Yep, I've been there before with little cracks, but I mean, this literally sheered off half of the branches. The ones that were bent/crimped got tapped up, though! Guess we'll see how she does. I mean, as long as no infections or air bubbles get in, and as long as it doesn't hermie, I think I...

Yeaahhh, I wound, but this pheno doesn't like to be cloned it seems. All my other strains did great, but not this one :/ Would've been a hell of a monster crop job on that though! :P

Yeah, that's kind of where I'm at now. Fingers crossed!

Nope, dried. I mean, it's really just the fact that the microbes are feeding on it like crazy while stimulated by sugars. It does a great job, but man, I gotta find a way to keep that smell out.

So, just wanting some oppinions here on if this is salvageable and if so, how to help my poor girl out... So, I accidentally left a jug of water sitting in a somewhat unstable manner above/next to one of my plants (my favorite one, too :/ ) and overnight, it fell and broke half of my branches...

Oh yeah, straight it's definitely worse, but adding in (basically) fermentation and braking guano down into something super usable, it becomes hell, whereas the chicken manure seems to be much more mild. I've honestly thought I had a septic leak in my house before just from that! Lol

Nope, just a homemade contraption that cost me about $20 to make. It's nothing super special, but it gets the job done!

It's just a simple rig I made to really oxygenate the water as well as recirculate it, and therefore I'm able to grow microbiology and get a better overall extraction of the nutrients. Plus the plants love the microbes! I've used chicken manure mainly, as well as bat guano. Bat guano...

Thanks for all the replies! Glad I asked first, I never realized it was a slow release like that, and that it's too acidic to work with. I'm adding all my used coffee to my compost currently, and using a homemade bioextractor on that, which is seeming to work fairly well, but isn't putting out...

Hey guys! I'm onto my 5th grow now, and now that I've learned first hand where I was lacking the most and have my breeding done with, I've cut back on my total plants, and now it's time to really grow some beasts :3 I've stuck almost entirely to organics thus far and have had decent success...

Huzzah, the day has arrived! A couple days ago, I got to harvest 3 of the 4 plants -- Blueberry, Sour Diesel, and White Widow (Panama has another couple weeks to go, but it's looking great!). Surprisingly, even with as different as they looked, they all weighed in (wet) about the same at ~200g...

Well, the grow is still going! I got busy/ inattentive and unfortunately really made a negative impact on the plants. With the hot summer weather, a 400w SL HPS, and no vents, they got extremely heat stressed. I would say about 50-60% of the garden's fan leaves are gone now due to that. So...

Hey folks! This is my third grow. My last two turned hermie, but I got entirely new genetics this time, and no issues so far! :D Currently day 35 of flower (counting from switch to 12/12) under a 400w-sl HPS with a 5w UVB CFL running the middle 6 hours. All organic homemade nutes, in FF Happy...

Things are going great with the plants now about 25 days into flower. They appear to have gotten a bit deficient on P, K, and some micros (these strains seem to like heavier amounts of nutes, and each a different kind...) but that's all squared away thanks to some homemade organic NPK and micro...

Well, I got lucky, 5 males! Still slim pickin' by good breeding standards, but I'm pleased with the males I got out of this -- good branchingod and decent clusters as well. I kept male one each of African Buzz and Panama, and just collected the first bit of pollen off of the African Buzz today...

Oops... kinda let the kids veg a little long. Like, a few weeks too long. Now this is going to be an interesting adventure to try to nail the height I want... Just switched to 12/12 today, finally. Most plants are around a foot tall now after topping and FIMing. My plan to control their...

Just a quick update: Most all of the plants are doing great! It looks like no Kilimanjaro this time, as none of the 10 seeds have cracked yet, and I've tried everything. Two of the African Buzz look like they won't make it, just had issues getting up and out of the soil :/ The rest, however...

Well, 10 days later, about half of my seeds are up and forming their 2nd set of serrated leaves. Keeping the humidity super high at around 80% with lots of air movement and regular watering with plain ph'd filtered water. All of the seeds germinated except for the Kilimanjaro. I started...

Here's a shot of each of the 3 big hermies that had to go. White Widow clones, rooted 2 weeks, vegged 3 weeks, on 11.5/12.5 for 2 weeks, 35" tall, 30" wide, monster cropped, and topped. They'd have been great producers if they hadn't hermied, but the new seeds are germinating now at least!

First time journal, second time growing. I did my first grow with white widow seeds I got from a friend. Unfortunately, it seems those seeds were very prone to turning hermaphrodite. All turned on the first batch, but I let it finish, and starting the second batch, I've for sure determined...
