    taking cuttings for clones at harvest time

    The best clones are taken from the actively growing new branch tips. Take the clones from the fifth node or above and can be taken until a couple of weeks before flowering. Flowering cuttings will work, but are much harder to root and reverse. PW

    N-P-K Values for making your home made Nutes!

    I think this is incorrect. The values listed are the % of the product of the total. To get a correct analysis you would add the various amendment values and then average the result. In the above example the combination of equal volumes of the two amendments would be 2.5, .52, and 2.2...

    Do males produce hermed seeds???

    You are the one suggesting this is the case. I never said anything about only fem seeds causing hermies, but in many cases hermies are from the genetic makeup of the feminized seeds. Nothing will be accurately assessed until the OP posts a picture, until then everyone is just guessing.

    Do males produce hermed seeds???

    You don't have a male hermaphrodite, it is just a ordinary hermaphrodite. The male flowers will show, then if grown longer before removing from the grow the female flower will appear. I would guess this was originally a feminized seed that turned hermaphrodite.

    Look what my friend did to my babies. THAT ASSHOLE.

    Dr Resinthumb has the correct answer. These plants were burned up with fertilizer. Plants this small cannot tolerate fertilizer salts, especially unrooted cuttings. PW

    Is It Possible to Pull 2400g Off 2x600w???

    Lots of speculation on this grow by people quoting numbers they could never achieve themselves. Only you will be able to tell us how much you can produce in your grow room. My guess is anything over 1/2 # is a blessing. PW

    Compost tea 10$ a gallon

    There is no need for these so called "high end products" in ACT. A simple brew of compost and EWC and a couple of tbsp of kelp meal make a better tea than these bottled nutrient teas you are talking about. Organic growing is not about pouring any bottled nutrients into your grow. It is about...

    4 stem experiment ( Bringing stems back to life ! )

    Why try to clone them if there are no leaves to support growth when removed from the main stem. Your best chance is to leave the plant in the original soil ball or hydro basket and try to grow new leaves from the existing nodes and take cuttings from the new shoots that emerge. If you have...

    Compost tea 10$ a gallon

    ACCT teas must be used immediately after brewing. There is NO shelf life and the tea starts to degrade as soon as it is removed from the brewing bucket. Teas should be brewed for 12hrs minimum to 36 hours maximum. Brewing your own is easy and can be done for a few cents. I would never...

    Roots didn't grow after transplant!

    If your plants were flowering when transplanted they will grow very few roots while flowering. After transplant the plant should be vegged until the roots have spread into the new soil and are holding the new soil together in a new soil ball. When plants flower, the auxin's for cell...

    leaves have" rust specks" on them

    It is not the yeast generator causing this problem. Your pH is off and the micro nutrients are being locked out, causing the spots on the leaf. Correct your pH and the problems will go away. The damaged leaf will not recover, but the plant should grow unaffected leaves when this is resolved. PW

    The effects of interupting light for 5mins???

    Light interruption in vegetative stage is no problem. Constant light interruption in flowering will slow or stop flower initiation. An occasional interruption is usually OK, but continued, repeated, exposures in the flowering period is not advised.

    Does pot size matter

    There is no reason to tear up the root ball if it is not rootbound. Unless the roots are really dense and net-veined and encircling the soil ball there is no reason to disturb them. If they are starting to become a thick dense mat scoring is beneficial to the transplant. If you are observant...

    Does pot size matter

    Transplant to a 3 or 5 gal pot when the 1 gal is rooted to the sides and bottom of the pot. Do not try to remove the existing soil from the soil ball. You will do more damage than good. When the one gallon is ready to transplant take the whole root ball and transplant into a 3 or 5 gal pot...

    I just wish the bud i grew got me high.

    Why don't you show us some studies about this. How can a plant that has ruderallis as one parent be more potent than sativas or indicas when the genetics of the ruderallis does not contain thc. This sounds like a statement based on opinion not facts. Auto flowering plants are not as potent as...

    Reliable ppm chart for marijuana??

    The charts posted by the various companies only apply to their specific line of nutrients. You can not use formulas from other suppliers sites on a different brand. Every fertilizer is different so you have to follow the directions for the brand you are using, ie: General hydroponics...
