    New grower, multiple problems suspected +REP

    It sounds like you are overanalyzing things. It's hard to tell from your pictures but you may just be burning your plant by adding all those nutes and stuff. I'd do as cruzer suggested and just water with plain water for a while. Don't flush again, just water with clean water so you don't...

    Cheapest curing containers?

    A case of 12 quart size canning jars is like $10-15 at your local walmart or grocery store.

    REALLY WEIRD!! plant problem

    I'd keep growing it! Sounds like you were either watering it too much or the temperature was too high in your grow room. Whatever it was, sounds like you fixed it. Congrats! btw if you are flowering it, look out for hermaphroditism and such. I've heard that extended periods of dark won't...

    Spider mite vacuum

    Thought I'd share this with you. We used these aspirators to collect insects in my entomology class. They're for stuff too small to be accurately caught with a net. So you suck the bugs into a little jar with your mouth. A screen or filter is used so you don't end up eating the little...

    please help with heating my room + rep

    I couldn't think of a better name that would express both my love for biology and my love for being super duper high, haha. :wink: bongsmilie Oh and i forgot to mention those heaters are very gentle. They take a while to warm up and cool down, so be patient cause you probably won't notice...

    please help with heating my room + rep

    Hey, you might check this heater out. It's got a bunch of different temp settings and it's radiator style which means there's not hot dry air blowing on your plants all the time. My roommate had a similar heater at my old place. She didn't use it on plants, but the air from it was more gentle...

    Does active carbon need to be thoroughly washed before use? If so for how long?

    Not necessary, but it is a good idea to rinse it just to get the dust off. That shit gets everywhere if you don't.

    bugs again -_-

    That's comforting. I still have some 3-in-1 neem oil based spray from when I had fungus gnats. I also make sure to check under the leaves every few days or so. I just don't want to have a near-permanent infestation like some people on here post about. Fuck those little things, seriously.

    Ventilation - recommendations please

    I don't know too much from experience or whatnot, but just from my basic physics class you are going to have to really crank up the power of your fan to move the same amount of air through a 2" duct as you would a 4". The smallest fans I've seen are 4" so you may need some kind of 4" to 2" pvc...

    Does carbon need to be thoroughly washed before use? If so for how long?

    I would still wash it out though. I just made some carbon filters without rinsing the carbon beforehand and now that damn dust gets everywhere :|

    bugs again -_-

    Oh that pic is just a big magnification, harvest mites are about .5 mm. I'm glad you were able to find out your problem. Good luck though, I haven't had spider mites yet and after reading the forums I'm scared as shit of getting 'em.

    bugs again -_-

    Googled it. Looks like you have harvest mites, the adult form of chiggers. These buggers don't bite you, but their larvae certainly will. The adults eat plants so get rid of 'em asap! From one website: "If they have found their way into your houseplants, move the plants outdoors and soak...

    To all newbies...Read before you post stupid questions!!

    Sometimes if you have a plant problem it's hard to know what you are looking for just in the pictures in the stickies. I dunno how many times I've had my laptop right up to my plants with the def chart and couldn't eliminate the problem below 2-3 deficiencies. Or maybe it's nute burn! Maybe I...

    2010 ballot!!!!!!! CALIFORNIA

    Yeah, good point. I think the sin tax on alcohol and such is ridiculous and doesn't do anything to discourage users of those goods. But I would be willing to accept the same ridiculous tax if it's necessary for marijuana to be legalized....for now. To me, any step is a step in the right...

    Got The Knock And Talk @ 4 Am

    I second that. You knew the risks you took when you started growing and now you have to man up to it. I know it's fucking bullshit. That being said, I really hope things work out for the best for you and that you do the right thing.
