I had to leave my apartment for about 2 weeks and am wondering if my plants will last 2 weeks without water? They're about 4 weeks old, under 4 fluorescent tubes (about 200 watts total), 5 gallon pots, temperatures around 85, relatively high humidity (florida), and I watered them pretty heavily...

This is my first grow, and I have a white label super skunk auto that's been in flower for about 8 weeks now. Wanted to harvest on the early end of harvest window, ideally right before amber starts showing up to see how it differs from a later harvest. Do the trichs look white enough yet?

This is my first grow, and I'm currently growing 3 white label super skunk autos. They've been in flower for about 7 weeks now. I wanted to harvest one of them earlier in the harvest window, and the other two later, just to compare the highs. Do you guys think that this first one's ready to harvest?

In 2 weeks I'm going to be going out of town for about a month. I might be able to come back in the middle, but right now I'm trying to find a good method to water my plants while I'm away. I've heard that putting a string in a water container and running the string out of the container and down...

thanks guys. I've decided to wait another 2 weeks or so after looking at some pics of ready buds too. I tried getting another picture but none of them turned out that well, but I'm pretty sure i'll be waiting a while anyways.

I am currently growing some white label super skunk autoflowering. Been flowering for about 6 weeks now. I was planning on harvesting on monday or tuesday. I know I'm definitely on the early side, but do you think my buds look ready to harvest? I wasn't planning on waiting til the trichs turned...

Anyone know if I would be able to find good flower nutes at just hardware stores or like walmart? I'm kinda paranoid about going to hydroponics and gardening stores and such.

from my understanding, the 48 hours of darkness works by just sapping all the existing nutrients already in the plants, and since one would harvest right after, it would be okay for the fan leaves and stuff to be sucked dry of nutes. I really can't say myself if this works or not but have heard...

yeah I figured I wouldn't want to experiment with stuff like supercropping and lst as this is my first grow. Just looking for simple stuff that's easy to do

I've also heard that resin production happens during the dark hours, and have heard of people turning off their lights for 48 hours prior to harvesting so the plants puts its remaining energy into resin production. Anyone think this is a good idea?

Im currently growing 3 super skunk autos that first showed pistils about 3 days ago. Im growing with fluorescent tubes and cfls and have changed most of the bulbs to low kelvin color temps. I've heard adding molasses to water can improve yield. Is this true? If so should I still be using my...

Right now I have three seedlings that are about two weeks old. I need to head out of town for for two days, so there'd be about a 48 hour gap between the times I'd be able to water them. Will they survive fine in that time period without water? Or should I set up a drip system or something to...

thanks for the advice. it was well needed

is my main problem the watts? should i supplement the fixture with some cfls or just get different tubes

I am just starting my first grow and was wondering if 2 T8 48 inch 32watt 6500k Fluorescent tubes would provide enough light for 4-5 plants?
