Mystery seeds, arent they fun. Friend of mine gave me a few seeds that he found in a dresser of his at his moms house that he had forgotten about. Germinated both seeds in Rockwool. The seedlings were approximately the same size when they were finally potted on 4/21 and 4/24. Grown since then nestled between some of my white widows under 1000w mh continous, im not running anything exotic, room is usually 78-81f, and right about 30-31% humidity, normal soil mixture, little perlite, little potting soil, worm stuff, nothing major Aaren just took off. The growth on right plant, Bailey, is about what I expected, Aaren, on the other hand has me a little excited. The …

ok, so i want to grow indoors this year for the first time. only problem is i have parents who will kick my ass if they find out. so what would be a good idea to put it in? also i have a lamp but it probably wont work. what kind of lighting would work best for, like, 1 or 2 plants? i have a couple of good seeds and i can easily germinate them. got any tips or anything that would be useful to me? as i said this is FIRST time growing. i also started about 3 plants outdoors about 1 week ago, the problem is i cant tell if they are weed sprouts or just a weed in general. what are some signs of knowing what it is. its about 3 cm tall and has a purple stem with little white fu…

Hi all, Luckily I'm still here to write this as I was electrocuted last night in my flower room. Now I have always listened to the warnings that everyone so sensibly gives about raising ballasts etc off the floor, and checking connections but my 240v of love came from my res tank's heater exploding under water and delivering the current through 100l of nutes. All my tools are plastic so when I was checking the PPM & PH nothing happened - even my stirring paddle for mixing is plastic. But then I noticed on my Ph pen that the temp of the water was 18C - not the 24C it should be....??? So I reached in to feel whether the heater was warm and WHAM! I went flyin…

I'm a bit confused. While that's nothing new, I'm confused about a growing question as well I've read somewhere in here, that people put their seedlings straight into 12/12/ conditions. While that sounds reasonable to me, I read somewhere else, that putting a plant to 12/12 before pre-flowering can cause hermies. It was explained that the plant thinks it is "missing out" on some pollen and causes it to become a hermie so it can self polinate if necessary. To me that sounds perfectly reasonable as well. So what's the story? 12/12 before pre-flower or not? Or does a seedling not care if it doesn't know any other state than 12/12? AK

Evening all y'all. Feelin' really fat after a big dinner with Mom so I'll probably be short Just thought I'd let you know that there's a great way to sketch out the basic details of a grow cupboard / room / warehouse, would be interested to see if anyone else had seen this. I heartily apologise if this sounds like an ad. It's not in any way shape or form. HONEST .. . . anyway It's a free prog by google called sketchup. found it the other week, and after an hour of picking it up I had got the hang of the basics. There are limitations - Curly vent duct, pipes and leads I havn't sussed yet, but layout for lights/plants etc it BRILLLLLLLL. You can see snags …

Ok, I just got a confirmation of dates and will be going away for 4 days in the near future. What I want, or need to work out is, if plants are not watered for 4 days, or given a big drink and left for 4 days, will it cause any problems? If it will, would it be ok to set up a slow drip feed system so they get water while I'm away? I have some time up my sleeve to get this sorted so I'm not stressing too much at this point in time. Cheers all. ~Rose.

Grow Guide For Dummies

Hey guys. Im a real newbie when it comes to growing and was going to buy some seeds for my own stash because its so dry out here in Perth but i really have no idea, usually when i buy, it comes straight from the bag, and into my grinder. I have no idea what happens to it before then. What im looking for is a grow guide that will help me through growing and curing, but also the steps taken after to the smallest detail, what parts of the plant to i use and that kind of thing. almost like a 'Growing Weed For Dummies' book? if anybody knows where i can get something like that i would REALLY appreciate it.

Hey guys. I picked up a q recently that had some seeds in it, and I was thinking of tyring a bag seed grow with them once summer starts. Anyway, I was wandering what size a normal cannabis seed should be? These things are tiny- perhaps 2 x 3mm at the most. Approximately the size of a sesame seed for reference. Are they too small/underdeveloped? Normally I would just try and germ one myself to see if they worked, but I've only got a few and was hoping to plant as many as possible so I don't want to waste any.

So i have a grow diary called Morningstar if you want to check it out (plz do!). So heres the deal. This is day 40, about 5.5 almost 6 weeks and im starting to get powdery mildew on some leaves. Im getting worried about it spreading and kind of wanting to harvest it now to avoid losing some of the crop. Its been getting nutes up to today even. Does it look done or harvestable to you guys? 6 weeks seems really soon, but i guess its possible right (some strains are 6 weeks?)? What do you think, and should i the amount of flush days if so? thanks a lot! By the way, this is 3 days ago, so there has been some slight maturing since. Some buds have almost 100% orange hairs, ot…

Hi everybody, I'm new here, I have grown cannabis many times but this is the first time i've seen something like that...on the leaves and buds of my shiva female, at the end of flowering , there were huge drops of transparent, stisky goo, randomly disperced throughout the plant. If burned the goo smells like burned goo, nothing like resin. I have harvested the plant and it is drying but the goo is very strange, like resin from a pine tree only completly transparent and relativly soft. Has anybody seen anything like it again?

This is probably a dumb question but I shall ask anyway in the hope someone who is knowledgeable can answer and thanks in advance to the person who does that for me. I currently am underway with 7 delightful looking outdoor stinkers. The seeds I have used are from a mixed bag I have collected over some time so hopefully I get a few nice females and the smoke is of good quality as all are doing well and looking fantastic. What I wish to know is if I decide to keep a male and separate it from the females and let it mature will the seeds I get from it be all male,hermaphrodite, or both female and male. Thanks to anybody who can help with this answer as I have always wondered…

Hi all Most of my grows have been 8 - 9 week flowering cycles. (Indica i would think) The stretching stage i have experienced with this strain slows down to a slow crawl around the end of week 4 into week 5. and then just fattens up from there. After my last grow going for 12 weeks and could have gone for more. (that would be sativa yea?) What have you experienced with this strain with stretching? Does it ever bloody stop / slow down? What week have people noticed that it slows down? I need to know this to give me a better indication of how much head room i have now and how much more i will need later. Training it around is much easier now than later. but if i…
