I wonder what would happen if you just filled your res with grape soda a few hours before you chopped 'em. Seriously. I do. I'm not saying that I'm suggesting it, but the thread has me curious - now I can't help wondering if that would work, or what would happen.

"Who? Me? You're kidding. Why would you ever think that? I'm shocked and offended!" Out of curiosity, how do the utilities work there? Is your electric bill in your name only, or does the owner have some way of knowing what someone's power usage is (aside from just checking the meters himself.)...

Well, I at least partially take back what I said earlier about this not being about your grow. Could be he somehow got wind of the grow, and hired a PI to investigate it rather than invite the police to come and destroy his doors. Either way, sounds like you're clean now, and the owner spent a...

I've read the entire thread, but if the answer to my question is in there then I was probably too dense to recognize it. Nevertheless, this seems to be the appropriate thread to ask the question. Using a luxmeter, is there a way to determine whether an HPS bulb is failing? For example, if a I...

Holy fucking christ on a crutch, you must have provided jobs for half the county at trimming time!

Yeah, the plants look healthy enough overall that once you get them flushed and on the right track, they should bounce back pretty nicely.

Just hit the "like" button at the bottom right of the post you're repping!

Oh, good, that's relatively soft water. That's to your advantage. You get up in the couple hundred ppms, and that's usually mostly calcium, so your soup is sometimes on the verge of locking out mag as soon as you start throwing in the calmag and before you even get to the Epsom. I still think...

Good for you. I like that attitude, bro. We had a major crisis in one of our grows a few months ago, and the plants were in very bad shape for almost an entire day before I got them under control. I told my wife that night, "I didn't want to stress you out at the time, and I don't mean to be...

Yes, definitely - and especially with young plants. Older, larger plants with lots of leaf surface and root systems can guzzle it down like a sailor on Saturday night, but younger plants can take days for the growing medium to dry out. And you can easily lose a young plant by that time. You can...

Sleep easy. I concur that most of what we're seeing can probably be chalked up to transplant shock. That can be hard on the root system, and it can take a few days for a young plant with a baby root system to recover and regrow the roots to the point where they can handle even relatively strong...

What are you using for nutes? Type of nutes, strength, etc. How often are you watering, how often are you feeding? It looks like a nute problem, but it also looks like a nute problem that can be readily easily corrected. How old, how long from seedling? Trying to get a feel for what the root...

Overall, the plants doesn't look bad, although they are awfully small for almost 6 weeks. That could be explained by a number of things, especially if you repotted from coco to soil partway through. But given the pictures, and everything you're describing, I'm suspicious about magnesium...

I love the widow; it's probably my favorite strain to grow. Few buds are prettier than a widow in full frost. I'm growing some white rhino now for the first time, and just flipped the lights a week and a half ago. I'm looking forward to seeing if they go all diamond-dust like the white widow.

From what you're saying, this is all pretty damned strange, but whatever it is it doesn't have anything to do with your grow. First of all, police do occasionally hire private investigators to gather evidence, because PIs are not bound by the same legal restrictions as sworn police officers...

Yeah, I would not do it. First, in my experience it's never once been necessary, and I've done this more times than I can count over the last 30-odd years. Second, as Raymont points out, it's more likely to make things harder for your plant than easier - by the time it's reached a point where...

I'm new to coco, and only a few weeks in, so take this for what it's worth - but I'm really happy so far with Canna Coco. My biggest complaint is that I'm doing a SOG, and I have to feed at about half the recommended strength in veg to keep the plants from exploding through the roof of the...

You're going to go to hell, and when you get there you'll be ashamed to admit to everyone that you're there because you dipped a bud in a cup of grape soda. How do you think that's going to feel, Mr. Smart Guy?

How many plants, and how far you moving them? Any way you can box them up during the dark period? Put them in the boxes during the light period, leave the boxes open, then just close them up and tape them shut at lights out. Move 'em to their new home, and 12 hours later take them out of the...

Most strains will handle that with no problem at all, but you do want to be conscious of your humidity level. If the relative humidity is high, and the temps drop down around 60 at night, you could get moisture condensing on the plants, which is an open invitation to mildew and other fun things...
