Hello friends! I've been taking a break from the cultivating scene for the last 6 months or so, but am happy to announce a brief return with my Winter Organic Garden. I love growing during the winter, as it brings out just the most beautiful colors and produces the best buds of any growing...

Hello and welcome to the garden. I've been growing for a couple years now, thanks in no small part to this site. After a rather prolonged absence I've decided to start a new thread in hopes that it prompts me to update more frequently. I hope it works. A bit about my setup: I have 2...

So this video came out a little while back, but I watched it again today and thought it is worth posting. http://www.growersunderground.com/blog/hydroponics-articles/the-great-phosphorus-myth-exposed Now, I do not use Advance Nutrients products...I grow organically and am quite happy with...

So I went to pick up my 4th bag of Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil the other day. Seemed the same as the other 3 bags I've purchased...until I started using it. The first thing I noticed was the smell. It is WAY more pungent than normal...almost like a strong bark smell. I thought 'probably not...

Selection: Over 1000 strains from 50+ breeders. 10/10 Price: You get what you pay for. Good seeds cost $$$$. Pick-n-mix is helpful with this. 9/10. Service: Customer service is very helpful over the telephone. Seeds arrived in ~10 days. Online tracking is helpful, but known to "stall"...

I decided to start this thread in an attempt to help members of RIU become better, MORE COMPETENT automobile operators. Every time I get behind I feel I am risking my life due to the complete incompetence of those driving around and next to me. I am never quite sure who is responsible for...

Has anyone looked at their seeds on Attitude. If you have, you've seen the price... Can anyone justify paying $800 for a 10 pack of seeds? Attitude doesn't even rate their strains higher than a 3 (not that attitudes ranking system is the be-all, end-all but still)...

While perusing my local hydro store last week I picked up a pamphlet from Fox Farm listing their entire lineup of nutrients/soils. While flipping through I came to a page titled "Do your plants know the difference between organic and inorganic fertilizers" and thought I would share it with the...

Hello and welcome to my second grow journal. I began my first grow (using bagseed) in February of this year...that harvest is finishing up the cure right now. I think I did pretty well for my first go round. A link can be found here. Armed with the knowledge I gained from this experience, I...

In regards to server space, is there a preferred method of uploading pictures? For example, uploading images to photobucket and directly linking them vs. uploading through RIU. I like to use photobucket and link them, but if I were ever to delete my photobucket account my threads would be...

What happened to the last song title game thread? All of a sudden I lost 200+ posts and the rep I received from the thread says n/a! Did the thread get deleted? Who would do such a thing? Well, hopefully the original thread returns from wherever it went. Until then, let's just start a new...

So I am just about ready for my first harvest, 3 bagseed girls 70 days into flowering today--400w hps in Ocean Forest w/ FF Nutes. Temp is around ~84 during the day and a few degrees cooler at night. RH is ~40% during day, 55-68% with the lights off (I use a portable a/c during the light cycle...

Anyone in the RIU community planning on attending this festival? Here's a link to the lineup... http://2009.lollapalooza.com/ I went in 2005 and 2008, so this will be my third trip, and I'm pumped for this years lineup--TV on the Radio, Kings of Leon, Band of Horses, Vampire Weekend, Tool...

So I've been looking into various dehumidifying options to lower my humidity from ~65% to something closer to 40% (or even a little less). I found a $25 dollar one on craigslist yesterday, but it gets WAY too hot. I've been looking into new mini-dehumidifiers that don't use condensers and...

Hello Again RIU Community! Once again I beseech you for some assistance... I just acquired a 400w MH ballast, fixture and bulb for $30--great deal, I was stoked. Unfortunately, I thought it was an HPS when I went to pick it up--when I learned it wasn't, I offered $30 to take it anyway...

Hello and thanks for coming by. I believe my plant has developed a potassium (and possibly nitrogen) lockout due to pH imbalance (too high, I think). Let's start with a brief background. I'm 32 days into flowering, and she is looking good. About 5 days ago, I began to develop some "clawing"...

Just ordered my first seeds from attitude --got the Barney's farm feminized blue cheese and Lowryder#2 x AK47 feminized autoflowering. Also includes: 5 free G13 Thai Super Skunk, 1 feminized pure power plant, 1 feminized skunk #1. Anyone have experience with these strains? They look and sound...

You read that right...North Carolina is in the process of voting on House Bill 1380, known as the Medical Marijuana Act! Below is a link to a copy of the bill. http://www.ncga.state.nc.us/Sessions/2009/Bills/House/HTML/H1380v0.html This next link is for the North Carolina General Assembly...

So my girls are 20 days into flower, and have some nice looking bud development. However, I think I can see little seeds forming within the main top bud of one of them! I found two balls growing on the lower stems about a week ago. I removed them and haven't seen another since. If I am...

So I bought a small container of live catnip for my cat. I want to keep it alive, but the last one I left outside became a haven for ants! So, can I stick it in my grow room? My only concern would be the catnip having some unforeseen adverse effect on the marijuana... Any info is helpful...
