Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I should be able to veg plants indoors for 30 days, then take them outside to flower them for 60 days - virtually any time of year. Am I mistaken? Is it the decreasing light or the small amount of light that triggers flowering? I think it's the small...

I'm not using a ballast, so I guess it is built in. Thanks. HPS just seems a bit expensive because not only will I need the bulbs and reflectors, but I'll also need the ballasts and an air conditioner. I'm sure I can find cheaper ones on the internet (like $200?), but the high quality, digital...

I was going to get 1000w high pressure sodium lamps, but I've been having success with my 125w cfl, so I'm leaning that way now. Will I need a ballast with CFLs? I'm planning to run a total of five or six 105-125w lamps. Thx.

This is an awesome thread. Some of it is a year old, but the links still work. Cool deals. Here are a couple of deals I've taken advantage of: Welder's goggles - $8 total after shipping - http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280545384050&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT White lab coat -...

I've been using a 125w compact fluorescent bulb with good success. I bought it for $59.99 plus tax from my local grow shop. I've noticed a very similar one for about half the price online. Is anyone familiar with this web site or brand? Link...

Are you growing outdoors or indoors? I agree with what people were saying about light and popcorn buds... and ease of watering. I'm growing an OG Kush plant on my balcony and it has been flowering. However, I've been trimming the new growth on the top in order to increase the size of the buds...

Thanks. Here's a pic.

For the past month, one of my potted plants in soil has been "acquiring" yellow mushrooms. In fact, I imagine a few spores were released either from the plant or the air and they created a few mushrooms. Then I've been pulling them out and probably spreading them a tiny bit, so I haven't been...

Could any type of poison be given to a cannabis plant that would end up not killing the plant, BUT killing the smoker who smokes its buds? I'm curious for my own interest and safety and I'm NOT interested in doing this. Just fyi. I'm not a killa. Thanks.

The guys at my local grow store seem a little conflicted on this one. One guy says I should flush for a week or so and the other said it isn't necessary with the nutrients I'm using (e.g. Terra Flores). What do you think? Will I get a much better taste if I flush?

Any reason you chose those two strains to grow together? One is a sativa and will grow about 6' tall and the other is indica and will grow about 5' tall. If you want an even canopy - and you should - this could be a problem. You'll need to do some serious topping, bending, etc. I'm growing a...

p.s. if you're going to clone it, clone it now before you start flowering... otherwise i think it takes 20 years to get new growth from a clone cut during flowering

Hey hotshot, Are you really only using 24 watts? How many days have these been vegging for? Putting it outside in good light is a good idea - after vegging 30 days - but it should begin flowering immediately (not in 3 weeks like someone said). I veg indoors and put them on my balcony and they...

Neem is organic. They say you should avoid Neem in the flowering stage, mainly because you don't want to spray anything on the plant in that stage because it will increase the amount of moisture in the buds and cause them to mold/rot. However, spot treating works and I find it takes a little bit...

Yeah, I don't think it's ready either. I've seen some pics of Blue Dream Haze buds - albeit old ones - and they do have amber hairs on them. Any idea when it'll be ready? The white spots are called powdery mildew. I leave near the beach, so it's a constant fight. When the plant is in the...

Thanks for your reply. Do you have any experience with outdoor growing?

Hey RIU, I've heard that a few cannabis strains don't get amber hairs, that they stay white when they're ripe. I'm wondering which ones stay white. I have a Blue Dream Haze clone that's about 6' tall. I started growing it as a tiny clone on May 4, 2010, so it has been growing for 4 months on my...

You have some very nice looking plants! : ) I'm growing on my balcony near the beach, so I'm fighting powdery mildew. Which is no fun. It actually consumed my Bubba Kush plant! Since the buds are so dense, the humidity and moisture actually caused some bud rot. Plus, that plant had some serious...

How are your GDP's looking? I just started growing my first one on 8/10 and I recently topped it and used the cutting as a clone. So far, so good! It really likes my 125w compact fluorescent veg bulb.

Awesome. Thanks! I've actually done this, but the result hasn't been that potent. I even bought empty gel caps to put the end product with a little bit of olive oil into. Do you happen to know the ratio? I've experimented with a gram and if I can recall correctly, I've even tried a gram or...
