Having big problems with first grown - the girls are in flower - but the 400w hps seems to be drying out the leafs. Will they continue to flower if I pull em out of their cupboard onto the floor - they will not get any direct light but they will be only about 2ft away - is that enough light to keep em going??? Also what will happen if I give them fert with N in it - I gave them a high fert in PK but it stuffed em up .

I have put some Heavy Duty Fruity clones outside a couple of weeks ago .When I had a good look yesterday they alooked like they nwere starting to flower . Has anyone struck this problem before .? Do you think they revert back to VEG as the days warm and grow longer? I was going to use as mothers and not grow indoors at all in the hot summer mths.

http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o61/Shiva569row/DWCSmartvalve.jpg Hey fellas, Newby here still on my L's; trying to fill my head with info to start a grow. I've decided I want to do a DWC type grow incorporating a smartvalve for easy watering. I've attached a pic of an idea I have based on my limited knowledge. What I'm thinking of doing is using a container big enough to hold four net pots with air stones in the bottom. This will be fed via a reservoir. I want to use a smartvalve to regulate the water level. I am concerned if I just use a smartvalve when the water level falls to the bottom of the container the air stones will be just pumping air and have no …

We can all go out and buy ferts for our babies, and i've even written about Canna's new Bio (Orangic Ferts). But if you really want to save money and use what they were using in the 1800s then this is all you have to do. 1 Get yourself a 44gal drum. It can be steel or plastic, but must have a lid. 2. Either get a few pairs of pantyhose from the other half or buy them. 3. Now got out and get your hands on a bag of Horse, Cow, Chicken and Sheep manure. 4. Fill each pantyhose up with each manure and tie a knot and sting to it, and place them into the drum, and fill with water. 5. Everyday lift the strings and dunk. keep this up for about six weeks. Oh by the way…

Has anyone got any ideas? I have a month off work coming up soon and want to get away. At that time I will have 2 plants in veg 4 weeks old. I wanted to go away for 2 or 3 days, come back for a week then go again for 2 or 3 days. I am not keen on leaving any type of power source on. Is it possible to leave the plants in darkness for the 2 x 2 or 3 days without doing any damage. Does anyone have any suggestions which don't involve leaving power on, does anyone know how long they can stay in the dark for? Would I be better off going once for five days instead of hitting them with the 2 dark periods? Any help or info on this type of thing would be much appreciated. Regards …

The process is simple, and is adapted from a standard horticutlural technique known as "girdling" a plant. To girdle a plant, wait until it is in flower, but before it has started to produce the red hairs? characteristic of full maturity. Girdling works much better with Sativa plants than with Indica, because the blooming prattern of Sativa is continuous, whereas Indica tends to bloom in successive flushes. Using a very sharp, clean blade, simply cut in a full ring around the plants main stem about 12" above ground level. Make this cut a shallow one, severing just the out 1/8" or so of the plant stem. Make a second cut fully around the stem just below the first cut and…

I have a strain that i made. This is the second time i've growin it. First time i pulled up at 8 weeks. This time i was going for 9 weeks as i could tell it could go at least another week and i only pulled it up because of needed to empty the room. However, this time i'm at 8 weeks flower and i've noticed heaps more of those lil male banana things in the flowers. Not the balls that open up, just the banana things. And they are pollinating the flowers. I've noticed tiny seeds forming and more than usual dead hairs. I want to pull this girl asap but i don't wont to be smoking all the nutes. What's the minimum amount of days do ppl think you can flush for and still avoid any…
