This is my first grow, and throughtout the vegetative state of my 4 outside potted Acapulco Gold plants, I had almost no trouble with bugs, and things remained that way until my plants started flowering. It's 11 days now since my ladies started blossoming, and all hell has broken loose, the...

This is my first grow, and throughout the vegetative growth of my outdoor potted Acapulco Gold plants, I had almost no trouble with bugs; that is until my plants started flowering. It's 11 days now since my ladies began to blossom, and all hell has broken loose, the invasion of the leaf...

I'm a first time grower, and like most other first timers, I've made a few mistakes along the way. Yesterday I discovered what I believe to be my biggest mistake so far. I'm really embarrassed to admit this but I have to find out how much harm I've done to my outdoor plants in pots, so here we...

I'm a first time grower, and like most other first time growers, I've made a few mistakes along the way. Yesterday I discovered what I believe to me my biggest mistake of all so far. I'm really embarrassed to admit this but I have to find how how much harm I've done to my plants, so here we...

I have some plants growing in pots outside and I recently read on this site that after you water an outdoor plant, there shoud be a run off in the tray below the pot of 16 to 20%. Do you agree? That seems like too much watering to me. I keep watering a plant until the sightest bit of moisture...

One of my outdoor plants had definitely outgrown the 5 gallon pot it was in, but the plant just began flowering. So instead of taking the risk of causing great stress to my plant by transplanting, I carefully cut the bottom out of the 5 gallon pot and placed it in a 10 gallon pot. I believe in...

I read in a post on this site that there should be a 16 to 20% run off in the tray below my pot after I water a plant. Do you agree? That seems like too much water for a plant to me. I keep watering a plant until the slightest bit of moisture can be seen in the tray below the pot, and then I...

I've got my first crop growing inside right now and I've heard that you can make your determination when to harvest by what percent of the hairs have turned from white to red. I've also read that you should wait until at least 50% of the hairs have turned red to harvest. I know all about...

I'm growing 2 plants in pots outside. I did have three but my plants just started flowering yesterday, and today I discovered a male, and of course I had to get rid of it. I only had two 10 ten gallon pots at the start with my other pots all being 5 gallons or less. So like a fool trying to...

Well, I guess most of you have heard the bad news. Yes, Big Brother is at it again. Yesterday in the Seattle area federal agents and local law enforcement executed a volley of raids on 14 local medical marijuana dispensaries, handcuffing the proprietors and taking them away in squad cars, with...

I am a first time grower. I have 3 pure sativa plants growing outside. If I allow the plants to run their normal course in growing outside, they will not be ready to harvest until the last week of October or the first week of November. I live north of Seattle, and the weather in October and...

I have 3 plants of a pure sativa strain growing outside. One is growing in a five gallon pot, one in a 7 gallon pot, and one in a 10 gallon pot. The one in the five gallon pot has been wilting and then returning to normal off and on for the last 4 days, the one in the 7 gallon pot just started...

I've heard that low temperatures at night below 60 degrees begin to lessen the quality and slow down the growth of marijuana. I've also heard that temperatures in the mid fifties will cause mild shock to a plant, and that consistent temperatures in the forties will do great harm to my plants...

I started blooming 8 plants five days ago. I topped 7 of the eight plants two days before transplanting and putting them in the bloom chamber of my grow cabinet, and they're all doing fine, but unfortunately I somehow missed topping one plant two days before starting to bloom. I discovered my...

A friend of mine recently told me that it's impossible to grow top quality marijuana using LED lighting in a grow cabinet. I purchased a grow cabinet with expensive LED lighting about a week before he told me the bad news. God, I sure hope he's wrong. Is it possible to grow really high grade...

I just puchased a grow cabinet with LED lighting. I've heard some people say that you need HID lighting to grow really high quality medical marijuana. I sure hope I didn't make a mistake getting the LED. Can I grow top quality medical marijuana using LED lighting? Please, someone, give me...

I'm about to take clones from my plants for the first time, and I want to make sure that they have the best possible chance of succeeding. I've heard that putting clones in a dark place the first 12 to 24 hours after cutting them will increase my chances of having a favorable outcome. Is this...

bongsmilie To begin with, I hope this is the proper forum for asking my question? I've been growing some plants inside for 3 weeks in the vegetative growth stage for 24 hours a day in light to strengthen them before I transfer them outside. Can going from 24 hours light inside to 15 hours light...
