    Importance of Humidity

    I never really paid much attention to humidity in my grow closet for some reason, however your post made me google it up, and it seems that for vegging a humidity level of 40-70% is best. While for flowering 40-50% is the range you should be aiming for. Failure to try and keep the humidity...

    Watering; Every 3 days too often?

    When you first pot up to a bigger pot size and give the plants a good water, its not unusual for that water to last 5 days or so, then as the plants get bigger, usually quite quickly as a reaction to the potting up, they need water faster until I find that every 3 days is about the normal. as...

    Leaves clawing, but not droopy, with pics

    they look like they are coming along nicely, I don't think there is too much wrong with them, heres a tutorial pic I got showing leaf clawing, which like most above confirm, suggests nitrogen overfeeding--this pic is way worse than yours

    MY weed smells like HAY!! WHY??

    Most drying weed goes through the ' smells like hay '' few days, don't worry, perfectly normal, some weeds go through the ' smells like cats piss '' stage which is way more worrying than hay

    Closet Grow

    some type of reflective surface improves the light, if you don't want too much fuss then like the dude above says, paint it with matt white paint,

    Germination question

    Vostok above--he speak the truth--root down seed literaly on the surface or covered at least with a millimetre of well crumbled soil on top, give it a couple of days to settle then get a dim light on it, if you leave it too long without light at this time the seedling will stretch after a week...

    First Harvest

    Looks like a decent haul, when you average it out the 24 ounces you got now will dry down to around maybe 10 ounces which for 4 plants is 2 1/2 ounces per plant, well done mate, hope you enjoy the smoke in a month or so's time. You obviously know what you are doing, but the smoke and potency...

    Off feed with Epsom salts??

    I use bio bizz all mix every grow, and to keep magnesium deficiency at bay and to keep it simple--every third week of your grow add 1 teaspoonful into a 2 litre container and water this into your plants--you can do the same by adding Epsom salts at the same dosage to your feeding mix which if...

    what happened?

    While there is no harm in trying everything at your disposal to improve things, you state that your plants were looking great before you added this CO2 additive. Well, actually they don't look that bad now, they certainly don't look as if they are ' dying ' so its my bet that whatever has gone...

    10 Year old seeds. Will They germinate? Lets find out!

    Will be interesting to see how they do, have read in the best of books that seed is viable for 3 years although I have seen seeds germinate perfectly normally after five years. My bet is no, they wont, but hey, what do I know

    Problem with germinated seeds

    You don't say if its a heated propagator, the guy above who mentions a little heat to get seedlings/seeds going is spot on. either keep your unheated propagator in an 80 degree environment, or if its a heated propagator then switch it on. a little heat moves things along rapidly

    First indoor closet grow

    Don't get too hung up on yield, but a good analogy I use is to imagine the five main factors in growing, namely, Light, Soil, Water, Feeding, and Ventilation to be a chain,----the weakest link in this chain is how high/low your yield might be. Genetic type is very important too---so--If your...

    Grape Ape 18 days flower..how's she look?

    Ive smoked Grape Ape when I bought a gram in an Amsterdam Coffeeshop, turned out to be a lovely medium strength Indica style smoke with I thought, a bit of likeness to Cheese ( weed ) -- not sure of the ancestry of Grape Ape but its a thouroughly recommended smoke.

    Seedling

    As soon as its up and you see the first pair of Cotyledons ( seed leaves ) get a light on it, not too bright as new seedling sometimes react poorly to say a full on 400W light at optimum distance---stick it under your light but a couple of feet away until in a week or so you have the beginnings...

    A mystery to me (photos) any insight?

    Not overly familiar with the nutes etc you are using, but given the fact that you have stopped feeding for 10 days, and new growth is rust free, and existing rust patches arent getting any worse, and pics dont look that bad really---could be that rather than looking to fix an existing...

    home depot and Drug tests...??

    I get random tested at my workplace, I also like to smoke a bit of the old weed now and then. I help myself to stay on the right side of these tests bit not smoking as much as I would like, to monitor myself I buy drug testing kits and can verify that in my own personal situation I will be clear...
