Can anybody help me figure out what I'm doing wrong. These plants are 2 months old and are of an unknow indoor strain. I saw some of the buds and they had some purp, and by the look of the leaves I think its an indica. Most of the the plants have solid green stems while a few are turning purple. Is that natural or is it a problem with nut's. What is the problem with my leaves. Sulfer???

Click to expand...

hey backpacker.... start a journal and take more pictures... we also need lots of more information.... are all the leaves that way?? or only the ones that have fallen??? what stage of growth are you in??? then you can get most of the help ou need in order to sort out your worries!!!!
Good luck!

so whats good? Im new to this website and to growing. I have been a pothead for quite some time, also I have provided for the needs of others now for about 2 years. Im ready to step it up and cut out the middle man. I want to spend some money and do it right, but I want the cheapest best way so maybe some where in the medium range cost. Any advice or comments will help. I took horticulture and plant science in high school so I know a little bit about plant growth and health. I have lots of badass seeds that im ready to start with I just need some pointers on pretty much all phases.

Click to expand...

Hey MoneyMaker, stoped playing poker??? anyways there are great ideas in the setup section of the forum.... you can also take a look at the FAQ.. that will give you a basic knowledge of what you want to do....
Find out the space contraints.... the from there is the lighting.. depending on your preferences and your expectations!!!! hope that helps a little more... but you are not going to get much more input on this in this thread... probably try to post a qustion like this in the setup section!!!

good luck with all you grows...
if anything just send me a message!!

This site is extremely helpfull. Got alot of good ideas for my first grow.

Anyway just wanted to say hi, form the UK

easy growers , ive never signed up for any site like this before but have got some good tips on previous crops. I have recently built a hydroponic drip system which seems to be working. has anybody got any ideas for other systems i could try to build as a comparison

Hello everyone, I just got my order from Nirvana Global (got 5x Snow White, 5x Chrystal, 5x Short Rider, 5x Aurora Indica, and 5x Papaya, all femanized) on 4/20/09. I planted 2x Snow White and 2x Chrystal and at 4 days they are looking good thus far. I think in a couple days i will plant 2 of the Aurora Indica. I am going to be running a SoG/Perpetual harvest. My mother room has a 400W MH and is 4x4x8. My Flower room is 7x5x7 with 2x 600W HPS. Clone room is 4x3x3 with t5 dual ballast. I have had great success with KB bag seeds, but now that I have "real" seeds am a bit nervious I will try to hard and mess things up, pray for me

Sup guys ? Noob here . Site looks great . Wish I had found it about 10 years ago . My business partner turned me on to the site and it looks like we will be starting a new venture soon

Hello everyone, this is my first forum and my first grow. I purchased the 4x4x7 grow hut and a 400 watt hps hortilux bulb which i am using throughout the whole growing process.
I am currently in the flowering stage on the second week now. I have 13 plants, 8 Mendo purps, 2 Sour Diesels, 2 Grapefruit Diesels, and 1 Church. I also just started my first cloning process. I took my clones from my veg plants so i have no mothers. I took 30 clones because i didnt know which ones would root if any at all. Two weeks and still no roots. I will be posting pics once my phone comes in. Thanks keep it lit.

what's up dog's, cats, stoners , freaks geeks, growers, and tokers, I'm the new jack on the card, i;m a choker and certainly a smoker. i'm doing my best to grow some serious green, so i will certainly listen to any add i may get, i don't know it all , but it would be cool to know so. i'm intro myself, been puffin' on the splif over 40 x years and i desided to go on my own and grow the rest of my life, that is if some thing don't stop me, sooooooo here iam, birdman from birdland with this no # 13 tatooed on my hand, you know 13, 13th number of the alfabet, M, stands for mota, mariquana, or is that to old school.

Hey homie whats up ^^. I just started growing about i think maybe 2 or 2.5 weeks ago and all i been doing is i have it in my bedroom window so there is sun on it until the sun goes down and i water it like about 1/4 of a cup of water 2 times a day *sure that prolly isnt the right way* and that is about it i was wondering if im doing anything wrong or is there some better tips some people could help a homie out?



This is my plant *3* right. Im guessing it is in veg stage. The big one is being held up by 2 popsicle sticks because it decided it wanted to look like it was running away from its pot. How many stages will the plant go through and can you all list them for me?

Hi all, its my first year growing, indoor and outdoor. I and more of an indoor fan but nothing compares to the yield of outdoor, i am also a cfl only man yeah, yeah, ive heard it all but hey its cheaper i am just getting my feet wet with hydro, i built a little waterfarm setup for myself, i plan to build a aero system. so high all lol im a nor cal guy.

if you order seeds and you sent them to your house, will you be listed of any kind?

Hey people! I just ordered a couple feminised seeds from attitude seed bank and I can't wait! I got white widow autoflowering dwarf and afghan kush feminised. Hope all goes well. Ill keep you guys posted

hey so im thinking about growing my for the first time outdoors. i live in tucson, AZ and originally i thought it would be too hot in the summer to continuously be growing. but after talking to a few people, they said it was totally do-able and better because there is constant sun and low humidity. i know it will require harder work in this hot of weather, but i have a great backyard with a 5 foot wall around the whole property. has anyone grown in tucson or southern arizona before? how did it go?

Right now I would say probably two stages, the one they are in now and then will come the death stage if you don't stop drowning your plants. Your plants need some oxygen down there in that root zone and they ain't gettin any right now. Overwatering is the number one problem for new growers. Number 2 is underwatering. You are not under watering, good job with that, just about everything else you have is wrong, you are not underwatering though.
Your plant isn't jumpin out of the pot, its looking for more light, stretchin for it, and of course as you found out, its not strong enough, because it can't breath, your drowning it, so you have to prop it up. You are going to need more light or they are not going to make it, even if you quit drowning them. Of course you could end up with 3 females and the fact that all of the roots will be bound together in that one pot will not matter, any males, you are screwed.
Now before you call me any more names, I really do know that you want to do this right, you have a lot of reading to do, and since your plants are not going to need any water for at least 3 days, you have time to do it now. Read through a few journals that have been posted in the forum, a couple about 6 months old should be a big help to you. We want to help you, lord knows you need it right now. And did I mention thanx for the pictures, we like pictures, and did I mention, quit drowning your plants. VV

OMFG there is a place that could have helped me with this Freaking awesome I was just flying by the seat on my Pants but I have alot of questions now. Of ourse I'm a new grower. Growing cause the grade and quality of the stuff out here is dropping. NAd I needed a hobbie so I picked this. Now being that I'm new, breeds and so on are not something I know. I planted a seed from a reggie and one from some smoking zona well actually 4. 2 of each they all germanated fine but only one zona and one reggie popped out of the soil in their cups. I was watering everyday not sure is I may have drowned the other 2 but at least at this point I think that I have 2 very strong plants just hope that at least one becomes a female. Can someone point me in the right direction as to how I should handle my 2 kiddies. ones been above soil about a week that other about 2 week. Feeling like a proud parent right now and I wanna do right by my kids any current parents have any advice for a newbie like me...

hi all,
new to this site, but joined cos there seems to be alot of good info on here, ill be sharing some pics of a desiel ryder, breeding program i am about to start.

anyway guys i look forward to picking your brains, in the close future.

Nah man lol i wasn't calling you any names. Yea i was looking on that 100 questions asked thread *i think it was 100* and i was looking at the how much water they need and i saw someone say something about they water them every 3 days and every 6 days they give it some fertilizer or something idk but i stopped watering it after i saw that. I stopped drowning them i just only have a problem with the light thing i mean this side of the house where my plant is does get sun but that is the only thing for light i can use. I live with my girl at her parents and her mom does we are growing, hell she smokes with us but her dad is another thing he cant no. So i cant have a whole setup and i know jack about lights. When we find a house i should beable to get me a setup then and be alot easier but right now its kinda rough. Thanks for the help i appreciate it. Imma go look at them journels you were talking about right now.
