Time to start another journal... ...This time I picked Nirvana's Indoor feminized mix, and I'm not real happy that all the seeds were mixed together, so now I don't know what's what. Grr...lol Anyway....I germed them about 10 days ago, and they got off to a slow start, because I was sick...

Okay, since these things survived a 10 day drought,(I got sick as hell, and decided to let them die.lol) I'm going to do a mini-test, comparing 6500K against 5000K, for vegging. They are 3 different strains of bagseed, with the 4th being a cross between bagseed male and a Crystal female, which I...

I was thinking about buying a couple of these, http://co2bags.com/aboutus.html but wanted to ask around, first. At $25 each, lasting 6 months, they seem like a pretty good deal, if they actually work. I was thinking about going with twice what they recommend, in hopes of conpensating for the...

Finally, I've decided to find out just how terrible MG soil really is, and am testing it myself. I'm using MG Potting mix, the kind that "Feeds Up To 3 Months", against Fox Farms soil, which if a 50/50 mix of Ocean Forest and Happy Frog. The only thing added to either of them, is perlite,(approx...

Here at RIU, I see alot of guys asking questions about cloning, especially from new growers. So, since I had recently been asked for a detailed explanation of my own cloning technique,(in my journal) which took my 'typing-challenged' ass alot of effort to type out, I wanted to post it again...

Hey guys, this is my first grow journal, and actually, my first grow that has been going great, so I'm quite happy with it. Here's some details..... -5 Nirvana Ice, and 1 Rocklock, from seed. 2 Crystal clones, that I've been cloning since last winter. I love the white strains. :weed: -4...

Hey guys, I have a question, and was wondering if anybody had a good solid answer for this problem I've been having with the strain 'Crystal'....I'm still keeping it around, because it's excellent smoke, but sure have had alot of problems with leaf curling, or "the claw" as some would call...

Okay guys, here's my first attempt at my own grow journal, so let's hope it goes well. So far, so good. I was off to a bit of a slow start, but things have finally taken off. Those pics are from August 7th and 8th, before I started watering heavily. They're healthy, but growing very slow. They...

""It's suggested to flower (12 hour light) this marijuana variety for 8 weeks, but 10 weeks will really give her the crystals you are after. Try to turn the lights off altogether the final 2 weeks of the flowering cycle- or at least down to 8 hours. This keeps the flowers from re-growth and...

I tried this, and it sure as hell didn't work out like I expected it too. The smoke didn't have that nice smooth taste like it was supposed too, nor did the potency go up like it was supposed too. The taste was crappy, the potency was "okay", and it even looked a little weird. It didn't even...

Holy shit, I had a couple drinks last night, was outta weed, and decided to cut a nice bud off my Crystal plant, and dried it in the microwave.(wrong, I know.lol) There were about 75% cloudy trichs, the rest clear. Well, let me just say that the buzz was fucking awesome. :shock: Keep in mind...

I see this term alot, and wanted to know if anybody could tell me what it means? I'm assuming it means it's of the highest quality, but that's just a guess. :)

Well?LOL Seriously though, I was wondering if anybody could give me an idea how much bud it takes to make a gram of decent hash. Not the absolute top of the line stuff, like stuff in the 100 micron range. Also, consider that I would be using Crystal, which has excellent THC content, and loads of...

For comparison reasons, I just took these pics of these clones that have been in soil for 11 days, vegging under this exact 6-bulb T8 light, http://cgi.ebay.com/T-BAY-6-LIGHT-T8-FLUORESCENT-FIXTURE_W0QQitemZ300388228440QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item45f0889d58 with 5000K...

If you are a new guy looking for a 'sure thing' as far as lighting for the vegetative stage, then look no further. This T8 unit performs way better than my 400 watt MH, by a long shot. http://cgi.ebay.com/T-BAY-6-LIGHT-T8...item45f0889d58 I recently switched from the MH because my plants were...

I recently put a bunch of newly rooted clones in FF Ocean Forest soil, with nothing but extra perlite added, and now the stems are all red as hell. Anybody else ever have this happen? I just switched to FF soil, and was wondering if it's a little rich for those little gals? Also, I had them...

....to rehydrate buds that have been overdried, and then cure them like you normally would? There's been a couple times where I've overdried bud to the point of crispiness, then rehydrated and smoked it, but never tried curing after the rehydration. Curing is a form of decompositon that...

Hey people, I'm sure alot of you have had trouble with the accuracy of digital PH meters, so I'm going to fill you in on a little technique I created, that actually make them useable and accurate. Here's what I do.... Before i test my samples, I fill a glass of water and set it beside me. I...

I keep having bleaching on the upper leaves, closest to the light. No heat stress, just bleaching. I bough a light meter a few days ago, and was getting readings up over 8,000 lumens per square foot, and was wondering if that was excessive with any CO2 supplementing? Keep in mind, that I'm still...
