Help!!! My small grow has become infested (apparently overnight) by a small, brownish-greyish, grasshopper looking creature. They have consumed several leaves of my 14 day old plants. I have seen recipes for homemade insecticide using a diluted version of dish soap. 1 to 2 percent per...

What do i have? I was digging around a new seedling and found a small, white, flea-like creature in the soil. What kind of mite and will it affect my more advanced seedlings two weeks older. I removed the infested one. I'm using brand new soil fresh out of the bag. WTF! My room is clean...

Remember, all three of these plants were started at the same time.

I need help. My wife has been telling me that for years but this time I really mean it. My first grow with AK48. I've no experience with this strain so I thought I'd take it easy and start with three plants. After two weeks I'm ready to throw in the towel. Two of the plants look the worse...

I sure didn't buy auto flower from Nirvana. I just bought the regular mix bag of 10 male/female seeds. Next time I'm going with feminized. Fuck the guessing game or leaving it up to Mother Nature. I know that there are things that I can do to better my chances of producing females but I'm...

I currently have three AK48 that are nine days in soil. One looks great and the other two are much 'weaker' looking. Thanks for the kick in the balls mother nature. I'm worried I may only end up with one plant. I all ready know that I should have planned better. Another lesson learned. I...

Appreciate the info. I did not know that Ruderalis was part of the mix. I saw no mention of that in my download AK48 grow guide which upon rereading is a pretty basic guide to begin with. Better info available through my friends at rollitup. Again thanks. I have a big heart so I'll treat my...

I just started my second grow. Cracked three AK-48 seeds and stuck them in the ground same day, same soil and under the same environmental conditions. PH 6.5, 20/4 lighting under 400w MH in addition to 3 200w CFLs with reflectors, three sides of my 'open style' grow box are mylar and the...

Thanks doc111. I'm going to toss the old and bring in the new. The old jugs will go into the recycle bin. I agree with you 100%. Cleanliness and my grow journal are my number one priorities.

Hey I've been using the same gallon water jugs for about four months now. I usually fill a couple with tap water and then balance my ph to 6.5 and measure the tds of my tap water around 246 ( I don't know if that is good or bad or what to do about it). I noticed a light green algae growing...

Someone Please! Tell me there is some method to getting the baked on film off. I am banging my head against the wall. I just got back from some traveling and jet lag and I know now was still stupid. The outer parts of the film peel off easily but it's the baked on center with a nice burn...

I am an idiot. Thanks to all for helping the disabled. At not one time did it occur to me to peel the 'protective' plastic covering off of my product. I am humbled.

Hello everyone. I've just completed my first (trial) grow and am setting up for my second. I started my first grow and went all the way through with 400 watt HPS. Started with two seedlings grown from unknown strain. Pulled the boy at four days into flower and grew the female for eight...

Thanks hoss12781. I grow for personal consumption a few (1-3) at a time. 90 days at one oz per is attractive. I like the head sativa high though and would be concerned that I might miss or lose some of that.

I use two black bedsheets stapled over my door. The double layer insures that no light gets through.
