    flowering nute question....

    The yellowing at the base of the plant is likely N deficiency. The dying tips and the spotting is likely K. Check you water, check you ph, flush, and then feed. The FF Trio and Jack's Classic are both great. I've been doing JC with FF Big Bloom because the JC is 10-30-20 as opposed to Tiger...

    Can I use my males

    Intentionally create a hermie!?! WTF!! Possibly the most ridiculous crock of shit posted.

    Can I use my males

    Females produce seeds, males only produce pollen. Use your males to practice topping, supercropping, and to experiment with nutes and shit like that.

    If you mean CFL bulbs then yes. Get the highest wattage you can @ 6500K aka Daylight; I think this is referred to as light color or light temperature. Get Potting Soil, get good quality, no miracle grow. Start in party cups or something much smaller than the double gulp to help form a nice...

    Localized yellowing, curling, rust spots, dying!

    Flushing is absolutely the way to go but don't forget to check your water. Hard water with high TDS (total disolved solids) is often the real problem and the deficiency you see is the secondary problem. The real kicker is that if you don't check the water and it is hard or somehow not good for...

    Need some help with a transplant

    ...and I co-sign the Fox Farm Ocean Forest mentioned earlier with 1/3 pelite. Try to keep the top 3 inches or so of your soil free of Perlite because when it's in the top layer it just ends up floating on top when you water and it's of no use on top of the soil.

    Need some help with a transplant

    Kind of...Your nutes are flower nutes. Hold off on those for now and get something for veg. Resume those nutes when she flowers. You could also continue those nutes and supplement with something with organic N, GOOGLE fish emulsion. Hold off on nutes for a few days after the transplant, maybe 2...

    You can flower a plant when it's a 1 - 1.5 ft tall, plants can hit this height somewhere between 4 & 8 wks, depends on your strain and conditions. Where you live and when the temperature will stay in at least the upper 50s perferably 60s at night is something else you need to know to find you...

    Need some help with a transplant

    I would upgrade to 400 watt hps. If your plants are 8wks old and only a foot tall you can get away with 3 gallon pots, 5 gallon would be over kill and a waste of soil. You'll have to get more soil to fill the pot, try to upgrade to at the very least Scott's. Fill the new pots with soil leaving a...

    Nutrients

    Feed with every other watering throughout the grow starting at 5 wks old. Start at 1/4 strenght and move up to 1/2 strenght. Transition nuts at the first sign of flowering. Flush periodically; flush and stop nutes with 2 wks til chop.

    does soil go bad?

    As long as it's kept dry potting soil can last years.

    I cant get rid of bugs...

    You could try tobacco juice; add some vegetable oil as a wetting agent and to maximize the impact. Cheap, organic, and effective.

    What is WRONG with this ?

    How close are you lights?? Seems that you have too much light too close, invest in a few cfl bulds and bring back the HPS later in the grow. Don't toss anything yet, if the new groth continues to show problems over the next 10 days or so then toss and start over. The blob plant may just be the...

    Heat stress? Nute stress? Days of research and still clueless. Have a look

    Your set up sounds fine and those pics could be interpreted several different ways. Do the flush so u can see if it is nute burn or not. If not, hopefully by then u get symptoms that point to the problem more clearly. Heat stress usually affects from the top down, in the pic with the most...

    Best Way to Germinate

    Why waste money on jiffy pellets and germ kits?? Why put a seed directly in soil and hope that it sprouts?? Damp paper towel, ziplock plastic bag, warm surface, and 2-3 days later you can plant the viable seeds and toss the bad ones. This grow I'm 6 for 6 with the under-estimated, so called...

    Adding Nutrients to Soil

    Usually wk 5 is when you should introduce nutes. The soil should be enough to sustain the plant til then. To me the 2nd and 4th pics look a li funny. Try to make sure there's nothing stressing the plant. You dont want to confuse that stress with nute deficiency.

    first grow. outdoors

    You should go 2 - 3 feet apart if planting in ground. You don't know how big they'll get so play it safe and give plenty of room. Don't worry about the males. You'll be able to identify them way before they have a chance of pollenating the females. One day you'll find these little green...
