I'm not advocating for not having a dark period. But rather that a photons intensity from a normal houselight is likely not nearly enough to actually interfere with your plants life cycle especially through a pinhole leak. Light intensity and ability to be photosynthetically efficient are what...

Unless you have a very unstable strain I wouldn't worry about light leaks that much. I leave my tent open all the time, sometimes with a normal light fixture with a 60w led on during the "night" period about 4-5 feet from the entrance, I've only seen maybe 10 seeds in the 6 years my setup has...

The finer the better for oyster flour as far as I know, the down to earth stuff is tiny grains and like half powder but I got some at a feed store that was cheaper and better ground up, but I didn't notice any difference between the two personally. I don't mind trying to do the water only...

For calcium I could consider gypsum in combination with oyster flour and maybe even a little bit of dolomite or limestone depending on how your magnesium content looks after the first run you do. Gypsum is a good choice as it buffers ph both ways but it also contains a lot of sulphur which can...

Extra dark almost never hurts unless it's really excessive, you should be fine. I've had lights go off for two days before I knew the time blew up, I've also had supplemental lighting I added while stoned not get plugged into the timer and run for 3 days straight before I noticed, the latter of...

Idk it costs me about 300 a lb when I break down my costs indoors. Obviously excluding the initial equipment buy. I get between 2 and 2.5k a lb in my area and it's very flooded. I have family a few states away but prices are similar. Still worth it for me but I also hold a very well paying job...

Superthrive is b vitamins and NAA which is a rooting hormone with some kelp.

Will do, thanks for the advice. I top dressed and watered with some labs afterwards, the plants are very happy right now. Frostiest I've ever seen them going into week 5.

A good rule of thumb is 20% return on bud and 10% on trim. I've gotten up to 25-27% on nugs and about 12% or so on good trim. My smallest tube I use to crank out little personal batches when I need takes about 40 grams and I always get at least 7 back, usually around 8.5-9. And that doesn't...

They're a little stretchy, I've seen worse. If you keep your temps in check you may not get those to form into huge colas, but you'll get dense nugs still. In week 3/4 the calyx have barely started to fill in, you'll have a lot better idea in 3 weeks ish if they're going to be airy or not. But...

How much malted barley would you top dress onto a 36" plant going into week 4 of flower before a tea? Should I brew the barley or just top dress and water in with ewc tea?

I use a smaller commercial pump I got used for 25 bucks, it's a bit loud but it works great. I need to build one of those tealab things though.

Only on Riu someone would have composted whale meat... Subbed in sheer curiosity of what whale bud comes out looking like.

I know that I want dry stall, I've been looking for a local source but haven't found it. However the ingredients in stall dry are also common soil amendments, was just wondering if anyone had used them before.

I dunno, I avoid it past week 4, it mellows out after a few weeks of curing but unless I wash my buds I can usually taste it a little. I have a few friends that can as well, it definitely leaves a nutty flavor in my buds. If I have crawling insects I'll spray my pots and wipe the stems to...

Does anyone have experience using stall dry in their mix? It's DE rocks and calcium bentonite, I stumbled on it looking for dry stall to use as pumice. Also it looks like the only pumice I can find locally is the black gold brand, I read it has too many fines and need a to be screened, can...

I would say if the trichomes look mostly cloudy you should be safe to take it. The problem is that root aphids will flock to the open wounds and try to devour the exposed flesh. The upside is that they have to go a long way to reach the buds if you do, the downside is that it will stress the...

I wouldn't chop that now it looks like it has quite a while to go, the hairs aren't receding they calyx aren't swollen and personally I'd think you'd see a lot more trichs that close to harvest. To me it almost looks like your plant got revegged and flowered again almost, but i would put that...

If he knew, then he was in the wrong too. And there's nothing wrong with challenging a person's claims, just better ways to word things :-).

Not trying to dog you here but if you added nutrients you already know you had adequate amounts of, I would think burning your plants is on you. At this point both of you kind of sound like idiots, medgrower your experience with those particular nutrients may have been shit, if they aren't...
