    What Seed Would You Grow Now?

    I prefer Attitude but could buy elsewhere if necessary. Cannot figure out how to get clones, so, I guess I'll go seeds again. Last grow did OK. Don't remember strain. What feminized, non-auto seeds would you guys like? I like either indica or indica/sativa mix, no more than 50% sativa...

    Bad Mold Smell - please help

    I'm about 3 -4 weeks into flower, indica, in an enclosed/dedicated room with a window a/c unit. Passive ventilation. Soil. The A/C was keeping the humidity down but last time I checked my RH is 63% and when I hit the "min/max" button I see it has been as high a 79%. Probably been hitting high...

    What's the magic area on this moisture meter?

    Thanks for all the creative alternatives - I have used them all. Trying to get a little more precise than "the finger" or "the weight" because I think I may be over-watering but wanted a more precise measurement. This is a useful toy sold in most hydro and other gardening stores. I paid $9...

    What's the magic area on this moisture meter?

    Hey guys just picked this one up. What's the range you re-water? My 3-gallon pot was on the mid to moist side of "dry" at top half, the dry side of the "moist" range at bottom. Nothing was "wet" or even on the wet side of "moist".

    Best Next Step for Heat Management in 4x13 room

    Hey guys, So I now have my 600-watt MH running 24h probably 4.5 feet above the little plant - will gradually lower it to a more effective range but want to "ease" the plant into it from the CFL it was under. Now I no longer need to run a heater because the light keeps the temp around the pot...

    Strange Gray-ish splotching, then yellowing, then curling and twisting

    Interesting. I guess compounding the issue is that I decided not to "graduate" pot sizes, but rather put the freshly germinated seedling in a big 3 gallon pot. Didn't want to put it through the shock of transplants. For all I know the bottom of the pot might be wet as heck while the top seems...

    Humidity Question? What's too high during flowering?

    I'm no expert but willing to contribute my anecdotal experience. I had relatively loose / non-dense buds get molded before the plant was even finished at RH in the mid 50's to mid 60's range.Temps in 70s-80s. Growing DWC and sativa strain. Was only a relatively minor portion of the yield, but...

    Strange Gray-ish splotching, then yellowing, then curling and twisting

    Seedling about 2-3 weeks old under daylight CFL, FFOF soil, seed is pineapple express from G13 labs about 1 year old. Using only RO water so far, no added nutes. I popped this into FFOF without knowing that can sometimes burn them, but no sign of nute burn. Plant was doing OK but as you can see...

    Dedicated Grow Room in New House - Opinions Wanted

    I can't run any cords into the room - it is part of the house by sharing 2 walls, but completely separate - access is by a door or window only and I cannot have cords running in and out. Must keep it stealth to the max. I am going to call the local hydro shop and see if they will exchange the...

    Dedicated Grow Room in New House - Opinions Wanted

    The door and window are at one end, putting the plants on the other end. I am thinking we messed up getting a 1000w light setup since we will grow maybe 6-8 plants max, and only have 4 feet wide to work with and 8 foot ceiling. I agree I wont have to heat and light at same time, but for summer...

    Dedicated Grow Room in New House - Opinions Wanted

    Oh and experience wise I have only grown from designed seeds, twice in hyrdo but CFLs, the other in soil but only got afternoon sun and not a ton of it, planted way late in fall. Both smoked OK but nothing like what I buy. I'm hoping the light will make a difference here - and then maybe just...

    Dedicated Grow Room in New House - Opinions Wanted

    Hi everyone - been a long time since I've visited/posted here. My new-to-me house has what has got to be the ideal room. It's an attached storage closet with external dead bolted door 4x13 feet with 8 foot ceilings. It has no HVAC or ventilation and 1 smallish double-pane window which I have...

    Hydrogen peroxide

    really? sprayed 3% right on the roots? I am fighting a little problem and tried that and it made a pretty significant sizzling sound, like I was frying bacon. It was bubbling like crazy. I thought of that dandruff shampoo commercial where the guy is like "it's tingling", and I got scared and...
