    Week 2 yellowing leaves... Help please

    Are you keeping the medium soaked or just moist? You could be experiencing problems from damping off or rot because of the medium being too soggy. Just a thought.

    s.o.g from seed?

    Have you thought about investing in a 10 pack of a ruderalis type of plants so you're able to produce a small sog of an auto-flowering strain to get yourself going? You can do this at the same time you purchase another strain so you're able to strategically select a Mom plant from strain #2 for...

    noob question about recently acquired clone

    Have you ever tried cutting the bottom of original pot, dropping it in a bigger pot with soil & allowing the roots to grow through the bottom & into the medium of the bigger container? It helps with preventing transplant shock from what I've read.

    Best height to vegetate

    I started to get paranoid I posted that earlier this morning after I had been up for 24 hours. Nice response, I am laughing in my chair right now. :) Sativas I personally wouldn't go vegging past 1 foot at maximum because the plant could potentially triple in size in the 1st 4 weeks of...

    Can you use a 1000 watt MH to root clones/seedlings?

    What he said. Your seedlings don't need that much juice until you start the vegetative period hands down.

    Question about cold room and starting seeds..

    MJ can survive temps down to 60 degrees without any adverse effects depending on the strain & genetics. What you don't want is your ambient temperature in your grow space going + or - 10 degrees Fahrenheit. If you go beyond a 10 degree threshold it can stress the plants, produce more herms...

    Sure, make sure you keep the temps regulated & not TOO hot. Have your rockwool kept moist but DONT keep it soaked!

    Which Strain is best for me?

    Are you taking absolutely ANYTHING else like vitamins, over the counter stuff, anitdepressents etc? MJ effects people in different ways whereby no 2 people are the same. What I myself & other people have tried may have worked for us but it may not produce the results you are after when you...

    Harvesting most of plant and then putting it back in flower room under 12/12

    You can if there are underdeveloped buds and (or) colas. If you're going from harvest back into a 12/12 flowering after not going back into vegetative growth then the plant will die out. Also, if you are hypothetically harvesting the plant & do go back into veg then the plant is going to show...

    Best height to vegetate

    It depends on the strain. Some work well to veg to only 6 inches because they are more Sativa dominant and will reach 3-4 feet by the time they are done stretching through flowering. Other plants you can veg until they are a foot in height & they will turn out fine. What strain are you working...

    Which Strain is best for me?

    Due to the high being "Sedative" I would imagine it may not be your most ideal selection for a wake & bake session because it having a more "down" kind of stone. The last thing you may want to have is trying to get up & start the day and you're knocked out on the couch because of the effects...

    Lowryder #2 x AK47 First time grow Need some advise please

    What size is the space you are growing in? Lighting is one of the single most important parts of your prospected grow here. Your total light output for HID lighting should be ideally 60 watts per square foot. So a room that is 4' wide by 4' deep would need 960 watts of light to cover the...

    Which Strain is best for me?

    I have someone I'm growing for who was looking for exactly these effects. They need the MJ to help with chronic knee pain & didn't want the knock your ass out kind of high. Now another patient is asking for that type of high & decided that Aurora Indica is the best road to travel. Here's an...

    Question about cold room and starting seeds..

    Germ with pre-soaked rockwool cubes that are PH balanced. Use a germination mat if you are able to afford one as this definitely comes in handy whenever you germinate seeds of any kind. Ensure your seeds are kept moist but NOT soaking wet or your seeds are going to rot or damp off. If temps are...

    DJ Short's Blueberry ???

    I'll have to see if I can get some o' that stuff tracked down in seed form. I just found out a few days that SubCool is from Oregon & in looking at the recent "Big Book of Buds Vol. 4" Stoney Girl Gardens has a few strains in there. I am curious if this is another big reason why people from Cali...
