Most strains will not flower with 20 hours of light per day.

I have read the entire thread maybe I'm just being dumb. I thought that you said you transplanted to larger pots then flipped the lights to 12/12 after only five days in the larger pots. I may have confused another thread or something. I was simply saying that I'd give the plants more than...

I dont' think I follow, you start your plants in rockwool cubes then veg for only a couple days then flower? What I mean by veg in hydroton is to have your buckets stay in the veg light cycle. YOu don't have to start your seeds in it. You can put the rockwool cube in like you do, but let them...

I use calibration solution and calibrate my meter at least once a month. It is part of maintaining the meter, you can't buy it calibrated and assume it will not need it again. I have pH and PPM calibration solutions that are cheap to buy. Also, make sure you store it in a storage solution so...

do you expect the roots to develop in 12/12? I used to transplant rock wool cubes into my hydroton buckets at the time I was flowering and when I harvested there where almost no roots! If I had to do it again with buckets and hydroton, I'd veg in the hydroton...

if canna a + b is good for veg and flowering why do you need to add anything? I don't use canna a + b but have seen it work fine all by it self.

I'll be watching, too.

It is just a cutting that got rooted. Some people call this a clone. check google... http://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+root+cannabis+clippings&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

Because there are many myths that drive people to buy things. General Hydro makes what people demand. N *is* the most needed. Check out dyna-gro foliage pro. It is a one part liquid that is well balanced. check out this thread...

just wanted to share this link: http://forums2.gardenweb.com/forums/load/contain/msg0420085231701.html?112 I have learned (and am doing) that you can get pot to drain completely by hanging a wick from the bottom soil that goes out trough a drain hole. If you have already planted and want to...

UB, I'm a bit confused. If I have understood you correctly, you have said that the Lucas formula doesn't have all 16 minerals that a plant needs and that this isn't a good thing. Jack's doesn't either. I do grow in soil and know that the Lucas formula is targeted for hydro. Maybe this is why...

so many people transplant into large pots right before they flower So if I go from 1 gal pots into 5 gal, I need to let them veg for a while in the 5 before flipping them, right? I guess I should make more space for my veg area.

UB, I know we can't follow a schedule and must learn to read a plants needs. Do you have any guidelines to how to start feeding? I found this in an other thread: I find my self always feeding week nutes and not wanting to burn my plants. I'm new to soil and in hydro I never really stepped...

Why do you believe this? Did you friend do a controlled experiment or just stick a nail in a plant that may or may not have been going to do better and say the nail caused it to yield more. Just cause you can correlate something doesn't show causation. He may have changed something else...

Maybe you should think of think as 'respond'. As in respond to stress in a way that best gives it a chance to reproduce. People ask if evolution has a intelligence. I say no, things are just simply falling into their place as dictated by the laws of physics. Plants may not think like you do...

I would top it really low. if you want large colas and a sturdy plant. This is how I do mine. I like to veg them a long time...

shouldn't this be the goal not something to shy away from? I think knowing how plants work is key to being a productive gardener. I was under the impression that many people have read up on how plants work and are seeking to continue learning more about this very topic.

Is this guy trolling? I'm not sure if this post is serious or just trying to get some to get a reaction like "read the first page" or "learn how to read". I don't want to be an asshole but I don't want to feed trolls... This seems like a joke post to me. I mean "so I don't have to read a...

Which hormones are different? I was not aware of this. How does this affect the behavior?

I don't think it is too much to answer, it is that it has already been answered. If I where you I'd try to do your own research as much as possible, you'll learn a lot more that way. Being lazy doesn't work well when growing. It will cause your plants to suffer. So if you are rendered lazy...
