I have tried topping during the 1st week and the 2nd week of flowering, I tried different methods ranging from simply pinching the growth at the alternating internode to actually cutting between two internodes, neither worked and cost yield...the only time I have successfully topped a plant was...

You can always tell sex from preflowers unless your plant is hermie...but if you know you have normal unsexed seeds you can always tell sex from preflowers in my experience...I have been wrong 1 time on 40 plants and that was because it was a hermie. You just have to be patient...alot of times...

got 6 oz off my last WW grow 6 females...400w HPS 4x4 space with cooltube, walls lined with mylar 3gal grow bags, FF Ocean Forest soil, tiger bloom and a touch of 20-20-20 MG all purpose(yeah I grow somewhat inorganicly)...there are spots under the cooltube where I was placing colas 2 inches...

I ordered from AMS and received my order in about 2 weeks...they were not shipped in original packing, they were in tiny ziploc bags and the free 10 were not labled, so no clue what they were not that it matters since only 2 germed of the free ones...of the WW I ordered, 7 germed and 5 were...

Ordered and received...my WW 7 out of 10 germed and 5 females of those...the free ones only 2 germed out of 10 and 1 was female. The seeds I received were very small and green...immature to be sure. And I have no way to know if they were really WW as I have never tried the real deal before...

The density of buds relies solely on your lighting...period. The size can be affected by ferts and lighting...but density is a lighting thing

The best tasting weed comes from soil...the high is the same varies by strain and how you treat em...the only difference with soil and hydro is that hydro tends to grow larger plants at a faster rate. So hydro is better for yield in most cases when compared to soil...but the taste of soil grown...

I have used an HPS 400watt ballast with an MH bulb during veg and HPS during flower with no ill effects...I know many say you can't do it, but I can...I guess it may depend on the ballast...LED lights are not cost effective yet...maybe one day. Also try using an MH during last week or so of...

Lol...do your buds get any bigger with CMH? No...does your electric bill go down if you use a CMH with comparable wattage to the normal MH or HPS bulb? No...does it cost 2 and even 3x the cost to replace the CMH bulb than the MH or HPS? Yes...that about does it for me.

For me it is simple...I enjoy working the soil and growing the old way. My yields have been consistent and potent. I just do not have the ability to switch to Hydro though I understand it's merits quite well...in fact hydroponics may end world hunger one day.

Overwatering causes yellowing and the leaf tips to droop, whilst underwatering causes the entire leaf structure itself including the branch to droop downward...that is how you tell the difference, your plant looks overwatered.If the leaves branches were pointed down and not just bent like they...
