    Did these hermie?

    I never dealt with hermaphrodite plants before. Example A: This "girl?" stayed extremely small during the entire veg period. Somehow, Interested in why it wasn't growing, (nor dying) I kept it for flower. I didn't think much would happen, as i thought a small plant wouldn't be mature enough to...

    How Long Now?

    On average plants flower from around 8-10 weeks - nothing wrong with flowering for two months that's typical. Some strains go longer. The only way to tell if you are ready to chop is by looking at the trichomes. Trichomes are extremely tiny so you'll need a jewelers loupe, a microscope or an HD...

    LST project

    Been about another week or so. So she's been outside for a few weeks now. After showing signs of her sex, the move reverted her back into the vegetation stage. The days don't shorten enough for her to begin to flower until sometime later next month. Til' then I pray the weather holds up, as...

    LST project

    Just a quick update. A week hasn't changed her very much but she loves to be outside. No signs of sun damage nor pests bothering her. However, with the early weather, no signs of flowering just yet.

    LST project

    I started to LST a plant that got too tall, then I topped it. I thought I'd share my results with how she has turned out. First stage, she lost a few sets of fan leaves. I tied her and bent her down. She recovered, so I tied her down again. Now shes root bound. Her roots are so tight she can't...

    First grow. how to pinch or top a plant? (pics)

    You did what I did, common mistake. You waited too long to top your plants. If you topped now then yes, the bottom branches will bush out, HOWEVER... you will end up with what looks like a giant letter "Y". A Y plant is a lanky stick that cannot support the weight of the two new shoots that you...

    is it possible to veg for too long?

    If they can stretch 1.5x during flowering.. Does this mean i'm looking at a 4.5 ft plant by harvest? Where am i going to put it? xP There are at least another 2 months of veg outside before the seasons flip to fall. If they grow another 2 feet this summer, they would be around 7 feet by fall...

    is it possible to veg for too long?

    The girls have been vegging for 12 weeks now. I have been slacking on transplanting them outdoors. I now worry they are going to grow to be too massive. A common newbie mistake. They've reached a minimum height of 24inches, maximum height of 36inches (a whopping 3ft). Surprisingly, I suspect...

    Growing in rockwool problems

    1. Rockwool lacks basic nutrients - i suggest growing in a better hydroponics medium or using organic based potting soil. 2. Look into growing compost cannabis - it takes time, but rotted fruits and veggies provide an excellent organic substrate. 3. Scratch the all purpose miracle grow - most...

    SpringTails.. Pests?

    Basically they appear as tiny little white maggots that jump like fleas and burrow quickly into the soil when disturbed. Apparently they are the outcome of having a good soil culture going on, they disperse nitrogen and are beneficial to plants. I also read, however, that they produce larva...

    The MY FIRST / MOST COMMON MISTAKES Thread

    My input, and this ones a biggie: DO NOT underestimate the size of the pot you need during each stage of growth. My plants became severely damaged before I realized that the roots were so dense they couldn't even absorb water. I tugged gently on the stem and a block of roots the exact shape of...

    Preflowers have appeared.

    i noticed that they first appeared at the top of the plants, if that helps. Here's some pics: They start off as one very tiny cone near the stipules and sprout hairs(pistils), then increase in size as well as grow more pistils and they grow longer. From the looks of it, i think you may have...

    Female PreFlowers?

    Hey thanks :) I will start to flower for maybe 3 weeks or so, but then they've gotta go outside. The lighting is probably 18 here though, so i figure they'll flip back to veg then start flowering come the fall? Or should i not start to flower, and just continue to veg them outside. Which is...

    Female PreFlowers?

    So does this mean they've matured enough to begin the flowering stage?:grin::weed: The shortest is 18 inches and tallest is 24. They are topped and shouldn't grow too much taller.. I also took 4 clones put in rockwool cubes. :eyesmoke: Also attempted to root the top of a plant whose lower half...

    Female PreFlowers?

    Its been a rough 73 days since they hit the dirt. Experienced nute-burn, drought, pests and stress. However with 24/0 light and a lot of patience they've sort-of recovered. I think I may finally be able to decide whether or not these ladies are really ladies... What do you think of them? My cuts...

    flowering clones?

    I mean cropping it down into say 10 or 20 clones. Allowing the clones to root, vegging them for a week or 2, and then flowering them individually. Would the branches that you cloned create bigger buds grown alone -compared- to letting them start budding on the plant as a whole as mother nature...
