you wouldn't want someone to put a bag over your head at night, why would the plants want to feel that way too?

I 102% agree. My current crop started showing yellowing leaves from the bottom up, leaves drying and curling upwards. Looked like an Mg deficiency. Foilar feeding didn't help. So I added a few drops of vinegar to the water and fed the plants. New growth was healthy and the Mg deficiency...

My girls have always liked rain water. Generally I use well water as it doesn't require storage.

It's been a big week, and a red letter day today for my grow op. I ordered a 3'x3'x6.5' tent which arrived earlier in the week. I constructed a "chandelier" to hold my cfl's out of the steel studs I had used to build the prior grow room. Within the last hour all work was finished and the...

I just ordered a grow tent online. It should be here next week. Otherwise just good news. the 4 2x series plants continue to impress. The 3 tallest are 19" tall. #29 is absolutely beautiful. I've never seen branching like she has in any cannibus plant. The clones continue to progress...

I'm looking to upgrade my flowering room from a closet grow to a grow tent. I have spec'd out a 3'x3'x6.5' tent with total volume of 58.5 ft^3. I plan on running somewhere between 300 and 600 actual cfl watts, depending on the exact plant count. How many cfm's do I need on the fans to...

nice grow. check through my journals below as I am doing something in similar size/scope as you. i really like how you have paid attention to the details to maximize your grow. those girls look healthy.

I recently had a bag of some kush that had a fertilized nugget with 60 small seeds inside. I tried to germinate them through my normal method - a moist paper towel on a plate. After 2 weeks only 1 seed germinated. So I put the plate on my cable box where it would be warm. Since then, seeds...

I have a similar closet space.

I had the $8 ph/light/moisture meter that I bought from a hardware store and now it is dead (at least the ph function). I would like to replace it with something nicer. My local grow store has some meters I don't want to go cheap and get crap, nor can I afford to spend money I don't have...

the challenge of grow room design is how to balance two competing demands - first that the grow area contain as many photons as possible while being completely porous to heat. check some of my pics for growing in corner of a room. it multiplies the amount of light you have. that being said...

use aluminum and get airflow over it. airflow airflow airflow.

you need holes in the bottom. no doubt about it.

Today was cloning day. I took 2 clones each from plants 23, 25 and 29. In 1 week I plan to put #'s 23, 25 and 27 into flowering. I may hold them back a little to make sure a clone will survive. I have 2 potential plants, #'s 30 and 31, in 6" pots w/ african violet soil. They are some kush...

Here are some pics from my harvest of #703

Just now I selected 2 buds from the #1601 harvest, put them in a grinder and smoked them. The harvest had dropped from 19 grams to 12 grams. The buds look done and smokable. My friend describes the high as "a theraputic massage to the brain and face, a very deep body high." It also has a...

Here are the latest pics. The girls seem to be responding VERY WELL to FIMing

I just cut down #703 after she spent 4 days in a dark cabinet. She is hung upside down to start the drying process. She measured about 13-14" tall at cut down. She is the least stinky of the 3 plants. Here are her last pics while alive. The young ones (#23, 25, 27 and 29) continue to do...

#702 was just moved from the drying box and trimmed for canning. The total weight was 15.2 grams. #702 has a very different smell. It is much sweeter. However, the illness the plant suffered earlier in veg definitely reduced it's yield. #703 has been in darkness for the last 72 hours. She...

It's been an up and down. First, #702 was removed from the flowering room and placed in a cabinet in darkness for ~48 hours. This evening she was removed from the cabinet. Unlike #1601, all shriveled up leaves were removed prior to her being hung upside down in a box. She will remain there...
