Thanks JN811. I figured it would add a week or two to flowering. I've been maintaining 80*F in my box, inside. It's been averaging in the mid 90's during the day at my house. Will that have a huge effect, or just add to the already expected additional time?

In regards to Legalizeitcanada's question, can you start a clone using just a glass of water and a cutting? I know using the 'approved' method is best, but will just water work? Sorry if I highjacked, not my intent.

90's are too high man.. especially if ur flowering... You really need to figure out some way to drop ur temps.. I know its hard during summer time.. If you can afford it id say a portable AC units ur best option.. and yes it can have a pretty significant effect on your plants.. Wilting, burns, slowed-grow, ect. ect. Controlling temps is a huge factor that lots of growers ignore..

I've never actually cloned using water but if you use rooting gel but i believe it can be done.. so I really dunno the answer for sure..

We are super-newbies at this:?. My hubby had collected a dozen seeds or so and we planted them in a long pot outside using a good quality soil and compost. 6 of the seeds took but after about 5 weeks the plants are still very small (between 3-5 inches tall). Should they be bigger by now? Starting to panic because we live in Canada and only have another 6 weeks of truely hot weather. Indoors is not an option for us. I am going to transfer them to a larger pot and didn't know if I should do anything special with the soil we will be adding. Other than fertilizer do we really need to do anything fancy like cloning or pollinating because that is way over heads being our first try. Any advice is appreciated - thanks.

hi im a newbie here never grown weed before but wanna try soon. Im using a stealth box 20 X 20 inches square X 4 ft tall. I heard I need to use 5 gallon pots for good root growth. but then I can only grow 1 plant at a time. Can I use smaller pots and grow 2-3 plants possibly? I will be using clones from my local dispensary. will the plants become root bound before full growth cycle if the pots are too small .I also want to use 2 computer fans 1 for intake and 1 for exhaust. I have 2 cfl bulbs 26 watt equivalent to 100 watt 2650 K spectrum.will this help me to get started in vegative stage,meanwhile I can buy more cfl bulbs in the flowering spectrum 6500 K and switch out the bulbs to flowering when it is time.how many light bulbs do I need per plant?thanks to anyone who can give a beginner some friendly advice.

age old question... yes you can use smaller pots.. but to do so.. you REALLY need to have a GREAT understanding of ur plants.. your plants will need VERY specific amounts of nutes because the rootmass wont be able to expand and search the soil for them.. but if ur a newbie.. Id recommend no smaller than 3 gallon pots.. trust me.. the bigger the better in my opinion.. but I have seen HUGE plants grown out of 1 gallon pots.. but it requires TONS of knowledge and discipline...

dude.. with that amount of lighing ull end up growing a gram.. or two.. its really not worth it.. My closet grow consisted of 8 plants, an 8 square foot closet, and 1200 watts of HID lighing.. I yielded 330 dry grams.. Light tis one of the Biggest factors!! read "things to know about lighting" its stickied in general growing forum..

Sorry guys i have to go to work.. Ill try and answer more when i get home.. I am working on a great website though.. theclosetgrow.com.. Its should be up soon.. PM me if ud like me to send u an message when it is.. it will take you on a step-by-step explanation of the entire grow process.. later guys :weed:

Hey growers, My buddy and I want to open a hydro shop somewhere in the bay area and I need your help with choosing a location. We're looking for a place that doesn't have a good hydro shop already. If anyone out there has some good suggestions, I'm all ears. I also am looking for suggestions on product lines to carry. I have been growing for years and only know the couple of nutes I've personally used. thanks

hey guys
soon i ill be attempting my first grow. i am planning on using a hydro-drip system throughout the whole grow. The medium in which I'll be growing is called Hydroton expanded clay, it's supposedly designed for the system I'm going to build. i need to some advice and timings for the watering schedule that I'll meed to use to get the best results possible throughout my entire grow.
I have a few strains in mind, specifically white widow. would I need to alter the times for different strains of plant?
Also do you have any other advice on germinating; I need to know if i can put the straight into my hydroponic garden afterwards.
I will be growing ten plants under a 600WATT HPS bulb in a grow tent, i have an extractor and carbon filter to keep the air clean and remove the smell.
any other advice on getting maximum yield would be appreciated.
thanks guys
looking forward to your reply :joint:​

IMO its a personal choice. I leave mine pretty leafy as they are drying because they will start to wrap around the bud and prevent oxidation from happening. After they dry I then will hand manicure em to clean em up. But thats just me.
