    Too many plants

    After a grow last year that went nowhere, I have a new one underway that seems to be doing well at about three weeks. I currently have them in one gallon plastic pots, but they will be going into fabric pots in a couple of days. My tent is home-brew, 2 1/2 x 3 x 6 feet. I can fit six 5 gallon...

    How early can you repot?

    I have three small plants going now in small pots. One is about two weeks older than the others, and ought to be re-potted (it's about eight inches tall). The other two are only about four or five inches. Would I have any issues with re-potting all three? Or should I let the smaller ones build...

    Well, Shit!

    So, I figured the seedlings were ready to go from the T5s to the MH. As I was getting ready to remove the T5 fixture, I saw that three of the four bulbs were burned out. :wall: I had just stuck it in the tent without checking. I thought it looked kind of dim. The guy in the mirror looks pretty...

    Temps for germinating and seedlings?

    I just got a heat mat for my latest grow. What should I set the thermostat to?

    Root growing UP?

    I'm just starting my latest grow. I got my seeds from Sannies, and germinated three of them. Instead of using rockwool cubes as I've done in the past, I went with the paper towel method. All three popped, and placed into soil (added Pearlite). One is vigorous, another less so, but on the third...

    Finishing ahead of schedule?

    I have four clones I took from two moms (two from each), and basing on the moms' grow, figured they'd be ready sometime late next week. They have mostly amber trichs, the white hairs have receded, and the calyxes have fattened up (not nearly as much as I would have liked). One of the moms I...

    Booster fan for intake?

    My current grow should be done in a couple of weeks, and I plan on making a number of refinements to my home-brew tent. I currently have a 135 CFM fan cooling the light, and a bathroom exhaust fan (I forget the rating) venting the whole tent. Air enters via a passive intake port. As long as...

    New Generation LST

    I figured it was time to give these girls their own thread. Two each clones from two moms [Nirvana AK48] in soil. Seeing how compact these are structured means I should be able to fit four 6 Gal pots in the tent without crowding. I figure I should rotate the pots a little every day so that the...

    LST and Re-potting

    I have four clones that I am heavily LSTing. They will have to be re-potted in the near future. Do you have to remove all the hardware first, and reattach it later, or can you just leave it in place. Or do you just re-do the whole thing? Will it hurt much if I delay re-potting by a week to ten...

    Once they start turning amber . . .

    When the trichs start turning amber, how rapidly does it progress? Same pace as clear to cloudy? I'm so eager to harvest, but don't want to do it too soon. I just saw a couple this morning. I've been aiming for a week into July (about two and a half weeks); does that sound reasonable?

    Clover Mites?

    I think that's what they are. Yesterday, I gathered a few pine cones for a still life photo. This morning I noticed some tiny red critters crawling on the bag the cones were in, and there's a few crawling on the pots that have my clones:o These things are tiny, maybe a tenth of a millimeter...

    Changing Light Schedule but still 12/12

    I was reading this thread: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/655291-combating-summer-heat.html , on the first really hot day of the year, and was thinking about changing my lights so they're not on during the hottest part of the day. Given my current timer settings, I would have to...

    How much water?

    At a time, that is. I am growing a couple of plants in 3 Gal pots of soil. I have read so much about not over-watering, so I want to avoid that. I've been doing the "Stick a finger in it" thing, and when it feels dry, I put in about a pint of water, about every two days or so. They've been...

    My new grow

    Hi, first post here. I've been working on this grow about two months now. My previous grows weren't so good, due to all sorts of factors. After the last batch was worthless, I tore everything down, and re-built my tent, hopefully learning from my mistakes. I don't have much space, so I used...
