    Nutes Nuts Whatever = Problems

    Growth is slow because the plants are building a root system at that age. 3 week old plants, if they've been in the same soil since inception, should just be getting their first taste of half strength food. Good potting soil contains plenty of healthy goodness for young roots and won't start...

    Hillary on Meet the Press ...

    How thoroughly defeatist. I don't blame the extremists nearly as much as I blame compromise centrists who are willing to eat shit waiting for tomorrow to come because they lack the conviction to "waste" their vote.

    Guns

    To ask why when you've studied causality, when you're just going to retreat into rhetoric about duality, seems kind of like you're just interested in seeing angels dance on the heads of pins. The question only has meaning if you live in the dualistic world. If you live in the world, then you...

    Question?

    Right on! My local hydro shop has enormous bags of the stuff that you'd never think you could ever use up for like $20. Vermiculite too. Correct on the mix! :) When they're old enough for feeding and flowering, go to a more soil-heavy mix, about 2:1.

    First Grow

    You can grow some freaks if you're willing to get nutty with the chemicals. Miracle Grow in the flowering cycle is like pumping them with steroids. I grew a couple of 8 foot WRxR99 plants in my closet by keeping the MG coming for 4 weeks into flower. The excess N will extend your flowering...

    Question?

    Ocean Forest is just fine out of the bag. They don't add any chemical nutes, so it's just good, rich soil. It does, like all soils, compact when watered, and compacted soil is harder for young roots to penetrate. To make to Ocean Forest even better for seedlings, you can improve the texture...

    could this b the day

    You're getting close for sure, I'd say you're probably 10 days or so off. But there's no way to really know without a microscope. A cheap 25x will do just fine. If the trichomes are more than 50% amber, you're in.

    What To Do?

    Why give up yield to make seeds from an untested male crossed with untested bagseed girls? You can always get some more bagseed if you feel like playing genetic roulette with your next grow. Get rid of the males now.

    Gun Control

    I live in both a blue state where I can't have a handgun in my house, and a red state where I've got a CCW permit and a .357 (Taurus 602) I have never killed anyone in either state. "When they kick at your front door, how you gonna come? With your hands on your head or on the trigger of your...

    How Much To Sell For?

    Let's see. Last time I grew medicine, I made the price - FREE. I hate drug dealers. If you have extra medicine after your grow, find some people in need and help them. I'm sure there are plenty.

    First Grow

    You're early enough to just change your regimen. PLEASE change to an organic for flowering! If you make the change, you'll leach out the chemicals gradually enough through your regular watering without having to do anything extra. Those pots look pretty tiny for a full-sized plant. I'd...

    the police

    Unless you live outside the US, you're illegal. Ed Rosenthal is as "legal" as anyone and the feds are making his life hell. The Conservative Canadians are more than happy to share info at the request of the US. Sleep well!

    First Grow

    Miracle Grow is very strong and the salts will accumulate in your soil. The directions indicate once every month for potted plants, no? Do not feed every watering, perhaps once every other week. If you're not going to be transplanting, I'd be very wary of that salt buildup getting into your...

    New Grow: Which Closet and Lights and Many More

    In an apartment with no outside ventilation, you're going to stink to high hell even with carbon, with just a couple of plants. 6-10 plants will be detectable pretty much anywhere on your floor, possibly on others if the building ventilation system isn't isolated. I'd never grow in an...

    Color the Leaves darker?

    See above on reflection based on color - only gravity can "attract" light by curving space. If you coat the leaves with something to make them darker, how will light penetrate to allow photosynthesis?

    Large Enough Growing Space?

    The short answer is no, it isn't nearly big enough for 4-6 plants, and a 2' plant flourescent is totally inadequate. Tin foil is fairly useless as reflective material. It also looks like the entire lid is leaking light. Don't waste your time and effort.

    Trimming Harvested Plants

    After removing as many full-sized leaves as I can, I try just brushing off the little leaf tips that extend out of the buds with a fingertip. If I start in on the buds with a scissors, I tend to get a little overzealous. :)
