A quart a day is TOO MUCH....Over watering causes that and also when the plant gets root bound in it's container it happens too. The two go hand in hand though when plants get too much water and are in containers that do have enough room for the root ball of the plant. I'd back off on the water...

The most frequently occurring plague in cannabis grows is spider mite. A spider mite isn't an insect, as many people think, but actually a tiny spider. A spider mite is small, and difficult to discover for the inexperienced eye. But the damage caused is certainly visible. The mite feeds on the...

The hermaphrodite gene is widely believed to be present in the male pollen and only idle in all females. Until pollinated. So by cloning he would have a good chance of getting his original strain and not necessarily a "hermie". My "lab" is at the University of Mississippi, I work in the only...

Phosphorus (P) deficiency during vegatative growth. Many people mistaken this for a fungus, but look for the damage to occur near the end of leave, and leaves the color dull greyish with a very brittle texture. it will turn brown later on. back off on your nutes! Peace..Autoflowerchild

Make sure the water is clean and nothing has accidentally contaminated it. Check to roots to ensure they are covered with the water as any part of the can dry out even if a small portion of the root ball is out of the water. If you adjust the ph levels then it might take a few hours to a few...

Also, since they were already in the flowering/bud development stage take several clones and grow them out. Chances are they will result in females that will be usable. It is not true that pollinated females are always going to end up being "hermies" if they get cloned. At the lab we have...

Hey, I have been growing plants and cannabis for going on 20 years in January of 2010. I work in the research field and actually grow cannabis frequently on the job! I also grow other plants also for medical companys, the gov and other agencys & companys experimenting with plant polimars...

80 degrees "maximum" would be difficult to maintain and will depend on a variety of environmental conditions that should be controlled. By an amateur grower (no offense) this is not always gonna happen right off the bat, it didn't with me too. I stated 87 MAX due to variables in room...

here are some light charts for anyone needing help with spectrums during growth stages. Peace, Autoflowerchild

Here's a good light spectrum chart for growth you'll find helpful my friend. Peace..Autoflowerchild

For the vegetation period use CFL and forget the high intensity lights until they get 12in tall or if they are autos, then it don't matter :mrgreen: You do not need to put the lights too close because you will want to get the seedlings to stretch a little bit for good stem development. With...

Don't feel like an idiot, thats how one learns by asking questions! Take something that can be formed like a metal clothes hanger and fashion a loop at one end but don't close the loop. Place it next to your seedling/plant then gently place the stem into the unclosed loop. That will help support...

Remove it immediately or you'll have more than one :mrgreen: :peace: Autoflowerchild

Thats fine because it is put in it through a manufacturing process and the ppm's are measured AND it is a different type of molasses than what you'll find at the store. Your plants more than likely "love" the fish emulsion (fish remains) more than anything else due to the amounts of omega based...

Hey friend, Foliar feeding is NOT the best way to feed a plant of any kind. The leaves of all plant are made by nature to collect and store enegry from the sun, not to collect water or in this case, nutes sprayed that is put into a mix. leaves act like a directional device in order to drive &...

Hey, Nice post! There are some proven & known disadvantages to using molasses however. As a career Horticulturist I must say that molasses is not the best thing for cannabis or for that matter, put anywhere near it. The primary reason is that it is like vinegar. In the "right"amounts it does...

Thanks! Look forward to meeting more people who like to grow too. Nice plants you got also. Peace :peace: AFC

It doesn’t take a horticulturist to see that using cloning to procure a room full of female cannabis plants is far more economical than growing “feminized seeds” that easily go hermaphroditic. It is simple to grow numerous female plants with only a few seeds of known genetics...

Sounds like good luck! Peace...Autoflowerchild

You also may wish to look at the NFT method for growing. Its very easy and cost effective. I grew a couple plants with this method and plan to grow some more this upcoming winter. Just type in "NFT growing" in the Google search bar. Good luck bro! Peace..Autoflowerchild
