    Question about revegging and extra strange leaves

    I've been revegging a single hempy bucket for a month now and the new growth has appeared. I know the first new leaves are supposed to come out weird, un-serrated and twisted, but I'm concerned about the mottled coloration and slight browning at the edges on the latest growth. Should I just be...

    Hempy buckets: pH according to runoff, or don't bother?

    I'm almost done with my first grow, and as you can guess it's a hempy. However, it's about 4 weeks into 12/12 and I'm not impressed with the bud size (it's C99, 7-8 weeks flowering). I'm running straight perlite, and since day one I've been checking the runoff pH and adjusting my feed to try to...

    SUDDEN pH change after flip

    Hi all, I'm growing in a hempy bucket and all during veg I would have to adjust the feeding solution down by 1.0 pH (4.8 pH solution) to get the proper run-off pH (5.8 run-off). After I flipped to 12/12 a few days ago I noticed my pH was suddenly 4.0 in the run-off. What gives? I'm assuming it...

    Nute burn? Mites?

    I'm 8 weeks into growing my first successful plant (C99) from seed and noticed that some of the leaves don't look so good. A couple weeks back I upped my nutes a little too much (Dyna Gro 1/2 strength) and noticed some slight burning around the tips and a few leaf edges. I backed the nutes off...

    Has my plant started flowering already??

    Hi, first time grower here. I've got a single Female Seeds C99 in a small cab, hempy style. It's six weeks since sprouting and the plant is only 6.5" tall. Today I noticed pistils on several of the nodes, but I've it's only been on an 18/6 schedule. Is the plant auto-flowering on me? Should I...

    Small cab grow / so far, so good / what to do now?

    Hi all, I'm growing a single Female Seeds C99 from seed in a pretty small cab (1'5" x 1'5" x 4'3"), hempy bucket method. It's five weeks since sprout and it seems like it's gonna be a short, bushy little girl. I'm worried about light penetration issues and wondering how to maximize the yield...

    Will a raised pH make leaves light green?

    Hi all, I'm growing a Female Seeds C99 in a dixie cup sized hempy and it's been 8 days since sprouting. I've been adjusting tap water to around 5.8 pH and have been watering several times a day until the roots hit the rez. The plant has a dull light green colored look to it: The camera is...

    4 tries in one year, what's the problem?

    I’ve been trying unsuccessfully for a year now to grow from seeds and I’m getting so discouraged. I live in a country where I don’t speak the language and access to “standard” growing supplies (like I can’t find pH up/down here anywhere) is limited, or needs to be shipped in at high cost. Here’s...

    Confused about where to buy Blackstar

    I've heard good things about Blackstar lights in this forum, but I've found two different sites to buy them from. What's the deal? http://www.lighthousehydro.com/ http://www.blackstarled.com/

    Fan with 92/106 CFM too strong for carbon scrubber?

    I've got a small 18" x 18" x 4' 6" cab in my bedroom that I've started my first grow in. I have a 4" fan for circulation that's rated at 92/106 CFM and I'm going to build a carbon scrubber soon to go into the cab. Do you think this fan will be sucking air too quickly through the carbon for it to...

    Is this an actual strain?

    I recently bought some seeds from a guy who was quitting up his cab grow because he was moving overseas. He said the strain was NL x Mr. Nice. I googled it but couldn't find anything. Is this really a strain?

    Super droop. Just sleeping?

    I started these four plants from seed. I was growing them in peat and I think I didn't have enough perlite for aeration and wound up overwatering a few weeks ago. I saved them by repotting into bigger pots, which helped disperse the water I think. But they definitely suffered, especially the...

    seedlings burning and pre-fertilized soil is all I have

    So I just started my first grow. 10 germinated seedlings into plastic cups, all burned up after a month, apparently pre-fertilized soil was the culprit. Now, I live in a place where I don't have access to any kind of standard grower's stuff, save huge shipping costs, and the soil that's here...

    4.5 weeks from sprout, 2" growth, now dead. Help!

    Hello fellow tokers, this is my first small cab grow op and I'm having some major problems. I could really use some help as I'm pretty confused and discouraged by my first attempt. After germinating 10 seeds and planting them, over the next 4.5 weeks the seedlings never grew past 1.5" or 2"...

    Am I an lighting dumbass?

    My 90W UFO just arrived and when I turned it on I noticed 16 out of the 90 1W diodes weren't lighting up. The strange thing was that there appeared to be a pattern of sorts to the unlit ones. I contacted the company and they replied that they used 16 infrared lights in their configuration. This...
