Been about 2 weeks now, these are from the same packet - Magic Bud from Paradise Seeds. I dunno wtf is going on with this stupid looking one, any ideas? The seed was pretty small compared to the rest. Should I keep it going or throw out?

New Grower, SE Queensland, grew some great heads, now drying...In the bottom of my drying container (only used for this grow), I've found say, 30 seeds......but, these were heads! where did the seeds come from? Don't the heads have to get with a male (ie be fertilized) before they produce seed? I had one male, but pulled him out as soon as his sex was evident, and the ladies did not appear to have anything to fertilize at that stage. If there is such a thing as seed produced from unfertilized ladies, and if so, will they sprout next season?

Hi all Due to circumstances beyond my control I had to leave my 2 girls under a 125W cfl each for longer than usual. This time they were under it for 6 weeks and in cramped conditions. They are lanky (thin skinny branches) stretching for the light with large internodal gaps. Only now can I put them under a 600HPS each to finish off the veg stage, but what can I do to transform them back to half decent plants? Will any of the cropping techniques remedy this i.e super cropping, topping etc. I always use LST anyway, bending the main stalk at about 2-3 weeks of veg and grow them parallel to the pot, but I am going to need something else to take this stretched lanky pro…

due to visitors I had to move my plants from indoors to outside. Plants are 5 weeks into flower and they are not in completely in the dark. They are under a makeshift lean-to which during thwarted day will let in a little light. Do ya's rekon they may hermie? At the very least I rekon they will take much longer to finnish. They have been outside for 5 days and 4 nites.

Hey everyone, one of my plants is looking real unwell. Some branches look fine. others look real yellow and droopy and some just look plain dead I think the plants savable but i dont know weather or not to just chop those dead looking branches and focus on the remaining healthy ones or weather to keep them incase they are savable. Think it was a combination of root bound/root rot and over fertilisation. Iv put it in a bigger pot and flushed it and this is what it looks like atm Any answers as to weather i should chop those sick looking branches off or not would be heaps helpful. thanks f d l

Hi, Ive got a problem with my indoor plants, im growing them in clay balls using cyco nutrients under 400w hps lights. Everything is as it should be ph is 5.8 and cf is about 20.They are 6 weeks old. Cycle is 18 on 6 off, water 15 min on 45 off Trouble is only 2 out of my eight plants did any good, the rest have wilted and pretty much died and never got bigger than 4 inches. I pulled one out and it had a very small rootball, very brown in colour. My nutrient temp is always high during the early stages but i cant help that and it always drops once a bit of a canopy forms.....any ideas would be appreciated.

My plants have been going great for the last couple weeks of flowering, all except one. The leaves are becoming dry, curling and hanging limp from the stems. I thought it could be a few things; over fertilization, rootbound, nutrient lockout or rootrot now i know a few of those are similar problems so I tried transplanting it. However it hasnt really improved at all, infact it looks like its getting worse. Here are some details about how iv grown it. Indoor/Outdoor: outdoor Growing Medium: soil Growing Style: bit of trimming here and there but nothing major Watering/Feeding Frequency: feeding every 3 or so days Nutrient Strength (PPM/EC):feeding with monsta buds and li…

If. in my laziness, ive missed a relevent topic please forgive me but what I need to know if anyone who owns an Indoor Elements Grow tent witha mylar interior (purchased from DHS on ebay) has identified gassing problems? Ive looked thru ICMag on signs/symptoms of gassing manifesting in grows and it really looks like what Im experiencing, i.e. what looks like nutri4nt burn one day, seems to be under feeding the next, or PH lock out or any other miriad of problems. Its got me stuffed. Anyone with experience of it (or not too) please let me know... Cal

Hi, Yesterday I pulled the first plant of the season. I trimmed it and put it on a screen to dry. Today I checked it and found grey mould on two of the buds. There was no mould on it when I trimmed it, well not that I seen. So the mould has attacked the buds after it was pulled! I have moved it to a better location to dry and I'll keep a sharp eye out for mould now. I removed the affected bits and cut the buds up smaller. There is a lot of rain about so should I treat the remaining plants e.g. with a spray of fungicide or potash? Pic shows three buds with two having mould. Bigrat
