sorry dude, that's a male flower. not one white hair.

if i get a lumatek 400W digital ballast what additional chords and stuff will i need to buy seperately?

I was sexing some plants with a 60x-100x hand held microscope. I found what looks like orange flakes of sand. They don’t seem to move and are irregular in shape. They can’t be seen with the eye and I don’t have a camera good enough to use. Any experience with this? Anyone know what they are...

spider mites? look to the underside and see what you can see.

I tape too. works fine most times.

I ended up getting 4500 lady bugs. The spider mites are almost gone (but not gone) the lady bugs eat the webs too so that’s good. The veg wardrobe is all but mite free so I collected the lady bugs and hung a no-pest strip. I’ll see if that works, To keep them away.

When you first transplant your plants to a new container you can lift it to get an idea of the dry weight. When it weighs that much again water it. That’s what I like to do. As to how much, some people like to use a measuring cup the first time, or anytime it‘s dry really. You just let it run...

you should have gone to the hospital. you can die from that, no joke sometimes just drinking is not enough, if you can’t talk right you need an I.V. asap.

Thanks man, that’s a load off.

I’ve been looking for information on what to do with plants ready for harvest that is also infested with spider mites? Do you know where I can find info on this? Or perhaps you have found a good way to handle the situation. Any advice would be very helpful. Ty.

yes vegging is the way to go. you could make a spreadsheet tracking stuff like: mom, clone date, vegg date/days in veg, height at time of flower, size of containers, (try more then one size), height at 14 days, height at finish, dry grams and anything else you think of, you could then use the...

Cuttings yellow because they are eating themselves, using the energy for root growth. The store bought cloner will work fine, but so will the homemade jobs you can find in the GrowFAQ. Either, way you go, will be better then what you have going on now.

Flushing is for the clean burning, curing is for the taste. Bagweed is cured in the bag during the time it takes to go from harvest to market. Big commercial growers don’t really care but it cures anyway. You could grow enough to get 3 months ahead of your daily habit. That way you will...

a daisy cloner is more money then you need to spend. For much less you can make a working cloner. 2 out of 9 is over a 20% success rate. Some plants take to cloning better then others. My White widow is only like 20% and still well worth it I just kept a clone and made 2 moms, more cuttings...
