    Safe Light For Entering Dark Grow Room

    Not too long ago, when changing timers for DST, one of the timers got all fucky and stayed on. I think it was on for a couple of days. Do you know what effect that had on the plants... None at all. Full light through two dark cycles - no problems. I had been concerned about light leaks before...

    reveging and cloning purple kush

    Keep an eye on that stick. If still has some green in it, it could come back. I've written off plants before (orange and money tree), only to see them come back. Then again, don't count on it. The clones look good. Just asking, but why didn't you just take some clones while it was in veg? I...

    What plant does this flower come from?

    It looks kind of like Curled Dock, but have my doubts. Likely a common weed or flower, seeing as they use wild lettuce and marigold (Tagetes)

    What ripeness do YOU prefer, and why?

    I like to go for all cloudy. I scope new plants to find out around when that is, and then 'set it and forget it'.

    when can i trim a sample?

    Don't even talk about it, man. You've got the idea rolling around in your head right now. Next thing you know, you'll have smoked a whole bunch of green weed and only a pinner of decent smoke left to your name. Oh guy, it'll be a tragedy! Don't walk down this path, there's no going back. Turn...

    Lights out for week, what can i do minimmizes damage?

    Who has a week long power outage? Meh. Move the plants into sunlight. I'm not sure but I think your bigger problem is a serious lack of bubbles.

    when can i trim a sample?

    Wait. Wait until you have harvested, dried, and cured before you dig into your sweet, sweet weed. Anything you smoke right now will be crappy and inferior. You must wait. Patience, you must have. For the love of God, man. WAIT! lol

    Flushing Info for pot growers

    Never said nutrients were stored in the buds. I believe that plants store energy in the form of sugars, right? Ever burn sugar? It doesn't burn cleanly. Kind of a 'harsh' smoke. It makes sense to me that if you deprive the plant of nutrients for the last two weeks of it's life, it will start to...

    Flushing Info for pot growers

    I've given a general outline of an actual experiment I've done. It supports the argument for flushing. You are free to repeat it if you have doubts. I would suggest modifying it by adding a group that is fertilized right up to harvest.

    Flushing Info for pot growers

    I'm pretty sure they starve the plants of nitrogen to improve taste, not just because they smoke leaves. Not sure I'm picking up what you're laying down, Jack.

    Hey Canada

    Perhaps it isn't the inability of either Canada Post or USPS, but rather, the combined dumbfuckery of both parties which coalesces into a sort of, 'pan-american idiocy' of mail delivery.

    How can homeless people

    What I don't understand is why homeless people don't get a goat or sheep, maybe some rabbits? You know, something you can eat. The most you can do with a dog is make a coat... And you'd need a few dogs for that.

    Flushing Info for pot growers

    What you suggest sounds like under-watering, ZeeDoc. If the plants take 5L and you are only giving them 1L, you are going to have a lot of dried out roots. Remember, watering also aids gas exchange. This is one of the reasons that drainage is important. As the water is absorbed by the roots...

    Where to buy hydrometer?

    You can find them in garden sections at walmart and home depot, or at local garden centres. I find them quite handy, especially with hard to reach pots. You might not want one from the dollar store, but I wouldn't invest too much in them. I use >This one<.

    do little white bugs actually harm plans?

    What are these 'little white bugs'? What mould would they be feeding off of? My opinion would be that both of these things are harming your plants.

    This place is really a dump

    On the bottom right of your monitor, there's a button with 'I/O' on it. Press that, and all your posts should be gone. It might be on the tower, too. That one works better for me, but I'm really good at computers.

    Waterlogged! Any advice?

    Well, you did add as much water as the soil could possibly hold at a point when consumption was at it's slowest. It's going to take awhile for it to dry out. It's not really a problem. As long as you let the soil dry out as you normally would between waterings/flushes you should be fine. Is...

    White trichomes = time to harvest?

    Up to you, dude. Your call. You're at the peak, it's just a matter of personal preference at this point.

    Fox Farm has heavy metals? Look what i found

    Consuming heavy metals may be fine for the plant, but I'm not down with that. Sure copper and molybdenum occur naturally and aren't harmful (that I'm aware of.), but it'd be hard to convince me that smoking arsenic, cobalt, lead, mercury, etc., is 'okay'. I mean, I wouldn't lose sleep over it...

    Waterlogged! Any advice?

    Just leave it. Let it dry out as you normally would. Next time you might want to improve the drainage of your soil. Hakuna Mahtata. EDIT: The drain holes aren't 'sealed' under the pot, are they?
