I have never filtered my water so I can't actually say if filtered water is better or not, but I have compared letting water sit to not letting water sit, and the only value I found in letting water sit was due to water temperature (cold water slows down microbial activity), now I just use warm...

I guess you must have not had enough fresh air, did you keep it totally sealed up or did you have some vents open? And did you replenish the air at least once a day? Also the yellow leaves is fine as previously pointed out, I bet the yellowing ones don't need a dome now. Don't worry about the...

I actually cited this article on a thread about mold last week here :- https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/668535-mold-questions-help.html#post9205652 I was then informed about chloramines, so I requested a water report from my supplier and sure enough I have chloramines in my...

I'm sure adding orange peel will invite mold, I personally wouldn't do it.

I thought I had never had fungus gnats before, but after an extensive search of all my notes I discovered that I have had them in the past and I cured them with traps. According to my notes, I got jam jars and put some vinegar in the bottom and make a small hole in the lid just big enough for...

I find if you keep the buds on the plant, at room temperature (21°C) it takes about a week, yes dry it until the stems snap, but when you put it in an airtight container, what happens is the moisture in the middle of the buds starts to come out to the very dry bits on the outside, this makes...

I'm sure you're going to get it rooting, one thing I didn't mention is to make sure that your medium is in proper contact with the stem, I see lots of pictures where people haven’t made sure that the stem is actually touching the medium, so make sure there are no gaps. And good luck.

It's good that your tolerance is low, keep it that way, it seems lot of people on this site know a lot about growing and not much about smoking because I see so much bitching going on, and my advice to them is take break from smoking. The bud will last you all year probably, my advice is don't...

It’s not really bad as such, but if your clones don’t wilt with the vents open then you should try to keep them open, the sooner the plant starts to transpire then the sooner it will try to take up water and the sooner you get roots. Do bear in mind that condensation on the dome although is a...

You should have started your seeds off in seed/cutting compost; it’s really not that expensive and readily available it a lot of places. Pots are cheap also, and it does look like your using too much water as well.

I never find sexing by flower primordia method reliable, sometimes it's not even a flower, best to wait a bit and let it show, or take a clone and put the clone into 12/12 and see what you get.

It’s a nice feeling isn't it? Did you get any resin on your fingers and roll it up into a small ball of black? I seriously recommend making some hashish with your trimmings, oh and if your going to keep it in plastic, you might want to line it with parchment paper, it helps prevent the...

I've never had problems transplanting a flowering plant, I wouldn’t turn it fully upside down though as soil might end up lodged in your buds. I would advise when transplanting to have some gravel in the bottom of the new pot, and make sure the new pot has drain holes not just underneath...

You will be surprised how big they can still get; I purposely don’t start my seeds in March anymore and wait until about May as it doesn’t seem like there is too much in it. When the days are long the seedlings tend to really rocket up fast and if you’re cunning you can get...

R = V / I and not I / V oh and also I is amps not watts.

Condensation occurs when the temperature of your tent walls is lower than the dew point temperature of the air inside the tent. Make sure you have adequate ventilation, and keep your extractor fan running night and day. As previously said, it will trigger a mold if left to continue.

I have used dish soap and water as a dip with no adverse effects, I use about ½ ml in a 15 liter bucket of warm water approx 20°C, and I have another 15 liter bucket with clear water again at again at 20°C. I turn my plant upside down holding in the soil and dip in and out of the soapy water...

I always recommend fully watering plants thirty minutes before using soap on them, and also washing the soap off after, also just like chuck says get them hydrated again.

I do apologize if I am giving false information as it is my understanding that the very low concentration of chlorine in tap water gets locked up in the soil within the first half an inch or so. And it is also my understanding that the chlorine in chlorophyll is obtained from the soil, however...

I use 6cm (2¼ inch) pots with seed/cutting compost and keep them in a temperature regulated propagator, I keep the vents open slightly and a pen wedges between the lid and the base. If they start to wilt I close the vents for a few hours until they recover; doing this keeps air circulating and...
