    Lights fell, burned top of a few plants.

    So as you can see from the title of the thread, my plants have been burned a little. They are about 4 weeks away from harvest. Only some of the tops experienced some burns. Is there anything in particular I should do or just keep them rolling along as usual? This happened a good 5 days ago...

    Amatuer Question Regarding Ph Testing

    I am about to go buy a pH meter. My question is that am I supposed to test the soil, or the water in my watering can. I know that I should know this already and honestly I've read countless threads on pH testing and I still haven't been able to ascertain what I do with my meter when I get it...

    Dying, Weakening Fan Leaves

    I had a little nute burn so I started to flush. I noticed that the fan leaves towards the bottoms of my plants seem to want to get weak an die.

    Flowering Stage, New Nutes, Do I Dilute?

    I am starting my flowering period later this week. At that time I will be changing nutrients. Do I need to start at 1/4 strength and build up to 100% as I did when I started my first nutrients in my vegging stage? Thanks in advance! bongsmilie

    Is this plant male?

    Pretty straight forward question! This is my first grow. I have a few confirmed females, but I can't tell if this is what a male would look like. Thanks in advance!

    Vegetate Stage, How Long is Too Long?

    I have 7 plants. I've been on an 18/6 light cycle for 8 weeks exactly today. I have two plants that are about 12"-14" tall and seem ready, but most of my other plants are in the 4"-6" range.

    Please take a look at these pictures, nute burn? under/over water?

    My plants have been in soil about 4 weeks. At first they grew very slowly (I think it was too cold) then they took off. But in the last few days the edges of the leaves have turned yellow/brown. After doing some research I decided to post pictures to get an expert opinion on my plants...

    I overwatered my plants, now what?

    I seemingly overwatered yesterday. I did intentionally give them more water than I had been because the soil was always very dry all the way down each time I watered and I figured they needed to at least still be a little moist at the bottom. So my question is this. My plants dark cycle just...

    Calling all (any) Experts! Is there something wrong with this plant?

    These plants will be two weeks old on Friday. All of them are very green but I have a few (about 3 of 15) that have leaves that are drooping down. The others about 12 of the 15 the leaves are going straight out and are looking good. I should mention that yesterday I watered all of my plants a...
