personally I always remove large fan leafs near the bottom of the plant during VEG, many say removal causes many disadvantages such as stress, less photosynthesis, also can effect the plants hormones and nutrient levels, but in my own expirence whenever I removed fan leafs and topped my plants...

if you got bread keep your lights on 24/7 in veg..everyone's environment is completely different, but the only constant for everyone is the need for fresh air/water and consistent light. If you can supply your plants with 24/7 light during veg go for it! I have had over 10 harvest no problems...

inside my cloner I use harvested lake michigan rain water (contains a natural healthy balance of PH and nutrients) + canna RHIZOTONIC which is a powerful, algae based, vegetative stimulator for roots of fast-growing plants.

I keep seeing noobs and even older members losing a ton of clones to rockwool, peat plugs, directly into soil, ETC.... The one single item that changed the game for many of us growers is an EZ cloner, daisy cloner or homemade AERO cloner of some type, ala TheCarpenters design, it will single...

3 or 5 gallon buckets work good for my soil mixture, that is I usually only grow plants a ft per gallon, so when I use 3 gal I top those plants, 5 gal for plants about 4ft, harvest usually doubles size of plant b/c I use C02..

Interesting thread! my opinion is using cheap or expensive nutrients isn't the straw that broke the camels back! Obviously cannabis isn't a "weed.." although it is known for being able to grow in a variety of conditions around the world. But being able adapt to different climates and adjust...

curious with flowering local grow store owner told me only 6 plants under a 600w..I notice you have 9 under each and the lights are fixated much higher. I have been told they could be 12-18" above canopy I guess depends on how many plants need light?

NORML needs to just get more funding to promote the positive things going on in the MMJ community, if NORML had their own magazine like "HIGHTIMES" I would be much more curious to find out what's going on state by state that is involved with NORML. If a dispensary told me they were altering...

@ThatGuy113 love the avatar, I remember when I first saw bubbles tagged up on that wall across from PT's so dope!

not to be a jerk but if you look on craigslist under "marijuana" you can find OZ's from caregiver overages for 250/oz all day, my personal caregiver hooks me up with 2oz/400$

that video was great! thanks for sharing :P

Here's my method, I'm no expert..depends on how much soil you need and what your want to spend..but I have been using this method for creating a soil mix for my clones, veg plants, flower plants, and mothers..works fine. soil mixture: 45% potting soil 15% bat guano 15% Organic seafood...

4X4 tent 600W for sure, depends on how big of a hood you plan on using also! I just got a couple magnum XXXL 6" hoods for my 4X 600W system, the grow store employ explained that I can have a 6X6 area for that hood, but he stressed that the most effective light for the lumen penetration area is...

@jcurry26 nice looking plants! they look vibrant green lots of new growth. I noticed you have your ducting hooked up to a/c also a very smart decision. My question is the carbon filter okay sitting on top of the tent?

During flowering I water 2 times a week (only in the morning) depends on how dry the soil is when I stick my finger into the corner of the bucket about 2" deep. I make sure to water until I see water draining from the bucket. I use a basic soil either sunshine advanced mix or pro mix add some...
