Theres one thing you should know about LED grow lights: They suck. Dont waste your time. Buy a halide for veg and an HPS for flower. The $20 HPS deal just ended, but I'm sure there are other cheap ones around.

No problem. Yeah, depending on where your water comes from, theres no real way to guess your Ph. I was using faucet water on my plants before seeing similar issues on my leaves. I got a meter, and my tap water is 8.2!!! So now I have to correct it when I water (kind of a pain, lol). But...

During the first 2 weeks or so of flowering, the plant will go through the "stretch phase." This means that most of its growth during this time is vertical. After 2-3 weeks, the vertical growth will level out and the plant will just grow nugget. If your plant has become too tall for your area...

Depends on how many clones you take, and where you take them from. If I top a plant to have two main branches, I take the top two branches as clones, and let the mother veg for a little longer and it'll have multiple colas. But if I have a plant thats already been topped, and is shaped the way I...

I got a 250w metal halide that I dont need... Ill sell it for a good deal to ya. :D

Amazon.com sells digital pH testers for relatively cheap. You can also get the test strips or drops from lowes or HD. What water are you using? You can try switching to distilled water for a week and see if that helps things since you dont have a tester.

Minor spotting caused by a pH lockout. Either your pH is too high or too low would be my guess.

He's asking how long he has to wait before he flowers the MOTHER, not the clones. The clones can be flowered as soon as they root, but ideally you'd veg them for a few weeks. The mother can be flowered immediately. I usually put my plants into flower, and as soon as they show sex, I take my...

The $20 150 watt HPS lamp: https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/113223-skip-cfls-20-150w-complete.html?highlight=skip+cfl%27s I bought two of these. They put out VERY LITTLE heat when compared to any number of CFL's. I can get my plants up to 4 inches away from the bulb.

Youre only cutting off a tiny portion of the very top of the plant. You shouldnt be removing any more than a pinch of growth if youre topping. And the effects are SOO worth it.

Thanks a bunch! Yes, I could see why I would need to specify my medium now, I didnt realize semi-hydro was as prevalent. I will continue to water with pH corrected water, thanks!

My bad, I though that it would have been understood when i said i was watering... but yes... soil is my medium. :D

Yea id have to agree. Everything appears to be in order, and the plant looks healthy. anything above 40% humidity for veg is acceptable. For flowering, youll want to lower it to the 20-30 range. Now would be the time to top that plant though, which i strongly recommend doing.

This would be as effective as a flush?

Me too. You know how hard it is to get a fucking plant to grow on mars?! Its -200 degrees out at night! I mean, I like purple weed, but damn!

I was recently having some trouble with my plants, which I determined to be a pH issue after purchasing a digital pH meter. The water that comes out of my faucet is nearing 8. Upon realizing this, I began correcting my water with pH Down, bringing the water to 6.3-6.5 before using. Today, both...

Whats your humidity at?

Really, I dont even count. I dont harvest based on how long its been, so why keep track? I harvest when the plant is ready. A certain amount of days doesnt mean the plant is ready.

I count from when they show sex.

Its weird though... I dont know if I buy all the genetics bullshit. One company has White Skunk and says its genetics are White Widow and Super Skunk, and another has the same strain and lists the genetics as Trainwreck X Shiva. Another company has an "indica seed pack" and it comes with White...
