Hello everyone, I'm having an irritating problem with this unknown sap sucker. Can anyone identify? I am inMolokai, Hawaii around 1400ft if that helps. Noticed them only on my eggplants but I'm afraid they may move to my other solanaceous plants. Also are there any recommendations on how I can...

I've grown both ghost and scorpion. The ghost peppers took a lot longer to establish than the scorpions, and with that said, once they've established their roots well (second true leaf set) they seemed to take off. Never had any problems with growing. The ghost peppers love heat and humidity and...

Hi everyone, I am having a weird problem with mainly my tonatoes and basil. As you can see in the pic that I hope uploads, it appears to me to be a type of insect. I am currently on the island of Molokai, HI and we have never seen this before.The roots seem to still be white but it appears as if...

Well it looks like I've been worrying for nothing. These looks like male preflowers to me. Can someone confirm?

Heres what the one plant looks like as of today. i know dolomite takes a while to become active in the soil, im just wondering if i should feed with alaska fish emulsion in a few days because i am going to be away for a week and not be able to care for them during that time. or should i just...

Ok cool, thanks. What would be the best way to raise pH? I have read that lime only affects the top part of the soil

I just tested the soil using a soil test kit I forgot I had. pH is in the range of 6-6.5. Would it be a good idea to add some lime next time I water? I have some Pennington fast acting lime.

I will let you know tomorrow b/c my tap water is pretty hard so I'm letting it sit out tonight and I'll measure it asap.

Thanks for all the responses guys I really do appreciate the help. What is it suggested that I do to ammend these problems besides repotting? Shouild I just water with plain water the next time or use dilluted nutes? Also, are there any recommended nutes that I can get at my local garden store...

Well I've only used the Jacks fert once. before that i have been using Alaska fish emulsion 5-1-1. the only reason i went to Jacks is b/c i was seeing K deficiency which was cleared up easily with the Jacks. theres 2 plants under approx. 150w cfls but im not gonna step up my wattage until i see...

I have 2 plants that have the same feeding schedule. Last time I fed was about 5 days ago, but I also foliar feed. For waterings I use between 1/4 and 1/2 strength Jack's Classic 20-20-20 mixed with 1tbsp molasses and 1 tsp Epsom salt all per gallon. I foliar feed every morning with 1/4 strength...

Obviously not the best setup, but I do what I can with what I have lol Sorry pics are sideways

I would use something different but for my situation, cfls are by far the best way to go. Last grow i had 2 plants under ~130w cfls and i yielded around 30 grams. For this grow i wanted to up the wattage slightly but only flower one plant to see what my yield would be compared to last years...

I have 2 bagseed plants that i want to veg to about 9 or 10". my light setup consists of 4 23w 6500k cfls and 1 26w 2700k cfl totaling 118w, all have a reflector. i am wondering if this is enough to veg the plants to the said height because after i see if there are females, even if i have 2, i...

Yes, i would suggest small pot sizes combined with LST such as topping/fimming and bending. Currently i am trying a method i found on the forums called main-lining, gives either 4, 8, or 16 even kolas.

Yeah, 4 6500k 23w and one 2700k 26w cfl. probably gonna keep it like this till flower, then switch 2 of the 6500k bulbs out for 2 40w 2700k bulbs. i am hoping i will only have one female if i have any lol. also im going to try the "Main-lining" technique which is why i topped already.

Also i will add that for the last week i have been foliar feeding with 1/8 strength nutes, a small amount of dish soap, and a dash of epsom salt and i strongly recommend it.

Actually the shorter fatter leaved one is 18 days. The other is 25. I plan on vegging them till about 10-12" then inducing flowering.

Ive got 2 bagseed plants that I started 18 days ago. they have been under 2 cfl lights a piece one 6500k spectrum at 23 watts and one 2700k spectrum at 26 watts. i plan on adding another 6500k bulb to each.

i did forget to mention i mixed in some lime because of the pine compost. its slow release and it was added yesterday so i guess ill give it a few days and see what happens
