There's a saying that you can achieve approx 1g per 1 watt, so e.g 1000w HPS would give you approx 1000g of dried bud. Not sure how correct this is though. I've seen a few threads discussing it, but strangely enough i've never seen anyone share what veg time they had to achieve this result, if...

Why would you assume i got upset? I just explained the method i use and that its been successful for me over the years, it's been very rare that i've had to toss somehing. Maybe it's been pure luck but i'm not going over to the paper method with this success rate of germination. I really doubt...

I have 99%+ germ rate so far (growing for 10+ years), except this one time.. I use soil in party cups.. i don't like the idea of handling / planting the fragile seed after it has already sprouted, also a bit more work with paper method than just planting it directly into the soil. It usually...

yes seems like i trashed them too fast, it was costly but also a good thing to learn ;)

I usually have a 99.9% success rate with seeds, germination usually takes 4 days, sometimes 5. I just put them in the soil, make sure it never dries out, its simple and it works. A while ago i bought a pack of seeds called Rockbud, spent a little more than i usually do (over $120), planted 5...

Ok, thx and yes I read about that recently, that wide pots are better than deep ones.

Ok good to know, thanks. I already did prune the roots at the bottom..

I've got a few clones that i had in 1,5l Cola bottles. They've been repotted for a week now into 3,5l smart pots (which are a lot wider). A few of those clones are a real shit hermie strain that i obviously dont want so i took them out of the pots. The roots has spread nicely downward, but...

Mad Hamish: yes i've started taking clones for this grow. I have one strain this time that isnt feminized (ICE) so i think i'll use one of those clones as a mother. Urban: heh, just recieved GSC myself, but from Californa Connection. I've heard some bad things about them though.. Looked at...

Mad Hamish: You're probably right, i'm lazy. Actually this grow i only have 12 plants so this time i think i could have inspected them more often, but i bet i would have missed it anyways, so hard to see these tiny things.. Nutes and Nugs: why? i know they're seed pods from many years of...

I usually grow from feminized seeds and usually after ~40 days of 12/12 i see a plant or two with seed pods. I inspect my plants from time to time, though not daily and not each internode (that would be really tiresome), but usually i never see the male characteristics, i guess its because it's...

I usually rotate my plants but i also have very long flowering times, usually around 66-70 days even for Indicas (maybe 80 days or so if i count from 12/12). Could that be he issue then? I won't be doing it for this grow..

It's really different how they respond to super cropping. I've done it this grow to around 20 plants (including clones), some of them responds really well and the side stems will start growing like crazy, while on others it's like it's really determined to have a main stem and that it can't be...

Papaya, 35 days since 12/12 .

haha ok, i've always thought they've looked really happy when they do that, but i also had some vaguge memory of it being something bad. Good to hear :)

oh, I forgot to ask, in that last pic, with the leaves pointing upwards like that. Is that heat stress or lack of Co2 or something different? i remember reading about it, but like many other things i've now forgotten why they do that lol

My grow room is a walk in closet with 12 plants, this is my first grow where i use a 600w bulb hanging vertically. Another 600w is placed like normal (horizontal) in a diamond reflector. Strains are: Ice, Papaya, Domina, C-Plus, Rombolt. Pretty sure there's one more, but i've forgotten which...

I have this rather old (80's i would guess) armature for a e27 CFL bulb, it says "max 40w" on a sticker. Would it be dangerous to use a 45w CLF in it? It's made in some kind of metal so the armature itself should be safe, i'm not sure if there's a difference in the electronics? I guess when...

Ah, that's great. Thanks :)

Completely forgot about one of my cups (left it on a shelf), so now the seedling is kind of spindley (which i hate and always try to avoid). It can still manage to stand on its own, but it's taller than usual. If i burry it deeper in the soil, will it develop roots from the still fresh stem...
