    Rapid Rooters How Long?

    If I have a cutting in a rapid rooter, I keep it their until I see some roots coming out of the bottom and sides, then I stick the rapid rooter right into a rockwool cube, which is a perfect fit. Remember to soak your rockwool cubes prior to transplant.

    no nutrients?

    I dont use any nutes for the first 2-3 weeks or so, but after that its a whole different ball game. Try a search and you will come up with more than enough posts to answer all the questions you may have. good luck

    IS there a difference?

    Ya man, all you need to do is read the directions on the nute container, it will tell you exactly what you need to do. I havent seen a nute that you just pop open the container and pour it right on the plant. Most nutes are highly concentrated and need to be dilluted with water. Check the FAQ's...

    Is it safe to cut a finger off a leaf? My first grow, 2 months

    Do you want to top the plant or fim it? If you want to fim, it looks like you have a nice little new growth that would be perfect for that. Just take some clippers and take off about 3/4 of the new growth. I just did this to a few of mine and a week later it is looking good. I got worried the...

    A strange looking sprout

    haha ya could be a weed. And sprouts dont look anything like what it will look like a week or 2 from now, just give it some time. Ive seen some sprouts that look like a little clove, nothing like a pot plant and yes, pics would be nice, too hard to give you any info without a decent picture.

    First Grow: My Girl is almost done... is she good to go?

    hard to tell from the pic, what strain? do some research on the typical flowering cycle for the strain you have. or just take a sample and smoke it. Looks like it might have a few more days to go though, you dont want to pick it too early, that could screw up everything you've done to get to...

    how much is enough nutes??

    I dont feed my plants any nutes until right around the 3-3 1/2 week mark. Nothing but water and clonex solution up until this point. I use house and garden nutes aqua flakes for hydro, it is very reasonable price wise and comes in a easy to use A and B 2 part formula. If you go to the house and...

    Does a male plant produce seed on the male plant

    From what ive heard, male plants only produce pollen, which can produce more and more pollen you dont want around your females. I've never heard different, but if you find out they can then that would be a first!

    need a answer please OH WISE ONES

    I agree with the rest. As soon as I find out a plant is a male, I pull it away from the others and dispose of it. No need to keep it around unless you want to use it for practice, different nutes/lighting/ferts/etc....??

    what nutes to use?

    I do hydro, never done soil before. I prefer house and garden nutes for hydro, decent price and I am very happy with the results I have gotten. They also make a version for soil too. I think for the 2 part system it was only like 25 bucks. Then you can add in other nutes to please whatever...

    Alternative to water basins and trays

    I have had a couple roughnecks before, and they are great. Never had a problem with one of those. I was talking about something more like a flood tray used in flood and drain setups. Anything over 50 gallons gets a little pricey. But I was looking around on some commercial restaurant supply...

    using stinkbuds aeroponic setup- advice please!!

    Its a fixed program cycle timer. All you do is plug it into an outlet, plug your pump into the timer and youre good to go. No programming needed, just plug it in and you are set.

    using stinkbuds aeroponic setup- advice please!!

    You want to get these grodan rockwool plugs. Put your cutting in the aerocloner, when you see roots, slip it into this plug and then into your rockwool cube. Works perfect!

    Alternative to water basins and trays

    This is kinda what I was talking about. This would be a smaller setup of course, I think its only 2ft x 3ft, but with the lid its only 26 bucks

    Alternative to water basins and trays

    Does anybody have any tips on other types of pvc bins or trays that can be used for hydro? I like supporting my local hydro shop, but 250 bucks for a res and lid is a lot of money. I was looking into some commercial food storage equipment and it looks like they may have some stuff that would...

    bwatte's First Grow Journal

    Ok so I started out with some clones from the local dispensaries here in socal. I tried to do some aero cloning with some clones after my first system failed, what I did was basically cut the clone from the lowest point possible. A week later I was wondering why they werent doing anything and...
