    Hempy bucket PH issue - help!

    So I'm doing a hempy grow, 100% perlite. I started watering at aprox 6.0 ph, everything seemed ok until I had some very minor deficiency issues about 8 or 9 days ago. I checked the PH of my runoff and it was coming out at aprox 7-7.5. That is way too high. Since then I've been watering at...

    Grow room temps stays constant

    Since I bought my new fan, my grow room temps have been staying nice and low, around 75-78F. But, when the lights are off the temp doesn't drop any. This is because I turn my lights on at night. I've read that having higher temps when the lights are off can lead to fluffy stringy buds. Am I...

    Help me pick a fan

    When I first started 3 grows ago I went and picked up a cheap 250cfm axial fan from home depot. It worked fine because I've only done winter grows. This time around I'm going to need something a little more. Details: I'm using a homebox (aprox 3'x3'x7') which is in a walk in closet. Exhaust...

    So, I'm about a week away from harvest and I just noticed one of my plants has calyx and pistils growing on a fan leaf. I'm by no means a veteran grower, but this seems strange? I can post pictures if this is a rare occurence.

    Hempy Bucket Fert During Flowering Questions

    I'm on my 3rd grow overall, and my 2nd Hempy bucket grow. In each of my previous grows I have had issues with deficiencies during flowering. Most of them were due to me underfertilizing in general. This time around I've done much better and things are going well, I'm just ending my 2nd week...

    Hempy Buckets and Big Bloom

    Ok, so I'm in the middle of my first hempy grow. I have been using fox farms 3 part fert (grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom) in soil, but hempy isn't soil. My question is, per Azgrow in the hempy collective he said to leave out the big bloom because it is a soil based fert. But, on the fox...
