    Trifoliate male for breeding?

    I've just flipped to flower and was planning on doing another pollen chuck. This time I planned on pollinating a Pakistan Valley female from World of Seeds with a Shit male from Mr. Nice. The hope was to have a somewhat fast flowering indica for outdoor here in BC. Unfortunately, I only ended...

    Pollen collecting question

    I've got a beautiful Afghani male that I intend to use for making seed. My plan was to pollinate one of the three Critical Jack Herers I have going at the moment, but all three of them have turned out to be some of the ugliest, most pathetic pieces of shit I've ever had the displeasure of...

    Mr. Nice

    Anyone know what's going on with the Mr. Nice website? It seems to not exist anymore for whatever reason. I've been looking at their website for years and never had an issue until just the other day I bid on and won some auctions, sent my payment, and now no more Mr. Nice. No replies from...

    Help me decide

    I did some pollen chucking a while back and had pretty good success. I pollinated a Purple Kush from Crop King with a Medicine Man from Mr. Nice, and I got myself a shit load of beautiful seeds. I've grown some, I've given some to friends, and I still have lots. Unfortunately, doing this made me...

    Advanced Nutrients pH Perfect with Pro-Mix

    I use Pro-Mix HP. I'm thinking about switching to Advanced Nutrients Sensi Grow & Bloom, but am unsure about its compatibility with Pro-Mix. From what I've read on the website, they claim that it keeps your pH around 5.5, which, as far as I know, is good for hydro but low for Pro-Mix. I could be...

    Avocado Plant

    I sprouted this avocado seed and it's growing into a decent little plant, except for the fact that it's only growing leaves on the top and the rest is tall and bare. I need to repot this thing but am wondering about burying some of the stem to make it less lanky. I know that cannabis will grow...

    Opinions please - Ready or not?

    This is my first 'is it ready' post. I wasn't going to ask, but I've started second guessing myself. This weekend will be 10 weeks that these have been flowering. I was planning on chopping this weekend, but I don't want to make the mistake of doing it too early. Trichomes are mostly cloudy, but...

    Radiant heat and ambient temperature

    Hi guys. So I just popped some new beans and I've got a question about temperature. I've got these babies in a closet under a 4 foot 4 bulb T5. It's definitely a bit warmer than I want it to be, but I'm thinking (hoping) it's not too excessive. My question is this. How much radiant heat...

    Is this powdery mildew or just frosty weed?

    The title pretty much says it all. I think these are probably about two weeks or so from being done, but I'm not sure if this white stuff is PM or just crystal. I've had PM problems throughout the grow, but it's mostly been on the big fan leaves. This is only showing up on the little sugar...

    Yield Thread

    It seems like there are always people on here posting threads to ask how much their plants will yield. This got me thinking, wouldn't it be nice if there was a thread where people could post pictures of their own plants which have yielded 1oz, 2oz, 3oz, etc. This could be used as a reference for...

    Will these put on much weight?

    Hi everyone. This is my first actual indoor attempt. Since I've never gone full-term with an indoor grow, I'm not quite sure if I can expect these to pack on much more weight. So here I am, asking for your opinions. These have been flowering for about 6.5 weeks, with my flowering day count...

    Powdery Mildew - should I chop early?

    Got these two clones when I thought I had killed my seedlings. The seedlings ended up living, and now they're thriving. Both seedlings and clones are around five weeks in flower, but I've been battling powdery mildew with these clones right from the start. I took them out of my tent because I...

    Breeding Question

    I asked this question in the breeders forum, but that place is dead. I figured there's a better chance of getting an answer here. The following is a copy/paste of my question from the breeders forum. I'm a little confused about F1, F2, etc. If I understand correctly - and please correct me if...

    Is this the start of seeds?

    This is my very first indoor grow, and only my second grow ever. First attempt was outdoor and I lost the majority of it to mold. Moving on. I've got these three Purple Kush that have all been flowering for about three and a half weeks. They had a rough start as sprouts (I almost killed them)...

    Pollen Chucking

    I'm just curious why there is so much hate for people who try to make their own seeds at home. I've read so many things about it, and the one thing that almost all of these threads have in common is the people who chime in to bash pollen chuckers like their home experimenting is going to cause...

    Newbie pollination question

    So I was wondering about pollination methods. It seems to me that most people collect pollen and do their pollinating that way. I'm sure that works fine, but wouldn't it be much simpler to just hold a flowering male over the female you intend to pollinate (obviously in a separate, secluded room)...

    First time indoor. Need advice.

    So as the title says, this is my first try at indoor. These girls had a very rough start to life. They were close to death as seedlings and I was almost ready to garbage them, but they seem to be feeling better. So despite my (many) mistakes, and all the extra time it took to get them healthy...

    Mr. Nice Medicine Man vs. Nirvana White Rhino

    Hi everyone. I'm hoping to get some opinions about these strains. I remember smoking the original White Rhino many years ago, and I've been wishing I could find more ever since. I've never found it again, so I think I'm going to need to grow some. I've been looking at seed banks and doing a...

    Seedling Question

    I'm attempting my second grow. My first try was outdoor and it went fairly well until the cold and rain came, and then I ended up losing a lot of it to mold. So now I'm trying my hand at indoor. I wanted to do this without having to ask for help, but here we are. I started three Purple Kush...

    Is this safe?

    I'm hoping someone with some electrical knowledge might be able to tell me if one of these would be safe to use with a 600w digital ballast. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Woods-Digital-Outdoor-Block-Heater-Timer-with-Daily-Settings-3-Conductor-Black-50016/203638982 I don't know what the...
