so before humans came along, weed was just a plant in the wild. I'm sure it still is, somewhere, growing happily without any humans intervening. This got me to thinking.....what happens to all the pot plants out there that bud, grow, become beautiful plants and never get harvested? Somewhere...

Hey all - I'm having issues w/ plant size. In my attempt to make my plants bigger, I'm going to bigger pots to allow root growth. I've used 3 gallon pots and 5 gallon pots, but I see some pictures on here of bigger, healthier plants, in smaller pots. What size pots do you guys use? I wanna...

I know precisely jack about mixing marijuana strains, but I did...on accident. I had a Purple Power sativa hermie on me during a grow a while back. Had a Sweet Grapefruit in the same room. I didn't realize the PP pollinated until it was too late. The Grapefruit was a beautiful plant...big...

I wouldn't have believed if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes. I'm about 6-7 weeks into flowering my Neville's Haze. One in particular has grown taller than the rest. In my daily hermie check I noticed one of the fan leaves is spitting out a bud at the junction of the fingers. Anyone seen...

My dog has found out she likes to sneak a bud here and there off the table. The other day I found her chewing on a stem. She's a small dog, around 11 pounds. Some people I know feed their dogs weed generously and while I don't ever foresee me feeding it to her, is there any danger of her...

I've been using Fox Farms Happy Frog for germinating, then Oceans Forest for veg & flower. I usually use 3-5 gallon pots for flowering. Leaves me with a LOT of leftover soil. Anyone ever reuse their soil? I'm sure some of the nutes get depleted, but is there any way to put all this soil to...

I'm reading a lot about how moving autoflowers to 12/12 after sexing actually reduces yield. My MH is only 400w and is set on 18/6. My HPS on 12/12 is 600w. I've been keeping it under the MH until they show hairs, then moving them to the HPS on 12/12. Would it be better for me to keep them...

I see and read a lot about nitrogen deficiency. I also see where people say "add a little nitrogen." In the event of a nitrogen deficiency, what's the best thing to use and at what ratio?

Can someone direct me to a discussion/page/site that will break down PH levels for soil growers and how to raise/lower them, etc? I've looked through here, but I can't find anything so far. I've found where it describes how to figure out if your ph is off, but not how to fix it. My levels are...

I have two purple power plants that were just put into 12/12. The joint between the stem and the node is swelling up at every joint on both plants. I've never seen this before but then again, I've never grown this strain before. Could it be pre-bud stuff, or could I be looking at a bug...

Anyone have any suggestions on how to cool/vent a closet setup without drilling a hole in the wall or door? So far my only thoughts are buying and installing another door w/ a vent but I really don't want to do that. I only need to drop the temp about 10 degrees.

Across the street there's a house I have a gut feeling is growing. It's a bunch of 20-30 somethings living together and there's always about 3 or 4 vehicles outside. Last summer I noticed one particular bedroom had a lone air conditioner unit hanging out the window. Later I noticed the top...

If you clone before you flower, on a plant started from seed, how do you know if you're cloning male or females? I've read cloning after flowering is a bad idea, but if they haven't started flowering, you don't know the sex of the plant you're cloning. Do you just clone, keep track of what...

So I forgot to turn off the humidifier last night. When my lights came on this morning my closet was reading 98% humidity. There was condensation built up on the curtain rod I use to hang my lights and there were droplets on the leaves. I took a tissue and wiped off the drops on the leaves so...

I just put my plants into flower a few days ago. Every day I go in and try to see signs of preflowers. I have taken the scope to what look like preflowers and I've seen the beginning of trichomes. Here's my dumb question....do male plants create trichomes? Could that be an indicator...

Just curious, by poll, who everyone here is going to vote for. Obama or McCain?

Whelp.....I'm digging in. I bought some CFLs, got my pots, my dirt and my seeds. This is going to be my first attempt at an indoor grow. Last spring, I popped some seeds in some planters outside. Surprisingly, they sprouted, so I immediately got on here to find out what to do. Shockingly, I...

Got My CFLs, got my pots, got my dirt, got my seeds. My first grow ever was this year. I was surprised when some seeds I put in dirt outside actually sprouted. I immediately got on here to figure out what to do to make it finish. I was successful, so I think Ima gonna try it again. Since...

So I'm trying to get an indoor crop going. I did the wet-paper-towel-inside-two-plates method of germination. Within 48 hours, 3 of the 6 seeds had sprouted their tap root. I planted those. The other three look like they have the beginnings of a tap root (aka a white dot poking through) but...

Every once in a while that day comes around that we dread. We run...out....of....weed....... I'm there now. I'm looking longingly at my plant that needs about 6 more weeks to finish. 6 weeks is a long freakin' time to be out of weed. I'm on about day 7 of nothing. What do you guys do when...
