Next time i get in a water balloon fight im gonna to build a bigass trebuchet and start launchin' six footers!

Lol i gotta try that out! It sounds sick

Now, I'll imbibe any form of cannabis in any fashion, but my all-time favorite is definitely a backwood rolled up with some tasty purps.

It may be hard but you can persevere! Its not ready until almost all the trichomes are milky white, with some already turning amber. And its really not good to quick dry. drying takes 5-7 days and curing takes another week and a half plus after drying. If you try to quick dry you're gonna end up...

Unless the fan leaves are dying, there's no real need to cut them since they are some of the biggest energy factories for the plant.

The ballast provides electrical current to the lights. Lights require a high electric current to turn on, but after they're one the electric resistance drops and the light requires less current to maintain it. A ballast takes electricity and passes it to the light at high current to start it...

I definitely concur, attitude seedbank is great. Check TGA subcool strains, ultra-bomb.

When growing sativa, the obvious problem is the height, cuz they can get tall, like rly rly tall, like taller than shaq tall. After the start of flowering for a sativa, they can double and even triple in size! There are various techniques you can use to try and cope with the height, such as LST...

LST stands for Low Stress Training. They are simple techniques that allow the grower to manipulate the direction of growth in the plant. For instance you can use strings to lightly bend the stems or branches of a plant to grow in a direction of your choosing. Usually the goal is to make a...

Thanks for the vote of confidence sandee! All too often newbies get bashed for asking questions, which I feel is wrong and has an overall negative effect on the mj growing community. I would like to see any and all growers, newbie or experienced, have beautiful and bountiful crops. There are...

Also, if you don't want to spend money on ph up/down solution, you can substitute pH up with baking soda (or any other alkaline for that matter, as long as it isnt toxic) and pH down can be substituted with most acids (i.e. vinegar, lemon juice, etc.)

pH is the acid/alkaline rating of any substance. Usually set to a 1-14 scate with 1-7 being acidic, 7 being neutral, and above 7 being alkaline aka base. The pH of the soil is very important because it affects how well the plant can take up nutrients. pH of soil for mmj needs to be within...

Yo, there a still few pieces of info needed that would be helpful in determining what you should do next. What is the color temp of your bulbs (i.e. 2700 Kelvin, 5500k, etc.), the reason this is useful to know is because some of the lower watt MH/HPS bulbs have a different color temp than their...

For anyone that needs it, to convert to kilowatts per hour (kWh) and determine power cost -- 1) Take the watt usage of the bulb and convert to kilowatts by dividing by 1000 (because there are 1000 watts in 1 kilowatt). For instance lets pretend we had a 600W HID, divide 600 by 1000 and you get...

HIDs use alot more power. cfls are generally low wattage light sources (commonly in the 10w-42w range, although there are cfls as small as 2w and as big as 200w). HIDs on the other hand come in wattages of 400w, 600w, and 1000w (they come in other wattages as well, but 400, 600, and 1000 are the...
