    Please tell me I'm being paranoid.....

    I see these slightly odd looking little things on the top cola of one of my Sativas. She's 9 and a half weeks into 12/12. Is it possible that these are pollen sacs? They're only directly on the bud, not on or near any calyx's. I circled one in this pic.... please tell me I'm paranoid!

    pH Question

    I have a quick question about water pH when growing in soil (indoors). I just started week 3 of flowering. I watered today with a flowering nutes solution, which before I watered measured at a pH of 6.1. After watering, I then collected the run-off and measured it at exactly 6.1. So my...

    BioBizz Bio-Bloom Grow Schedule

    I recently picked up a bottle of Bio-Bloom (NPK = 2-6-3.5) to use for my plants' flowering cycle. The instructions that came with the bottle say to use between 2-5 ml per liter of water. Sounds easy enough, except that 2-5 ml is kind of a large range, so I found a grow schedule for use with...

    Sexing - Male? (Pics)

    I've got 6 plants just moved into flowering, and I'm starting to see pre-flowers on several of them. One of them so far seems to be a Male, though I'm not 100% sure. What do you think?

    Raising the pH of my water/feed solution with dolomite lime?

    I'm growing my plants indoors in soil. In the part of Europe where I live, I'm having a tough time finding "pH up" to add to my feed water. I'm looking for alternatives, other than baking soda (I read that baking soda is very bad for the plants). I've seen that some people use dolomite lime...

    Help with Flowering Nutes Please!

    I'm working on my 2nd grow right now, and based on some things that went wrong during my 1st grow I'm trying to prevent nutrition issues this time around. My grow is indoors, in soil. So far everything is going great, and I will be switching the lights/schedule to flowering cycle in 1 week. I...

    To Flush or Not to Flush?

    I'm currently about 1 week away from switching my plants to a flowering schedule, and am debating whether or not I need to flush them before starting the flowering nutes. I have not used any nutes at all during veg, mainly because my soil had a good mix and I'm only keeping them in veg for 6...

    2nd Grow - Brown leaf tips... only 2 weeks in

    I just started my 2nd grow 2 weeks ago (indoor, in soil), and am noticing a problem. I have 6 plants, and all but 1 of them have brown tips on the leafs. I'm using water with a pH of 6.8 run through a Brita filter (pH measured after filtration), and soil with a range of 5.5-7 pH. Lights are...

    Digital pH meters - Recommendations?

    Does anyone have a recommendation for an easy to use digital pH meter I can get online? I'll use it to measure the pH of runoff from soil, as well as to test the water I use before I feed. Thanks much!

    My 1st Grow - Crystal Pics

    I'm coming towards the end of flowering (I hope!) of my first grow. I wanted to get some opinions on how the crystals look, and how many days/weeks away from 25-50% amber I am. Any ideas?

    1st Grow - Bud Pics - Ready?

    This is my first grow, and I'm not sure if it's close to ready or not. The plant is a sativa, from bag seed. She's been in flowering for about 10-11 weeks. Any thoughts on how much longer to let her stay before harvest?

    Thought my problem was fixed - looks like it's not - please help! (pics)

    Last weekend I posted about a problem, which seemed like was caused by nute burn. On Monday, I flushed my plant with water 3X the size of the container. Until yesterday/today, everything seemed fine (no new problems with any leaves). The new problem is in the pics in this post, and is on...

    Thanks in advance for taking a look at this. I'm a first time grower. I have a plant that is starting to show signs of some kind of deficiency, and I need some help identifying the problem. There are currently 2 leaves that look like the most severe picture ( the one on the left). These...

    Please Help Identify The Problem (pics)

    First, the plants are generally healthy. They are growing rapidly still, in week 3 of flowering. Pics below are from leaves towards the bottom, except the one showing the leaves curling under themselves (that one is from mid-plant). There are different things going here... but could this all be...
