Just to follow up... I ended up harvesting a little more than half and just kept the rest under 12/12. It did go through its entire flower cycle again. It was just as good as the initial harvest, yield was almost identical, and didnt go hermie. Not bad all in all!

Sorry for the delayed response. Didn't work out too bad actually... I harvested about half of what was there, & let the rest do its thing. 10 weeks or so later, I had pretty much the same results. Most important, they didn't turn hermie, like I thought they might.

Damn... Live n learn

My ladies were in about week 7 of flower when I realized my lights had been on 24/7 for the past 10 days or so. I had noticed odd growth from the buds which tipped me off to the lights. They've obviously re-vegged, so I flipped the switch back to 12/12 a couple of days ago. They still had about...

this is my second attempt with this strain. the first was a drip, same amount of plants, but in 6" square pots & they fit pretty good. its some unknown bagseed strain, but grows very tight, with hardly any side branching. guess im more concerned with the amount of root space. they were...

howdy all... trying out a small dwc closet grow. it's an 18 gallon rubbermaid bin under 8, 23w 2700k cfls... about a 1.5'x2' area. just put 6 clones in, 2 weeks from cut directly into 12/12, so they barely had a week of veg (nice root system though). they were only about 2-3 inches at the time...

can I run 4, 250w hps bulbs off a single 1000w ballast?

is this possible? how would i wire it?

almost time to harvest, & starting to see some male/hermi flowers. she doesnt look ready yet, maybe another week or 2 to go. if i wait that long, will there be seeds?

had roughly 30 grams of leaf and some trim taken from a prematurely chopped (4 weeks early) hermie. so i kept it basic: 1. melted 3 sticks (3/4 lb) of butter in a crock pot on low. took about 30-45 minutes for the butter to fully melt 2. dumped the dried, ground up leaf into the butter and...

i have about a 30g's worth of leaf and trim (mostly leaf) and was wondering how much butter i should use... was thinking maybe 2 sticks (1/2 lb)??

anyone? is transplant shock worth the risk vs letting them go?
