    Soil Questions

    I've got some seeds I just sprouted using the paper towel method and don't know what kind of soil to put them in. My plan is to fill up a peat cup with some soil for them and then once they get big enough, they'll just outgrow the peat cup. Problem is I don't know if just sprouted seeds want a...

    Seed Problems

    I have some seeds in a peat tray filled with miraclegro seed starting mix, the seeds are autoflowers. My problem is I planted them last Tuesday and they still haven't sprouted. Two of them popped up above the surface of the soil today, but neither of them had a taproot. I also couldn't quite...

    Pruning Advice?

    I've got 10 auto-flower plants outside right now and NEED pruning advice. I've read that you shouldn't do any pruning 1 month before a marijuana plant goes into flowering. Well, since autoflower plants skip flowering should I even prune? If I was going to prune I would just cut off any...

    Which Strain Should I Choose?

    Alright I'm growing outdoors and I know I'm late into the season, but I live in the southwest and we practically never get frost so I should be good.

    Nutrient Schedule For Auto-Flower Strain

    I have a seedling that's an auto-flower and am wondering what to about nutes. Some places I've read auto-flower strains don't like nutes and not to give them any and other places I've read to give them flowering nutrients after the seedling stage since the plant itself skips the vegetative...

    Frost and harvesting

    For my region usually the first frost comes the 20th of October, and I was wondering, how can I tell when the frost is coming exactly? Like is the first frost the first day the temperature goes below freezing? Or is it the first day that the temperature comes close to freezing? Also, if my...

    Water

    Alright a few quick questions: First, I have outdoor plants that are in holes filled with FFOF soil that I started late (but they're auto-flowering so they'll be fine) and they're estimated to grow to 120cm, therefore, I'm wondering on average how much water should I be giving to each plant per...

    Potting Soil Question

    Alright I'm late into the season and am planning on growing an auto-flower strain. Now since they have significantly lower yield I'm buying 28 seeds and I'll be digging 28 holes that are 1.5 feet by 1.5 feet. Does this mean I'll need 28 bags of 1.5 cubic feet worth of potting soil? If so that's...

    Filling My Holes

    I was looking at Fox Farm Ocean Forest potting soil because it has the best reviews and all the stuff a marijuana plant needs, but it's super expensive. If I dig a hole 1.5 ft x 1.5 ft how much cubic potting soil will I need to fill it? I'm assuming for a hole that size I'll need 1.5 cubic feet...

    First Time Dilemma

    Okay, so I am a little late into the outdoor season and am wondering what route to take. I can either completely forget about growing outdoors and I'd purchase a grow box from pcgrowbox.com and just do indoor growing, or I could buy a grow box from them and in 2-3 weeks they'd be in the...
