    Experimental use with an Air stone

    lol some people are just more concerned with sounding right, than being right. Thanks for all the great info, I think the air-pruning idea is really interesting and I might check that out next time if it works out for you. The idea behind it sounds pretty legit! Good find :]

    Experimental use with an Air stone

    Is there any particular part of the idea that seems detrimental to the growing process? Would the soil dry out super fast?

    Soil composition

    Has anyone done any testing with experimental soil comps? My wife has some soil that's made for cactus/succulents that boasts moderate water drainage over traditional soil (possibly some additional sand) but I believe the soil's also more acidic. Based on the idea of introducing a steady...

    Experimental use with an Air stone

    What would happen if one were to place an air stone at the bottom of a regular soil medium? If at all beneficial, what would be the best way to include it? My grow setup is going to include a reservoir of water under stones to keep humidity high in my grow space, so I have a few options when...

    Plant issues

    These pictures are all current, any ideas? You can see my little CO2 generator goin' at the bottom. This is a picture of the leaf from 2 days ago, before it started looking really bad. I considered the possibility that even though I have a fan in my grow room (about 4x4 floor space...

    Plant issues

    How can you tell the difference between nute burn vs light/heat burn vs bad bug spray? I had to hit my plants with some organic pesticide and they've seem to have gone to shit since. I tried watering them with a dose of water +10/10/10 at the recommended serving level, but they got worse. All...

    Advice with Lights Please Help!

    I don't know what the truth of it is, but I dug this up in another post and thought the information was interesting and relevant. If/when I add more lighting to my system, it'll be for base of my leaves.

    Advice with Lights Please Help!

    I'm still new to the scene, but I'm pretty sure as long as the temperatures are regulated and the soil is moist, I don't think there's such a thing as too much light. I'm sure there's a maximum amount of productivity that additional light will produce, a sort of diminishing returns, but if you...

    how long till my plant shows sex?????

    "Early female marijuana flowers look like little furry hairs, usually white, but they can be other colors. Early male flowers look a bit like small bunches of mini green bananas. Look near the leaf joins on your plants to see them emerging...

    Aphids, Thrips, and "Organic Insecticide"

    Lol I hear ya. The wife and I were out on a walk by this river nearby and I found a lady bug hanging out on a tall blade of wheat grass. I snapped off the piece of grass and was checking out the little guy for a minute in my hand when I saw it digging in the plant. To my surprise, out popped...

    Aphids, Thrips, and "Organic Insecticide"

    Alrighty, here's the low-down... I've pretty positively identified the early signs of a Thrips infestation in my plants, so my current plan of attack is to kill them asap. I've been told Lady Bugs would help with the Thrips, but unfortunately they're a little hard to find in my area this year...

    Plant problems from a noobie!

    Home Depot stopped selling lady bugs in our area, in store D:. I picked up some organic pesticide for fungus/mold and insect killer that says will work on thrips. The company boasts that you can spray it the day you harvest and everything will be hunkydori... so we'll see what happens I guess.

    Plant problems from a noobie!

    Thrips it is then? Will lady bugs still take them out? I also read something about a vegetable oil called "neem oil" that's used as an insect repellent and insecticide. Anyone have any experience with it?

    Vigoro all purpose fertilizer. Comes in a liquid solution but has a 10/10/10 mix. Saw some 10/30/10 home depot for flowering plants; thinking about picking it up.

    Plant problems from a noobie!

    What would the eggs look like? I inspected all of them as carefully as I could and the only thing I saw were little tiny brown stick looking things, but I have a heavy duty fan going on them, so I just think it's mulch particles. Well shiz, let's just say the thrip what is causing the white...
