    Not understanding bud formation. looking for answers

    a lot of people use 12/12 when they have height/size restrictions. it works, just keeps em small. they still have a few weeks of veg, since they aren't mature enough to start showing signs of sex. do you have any pics?

    Pc grow-White Russian

    might not be a bad idea to do a little bit of lst if you're concerned about height..i would've stayed in veg a bit longer so the under growth has some time to grow before flowering. but i think you should be more than okay with your space as it is

    My PC Grow Box Design

    bet you could get a pretty penny (or shilling) for one of those on ebay..especially if you included everything. i'd just be worried about the legal ramifications of it..stand free, wherever you may be ;)

    growing in soil.. ideal pH and ppm's of runoff water?

    so i could add nutes now at near full strength? i'm currently in week 7 since sprout, week 3 of 12/12, 8 days since signs of pistils. i know the soil already has nutes, and i just didn't want to burn em now. after the first feed they did perk up a lot and looked happier, i just didn't want to...

    growing in soil.. ideal pH and ppm's of runoff water?

    oh yeah, i guess i should've stated that. oops. i've been using RO water only (pH 7.0/0-1ppm..as one would hope) up until a few days ago. i did two feeds, 3 days apart (feed-water-rest-feed) and the OP numbers were the results after the 2nd water of that cycle. i'm using miracle grow african...

    growing in soil.. ideal pH and ppm's of runoff water?

    so i'm trying to figure out what to do with the readings that i've taken of my runoff water in my plant. what is the ideal ppm's and pH of the water runoff growing in soil? i've seen people say that 'you need to check it' but what am i checking for? currently, the pH of my runoff is 6.7-6.9 (i'm...

    My PC Grow Box Design

    looks friggin amazing, but just a few things i've learned from my pc build you may want to take into consideration.. 1) what are you doing for your carbon filter? i'm guessing you're going to be using pc fans? if that's the case, ideally, you want the fans to be pulling air through the filter...

    First Cabinet – Winter grow

    ^ how many weeks into flower are you? i know late into flower it's not unusual for the leaves to yellow..basically what you said, it's kind of a last ditch effort to put everything it can into bud production before 'winter.' i'm only 2 weeks into 12/12 (5 or 6 days since first pistils emerged)...

    Marijuana Plants and Aluminum foil. your opinion?

    their reflectors are to optimize clarity, not diffuse light evenly.... aluminum is aluminum. there are better ways of creating a better reflecting sheet of it, but it's still aluminum you never made one of those box-oven things in elementary school? you can definitely burn some stuff up...

    Marijuana Plants and Aluminum foil. your opinion?

    the reflection of light from an evenly textured surface, like the pebbled aluminum, will evenly reflect light. aluminum foil, because it's smooth and prone to wrinkling, the hard/uneven angles of the wrinkles will cause light to reflect at odd angles and unevenly, thus causing hotspots. it's not...

    Best fan for stealth grow

    i found putting filters and such directly in front of the fan (so that it's pulling the air through the filter) increases noise a fair amount. if you do the DIY carbon filter thing with the pencil cups, even though it's blowing air into the filter, rather than pulling it through, because there's...

    my first grow: pc case x lst x bagseed

    so how long into flower should i keep lst'ing? all of the other shoots are showing white hairs now and i'm thinking i'm just gonna let her go and not do any more lst, or only enough to contain her. there's also roots that have come out of the drain holes..is it okay for them to be just sitting...

    my first grow: pc case x lst x bagseed

    i was hoping they'd both be female, but i'm actually glad it's just one..haha. space was TIGHT in there with the two..gives me more room for her to grow

    my first grow: pc case x lst x bagseed

    this place sure has dropped off since the 'data loss' eh? well, i'm gonna give that one plant one more day, but i'm 99% sure it's a male. however, the other one i saw my first white hairs! i'll take pictures tomorrow if i have time

    my first grow: pc case x lst x bagseed

    took the pics late last night and was too tired to update. anyways, here's the newest pics. this is at exactly 5 weeks, 1 week into 12/12. the one plant looks like it's starting to show signs of sex, i think it might be male? on to the pics. they're looking pretty droopy cause it was time to...

    thinking about making a stealth pc grow box

    it's not totally pointless, but i definitely wish i had more space. what are the dimensions of the case? i fit four 23 watt bulbs in mine. i'm just using bagseed and if you use scrog or lst you can increase your yield greatly

    can someone help on lighting ideas

    use as many bulbs as you can. more smaller, lower wattage bulbs will do more for you than fewer, higher wattage bulbs. but if you can do a mix, go for that. you want 6500k bulbs for veg and 2700k for flower. i used one bulb of the alternate color temp for each period just to give a little bit...

    my first grow: pc case x lst x bagseed

    so i had a thread before and then the board time traveled, so i suppose i'll redo my thread. i won't repost all the pics, but just some of the highlights. it's week 5 from sprout, switched to 12/12 last sunday, so it's been a week in 12/12. no sex showing yet, but i'm thinking sometime this...
