    Buds are not growing

    with all that LST, defoliating & bugs- I think I'd be stressed too! She's probably hermied due to the stress, also, she'll put her energy into creating seeds & not buds, so expect much lower yields. When you pull the balls, spray with water too to stop the pollen spreading. Key is to have...

    Buds are not growing

    Biobizz feed schedule recommends stopping using fish-mix during flowering & switch to bio grow instead, I would suggest it's too strong. Have you tried giving her a good flush with clean / PH'd water? try easing off on the nutes a little & certainly lay off the fish mix

    Have I got a hermie?

    6 weeks flowering & it looks like my buds have simply stopped growing, started to see seeds developing. Tried to pluck & spray as much as I can. Looks like it going to be a shitty harvest

    TDS PPM meter, what to do with results

    Great suggestion, thanks, I found it too http://twmediadevcdn.azureedge.net/waterquality/WQ%20Report_Z0363_Crouch%20End%20&%20Gospel%20Oak.pdf Found this quite amusing from the report "Levels of Magnesium are included mainly for the benefit of beer brewers. At levels of 10-30mg/l" also quite...

    TDS PPM meter, what to do with results

    thanks for the info, really helps. I'm in week 5 flowering. Everything looks OK ish, I always end up with yellowing leaves around the 2nd - 3rd week of flowering, not a big issue as I get good results, but trying for perfection! I use Biobizz nutrients & soil, usually use a little less than...

    TDS PPM meter, what to do with results

    thanks, but I was asking about TDS PPM (total dissolved solids - parts per million) & not PH. Already got my PH in a good place :D

    TDS PPM meter, what to do with results

    Hi, Just bought a TDS PPM meter to test my water, but not sure what to do with the results? If I have a high PPM reading, do I just cut back on nutrients until it's within an acceptable range? What is the correct range for watering my girls? Do I test the run-off too? thanks

    Some self isolation bud porn

    those CMH bulbs look like they've done a great job. Was considering replacing my HPS with one, but have heat issues so went with a quantum board LED.

    Have I got a hermie?

    On the bright side, I just bought a Spider Farmer SF 1000 LED light so I can grow in the summer & got a free Gorilla Glue seed with my last order. Guess I'll be growing again sooner than I thought!

    Have I got a hermie?

    thanks for the replies. She's not ready to chop yet, only 4 weeks into flowering. really gutted, I only grow 1 plant a year & I'm almost out of supplies. Have to see this through and try to minimise the damage. Really not interested in harvesting seeds, I have space for 1 plant & not hanging...

    Have I got a hermie?

    Hi, Just spotted something odd on a couple of my lower branches, have a horrible feeling they are male flowers, there's also some strange white powder on some of the lower leaves. Please have a look. thanks

    Testing THC & CBD content - UK

    issue of course being the cost & effort. pretty much get a good idea of THC & CBD content when I smoke it, prefer the higher CBD strains personally. Currently growing CBD Jam, supposed to have around 7% THC & 10% CBD with a 50/50 mix of Indica & Sativa but would love to know with a proper lab test.

    Testing THC & CBD content - UK

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone had their home grown cannabis tested in the UK for CDB & THC levels, was curious to get my current grow tested when it's done. thanks

    which lights to use??

    that's my plan, will only use 1 in my 60cm x 60cm x140cm grow tent + my HPS but which one? One is more pink colour, looks like it only has blue & red light (if the Amazon advert is to be believed) The new one (2 of them!) have little blue, some green, yellow & red light Not bothered about...

    which lights to use??

    I used the pink light initially, around 9" from the plant. It grew so skinny that it eventually fell over! never had this issue before & I've grown a lot in the last 15yrs! Haven't tried the new ones that arrived today. Switching to my 250W CFL has stopped the plant stretching. Happy to use them...

    which lights to use??

    Hi, weird situation... I bought this LED light off Amazon for my seedling - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07F24HFDF my new baby CBD Jam grew tall & skinny after about a week under it, so I left a slightly negative review stating it wasn't good for seedlings. I was then contacting by the...

    Yeah, I had pretty low bud density due to using a CFL. I bought a dimmable digital ballast now, so will be able to dial down to 250W & right up to 660W giving me more control over the temps hopefully. Doesn't help I was growing in the hottest summer in years either! I got to say, the smoke is...
