    5 weeks in flower

    Here are some better pics. I have nute burn apparently. I found my town water was 7.6 ph. I've been correcting the water for about 4 weeks now

    5 weeks in flower

    This is Alice, my first grown. She is a Strawberry Kush. My question is about all the small buds. Would growth go to main colas if I pinched off some of these smaller buds? Common Sense gardening tells me it would. I'm concerned about bud growth, seems very slow, and buds are still small. Feed...

    Old newbie, too. Ask away. I'm on my first grow in a state that is unfriendly too. I grow for my needs medically. There is a lot to take in, but its best to start and learn as you go. People here are very giving with their experience. I grow in 2 small closets, use LED's for less heat, and I...

    300w LED-Grow

    I run 2 leds, 300 watts and 800 watts. Very little heat, and they all have internal fans. They are considerably cheaper to run.

    Nirvana

    I want to let all the newbies out there the customer care I received from Nirvana. I bought several strains from them, all but one strain sprouted. I let them know about it, and discussed how I prepared the seeds. A few days later I have an email giving me a $15 voucher. I didn't expect that...

    Loss of light

    I have 2 plants in flower, and 3 in veg with a one or two weeks to go. Lost power Wed in a storm. Got power back this morning. When it happened I moved all plants in front of the big picture window in the living room. Will this one day of limited light cause problems with the flowering plants...

    Any time. Email if you need to, I'll step you through anything. I'm on disability myself, 9 screws and 2 rods, 2 major back surgeries. I'm allergic to opiates and I started for pain relief. Pot is so much better for pain than any prescription drug. And I have been studying everything I can find...

    DiY LEDs - How to Power Them

    It sounds as though you have them in series. Need to add a zener to every driver that will keep the system working should one led driver fail.

    Give them a try. I will at some point. From my expected mistakes it was nice to have the option of giving a little more time vegging. Maybe even try both and see how it goes. Actually I think just the feminized seeds are more forgiving. You choose when your plant goes into budding. I've seen...

    This is a Strawberry Kush just beginning to bud. All those nice light colored buds have turned into colas. I cropped her twice, and the plant is roughly 30" tall now. You see the brown edges on a few leaves? That was nute burn. My ph was 7.5.

    How many lumens is too much?

    Your plants will tell you if you are giving them too much. Leaves on top will begin to turn white. Just increase the distance from the plant. I'd highly recommend an LED. They produce little heat, and save money on electric. $160 for a King Plus 1000 watt, $145 for 800 watt. LED made everything...

    Is there any good nutes from home depot?

    You can buy any on Amazon. Fox Farm has their 3 nute package for $45 US. I'd highly recommend them.

    advice on getting the most outta my first serious grow. day 22 into flowering.

    Looks great. Probably will need to prop up the buds hanging over the edge, but looks good

    Myself, I wouldn't worry about autoflower. I've found it very easy to into flower. Another reason I wouldn't is there are conditions as a first grower where you can stunt growths, light too far away, over watering a variety of reasons. With just feminized seeds you can give them more time, or...

    I hate to hear these stories. Just lost my little guy to diabetes. We love them so much, its like losing a human member of our families. Okay, What seeds are you looking to grow the first time?

    Welcome New Members!

    The first is one of the Strawberry Kush (I highly recommend it, very easy for a first timer, and its small but prolific. I have 8 colas sprouting on one). Second is another Strawberry Kush the buds are starting to grow. The third is my veg closet. I have a couple of clones from the Strawberry...
