as for darkness and plant growth, when a plant recieves light the growth hormones react to it and trigger the plant to produce energy and grow foilage, height, fan leaves, etc. when a plant no longer recieves light it foccuses on root growth and development as well as using the energy created...

try to plant on down-grades where its feasible you'll have to water less because of the water drainage downward, plant sparcely 3-4 to one spot then move along, attempt to penetrate and plant within large overgrowth(keeps humans and animals out), also if you can start indoors then grow to about...

well man i have to say its gonna be difficult to get an earlier harvest without altering the light cycles before the solstice, you could always get a lowryder strain or start your plants indoors then flower them a couple weeks before putting them outside after the solstice other than that i cant...

Hey man as for potency i really can't say theres any validity to this, i mean with more light you always increase growth but in the flowering stage we switch to HPS because MH lights dont have a high amount of useable red spectrum light, so logically if the plant ceases using as much blue light...

Hey man, as for salt in the air I wouldn't worry about it, the plant only takes in CO2 from above the ground through pores in the leaves, way to small to be clogged by salt particles, if anything i would eorry about salt in the soil, but since your hauling in soil you should be fine, and no...

hey man sounds like your thinking things through real nice and early, always a good idea to plan ahead. Anyways as for your question about harvest, if you want to put in the extra effort you could cover each plant an hour or two earlier then when it stops recieving direct sunlight then remove...

This is just an informative piece for all the outdoor growers who have ever had their crop decimated by ground-based insects. This particular tool isnt exactly new but it isnt something that I see mentioned around as often as it should. Diatomaceous Earth, natural insect barrier and...

i dont know if theyll ship to SA but they shipped to the US and over here the gov is real strict on all things weed so theyll prob ship to you, they conceal the seeds to make it look like a package/birthday present or whatever one time i got a free ipod sock cuz thats where they hid the seeds...

hey what sort of organics did you use and by not flushing was there any difference in taste? i played around with organic but nutes jus became much easier for my type of set up so i only know the taste of flushed and cured just curios to find out if the organics gives a better smoke awesome WW...

the spray probably isnt the issue, the soil being constantly saturated sounds like overwatering. Have you ever used coco coir?, as long as it has a place to drain its nearly impossible to oversaturate and maintains a large air to liquid ratio, its also reusable and very handy for indoor and it...

its a crap shoot man, now that ive seen the last pic you put up it could very well be just a weak plant, as much work and care we put into everything theres always one or two that just dont get along as well as the rest, has it been this short since veg?, if so then you might just have a...

well if its not fusarium then id say heat stress, which doesnt make sense because you say that they're not all affected, also have you done any flushing? if not then it might be salt build up doing essentially the same thing as the wilt so the flush and the peroxide should help either or both...

well id say depending on ur strain you may have to live with whatever damage that has been done it all depends on how long the peroxide takes to be taken into the roots, in about a week i would expect growth to resume, i would do a straight water flush of your medium then a straight water and...

hey man i cant see any pics but from what im hearing it sounds like a particular discease that i encountered as a rookie, it happened to me during veg and slowed my groweth down for about a week, its known as fusarium wilt or verticillium wilt, its essentially caused by a buildup of bacteria in...

not to seem pretencious but organic nutrients do contain nutrients obviously thats why we use them, a bad taste/dry/cure can result from not flushing even with organics as a result of buildup of nutrients during the plant life cycle, having grown organically and chemically i would say its always...
