I am currently growing Vanilla Kush and the Ultimate, and both are about 1/3 the size of the 5 other strains I am growing. In fact, I started 10 VK fem seeds ...only 7 survived germination and all were so small compared to the other strains that I threw 5 away and only kept 2. The Ultimate is...

Can i get some suggestions for good producers w/ a high CBD content? Thanx, Robert in Arizona

well damn. I have a couple of plants that i would really love to propagate, but oh well ... thanx

Hi, I have 7 strains that are about 3 weeks into flower and I would love to experiment with breeding some variations. All my plants were started from fem seeds, but I was wondering if any of the seed companies -- or private individuals, for that matter, -- sell pollen. Anyone know about this...

I know I read somewhere a great way to make a cheap vented light tube but I can't find the thread again. The author used inline bathroom fans and a glass cylinder used for candles from Walmart. Anyone know where the directions are? Thanx, Robert in Arizona

Thanks Wood, for all the information. I think I have just figured it out -- my ph meter wasn't correctly calibrated. I bought some ph 7.01 test water from the local hydro shop, and my meter read it at 7.9. That means that the manganese/zinc/iron micros are probably being locked out. I have...

Hi, I posted a description of some problems I am having w/ my grow (2/12 @ 6:00 PM and 9:04 PM) and have yet to receive a reply that seems appropriate. I have since changed rezs and reduced the ppm to around 1600, but the problem remains in 5 of my 7 strains. I have posted some new pics and I'm...

I can't seem to find where it is, but I think I read that SB runs his veg formula for a week or so after switching to 12/12, and then changes to the bloom formula ...is that right? Thanx, Robert

High all, In my grow I am using a modified StinkBud system -- basically I'm using all RubberMaid 18 gallon totes for everything, rather than PVC fence posts for the flower stage. The totes are black, but I have painted the tops white with paint that has been enhanced w/ titanium. According to...

Thanks, Citrus, for your input, but the Skunk has shown the same problem, just not to the extent of the others. In fact, they have all pretty much shown the same thing to varying degrees, and over the last month I have removed some fan leaves that were way worse than those in the pics. Still...

Hi again, Sorry I didn't give a full description of the set up. The ph is 5.8, and the nutrients are mixed at 125 ml of Cal-Mag Plus, 180 ml of Liquid Karma, and 540 Pure Blend Pro Grow. This is exactly the ratio of ingredients that Botanicare suggests. Also, the 3 pics in the middle show up as...

High all, The older fans leaves of several strains of my grow (Vanilla Kush, Orange Bud, and the Ultimate) have developed a problem that I can't seem to diagnose. I've included some pics below. I'm using an aero grow system ala StinkBud with Botanicare nutrients, ro water for the rez w/ nutes at...

OK. Thanks again. Rep to both of you. Robert.

Thanks again. Here's another question: I'm thinking of putting my 1000 watt Budget Grow 2 ballast in the attic space above my grow room, but the summertime heat up there will be in the 120 degree range. Will this hurt the ballast? All the best, Robert

Budley, What do you mean by a "100 wal mart airconditioner turned chiller"? Thanks again, Robert

Hi All, Well, I've searched this thread and the rest of the site and still am confused about Hygrozyme. Is it the same as Liquid Karma? Is it OK to use with Botanicare nutes? I'm running an SB type system w/ Vanilla Kush, Blueberry, Mekong High, White Widow, Orange Bud, Skunk #11, and the...

Hey All, Despite what StinkBud says about RubberMaid totes not leaking, mine leaked around the edges a lot, but I found a way to stop the leaks: Apply a thin layer of vaseline or axle grease to the top edge of the tub, then apply a bead of silicon caulk to the inside rim of the lid where the top...

Thanks Budley, I have ordered one and will give it a try. All the best, Bob

High All, I don't know if this will be useful to anyone, but I started growing 10 different strains all under the same conditions and most are about half way through veg -- and the differences between the various types are notable. The types are Vanilla Kush and Top Dawg from Barney's Farm, Cole...

Anyone have an opinion on Fresca Sol's water-cooled light fixtures? I live in Arizona and heat is my problem. Thanx, Bob
