    Big Bud autoflower, 1st indoor grow.

    Unfortunately due to a medical treatment that I had to go through, this plant was neglected for a while. Still, it's alive, surprisingly. Although there was quite a bit of light burn, it's a trooper and kept on keeping on. I cut away all of the fan leaves since they were burnt. This is how she...

    Big Bud autoflower, 1st indoor grow.

    This was an enlightening comparison. The picture on the left was taken on November 1st. The picture on the right was taken on Veterans Day, November 11th. Growing pretty well I would say. Tomorrow it will be 3 weeks from seed.

    Big Bud autoflower, 1st indoor grow.

    She seems to be growing remarkably well! Cotyledons still haven't fallen off. I have given her her first feeding of the Mega Crop fertilizer (now that she is ready for it). The soil is still damp, so no need to water it yet. Probably not for a couple of days yet. I may use a fork to aerate the...

    Big Bud autoflower, 1st indoor grow.

    Okay, so this is how she looks now, after just plain old water, no nutrients added. From now on though, that will change. I will start with alternate watering/feeding as of today. Today was the first time that nutes should have been used. Cotyledons are dead and will fall off before long. The...

    White Widow Trichome report

    Try one of the advertisers on here. The Vault, might be a good place to start, they seem to be the most active of the advertisers. At least as far as seed companies go.

    How to get those bad ass Trichome pics with a cell phone?

    Honestly I thought all phones did that, as my iPhone is a 5... kinda old for a phone nowadays.

    Big Bud autoflower, 1st indoor grow.

    On with my grow journal So I checked on my plant yesterday morning and was surprised to find that the roots had already penetrated the pot at the very bottom of the pot!! Whether or not I wanted to, it was time to transplant. Following this discovery, I got busy. Unfortunately my phone died...

    Big Bud autoflower, 1st indoor grow.

    Oh no, you misunderstand what I was meaning. I INTENTIONALLY used too much nutrient. It was meant to test the GLN Mega Crop fertilizer that I won some back in August. I meant to do something that seems to be a common newbie mistake. Too much nutrient, too soon. So far it is a successful test of...

    How to get those bad ass Trichome pics with a cell phone?

    My iPhone zooms in enough to get a decent shot of the trichomes without any other attachment needed.

    How much did you harvest outside this year?

    My big bud is just a small seedling at this point. It is only 10 days old today. I will have to get back with you in about a month and a half- 2 months from now. It should be ready to harvest then.

    Big Bud autoflower, 1st indoor grow.

    Okay, so the leaf tips are a little yellow on the tips only. I guess that this means that Mega Crop has passed my first test. That of a new grower fertilizing too much, too soon. The seedling looks pretty healthy considering that I used about a cup of nutes in just a couple of days right about...

    Big Bud autoflower, 1st indoor grow.

    The cotyledons have started to yellow and there's just the barest hint of yellow on the leaf tips that I can see. It could also be the flash that I used.

    I Just Wanted To Say 'Thank You'

    Yeah I am another one that has reason to appreciate all the good help. Just not as eloquent as you!

    Big Bud autoflower, 1st indoor grow.

    I started just a single seed 1 week ago, using the cling film method in a "Cow Pot" ( pot formed from compressed, and composted cow manure @ the same size as a small plastic pot/ solo cup) and reusing soil from my outdoor container grow earlier this year. After the seed sprouted, I put it...

    New here, going to Colorado! Have some questions...

    One thing that you should pay attention to is the THC levels, not the price. It makes no sense to me, but the dispensaries don't sell/price according to THC levels, rather by how much the supplier asks for that particular strain. You can find a strain that is, say, 15%THC selling for more than a...

    Some questions for next years grow

    This is my "end of season" video and you can see why I say that a 5 gallon bucket is too small for growing pot plants.

    Some questions for next years grow

    Without knowing what the composition of the "native" soil is, it's kinda hard to say for sure. I would still suggest that you look at the "super soil " and adapt it to your particular situation as much as possible. You don't have to adhere to it verbatim, from what I have read, even Subcool...
