    Can my plants be sterile?! pics

    The plants look pretty small for 6 weeks. Mine were close to 20" tall at that age. It's possible they just aren't mature enough to flower, or that you've got too much light leaking into the grow area during the night cycle.

    Final Flush?

    So, this is my first grow, and I'm entering week four of flowering today. My question is about how to know when to flush. When I bought my seeds a 6 week flowering time was advertised, but I've read that those times are rarely correct. So, according to Ministry of Cannabis, I should start...

    Drying in a vacuum?

    Heh, I wish I had a year's supply to store. I started growing as an economical alternative to buying high priced weed. I put about 600 USD into the box, lights, aeroponics, etc. So, if I produce just a few ounces of White Widow, it's already paid for itself on the first grow. My plants are...

    Drying in a vacuum?

    I'm just going to put an ounce or two of Big Bud in there. The rest I'll dry normally. Anyway, about the drying slowly. I see a lot of people saying it, and I have no doubt as to its truth. However, I don't see anybody asking why. It's possible that drying more quickly in one way will...

    Drying in a vacuum?

    So, reducing air pressure should increase the rate at which moisture is removed from the buds. I happen to have a little vacuum marinading thing and a harvest coming up in a few weeks. Has anybody ever tried drying in a vacuum (not those food saver bags that would crush the buds)? I'm...

    1. Pictures would help. 2. You're posting in the wrong forum. You want the plant problems forum.

    Buying more Nutrients

    Aeroponics. Rockwool cubes are holding the plants in the pot, but they don't do much aside from just keep it in place.

    Buying more Nutrients

    You have to wonder why a whole nutrient sub-forum exists if nutrients are as simple as you say, or why so many completely rational people who stand nothing to gain from endorsing a bloom enhancers do so. Plants are complex organisms, and there's a whole lot to their growth than just throwing...

    Buying more Nutrients

    I'm sure they work fine, but I'm looking for better than fine. Specifically, bloom enhancers.

    Buying more Nutrients

    As the title says, I plan to expand my stock of nutrients. Currently I'm using Sensi Grow, Sensi Bloom and Bud Blood powder. It's been working well so far, but I plan to add more nutrients on the next grow and continue to add one or two additives each time. This way my upfront cost is lower...

    Smart or dumb? Plant on a turntable.

    I'd say keep it going if you think it can handle it (I know little about turntables). Just watch the plant and see if it's wobbling too much as it grows. This is definitely something you'll have to play by ear. This is definitely an interesting project.

    Smart or dumb? Plant on a turntable.

    Thinking outside the box is good, but unfortunately your idea absolutely will not work. You create a centrifugal force by spinning something. While it's spinning, inertia tries to make the object continue on the path it was taking. Because it's spinning, this force takes the form of a tangent...

    making honey oil with co2 instead of buetain

    You're actually exactly wrong, Mr. StankyFingas. Not only can gasses not dissolve anything except other gasses, but CO2 is an excellent solvent under the right conditions (in liquid form at relatively high temperatures for something that's normally a gas). If you don't believe me about gasses...

    making honey oil with co2 instead of buetain

    CO2 is a gas, Butane will be a liquid when used. You can't dissolve into a gas at any appreciable rate. Your assumption that CO2 can be used instead of Butane because they're both cold is like saying my desk is the same thing as a turn of the century roller coaster because they're both made of...

    Help! My plants are doing too well!

    Nah, they weren't not stretchy, they just put on a huge growth spurt. The light was about 6" away from them the whole time (400 watt HPS). I just vegged them too long.

    Help! My plants are doing too well!

    4 males so far, all of which I've killed. There's a fifth that looks like it's probably a male but it wasn't developed enough to be certain. Luckily my biggest and bushiest plant was a female, and she should be more than happy to stretch out with her brothers all gone now. Three plants were...

    Help! My plants are doing too well!

    My camera won't focus properly that close in. I've identified 5 females for comparison though, and those are definitely male. So far out of 12 plants I have 5 females, 3 males and 4 that haven't shown yet.

    Help! My plants are doing too well!

    Unfortunately, it looks like my largest plant is a male. This is my first grow so I could be wrong (and I really hope I am). Confirmation?

    Help! My plants are doing too well!

    Lots of good advice all around. I think I'm going to try supercropping. Night ends at 5:00 PM CST so I'll give it a whack then and post some pictures of the results.

    Help! My plants are doing too well!

    All joking aside, my plants are growing too fast. My light is as high as it will go (reflector is hitting the top of the box), and my plants are still growing 2-3 inches a day and are only 6 inches from my light. The plants have been in 12/12 for about a week. Is there anything I can do to...
