These were supposed to be feminized seeds…but this looks like a make to me… right?

Hi all, I have had issues with spider mites in my tent for about a year now. It is a 65-gallon pot with organic, no-till soil. I've tried neem, dr. bronners, and just spraying with straight water. These seem to deal with them in the short term, but they always come back. I've read that they...

I'm looking at ordering more amendments, and the larger sizes are a much better deal, but I am wondering which ones will go bad/lose effectiveness over time. Here is a list of amendments that I use: Crab Meal Kelp Meal Neem/Karanja cake Malted Barley Alfalfa Rock Dusts (Glacial, Basalt...

I am using the Clackamas Coot mix/routine (mostly). I've got my no-till bed all set up, going great. Top dressing with Malted Barley Powder, Kelp, and Neem. I'm having some issues with the barley though. I've been getting a rash on my hands when working in there. Just wondering if other grains...

I'm wondering which type of glasses I should wear to protect my eyes from LED lighting? I am using 4x CREE CXB3590 leds on a 320W driver. (3500k colour temperature) Should I use a pair of the LED glasses (usually green), or something else? It seems they are meant for the blurple leds, not the...

Hey guys, I noticed these little white/brown specs all over my soaker hose. Any idea what it is?

Hey guys, I've been having issues keeping humidity down in late flower. I have a 3x3' tent with a 65 gallon no-till bed (with a thick layer of mulch), blumat soaker hoses (buried under the mulch), and a trellis for scrog. I've got a 4" variable speed (195cfm) exhaust fan as well as a 100cfm...

I’m looking at setting up a camera to do a time-lapse of my tent. I think it would be neat, and even useful to compare between grows. From what I read, I’ll need an intervalometer and a camera. I found a couple intervalometers on amazon.ca(I’m in Canada), but they say compatible with only...

hey guys, so I’m wondering about using a lux vs PAR meter. I read a while back that there’s is some conversion for CFL/ fluorescent light when using lux, but that it doesn’t work with the blue/redLEDs. What I’m wondering is, would a 3500k CREE COB be able to do this type of conversion, since...

I currently have a 600W Viparspectra LED for veg, and I add another 300W Viparspectra during flower. I'm interesting in upgrading to something stronger, possibly COB's. But I'm a but confused on what to get, and how to set them up. Could use some input, what do you guys all find works best?

Does anyone know what these are and how to get rid of them? They are in the box I have set up for my clones. Haven’t made it into my flowering tent, only a few feet away though. Thanks for the help. I was thinking about using neem(more than I already have been). It’s an organic grow, also.

so I have about a pound of red wigglers in a 10 gallon fabric pot (16” diameter, 12” height) I’m wondering what the upper limit of worms in there will be, when they populate the bin to the fullest? Ready to set up a second one, but I’m going to be taking about a half pound out for my new...

Hey guys, I’m about two weeks from harvest. My one plant looks like it is starting to die... any idea what is happening? I was thinking nutrient burn at first, but I’m not using bottled nutrients.

Hey guys, so in nearly ready to set up my organic no till bed for my next cycle, just waiting on the bed itself. I’m wondering what cover crops have the most shallow roots? I obviously don’t want them to compete too much, as I’ll have 4 plants in a 65 gallon. I have alfalfa/clover growing in...

Hey guys, I usually run my grow tent at 75F and I’m having a hard time keeping it under 77 and even 78 sometimes. It’s a 3x3x6 foot tent, have a 4” exhaust fan running at full right now. It’s in my basement, which is around 65-72 degrees, more like a constant 70+ right now. There are two LED...

Hey guys, I just separated my red wigglers from my unfinished vermocompost, and transfered them to a new bin with much better bedding. I noticed a ton of cocoons in the “vermicompost”, and I’m wondering what the best temperature is to incumbent them? I read 50F for breeding, and 70F plus for...

So from what I've gathered (mostly from clackamas coot), aeration is key to a good worm bin. So basically, you use 2 parts aged manure or thermal compost, and 1 part lava rock/pumice. What I'm confused about is what happens to the aeration when I'm done, do I just separate it from the castings...

hey guys, I’m looking to upgrade my worm bin from a 5 gallon bucket to 20ish gallon tote. I currently am using a 2 bucket system, with holes drilled in the bottom of the top bucket for drainage, and I cut everything but he rim off the lid, and cover with a t shirt for air flow. Here is the...

I bought some neem and Karanja cake, and it’s in pellet form. I have some Neem meal from somewhere else and it’s much finer. I’m just wondering if I should grind it up at all for mixing into my soil? I know I should grind it finer for topdressing, but just want to be sure. Here is a pic with...

i was doing some weeding in the yard and came across some worms. I’m just wondering if anyone is able to tell which are red wigglers? And if you can help me to distinguish the difference. Thanks, was planning on upgrading my worm bin from a 5 gallons bucket to a 20 gallon tote, could use...
