    take a look at this clone and tell me wtf is going on (yellowing from top down?)

    it's purple kush, it was cut last tuesday and placed in rockwool. i've been hardening it off every couple days until it droops and then popping it back in the dome. rockwool is the perfect amount of saturated, just barely wet to the touch. with a semi firm pull i can't get it out of the...

    what should i look for in a 1000w ballast? (vertical grow)

    hey guys, i'm about to pick up a 1000w ballast and i have a few questions. i'll be mounting the bulb vertically without a reflector, do all ballasts come with sockets or do you typically have to buy them separately? what sort of price should i expect? what brands do you guys recommend and why?

    (4k hps) pseudo coliseum build, need tons of input!

    alright guys. i'd like to duplicate this grow with larger plants. plants will be hopefully be vegged up to 15"+ in DWC and moved to soil for flower. I hope to use 48 5-gallon buckets .. 12 per level, two levels per side. At about 2.5 ounces per plant, thats 7.5 lbs per harvest. right...

    4x1000w hps .. how would you set them up?

    would be vegging under MH up to 18" and then moving to soil for flower. would it be possible to pull 5lbs+ from under 4x1000 hps at a maximum of 30 plants? i would have to average 2.66 ounces per plant, and at 30 plants that would be 7-8 plants per 1000w light. is this feasible?

    What Would I Be Looking At For Start up Costs?

    veg: 1x600 mh (soil mommas) flower: 2x600 hps 3 30-site hydro setups this will be going in a 6x4 fabricated room. i'm not worried about costs of room construction so much as i am just lighting and the hydro setups. if you need any more info just ask, thanks.

    day 62 flower, two weeks left, may have gotten a tiny shred of light on my girl

    alright guys. somehow my cell phone fell out of my hoodie pocket while i was shutting up my girl for the night. my cab was closed but my phone was on the ground next to the cab. i think the cab is 100% light proof but there could very well be a few tiny gaps. the cab is in a closet with no...

    am i getting close? day 61, bagseed

    this is a bagseed topped for two colas under a 150. here's a closeup of one of the colas. (they're about pop bottle size). the trichs are mostly clear on the leaves but amber on any orange hairs - some milkiness but i'm not even going to venture a guess as to what percentages. would you guys...

    week 8 of flower starts today - no bigger fan leaves left

    hey guys. i have a single plant topped for two colas under a 150hps and 23x6 cfls. as it stands, it looks like my yield is going to end up being about 1oz when everything is dried. this is quite acceptable for my first grow, so i'm pleased. my question is this: i vegged the plant for a...

    day 47 of flower - extra 20 minutes of light

    one of my timers took a shit on me this afternoon i guess. i went into my grow room and four cfl's were still on 20 minutes into what is supposed to be the dark period (i have a 150hps + 6 23w cfl's on one plant) think its enough to mess up the flowering cycle and/or herm it out, or should i...

    starting week 5 of flower today - random pistils turning already

    single bagseed plant, week 5 starts today, topped for two main colas with a 150hps and six 23w cfl's. fox farm nutes. i noticed some tiny growths yesterday which i pray aren't going to turn into pollen sacs. they're probably half the size of a pinhead at this point. the main pistils at each...

    tying a sack around possible hermie growth?

    i have a single plant flowering at the moment, one day short of starting week 5. i topped it for two main colas. there are a couple very tiny growths near the stipules at one of the very bottom nodes. i'll know in the next couple days if they're sacs or not. if so .... rather than picking...

    (+rep) Anybody use low strength veg nutes through flower? If not, when do you quit?

    My leaves are yellowing a bit faster than I feel comfortable with at 22 days into flower. Nearly 1/3 of the bottom large fan leaves have yellowed to the point of being easily picked off. The buds are really starting to swell so I know they're using every bit of nitrogen they can. I'm using FF...

    nitrogen deficiency, day 19 flower

    okay, so i definitely have signs of nitrogen deficiency at day 19 of flower. the lowest two levels of fan leaves are starting to yellow pretty heavily, and my stems are turning red throughout. i know yellowing is okay as the plant sucks nutrients from the lower levels during flower, but how...

    can somebody outline the typical stages of the flowering cycle for me?

    i'm at day 19 of flower on my first ever grow. things are coming along well, the buds are really starting to get hairy. they're not all that huge yet but i like the progress they're making so far. my question is, what (generally) is the time line for flowering? when do buds really start to...

    who has ever picked off a male preflower during flower and made it to harvest?

    here's the deal: i have two bagseed plants about 3" tall now under 150hps and 6 23w CFL's. they are currently in the third week of flower. two days in a row my lights off time was off by 15-20 minutes. the HPS turned off, but i didn't get home from work in time to shut off the CFL's which...

    how soon after stress do hermies show?

    assume you interrupted your dark period for a solid hour with HPS, MH, CFL, and LED lights strobing to the sound of yoko ono singing the national anthem. how soon after would you expect hermies to show? a day? a week?
