General Cultivation Q&A

Hi one of my plants has some nice big chucky buds on them, and i would say it is very close to harvesting it. my query is this the crown buds are say 6 inches long, and just one or two inches below the crown on the same stem is a couple of nice nugs growing up towrds the crown. these little nugs are no way as thick as the big crown, but they seem to have more smell and crystals and glistning than the crown. So im wondering do buds mature from the bottom of the plant first and workl their way up to the top thanks Jason

Hi everyone, I thought everyone may like to share with us their most obscure additives that they've used or heard about and maybe whether they got any results from em. Atm i'm drinkin this beer called "Little Creatures" and it tastes so good I actually considered adding some to the resi :: I havn't yet but maybe tomorrow. My girls are 4th week of bloom. Has anyone else added somethin funny to their resi? Please share results...

Hi, I am almost finished setting up my NFT tables for th next grow and im now hooking up the pumps and the water lines to each gutter. Is thre anything i should know. I am just using clear tubing (13mm) from the pump in th resvoir to each gutter with two water lines per gutter in case of blockages. And obviously th end of th 13mm clear tub will be capped off. Seems ok to me as long as the flow of water/nutes is correct all should be cool. Will this work?

Hey all! New here and need some help. I put 12 Bubblegum seedlings in my hydro drip system 7 days ago and not seeing much growth. I was told they were about 2 weeks old when I got them. The roots were about 1" long on each plant when I put them in the Hydrton expanded clay pellets. Some were longer. I have a 28 gal reservoir that I filled with ph'd well water and added 1/4 strength nutes. I use a two part nute called Grow A and Grow B. It says on the bottle to mix 4ml to 1 L. The feeding program I have is from the Hydro store I got the nutes from as it is based on the nutes I have. I also added 100 ml of 3% hydrogen peroxide to the tank. I turned on the MAG Drive 1200 GPH…

Hey, I need some help with my seedlings. I planted three seeds into a small pot and only one was fully germinated at the time. Although only one was germinated, TWO, sprouted up. They are literally right next to eachother. Is this a problem? Will they eventually choke eachother to death? My second question is, how long do I have to wait until the marijuana type is identifyable. (White Widdow, etc.)? Thankx for the help! Chile99
