    Willie's ebb & flow grow

    I made some clones today. I rejuvenated a Shiva Skunk B from my last grow (Skunk B is what Oksterdam is now calling Candy Skunk). It's the lowest yielding of the 3 varieties they once supported. Now I think they use Skunk A as Shiva Skunk. I digress... I can't tell you what a healthy harvest...

    Willie's ebb & flow grow

    What do you folks think about using Humboldt's Gravity and Purple maxx? I used them both and they burned the shit out of my plants. This grow, I'm staying away from the Humboldt additives. It's not that I don't like them. I don't think they mix well with the Fox Farms nutrients. I think the most...

    Good Strains For CFLs

    I'm using T5 fixtures. my crop looks nice, but Ed says flourescents are not the way to go. He says to use a bloom light. HPS i think is what he said. I don't know, I'm doing well with 11 plants in a 3' x 3' tray. Look for my thread. I have recent pictures from my current grow.

    Thanks man, they're looking fantastic. It's too late to shoot photos of them tonight, but i'll be sure and take some photos tomorrow. Also, tomorrow I'll be getting ready to clone my shiva skunk b, bubblegum, and querkles. I'm going to use those gro-dan rockwool circular plugs as the cloning...

    Willie's ebb & flow grow

    I am running full nutes. The fox farm schedule calls for 10 mL of tiger bloom, 15 mL of big bloom. and 1/4 tsp of open seseme per gallon. I mix that cocktail with 15 gallons of water, and it gets me to 750+/- PPM. I did add an extra 5 gallons worth of nutes and hey're looking good. the only...

    Willie's ebb & flow grow

    02/09/09 I'm 2 full weeks into bloom now. My plants range in height from 14" up to 22". They have shown great growth and the flowers are now beginning to turn into nice buds. I have included a few photos of some of my plants. I'm now full into the FoxFarm Bloom schedule now, and they seem to...

    Gravity flower hardener

    Unless you're growing a purple variety, don't use the purple maxx. And I have had better results turning the buds and leaves purple just by stressing the plants. Do this by feeding them cold water (48 - 55 degrees) at their final flush. Try rhat and save your money and plants. You're telling me...

    Willie's ebb & flow grow

    After 2 full weeks of nursing these babies, it is time to start some real vegetive growth. All but 1 plant has roots growing out of the rockwool. The 1 remaining plant does show signs of fresh roots, but they are yet to break thru the bottom. I am keeping that plant away from the others and...

    Willie's ebb & flow grow

    Willie here, this is my third grow. My first 2 were done using homemade stuff. My 1st grow netted 2 ounces per on 3 plants, pretty good...my 2nd grow yielded me 1/2 pound on 19 plants. That was a disaster. I grew shiva skunk both times, but my second crop had a lot of lock out problems...this...

    I'm on day 16 of flowering, and my 3 shiva skunks have at least 100 little flowers on them. I dont know about HID lights, but so far with the tubes and cfl's, they'redoing well. I've been pruning back the water leaves once a week to let light through to the under growth. later

    Cfl Light Question??

    I was reading about theyields of shiva skunk. It said indoors will yield 125g, or about 4 1/2 ounces, but growing in a greenhouse will yield upto 500g,or about 18 ounces. Why is there such a large gap betwwen indoors and the greenhouse?

    Cfl Light Question??

    This website is an absolute dream. It's great for beginners, like me, to be able to ask you guys anything we need to know. I started off using an AeroGarden...Half my crop died due to root rot. Some guys have been successful with that, but all I can see it being used to germinate seeds before...

    Cfl Light Question??

    Cfl Light Question??

    I'm notgetting the rui reference? Have any of you tried cherry bomb? the dispensary over in santacruz is selling some stinky and sticky cherry bomb. damn. I'm pretty confident with my little set-up. ventilation is an issue,considering this is all being grown in a walk in closet.
