    Is this marijuana???

    Now there's an idea. Can't see how that does anybody any harm, good thinking. If the plants in question are indeed weed, of course.

    Is this marijuana???

    Guys guys guys, I jest. I wouldn't be stealing a poor 80 year old's weed, even if it is by the side of the road. I agree, "do not covet thy neighbor's weed," well put. Stealing isn't the spirit of stoners I know and love. But yeah, the pic is pretty blurry, so it could be something that just...

    First time grow

    Yeah, it'll effect your bill very minimally. I doubt very seriously that anyone would notice, unless your parents regularly calculate exactly how much they spend down to what lights are on when, etc. The great thing about CFL's is that they take very small amounts of juice to run while still...

    Is this marijuana???

    Well it's weed, so it can't be all that bad.. ;) But really, it's next to impossible to guess what particular strain of weed it is or whether it's good, other than educated generalizations like the honorable Mr. Chitownsmoking's. There's only one way to find that out for sure, if you know what...

    need advice

    Well he said it's already three feet tall, so.. Unless you meant it'll grow 2-3 feet, in which case, wow. Regardless, you can expect something of a beanpole, my man. Can't say how much taller it'll get, but it'll grow a little, yeah. Adding night crawlers.. interesting idea! Have nute...

    First time grow

    I'm home from school for the summer, and I'm doing a stealth grow in my closet. It's definitely possible, but I'd dedicate some serious thought to how you plan not to get caught. If I stuck a weed plant in the corner of my room, it would be noticed. Definitely apply some tact, and as...

    How do you catch the water drainage?

    They actually make drainage things designed to go beneath flower pots in varying sizes out of plastic, clay, etc. which you should find at a hardware store or garden shop. Most of the purpose made things have feet that hold the pot up out of the drainage water. But, like everyone's said, you...

    Feeding Urine to your plants.

    Huh, good info. That's interesting, I'll have to look it up. I do believe that there are tons of nettles in the fields around here, I may be in nitrogen land. Cow manure, horse manure, urine, now nettles.. all this free nutage is cool.

    Feeding Urine to your plants.

    Yeah man, do it. It's legit and it works. There is no effect on taste or anything to do with smell, appearance, etc. Literally all that happens is the roots pull the nutrients out and use it for growth, etc, just like they would with other organic nutrients. Plants use all the elements and...

    Any Ideas What Strain This May Be??? +rep

    Paaa, Kaleo, cracked me up. Ha, nice. Your own little brand, man. Pretty soon that stuff will be the talk of the town. I'm in the same boat, though. My current grow is from bagseed that was in some good middies (er, good other than being seedy..). No idea what strain it is, because our...

    how does my 1 plant grow look so far?

    I agree with TLeom, I was about to say the same thing. It looks great, you're doing a fantastic job. The only one thing I'd recommend doing is moving it up so it's only a few inches below the lights. The CFL's won't get nearly hot enough to burn it or even really dry it out, so you can get it...

    When to collect seeds?

    Like I said, sorry to have made the joke, my man. You asked a good question, I just grew up around plants of all kinds since my mom always had me involved in gardening and whatnot, so I forget what's obvious and what's not about them.

    Feeding Urine to your plants.

    Yeah dudes, there was just a thread on this earlier in the weed, er.. week. I accidentally typed that, but lol's are great, so I left it. Plus, baked. Anyway, yeah, human urine contains very high levels of naturally occurring (..obviously..) nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium, which are...

    When to collect seeds?

    F'n A to that. Sorry to have made the joke, there really is a balls ton of stuff to learn when you're just starting out. The one thing I reeeally would recommend though is looking into cloning.

    When to collect seeds?

    Seriously man, this isn't "pot head / weed grower" knowledge, this is basic comprehension of how plants work... It's like asking if babies are born before or after sex... ;) But yeah, goosecomander hit it on the head. The bud on the female plant is the female reproductive system. The pollen...

    slow growth? 1st grow 10 days old

    Absolutely. Keep in mind, weed is a weeeeeeed. This stuff grows anywhere. Definitely don't worry, if it started it'll roll right along. It might be marginally happier in better quality soil, sure, but I definitely wouldn't be afraid it'll die just because it's in MG soil. If it makes you...

    first time out...

    Yow! Yeah, your growing location is daring, my friend. That's ballsy! I guess nobody can really see them from down below, so heck, why not. Props to you, good sir! If your plants are getting lopsided because of the angle of light, just rotate them. All plants naturally reach for the light...

    Plants in small pots bad?

    It shouldn't kill them or do them any damage as long as the roots aren't horrendously cramped, but you'll probably want to re-pot them into something more comfortable soon. The more expansive and uninhibited the root system is, the healthier the plant tends to be.

    watering plants with coffee?

    I think that's awesome.

    What's next???

    Definitely give it a longer light schedule. I had mine on 24/0 for about a month, which did them good. I've moved them to 18/6 now they're a bit bigger. Also, Kaleo has a good point about starting another.. If this one turns out to be a male, you'll be out of luck, my man. The difference...
