Fresh air is a must for a healthy garden friend; fresh circulating air to be precise. Plants use the immediate surrounding areas around the leafs, if there is no air circulating around these the transpiration rates drop and this is a no no for a garden such as yours, you want high transpiration...

This happens when there is a leaf on top or near the top of another leaf very close together. The bottom one transpires and the moisture is accumulated between the leafs resulting in a wet leaf; has nothing to do with what kind of setup you have. This is nothing to be worried about.

You will start to see improvements (if any) in the new growth. Old leafs will remain yellow; only new growth will tell you if what you added worked or not.

I've had those before on my girls. In my case it was a splashing of pH buffering solution that landed on her and made those "bleached" looking spots. Make sure you don't use those near your girls. If problems persists it might be something else. Hope it helps.

Hey Smiffy, nice girl there. Ice is a Nitrogen fiend all throughout the vegetative stage. I recommend feeding her right away with a very minor Micro (5-0-1) feed; that should allow those yellowing tips to get nice and green (use less than 300ppm nutrient solution). Keep her on a more N rich...

Aw man I feel your pain. In my last grow a 6 inch fan landed one one side of my girl and chopped a bunch of shoots and fan leafs straight off of my Kalashnikova. If this strain was renown to have herm tendencies after the fan landed on her she was predestined to grow balls. She did unfortunately...

This question has been in debate for years and years. IMO there is no debate; plants need a dark cycle to grow better. If plants need a dark cycle to induce flowering shouldn't this tell you something about the importance of a dark cycle in both vegetative and flowering stages. IMO there is a...

I grew GHS Kalashnikova in a normal 18/6|12/12 cycle and she hermed on me. Same goes for a few more members here in RIU. Check the grow journals sub forum and search Kalashnikova and you'll see what I mean. It's a shame because it grows strong and very very bushy, no need to top or nothing. She...

Hey guys, great thread first off, been reading it for a couple of hours now and the info and pics are really motivating me to try a 12/12 grow. I've always been a 18/6|12/12 type of grower but lately I've been repsented with a space and time dilemma; which can be solved by having a single 12/12...

Same as when you hang it individually; each case varies depending on the grow. Usually only adds a few more days (2-3) to the dry. Just more plant matter to suck moisture from so it takes a few more days.

Hello baker, I would recommend a auto-flower strain to begin. They are derived in part from the "Rudelaris" side of the weed family and in general contain less THC than your better Indica or Sativa strains. You can also try and harvest sooner than what the breeder says for flowering and have her...

Ha , what do you know, another person who does the same thing as me. What I do is get all the trimmings, dry them, cure them and store them. During the week days, specially in my lunch break, I turn on the vaporizer and take a few hits of the cured crushed trimmings and it gives me a very light...

If you cut the entire tree as a whole and hang it to dry then yes it will delay drying, they should be ok when you return. Try and keep a fan oscillating in the drying space BUT NEVER DIRECTLY ON THE BUDS OR THE TREE because this will speed up drying but you must have one in the room to keep the...

IMO this technique can be strain dependent; some may react different than others. I've used this technique in several grows and with some I see a difference with some I don't. This is NOT recommended for hydro applications; starving a plant for 2 weeks in hydro can cause it to even herm because...

The middle lady looks so healthy and green. Good work so far bro.

She looks great man. What I was asking was which do you tend to use more, pH up or pH down. I think you misunderstood the poll.

So you use exactly the same amount of each every time?? Nutrients do the buffering but there has to be one that you use more, can't be exactly the same of each throughout all your grows.

Today I was sifting through the forum about a pH problem I'm having and I see that in general people tend to have more problems with a higher pH. I want to know if this is true and maybe have this thread as proof. Me for one have NEVER EVER had a problem with a low pH, it's always been towards...

Hey Sir.G thanks for the reply. Yeah I didn't do much of it either, just on a couple of shoots that were getting ridiculously tall in comparison with the rest. I want to talk a bit about using the light to control the canopy. Using an HID does help control the canopy but I am a bit unsure as to...

Got it! Bought the Sun System 150W. This is perfect because the ballast is inside the actual fixture and the size is perfect for a small space as a supplement to the main light. Dimensions of the entire fixture is only 15''x4.5''x7.75''! Great recommendation, thank you very much. Price perfect...
