    How tall is tall?

    Don't have a hissy fit, and pull your panties out of a bunch. There are too many factors that can affect the end height, not limited to size of root space, lighting, nutes, available height, etc. It would be like a new mother walking into your office and asking you to tell her exactly how tall...

    How tall is tall?

    I think Bone is on to something. I always got the feeling it would give an indication of how stretchy the plant would turn out. You can grow an 8 foot plant indoors, you just have to tie it down right. Topping and fimming are other great ways to control the height, so I wouldn't let the...

    what does it mean when the tips of my leaves are currling under.

    Let the soil dry out before you feed again- it happens to me when I drown the roots.

    Im an agnostic....

    I know what you mean. I have an asian friend that owns a dojo, and his dad is stricken with IBS. So . . . He is a slap-happy jappy with a crap-happy pappy.

    How do I grow autoflowers?

    I grew mine at 18/6 with pretty good results. A buddy of mine tried growing them under 12/12 and found the overall production to be quite lacking. Since you don't have to change photoperiod to get it to flower you will want to maximize the amount of light you give it to induce vigorous growth.

    Found a seed no nanner did 1 hermie ruin all my weed?!?!?!?

    Unless you find a male flower in there, you will never know. It is possible a stray bit of pollen worked its way in from outside. If you want to prevent further seed formation now, and in the future, you might want to check into Dutch Masters Reverse. It kills any male flowers without affecting...

    Is craming high powered lights in a small area beneficial??

    Thats like saying you can't judge a car's performance by its speed. Color temperature is important, but the amount of energy the light is producing is more important. The bigger the pot, the bigger the roots, the bigger the harvest.

    Is craming high powered lights in a small area beneficial??

    Best thing is to go off the lumens. If you can find an LED with similar lumen values as HID you would expect the same amount after harvest. Yield can be affected by many things, but growers will usually try to shoot for a gram per watt. Starting off you might not get that much, but will 600...

    Is craming high powered lights in a small area beneficial??

    With that setup, you have a total grow space of 7.5 square feet, which is a little over 80% of a square meter. Because the space is smaller, overall yield can be affected, but a great way to counter this is with more light. Just make sure you have a good cooling system setup- that much light in...

    kept a hermie, is that bad?

    True- a feminized seed comes from a female mother and a female "father" that has been induced to hermie. The breeders will generally use the natural method to induce hermies, and they will do this towards the end of flower so they know it is a "stabilized" hermie trait. If your hermie showed up...

    How do I grow autoflowers?

    for autoflowers you can run the lights 18/6 from seed to finish. autoflowers don't have to have the hours changed to produce flowers. They are generally nute sensitive, so be careful not to burn them.

    I have to be honest, I don't start checking the trichs until towards the end of flowering- I don't know if what you have described is normal or abnormal. If the leaves look healthy then there is little else that can be done, except for adding more nutes but be careful if you do so they won't get...

    is my darling daughter a hermaphrodite ? This calls for a second opinion

    Good news: it isn't a hermie. Bad news: it is a male plant. If it is a stabilized hybrid, then yes, the seeds produced would be autoflower. If it isn't a stabilized strain, then about half should have the autoflower trait.

    CO2 from fallen tree leaves?

    decaying plant matter won't generate co2- usually decaying organic matter will create methane. If you are wanting a natural way to produce co2, fermentation would be a good way to do this. Welcome to RIU.

    startup cost?

    Startup costs can vary from a couple of hundred dollars to several thousand, depending on what you buy, what you make, and what you have available. First is the grow space; if you don't have a closet or room, a small chamber can be built out of scrap lumber. Lights are important, but can be...
