    If I really knew the end date, I could subtract days from it, but

    The dilemma I have is on two prior grows of Northern Lights my plants never produced many cloudy and very few amber trichromes. I followed advice to cut nutes 2 weeks prior. I used the published end of the range of days to maturity as my guide. My plants expired on timetable a bit after two...

    Lower buds turning purple

    I have started to harvest a couple of earlyish buds of my white widow. I'm eight and one half weeks into what was an anticipated window of 8-10 weeks. The plant has been under 8/16 for the last week and a half. The top buds look have appeared to change, albeit slowly, as expected. The bottom...

    Down to the wire - Advice needed

    I am on my 3rd grow. The first two were northern lights and were not very successful. I never had many cloudy or amber trichromes and the result was very very unpotent. I am now 8 weeks into 12/12 with a white willow plant. At least 80% of pistals are orange and trichromes a a mix of cloudy and...

    Grow Box - intake vent

    I purchased a turn-key system and I am now trying to build a DIY for a second. The purchased system has a plate for the intake that does not allow light to exit (and I assume to enter). I have not been able to find anything similar. The closest I found on the forums was an 8 in x 8 in vent for a...

    Near Maturity turning red

    I have a plant that is nearing maturity. I was advised to flush the plant for two weeks prior to taking it. I'm one week into that and my plant is turning red. Previously in it's life, I underfed it, it started to get red stems and veins. This is much more pronounced. Should I take any...

    done yet

    My plant is mature with brown stigmas but I have never seen any amber trichromes. I have been looking at the trichromes daily and they have mostly fallen off the top bud - but no amber. This is my first grow. Should I wait or take some action. Lower buds are only some brown stigmas. The...

    Flushing

    I have two plants in a DWC setup. One plant is getting close and the other is probably two weeks behind. Should I flush prior to taking the first plant? If so, once I take the plant, should I add nutes back to the other?

    While waiting for amber trichromes

    I have two plants on my first grow. I have been checking the trichromes daily using the radio shack 60-100x scope. Some are clear and some are cloudy. The hairs have pretty much dried up on the top bud, so I thought I would see amber. While I had the scope out , I decided to look at some...

    So confused - stretching

    I have two plants. Due to an asymmetrical light one plant was taller than the other. I started 12/12 seven weeks ago. The taller plant has continued to grow. I have continued to move the light up to accommodate it. The light has been 2-3" from the top of the tall plant. The smaller plant...

    How to care for clones you are not ready to use.

    First Grow. I have a few clones that have roots. I cut those out of the plastic holding the plugs and put the plugs into netpots with hydrokernals. My Deep Water System will be occupied for for several weeks. How do I care for my babies in the meantime?
