    Flowering early?

    So I got my seeds started real early this year; like around March. So early in fact, that they began to flower as soon as they hit about 6 inches tall. Bummer! I was keeping them in a sunny bay window, but they clearly we're not receiving enough light. I managed to save one plant by topping...

    My autoflowers are already budding

    I have two autoflowers, still inside and only about 3 - 4 inches tall. They've only been in the ground since about March 1, and they are already budding! What should I do about fertilizing? I'd like them to grow bigger; much bigger in fact. Should I switch off the weak Nitrogen nute I've...

    The Right kind of light bulb

    Okay, I've got 4 little girls started. Until the weather warms up consistently, I can't move the outside. Right now I've got them under 7, 100 watt Compact fluorescent bulbs - the kind from the hardware store - 18 hours on, 6 off. Been close to a week. I'm not seeing much of any growth...

    lighting question

    New plants just poked their little heads up yesterday! Yea, so excited! So far there are two auto-flower and two photo-flower. When growing outdoors, is it necessary for the plants to have direct sunlight, or is daylight enough. I only have a few spots that receive significant sunshine all...

    Expecting heavy rain next couple of days

    Buds are at about 8 weeks or so, getting big and smelly. should I worry about heavy rains; not damaging the plant so much as damaging the buds. Also, some of the buds / whole branches, appear to done; not producing white hairs anymore. The rest of the plant is still going, although slowly...

    Need a little advice...

    I've got a female plant here - Russian Rocket fuel. About 4 feet tall and been in flower stage for close 3 or 4 weeks. Just last week I trimmed off the vast majority of leaf to expose what the many, many little buds all over the plant. I fertilize regularly with a 'blossom booster fertilizer...

    I've got a lighting question...

    I have one plant that apparently was an autoflower, and has already gone to bud. Unfortunately it is not near as big as I hoped it would be when this occurred. Since it is still kind of early spring weather in here in the Northeast, and sunny days can be few and far between, I thought I would...

    Is this enough light to get something started?

    My outdoor girls turned out to be boys... Since I still have some (bag) seeds left, I'm thinking of trying to get a half dozen or so plants quickly going under some lights. I can throw together a pretty good grow 'shed' by the weekend, and I think I still have an easy 8 - 10 weeks of growing...

    Just found out my two girls are - gasp! - Boys!

    They were outdoor plants, and since I have some seeds left over (bag seed, :sad:) I'm thinking of trying to get some new plants going under some lights before it's too late. I figure I have about 6 - 8 weeks at least of growing time. Am I wasting my time? Is that a long enough time period to...

    One of the most basic questions...

    A little background first... The first (and last) time I grew weed was about 35 years ago. Back then we didn't know much about it other than 'girls' were good, and 'boys' were bad. Buds were bad as that meant seeds, and we knew seeds reduced potency. So we grew for leaf, and rolled huge...

    My plant got root-bound...

    Got a beautiful plant started extremely early - late March. Had over 30 'tops' on it, but around July it became root-bound in its 5-gallon bucket and began to look sickly and weak. Leaves dropping off, small new leaf production. I've since replanted it in the garden (my wife said okay), but...
