants...trimming is a bitch! I've only done 2 cycles of 10 plants, so I'm inexperienced...but pretty successful. Other than hiring help, how can I make trimming quick and efficient. Honestly, after trimming a few dry oz, I threw the rest of...

    I think my clone has rooted, how do I know for sure?

    I took 8 cuttings 8 days ago. I have them in a humidity chamber with florescents. It would appear that some of the growth tips are making leaves. I think that means I can take them out of the humidity chamber. I took the most promising one and set it out...its been an hour and it looks a...
