    Soil too dry

    My grow room is a metre square with 1x 400w hps light. The temperature is mid 30s. The soil dries out very quickly and turns to dust within a day. Is there anything I could do to stop this or do I just have to water more frequently?

    No Trichs

    I've been growing Top44 for some years now and always get decent results. I know this is an indica. The last lot of seeds came with 5 free seeds of unknown variety so the last time I planted my T44 I also put one of these seeds in to grow. It went wild and I've had to bend it to stop it hitting...

    I have 5 plants at 8 weeks flower. 4 are indica and are almost ready - the trichomes are nearly all milky. The other one is sativa and although it is well into flower there seems to be very few trichomes compared to the indica. Is this normal and will the trichs develope?

    Split harvest

    I have 4 T44 plants which are almost ready for harvest. The problem I have is that the top buds are ready - most of the trichomes are milky - but the buds underneath are nowhere near. Can I take the top buds and continue to grow the bottom ones or should I wait til they are all ready? Helpppp!!!

    Overwatering

    What are the effects of overwatering. My plants are turning yellow and droopy. I bought a moisture meter and found the soil to be off the scale. Would this cause the problem?

    What watt?

    I have 10 seeds growing in a 1 meter square box. I have a choice between a 200w hps or a 400w hps. I'm thinking that 400 may be too much to start with? Should I start with the 200 and swap to 400 when plants have grown a little?

    I'm curing in zip top plastic food bags. I keep it in a cool dark place and open it up to let the air circulate 2 or 3 times a day. Is this ok or will the bags create mold??

    Drying?

    I've just harvested my plants - the trichomes were almost all milky. I quickly dried a little in the oven and the high was disappointing. Will drying properly increase the potency??

    Drying?

    I've just harvested my first grow and have begun to dry it. I was a little disappointed with the high from a bit that I dried quickly and was wondering how drying and curing affects the potency. Will it get stronger??
