    Magnesium Deficiency?

    Well, I treated the plants for both a nitrogen and magnesium deficiency. Based on the advice I received here, I repotted the plants to 2-3 gallon containers - I really only had them in 1 gallon ones before. I also added a higher nitrogen level fertilizer (at half strength) to my fertilizer...

    BC Seedking

    As my first 'experimental' grow is coming to an end, I decided to order some seeds for a second kick at the can (now that I've gained *some* knowledge). I ordered from BC Seedking (Marijuana Seeds, Cannabis Seeds Online) based on the reviews on this site, and chose Purps Marijuana Seeds, which...

    traveling locally

    If you're travelling and you have an Amex credit card, you can have mail held for you at Amex offices around the world. I've never tried to mail anything which might be illegal, that part's up to you.

    Magnesium Deficiency?

    Thank you for your very detailed response. I transplanted into the 2 gal pots about 6 weeks ago, using all purpose potting soil by CIL. While vegging, I fertilized with Schultz liquid plant food 10-15-10. On the recommendation of a salesperson at Pacific Northwest Garden Supply, in...

    Magnesium Deficiency?

    Thanks for your help. I am growing in soil, suing Pureblend Bloom original, diluted to 3 tbsp/Gallon, and just started adding 1/4 tsp of carbo load. One gallon of the 'mix' lasts about one week for three plants that are almost 3 ft high. The fertilizer really dropped the pH level, so I...

    1st Grow - Soil, Closet

    June 30 update (23 days flowering) Plants are really looking scraggly with my trial and error growing, but I'm learning a lot and the buds are getting bigger and bigger. I hope I can keep these girls alive long enough to get a harvest. I think I've got a nitrogen deficiency - I'd...

    Help - DIY Pulley system?

    Previously, I had a 125w CFL hanging straight down, and after reading on here about distance to the the bud tops, I realized that 80% of the bulb was 5 inches or more from the buds - ie wasted light. To work around this problem, I just purchased a small batwing reflector for my 125w CFL, which...

    Too late to transplant?

    thanks guys - right now I have them in 2 gallon pots, but the soil only fills them about 2/3 of the way - so call it 1 1/2 gallon pot. I was going to just top up the soil, but I'd rather have some added growth (and yield!) for the price of 3 larger pots. Thanks again!

    Too late to transplant?

    I currently have three plants on the go, about three weeks into flowering (which should take 7-8 weeks total). Lighting is from 1x125w CFL + 3x40w CFL (all 2700k) Is there anything to be gained by re-potting the plants to larger containers (ie to increase yield), at this point, or should I...

    1st Grow - Soil, Closet

    Last purchase (so far)! There were a lot of gnats buzzing around the plants, so I bought some of these ($10) to act like flypaper. About a dozen of the little buggers are already glued down after just a few days - seems to be doing the job very well.

    1st Grow - Soil, Closet

    I bought some mylar sheeting and made a tent in the closet to reflect some light and keep ambient light leaks out during the "sleep cycle". Cost was $10 for 12' (about 6 ' wide). The fella at the hydro store took pity on me and threw in a small test packet of carbo load for free. Assuming...
