I've always been worried about buds and branches actually laying on each other, light penetration, air flow, but maybe I'm over thinking? Does this seem to crowded for a 4x4? It's the largest I've gone, and I feel like I should be thinning out the tops and leaving the big ones to have more...

I have a plant going in FFOF with a cup of dolomite in a 7gal. I seem to be on the edge of burning it. I've been adding very sparingly FFOF grow big, and mostly just plain water. If I add too much food, it seems to get worse, if I take it easy (week with plain water) it looks good again, but...

I'm taking a less is more approach this time as I've decided if I can't dial in the bare-ass minimum effort to get results I am happy with while keeping it fun and relaxing, I might have to pick a new hobby, plus I have had trouble getting advice when I add too much to the soil. I am having...

Good day! I'm about 3 or 4 weeks into flower from flip, and already removed an obvious male. I have 4 plants left with obvious female buds starting. I was looking through them and found this. I suspect it's a male flower, but as I've only ever seen nanners late in flower, im doubting myself...

Hey All! Long time! Last post I was showing off my 4x4 and it was strongly suggested I fucked up and went way overboard pruning, etc. I still got about 12oz so wasn't crying, but always want to be improving. This time I'm 14 days in to flower and I've cleaned up underneath, but have mostly...

Hey all, Man it's been a while since I last posted. I'm prepping for a bigger journal update, but for now I am needing some canopy feedback. I got these 4 ladies ready and flipped them 2 days ago. I've never worked with such an even full canopy before. Am I looking good, or are there too many...

I have a space heater, it is isn't the typical type where a resistor gets hot and you see it glowing, instead it is a black panel that just seems to radiate with no human visible indication it is hot. Not sure that matters for my question. Should I be concerned with the invisible spectrum this...

When I recently started trying to put together a usable nutrient rich "soil" I realized that I don't know what soil is. I want to clear up my fundamental understanding on this so I can become more informed. I feel like I've got something basic completely wrong. If peat is peat, and coco is...

Hey All, I'm having trouble finding something in-stock that seems appropriately priced. It might just be that I am not sure how much one dunk will treat. Is this a good price ($44.95 CDN for a 20 pack)...

Hi All! I have clones and a couple seedlings that are rooted and taking off in a plain coco/perlite mix that will need to be transplanted right away as they are looking hungry. I am fund limited, and in isolation until December 1st assuming everyone in my family goes symptom free, otherwise it...

Hi All, I do not know a lot about electronics, just enough to tinker with Raspberry Pi's and Arduino's and make the odd circuit work. I'm very interested in trying to control the dimming feature on the HLG-480-C2100B driver I have and see that it takes a PWM signal. I found this written on an...

I like to tinker, and was thinking it might be fun to play with the dimming on my new lamp. I know what I'm about to write could (should?) be classified as bro-science, but speaking in generalities, everything typically does better with a warm up before pushing to full potential, could that...

Just waiting on my last 2 plants to finish up under the 600 watt hps and the it's time to re jig the room. Very excited to try out LED and see if it helps my situation!

I have an 8x8 room with negative pressure and passive intake. I only used 4x8 of it to flower under 2 x 600watt lamps, and the other half was walk-in work space. I had some heat issues, and don't really need to flower out an entire 4x8 space every few months for my needs, so I'm scaling back...

Hi There, First journal, not sure I need a discussion thread but made one here: https://www.rollitup.org/t/my-unintentionally-difficult-return-to-growing-the-journal-discussion.1035039/ I was a member of overgrow.com back at what seems to my memory like the late 90's early 00's. I had all the...

Tonight I give my paranoid old school self a rest and have decided to over-share. I'm starting a journal as I have learned that what I know isn't much, research isn't everything, and my lack of experience has been humbling. I'm creating this now and will link to it from my journal as a place...

So at first I was embarrassed. I must have done something wrong. It's Lemon Thai Kush by Humboldt Seeds which I received as clones and the mother definitely didn't flower out like these. According to the site, and as a reference point, it should have been done around week 10, the mother...

Just bought a BudgetLED Series 3+ full spec and ordered it with the optional conformal coating. I can still cancel the coating process. The manufacturer says this: "The coating impacts about 5% and increases the level of the blue spectrum. The rest of the spectrum stays relatively stable. We...

Hi All, I'm having a bit of trouble with managing heat in my room and have no more cooling capacity, so I think scaling back and switching to LED will give me (and my plants) room to breathe. I'm going to be decommissioning two 600 watt switchable MH/HPS lamps over a 4'x8' area in favor of...

I had a plant with PM I took down last week in week 14. I tried do a h2O2 wash and it ended up molding on me. Trashed all 180 grams of my best plant. I have 2 plants left in the room mid week 15 now. Been keeping temps at 22 to 24c and RH around 40. I should say in the beginning my amateur...
