    Hermaphrodites . Help!

    Reverse would be a good solution, though it needed to be applied 7 days into flowering and again 10 days later.. Ride it out and hope for the best; besides taking longer to clean the bud will be fine. Peace, Farmer Rich

    Super Lemon Haze! Anyone?

    Hey Greenice, Good call! I actually just swapped out my lights from 2 x 1K that were fixed to the ceiling in 42" sun soaker reflectors, to 3 x 600W in medium adjust-a-wings. Everything can be lowered now, which should go long way to correcting this problem. I can also get the 600's much...

    Super Lemon Haze! Anyone?

    Hey CEAhaze, I've been growing Super Lemon Haze for a couple of cycles now. I let them grow naturally and don't LST or anything.. with that in mind, here's what I do.. Initially from feminized seed, both plants I started are sativa dominant and get tall! I've heard of some that have...

    Growing with Fluorescents Anybody?

    I use nothing but t-5 panels in my veg room. They work great and for me, the plants grow plenty fast. I also augment my HPS systems with t-5's in flower (red spectrum bulbs), the set-up is 3 x 600w HPS, 2 x 4' x 8 tube t-5 panels. Good luck, Farmer Rich

    12/12 question

    Ludacris is right on... just flip to where they make sense for your schedule. Also running at night can help keep the temps lower, especially if your using ambient air to cool the space.

    budding 4 foot topped kush plant....????Pics!!!

    Actually, if it's happy leave well enough alone on the nutes. The risk outweighs the gain you'll get. More light will give you the most gain on the bud development.. Typically you'll also see a pretty good jump on the size of the flowers on Kush between where you are and 5 weeks..

    budding 4 foot topped kush plant....????Pics!!!

    Sounds way too heavy on the nutes! I mix mine in flowering to about 1300 ppm measured using a TDS (total dissolved solids) meter. The instructions on grow juice (ESU greenleaves) calls for 1 oz per gallon, this was pegging the meter. Now I use about 1/2 oz per gallon.. If you use too much...

    9 days till harvest what do you think?

    You can get a hand held microscope from Radio Shack to allow you look at the trichomes up close and personal. I think they go for about $20, battery powered and made in China.. but they work great.

    how do you make Thai Stick?

    FYI - Thai Stick is nothing but KILLER Thai bud tied to a small piece of bamboo or stem using a fiber of hemp to tie it. I know, I bought 2000 of them in Bangkok in the late 70's for 5 cents a piece! And it was truly killer two hit weed. The sticks were about 6" long and about as thick as...

    hermie seeds?

    Exactly, which is why I'm waiting for the cooler weather to set in... Once fall gets here, my boxes stay 68-75. Still the question for me is, how about clones from a plant from from feminized seeds? How about a clone from one of the plants grown to be a mamma?

    hermie seeds?

    Hey Everyone, I'm struggling with the possibility of hermies after buying feminized seeds in a recent trip to Amsterdam. If I would have been more informed about the possibility of hermies, I would have avoided them.. Oh well, lesson learned. What I bought was feminized: White Widow...

    Some help with DIY odor control please!

    Hey, here's a picture of the filter I built for my curing box.. It consists of a 4" duct fan that pulls air through a nylon stocking filled with activated charcoal and seems to be fairly effective for being cheap. I also vent my grow box through the garage wall and have added a nylon/activated...

    Plants flowering with 24/7 Light?

    Was curious if anyone has ever had plants flower with 24/7 MH lighting? Seems I had one for sure, male; and possibly another.. maybe female. I went ahead and switched to 18/6 HPS, pulled the male from the box and have decided to go 12/12 on Christmas Eve in honor of Santa (beginning of week...
