    I've got my nuken sitting at 5 weeks veg right now, and I want to flip it asap. But I'm having trouble cloning.. This is my first DWC grow, I usually use dirt and this has never been an issue..

    Does anyone else do this?

    I'm just wondering.. I saw my buddy throw his left over cloning gel and it got me to thinking.. I always pour a little gen into a shot glass and dip the cuttings in there.. So I don't activate or contaminate the entire bottle of gel.. I'm going strictly DWC now, but even before I did, I did...

    Attack of the killer bush.

    OK, well it looks like nuken just wants to be a bush.. It's 3 weeks and 4 days from seed and I can't get it to calm down! I've moved the light back, and it is growing taller, but it's still growing bushy.. I'm thinking of flipping it to 12/12 soon, just cause I'm thinking I'm running out of...

    Tree or bush? you decide.

    Hey guys, I've got my first DWC grow happening now, I'm 3 weeks in and I must say I wasn't expecting this much growth so fast. Usually I do dirt, and it doesn't grow this quick.. As you can see in the pictures, they are short and bushy. I've been keeping the light nice and close 10 - 12 inches...

    (This account was written in 1969 for publication in Marijuana Reconsidered (1971). Sagan was in his mid-thirties at that time. He continued to use cannabis for the rest of his life.) …Initially I was unwilling to partake, but the apparent euphoria that cannabis produced and the fact that...

    The Greatest Man Who Ever Walked On The Face Of The Earth.

    15 years ago to the day. My greatest hero died. A man who taught me everything I needed to know about science. A man who's singly responsible for my life as it exists. A man whom I owe my career, my loyalty and my unbound admiration. When I was a little boy I was restless, I was always on the...

    Lines in your pictures? Here's how to stop em..

    The Problem: I recently had someone PM me as ask me about the lines some people get in photos they take of plants. The lines are caused by HID lights.. I'm not sure why, but I think it may have something to do with the actual light coming from the bulb. Most of you are saying "Duh" But I've...

    Why Do People Laugh At Creationists?

    There seems to be a meme going around that there is proof and evidence of ID (intelligent design) or a creator. Usually if you can get them to admit it, it happens to be the god they believe in. The god in question almost always ends up being the christian god, and depending on who you talk to...
