    Ist Time Auto Flower

    Been busy with the Kentucky Derby Party last week and catching up at work (a client is really breathing hard down my neck but that's better than no client's at all) but have a few moments to share some updates. My two autos are definitely in flower; by doing some additional research and...

    Ist Time Auto Flower

    One other picture- the three plants together: I trimmed off the yellow leaves after I took these pictures. I am having a big outdoor party next weekend (don't worry, I will be hiding the plants) and afterwards I'm pulling up the lilies so I can a little less sun competition for the plants.

    My Aerogarden set up has been acting up- the plants weren't growing so I moved them outside today. Here are some updated pictures: Lemon Haze Day 43 Blue Dream Day 43 I'm only getting a little growth since last week; are these plants flowering or would you call this a pre-flowering...

    New Kind of Pro Mix - is this any good for short season outdoors?

    Those are the nutes I use. I would recommend a LONG transition from Veg to Flower after your plants start flowering; I have done a two and then three transitional feedings (50% veg, 50% flower) the past two years and I still end up with a N deficiency and lots of yellowing leaves a few weeks...

    New Kind of Pro Mix - is this any good for short season outdoors?

    I have used the ProMix BX with good results the past 3-4 years in conjunction with Botanicare Nutrients. I have not used any kind of mix with time release nutrients (like Scotts or other commercial potting soil); I have seen many postings stating to NOT USE a soil with time released fertilizers...

    Ist Time Auto Flower

    Trying to upload new pictures, not coming through right now. Now I have six plants going- I germinated a Charlotta seed as well as one I got from my sister last year from a bag she called "Crazy". Crazy germinated and grew quickly- I had to move it outside after three weeks in the Aerogarden...

    Ist Time Auto Flower

    A few quick notes about "my situation": Since I live in the epicenter of the Vast Rightwing Conspiracy discretion is certainly needed for my grow. My yard has a large tree canopy- by looking at my house from satellite images one can see my yard is about 90% shaded in the summer. I have one...

    Getting ready for outdoor grow 2016

    I doing my first auto grow & have seen should only transplant once. I started my two plants in a hydroponic germinator (Aerogarden); today I transplanted each into a one quart container like I have done with previous crops; then I usually repot into a 7-10 gallon container in five weeks. Should...

    Ist Time Auto Flower

    Well, it's my first time intentionally growing autos. Last year I sprouted a seed that my friend Charlotta gave me- that guy popped in 3 days, within a week it looked like a plant on crack, after 3 weeks I had to transplant it outdoors where it took off like gangbusters. It grew about 2 foot...

    Rainy Season Harvest Time

    Rain is killing me, another 2-3 inches forecast the next two days then finally (hopefully) sunshine. The plants are really stooped over- I tied up the branches a few weeks back so the aren't breaking from the main stalk they are straining from where I have tied them to my support poles. I will...

    Rainy Season Harvest Time

    Thanks for the input y'all. The sun is peaking out a bit and I might be able to get some good close-ups of the buds to post this weekend; two of the plants are real scraggly (I messed up the nutes 2 months back and lost a lot of foliage) so I won't post pics of the plants, just the buds. The...

    Rainy Season Harvest Time

    I have three plants nearing harvest (one indica, two sativa)- each have been flowering around 70 days. In my area we have been having steady rain the past few days and it is forecast to continue with light rain daily for another week. With the overcast skies it is hard to get a good look at the...

    Yellowing nute def during flower

    Had to go check- the other two numbers that show the fertilizer's chemical composition are P (for Phosphorus) and K (for Potassium). Nitrogen is vital during the vegetative stage; Potassium for the flowering stage. If you use one fertilizer in the growth stage and a different one in flowering...

    Yellowing nute def during flower

    I get the same every year with my outdoor crop. By process of elimination, it looks like a Nitrogen nute deficiency. Someone once posted "Add more Nitrogen" but didn't say how. Maybe find a nute with a higher Nitrogen (first number on the label) while keeping the other two "numbers" the same as...
