90X is the shit dude. Turns back the hands of time a bit. Hopefully when you get set up you don't have to be smoking shit with seeds in it anymore, no disrespect intended.

None taken. But i know what you mean... Its mainly just lm finding like 2 or so in an 8th and just saved them up in a separate bag. But yeah I do really wish it was completely seed free. Oh well, nothings perfect, its still good either way. Just what I can find on campus when I want it, so I dont complain much
By the way. I have a little area in my closet set up to grow. Nice little white corner and a few CFL's above the plants. I germinated the seeds, which happened to be a stupid part on me, because I put nearly all my seed that i saved up in the paper towel and there are so many nice looking seeds with little roots coming out waiting to be planted.. ugh.. such a waste
. Thankfully I didn't really pay for seed straight up, so its not too bad. But I just planted 3 today in soil and sprinkled some water on them. Lets see how this goes.

Yea, I just exhaust into the room. It's not hot air really, it stays cool, never over 78 degrees. I just make sure I have a window or patio door cracked open so fresh oxygen enters the room.

Ok guys, I need help. two of my plants are sick. I thought it was Mag def. so I added some Epsom salt to my water but did not help. They have turned purple but only on the top of the buds and the leafs have turned yellow and the buds look smaller. I tried flushing and feeding but no help either. I might have caused it myself, I had a friend tell me to add CO2 with the bb gun cartridges, and I listened. I added 4 cartriages of CO2 a day for about a week. I sure hope it wasn't the CO2, that would suck. Anyways, any help would be great. Thanks.
Two sick ones and one healthy one. The healthy one was furthest away from where I would release the CO2.

Thanks.
Here are some things I want to change on mine as of now.
1. My next hempy bucket will have a water hose attachment for the drain so that when I flush, it will not make a mess. Also, the way I positioned my buckets makes for a hassle when flushing.
2. Find a way to make this scrog portable, maybe a long piece of wood with small wheels as a base that is able to pop right out of the armoire. Just a thought for now.
3. I what to be able to slow down this fan just a bit so that the air will have a little more time in the carbon, sometimes I get a small whif when I come home from work. Problem is they cost money for a good one, if there is one someone that has used one, and it does not make the fan hum please let me know.

If you ask me, I would say there is nothing wrong with your plants!
Those bitches are telling you they're ready to be chopped.
How long have they been flowering? (Just so I'm sure they are ready)
The most common sign that you're plants are ready are the yellowing fan
leaves. The buds take the last of the nitrogen out of the leaves and harness
its energy into finishing up the buds.
It looks like those buds are done to me, check the trichs and make sure.
If there really is a problem, the only 2 problems that would cause the plant to turn
purple would be a molybdenum deficiency, or very cool temperatures.
**edit**
And who doesn't want purple buds?!

Thanks for the help. That's the conclusion I came to also. Turns out it's a good thing about the yellowing fan leaves. If you harvest with dark green fan leaves your bud will smoke a bit hash, from what I've read online. I think they turned purple because the CO2 would come out cold after I cracked the cartridge, cause only the top half of the plat is purple. (CO2 is heavier than air so you want to release it above the plant...I sure a lot of you knew that but I didn't until 2 weeks ago.)
I started flowering on Nov. 19th so that's........tomorrow makes 8 weeks. This is a 9-10 week strain from what I have found online. I looked under the scope yesterday, all the trich are still clear. Harvest is just around the corner. Anyone know a good link for a video tutorial on how to trim?
Also, anyone have any suggestions on their method for a final flush that they can share please. Anyone use Clearex? Last question, has anyone tried the 2 days of darkness before harvest I keep reading about? Did it help?
Thanks again Kitty for your input. Really appreciated.
