    Anyone ever had a plant(s) just NOT transition to flower?

    I have two Blue Dream plants in a tent with plenty of strong light. They were planted from seed early May and left in veg mode (lights on 23/1) for a month. In the first week of June I flipped the lights to 12/12 and started feeding them General Hydroponics standard nutrient schedule for...

    Recommendations for a large-volume herb grinder?

    Time to replace my old one (after an extensive de-keifing, of course!) and I'm looking for one that can handle up to about half an ounce at a time. Suggestions?

    Acapulco Gold, should be harvesting next week!

    Very excited for this grow because it's been a while since my last really successful harvest. Light issues, water issues, just general BS'ery. But this one has gone well. Calendar says I can harvest as soon as next week, thoughts? She's been fed nothing but old aquarium water juiced with a...

    After Flipping Your Lights to 12/12 Do You Keep Pruning Growth Tips?

    I've got some Aztec Gold that was flipped 3 weeks ago and it is still putting on height, many strains do this so not worried about that. I've been mainlining it since it sprouted and was wondering if other growers kept trimming off the growth tips that the stems keep putting out after its been...

    Aquarium Water

    55gal planted tank that is running beautifully. Tank water has zeroes on ammonia, nitrites and nitrates, with a low-med PH (can't remember number off top of my head). Plants are two weeks since being put into Fox Farms under a 1000w lamp in a tent. 1. Pretty sure its safe to use the aquarium...

    And I'm Back...

    Life threw me some turns this past spring/summer, ended up working most of summer in Atlanta. And worst part is, I had to give away ten GORGEOUS Durban Poison plants that were less than 3 weeks out of sprouting. Unfortunately the gent I gave them to, a fellow enthusiast and accomplished grower...

    Mushrooms on BRF cakes... how much to innoculate?

    Following the stickied videos here and am starting 12 BRF cakes in small mason jars. The video doesn't say how much he's injecting at each site, but it doesn't look like much. How much should I be injecting each time?

    First Timers... 5 Things I Wish I Knew When I Was Starting

    Full disclosure: I'm writing this after harvesting my very first grow. It went MUCH better than it could have, but not as well as my next one will. This post is just the five things I wish I could go back in time and tell myself way back last summer when I started down this path. Details of My...

    Recommend a Strain Please

    I'm getting ready to setup a primary strain that will get cloned grow after grow. I always prefer sativas over indicas, but hybrids that are heavy on the sativa side are welcome too. Time to harvest and yield are important as well. Indoor and feminized are good traits. Thoughts?

    I love Herbie's, but.... Second package in a row to NOT arrive.

    So far this company is 0 for 2 in first-time deliveries. My first was never delivered so they re-sent it. But now my second is also not here. Ugh. Anyone else having this issue with them?

    How does light affect curing?

    Reading about curing harvested bud and the instructions always say "store in a cool dark place." I can understand cool, but what does light do to screw up the harvest? Doesn't mold and mildew grow better in dark conditions?

    Rate My Girls!

    Kinda surprised there isn't a photography forum here. No worries, I'll start a thread! I can do this, I know I can! So go grab a fresh pic of whatever you've got seeding/vegging/flowering/curing/smoking... clean it up in Gimp, PS, etc and then post it here. Feel free to comment on my ladies!

    Recommendations, please: 600w - 1000w LED lights

    I understand that 'optimal' wattage for a tent is about 100w per square foot, yes? I'm just about to wrap up my current grow and want to improve my lighting in the tent during the next cycle. Some background... 1. Current tent is 4X4X7, so that's 16sqf of floor space. 2. Current light is a 600w...

    What's going on that makes the pistils curl and yellow?

    I'm nearing harvest with my ladies and I'm learning that straight, white pistils are one sign of a still immature plant (not the best method of determining harvest time, I know). I'm curious about what's going on in the flower that causes them to darken and curl up. Anyone know?

    Can you take clones from plants at the end of flowering?

    Just curious if its too late to take some clones? Probably 2 weeks away from harvest. Thanks!

    Just your typical "Is she ready?" post, please ignore.

    And the verdict is...? Should these girls be harvested in the next two weeks or not? Thanks amigos!!

    As the Newbiest of Newbs... can I say...

    That I never EVER thought I could make something like this pic. I mean seriously, this is fucking amaze-balls and I'm not even stoned at all. Don't get me wrong, I'm not bragging, I'm just stunned looking at it. There is literally no way in hell I could have done this without the assistance of...

    Rez Additives?

    Girls are in mid-late flower (see pics) and the rez has always and only been water, pH moderators and the GH Flora Trio. What are the recommended additives to add bloom weight? Is it too late to effect this?

    Mg and Zn??

    There was a site that mentioned that dead/white leaf tips were indicative of the girls needing more mag and zinc. What product/process do I use to get that? Pics included incase anyone wants to double check the diagnosis... Thanks RIU!
