    Flowering in 24/0?

    I had my plants in 24/0 light cycle for the better part of 4 months. They grew pretty well and healthy. A month ago I noticed they were shooting out their calyxes, so I posted here to ask if they might be flowering themselves. I was advised that they're fine, and some preflowers are ok. So I...

    To flower, or to clone and flower?

    Alright, so I have 6 plants that are all huge and super healthy and have their 'I'm ready to produce bud' little white spears on them in veg (24 hour light.) I have clones of all of them in my flower chamber in an effort to sex them. I just got the chamber completed a few days ago, I should...

    How long should flower take?

    I have a complete veg chamber with inanely healthy huge plants. I took clones of them four weeks ago, which stabilized two weeks ago, and I have been putting them in a tupperware tub every night for 12 hours to sex them (while I construct my bloom room.) They still have not produced sex...

    Busts: can they weigh the soil?

    I have read many people speculate that law enforcement will often weigh the soil and pots during a bust. Scanning google I can't fin anything that actually says either way. Does anyone have evidence suggesting either way?

    Autoflower?

    My plants have been in veg for a very long time. I've just been growing them, I was under the impression they could stay in veg as long as I wanted (I mean mother plants do, right?) I have noticed all of my plants on 24/0 light cycle are starting to get hairs on them as though they are...

    Pumped up and ready to spray

    Hey rollitup, I'm a well dug soil grower taking my first swing at hydro. Doing ebb and grow. Have a few questions. How frequently should I dump the reservoir? Should I feed for a week then flush for a week? How does this schedule change as the grow develops? What kind of...

    How close to harvest?

    How long does it typically take to reach 75% red hairs from the point when red hairs begin to occur? My girls started showing red hairs about 8 days ago so I started flushing to prepare for harvest, and am just wondering how long I should expect until it's choppy choppy time.

    To chop, or not to chop?

    I have two plants in the 6th week of flower. They are my only survivors from my very first grow, my pioneers. They have undergone a fair amount of stress, that is to say I failed learning to clone on them, a big power outage, learning all about lights and disaster...the first grow has been a...

    Flowering issue.

    I have two female plants currently in the third week of flowering. They are both the same strain, they were both planted on the same day, have been watered on all of the same days, under the exact same lights, moved to flower at same time, were transplanted at same time, etc etc etc. The only...

    Co2 hookup

    Alright I just got my new dual meter co2 tank valve in the mail. Awesome, right? I procede to set up tubing around the rim of my hps light so the co2 would shower down on my plants when the timer is on. When the co2 is on, the vents are off. I used an exacto knife and just cut slits in my...

    Mixing Nutes, is it ok?

    Is it always ok to mix nutes? I know advanced nutrients brand products come in separate bottles but can then be mixed in water if added correctly. What about cross brands? For instance... Could I mix tiger bloom and kool bloom in the same solution without having any problems? How about...

    pH up/down, excessive amounts?

    So I use general hydroponics ph up and ph down. I've noticed that it takes what seems to be an excessive amount to manipulate the pH of my solutions. I'm worried that I'm taking my reading wrong and that I may be killing my plants? I was using a copper/aluminum meter from lowes, and now I...

    Problems w/ pH meter

    Hey there again rollitupers... I've been using a meter based ph/light/moisture multimeter I got from lowes for around $5 for the last month or two. It's pretty unreliable, so I got a new digital pH meter recently. My new digital pH meter is also pretty eratic. I have to recalibrate it...

    co2 tank questions

    I'm working on getting a co2 tank for my room. Currently I'm using the ole' sugar and yeast co2 production but plan to upgrade to a tank and valve asap. So, my question is how big of a co2 tank do I need for a 6x6 room? Do I need some specific kind of valve? I'm kind of out in the dark...

    Fall of the Clones, please help!

    Magnesium def., recommend some nutes please?

    I have determined that my plants have a magnesium deficiency. The ower leaves brown/yellow and curn at the tips and smaller lower leaves just wilt and die outright. The top of the plant is pretty healthy, though. Could someone recommend a good plant food with magnesium for me? My plants are...

    When to clone?

    My four babies are about a week or two until they're ready to flower. I don't know their sexes yet. When should I clone? My understanding is that I should cut my clones right as I roll their light schedule over and label them so I know which clone is from which parent, then when they sex two...

    Browning and curling leaves.

    First off, this 'newbie central' thread is off the hook. Three pages of posts since this morning, I can't possibly find my last thread. Is there an option to route back to threads I've already created? Ok, so I posted a few days ago about my plants. Here are the facts again. This is my...
