    Guerrilla Guide

    For many years some friends would go and plant pot in between corn in irrigated field in center of large field at full moon and harvest at full moon. Sometimes they waited too long and farmer got his corn (along with all the pot) lol.

    Pro defoliation only!! Please no arguments.

    About 4 weeks into flower I trim lower bud offshoots and that's it! Consider that leaves (especially fan leaves) are the fuel and storehouse for your buds. Notice as the leaves turn light green as nitrogen etc. is used to really fatten up buds in last week before harvest. Also, any deficiencies...

    Hps or MH or LED?

    Don't know about kingbrite but if it's like alibaba no thanks. likely most done fine with alibaba but google em and see some of the horror stories (mainly unauthorized charges on credit/debit card). Also, claims of Cree CXB3590 (which is American made) and customers getting a China knockoff. Too...

    When to top plant?

    looks over watered to me...leaf cupping/twisting classic sign of overwater. Give em a break and throw a fan on em! Wow, does that soil you have there drain? Add some perlite next time for added drainage and promote easy root growth. i do see a little perlite...I use 1/3 perlite.

    Organic Growing Made Easy & Fox Farms Ocean Forest!

    I use Jobe's Organic as a base and add to it. I always use (and have for 20 years) used 1/3 perlite. Good drainage and rapid root growth makes good. Foxfarm sucks and don't use it! It is a scam to sell you expensive bottles of additives on a schedule that cost a small fortune and isn't even...

    Is it time to harvest?!?

    Only way to really see is buy a 40x loop (or close equivalent) and check trichomes for cloudy and amber. I like about 1/4 amber for extra energy, heady, more amber more couchlock and better for pain. Many times I have thought a plant was ready to harvest and trichomes hadn't turned and other...

    When to top plant?

    SWEET! You must have a high ceiling? 4' would be pushing it for me but I have a closet shelf to deal with and my light can't do closer than 17" without bleaching. Use 3-4 gal pot? Used to do the natural no cropping etc. but not practical with most led's lack of penetration.

    When to top plant?

    I used to be a no crop guy in late 90's (I was a purist). Many hybrids (not just sativas) easily can grow 5+ feet in 5 gal buckets. If ya got the room then great! But 5+ feet in a closet doesn't work and hard to get penetration to lower bud sites. Cropping barely shocks and I always see new...

    Hps or MH or LED?

    Rapid Led...Timber...Fluence All I use are LED now and grow killer buds in a closet with elastomeric paint on walls. Have to throw in a CFL 5000K and a shop light for heat! Even when 95 outside and door closed just above 80. Do have it vented into attic (passive). That big of space I would go...

    When to top plant?

    I top mine as soon as possible usually. I have found that 4 colas (cropping twice) works best for me in closet grow as can usually keep em under 4 feet by harvest. Each of the three shown have been cropped twice and one on left taller than I usually like but each will produce 4 colas. Oops, two...

    Having some problems with my 1st time grow.

    For lighting check out Rapid Led with Cree CBX3590 Cobs and I also use an AdvancedLed XTE-200 USA Made 5w CREE XT-E LEDs in closet with elastomeric paint. Also, dump the Ocean Forest Foxfarm crap! Get some good pre-mixed organic and add to it. Foxfarm is a scam so you have to buy all those...
