So I've had issues with Botrytis (bud rot) infecting some plants I had growing in a little grow cabinet. I did a poor job handling it, and it eventually spread to some of my house plants, and I think it recently got into some (I thought dry) buds I had around my room. Now I am intending to...

I have been growing in my closet for a little while now, and it was just a bit too small and inconvenient. I kept looking for a wardrobe or something which I could convert into a grow box, but could never find anything. Finally I decided to just custom build a metal shelf into one, and found...

I have three Blackjack plants grown from seed right now. I didn't really expect them to produce any buds that were anything close to black in color, though a lot of photos show plants with a dark grayish purple tinge to them. I figured they were just edited or lit in such a way to make it look...

So I currently have a single plant flowering in my closet, and four plants vegging in a cabinet. The plants are quickly outgrowing the cabinet, but my flowering plant isn't quite at peak ripeness. I was hoping to move my vegging plants into the closet where theres more room, but I'm not quite...

I'm using my closet as my grow space but it is very narrow in one direction, 3.5 ft x 1.5 ft x 5 ft. I could fit 3 plants in there but the canopies wouldn't have the space to spread out and get huge (its plenty big for the single sour diesel I have in there now though). I was thinking I could...

I've been trying to buy some daylight CFLs to use to vegging but I can't seem to find a store that sells them. All the small hardware stores here in San Francisco sell only the soft white ones. They have ones that are unlabeled, I guess they have a neutral color temperature, so I currently...

I had some bad results germinating some maui waui seeds I got. I'm guessing it was just poor germinating conditions and overhandling. I tried 3 blackjack seeds and 3 maui waui's and only got 2 blackjack seedlings. I want a couple more seedlings, so I'm trying another seed of each, this time...

I have a plant a few weeks into flowering that has been giving me some trouble. I thought I had pH issues, but after reading some stuff that said how good soil is at buffering ph, I'm pretty sure that's not the case. I'm guessing that I was just underfeeding or improperly feeding my plant. It...

So the timer I'm currently using came free with my light, and it seems mostly reliable. However, the little clock does seem to gain a couple minutes a day. Not a huge deal but after two and a half weeks its about 45 minutes ahead of the actual time. Will this slight change in time every day...

So I've just finished getting my whole grow setup together. Well, not entirely true, since I'm sure I'll still buy more stuff for it over the next few months, but I've got the necessities. I have an area by my window for vegging, in which I built a little shelf to put my plants and hang some...

So I'm setting up a little veg area because I'm too impatient to wait for my plant to finish flowering before I start my next grow. I'm going to have 6 plants in my window, with 4 26w CFLs added to give a little light boost and keep them from flowering too early. I'm still figuring out how to...

I have some maui waui seeds germinating, and I'm going to have them vegging in my window with some CFLs. I don't want to let them get too tall before I move them into my closet where I will be flowering them under a 250w HPS. The tallest they can get is 3 maybe 4 feet before I'd worry about...

So if california does end up legalizing marijuana in november, how will it work? Will it be sold in gas stations and liquor stores? Or will it still only be sold in marijuana dispensaries, they will just no longer require a medical card but instead proof of age? It would be nice to be able...

I currently have a plant flowering in my closet, and I just got some seeds I want to plant, but don't want to wait until the flowering one is finished. I was thinking of growing out a couple seeds in my window sill, maybe with a cfl added to make sure they don't start flowering (as much...

So this is my first grow. I started out with the intent to just let it grow in the sun in my window, but now have it flowering in my panda film lined closet under a 250w HPS. I found I got really enthusiastic about growing (surprising, I know). Now, my plant has always had shriveled and brown...

I have a sour diesel flowering in my closet right now. I have the lights coming on around 6 am because that's was about when the sun was rising when I had it growing in my window. This has been kind of inconvenient for me, since I sleep pretty late. I would like to already be up when the...

I have a plant flowering in my closet under a 250w HPS. It recently started showing signs of heat stress. I moved my light up a few inches, but it continued to have problems, so today I moved my fan so that it is blowing in between the light and the top of the plant. I'm hoping that will...

I'm looking for a strain for my next grow. I enjoy smoking weed, and like to be able to smoke a whole joint by myself without getting ridiculously high. It's kinda annoying to me that most of the bud I can find in San Francisco is too strong for me to smoke even a whole bowl. I was thinking...

So I had a plant growing in my window for the past couple months, and it started flowering, much to my surprise. It was such a hassle trying to keep it dark during the night hours that I decided I might as well set up a grow space for it and get lights. After considering CFLs for a while, I...

I just ordered a 250w HPS/MH light, and am trying to figure out where to set it up in my apartment. At the moment, the easiest spot is in our laundry room. However, that would mean my light and fans would be on the same circuit as the washer and dryer(although I just realized that the dryer is...
