Temps are holding steady, its mother nature herself wants to see this grow through to the end. shouldnt be more than a week or two at this point before harvest. very few amber trichs, some of the girls have none. the canadian cheese has the highest percentage of cloudy trichs. surprisingly the...

I ran the number while i was building my light. we have a range of prices where i live, its .09 cents a kw in the off peak hours which run from 7pm to 7am and then its .13 cents a kw from 7am to 11am and 5pm to 7pm then from 11am until 5pm its .18 cents a kw Altogether i run about 115 watts, i...

Unfortunately i cant heat the space at all. I have to work within the limitations im given because i still live with my parents. im lucky enough they let me grow as it is lol. As far as infestation goes, ive seen people get hit by root aphids pretty badly doing a perlite grow as well. you...

Im definitely considering it. I dont think ill be able to fit as many plants into my room, but if they grow bigger in perlite then it probably won't matter. One thing im also concerned about is rootzone temps. it's fairly cold outside, sometimes the temps in my growbox are getting down to 4...

Hey man, no apologies necessary. people get uptight about growing sometimes and im definitely guilty of that from time to time, but we all gotta start somewhere. I prefer having some activity and some back and forth going on in my thread here. Part of the reason why i let myself ramble and...

Theres no way of identifying strain from a pictures. there are thousands of different strain names these days, theyre essentially meaningless unless youre buying your seeds from a seedbank. even when youre buying from a seedbank the strain name really only serves in relation to that particular...

The forecast is calling for warm weather these next two weeks. I think im gonna luck out. I wonder how much theyre going to swell with how stunted their growth is. at least the cold has pretty much taken care of my insect problem.

Yeah 80 degree range sounds about right. it depends on whether youre supplementing co2 or not. different strains will respond differently to certain temperature ranges. i dont know the specifics for optimal growth using different types of lighting. from what i remember 70-80 degrees is a good...

the big colas werent even snapped off. The buds were pulled or bitten off at the stalk. There was no consistency. Some plants were taken completely regardless of popcorn and others had patches left behind. If it was people who took them it was their first time ripping for sure. They took more of...

Havent updated for at little bit, at least i think i havent. Had a shit day preparing to harvest my outdoor. Went and checked them in the morning to see if they were ready. Got hit with some frost and I was getting kind of anxious about the weather holding up and they were close enough that i...

Well see thats the thing, ive been using a mix of neem oil, rosemary oil and peppermint soap since the beginning of this grow. There havent been any flying pests save for the couple gnats i saw a month ago. Everything else on my sticky traps is not a threat and ive been meticulous about...

will update with pics soon, just gonna do a quick update on the infestation. I've been poring over as much information on various pests as I can and Im starting to think I need to do further investigation into what is really happening in my grow. every single mite i've collected and observed...

I took those pics right after spraying the soil down with iso so its not the best representation of how the soil is. The top two inches are mostly dry but its very moist beyone that. I actually had a mushroom pop up from down between the edge of the soil and the wall of the pot. The iso...

Getting into the colder october weather and im thinking now will be a good time to switch my intake and start conserving some of that hot air. Temps are staying around 20 degrees right now. It takes forever for the soil to dry out, way longer than ive ever experienced before. So far its been...

Thats essentially how i do my curing only i do jars and boveda packs since i dont grow enough to fill a cupboard. I usually set up a cardboard box and a small pc fan to move some air through it in the shed. That works real well to dry them when its colder outside. We rarely get humid days in...

Ahhh ok i think i get exactly what you mean now. This concussion is rough, it takes me at least 3x as long to understand things as it used to. The white castle i grew out when i was running a 150w hps was some of the tastiest smoke ive ever had. I lost all my pictures from that grow when one...

I dont understand at all what you mean by "the best taste is no taste" Im talking about the flavour of the smoke, not whether or not you can taste residual nutrients or anything like that. Are you suggesting that what you grow doesnt have any flavour at all? That sounds awful to me. I cant...

I do have one question for you, how do you find the taste differs from soil to perlite to dwc? Is there a noticeable difference? Ive never really branched out from soil much because the general idea i got from reading forum posts was that most people thought soil tasted better. Im getting to a...

Thanks for the advice. I think you are right. When i started i was watering much closer to how i would be if i was growing with an hps light and ive been gradually watering them less and less. Now that its getting colder out im noticing the soil is taking much longer to dry out. Ive also been...

I think i might be winning the war against these mites. Ive been continuing to hit the soil with the dr bronners mix and then i spray it down with iso. Just enough to cover the surface and i shield the plants the whole time. If i had to guess, at its worse there had to have been around 3 mites...
