Are there any uses that you (or anyone else), know of for a young male plant like this?

Thanks for you helpful information. However, it leads me to a further question. You all said "too many" balls. Is it possible that another one of my plants might have a few male flower sites as well as female sites? Is there an amount of these balls, or male flowers as i imagine you meant...

hey there, I would appreciate some help if anyone has some quick input to offer. I have looked at many picture and descriptions of sexing, but it's hard to make the call and toss a plant on your first grow. I want to be sure. Thanks.

Hey! The plants shot up as expected, in some of those last pictures you can see that they were about 13 inches tall but now they're a whole 36 inches (3 feet) tall! I've included a picture of the box looking densely vegged. They are beginning to develop their flowers but I am afraid that the...

Following up with a how-to on the construction of a ghetto pot like the ones I'm using temporarily. They work well enough to be used primarily if they are well built and are made from materials found around the house. The procedure is simple and just requires duct tape and plastic bags with...

Hey, alright! The plants were under the good care of my friend from week 5.5-7 and although some upgrades (transplants + lighting) could not be made, the plants are in great shape. Beginning Week 7 the 3 'ladies' have been moved to some much needed, larger, but temporary, containers. They...

Hey there guys, hoping to consult your wisdom once again. I am planning on attaching the black and white wires of a 70 watt HPS flood light to an extension cord with the female end cut off....right now. Considering my past experience with light switch and outlet wiring, i don't see how the...

As one might have hoped, the sprouts responded extremely well to the additional lighting and nutrients. The plants made great progress during their third week of growth (days 14-21/Feb. 2-9). The root system could now be seen along the upper part of the inside of the pot and I noted a...

Once the seedlings' roots fully penetrated the rock wool cubes, they were transplanted to some 4"x4" pots filled with coco-coir. Shortly afterward, they were given a diluted concentration of the nutrients shown below in their water. These pictures of the sprouts were taken on February 2nd...

They are an indica strain called "Lemonade" and were germinated between moist paper towels on January 19th, 2009. The germinated seeds were then transferred to rockwool cubes, given clean water and allowed to grow for a week. The pictures below were taken after that first week. -...

Hey There! I'm very excited to have begun my first grow and am looking forward to sharing my experiences and pictures with you. I hope that you all enjoy my plants and journal and feel free to discuss my project. I recently constructed a small, 2x2x5 (wxdxh) grow box to begin my first grow...

A Quick Q: I began my first grow about 1.5 weeks ago - which was when the seeds hit the wet paper towels indoors. Since then I have had my 3 seeds under 3 x 42w CFLs that have been running 24 hours/day. While I have read that a normal veg cycle is 18/6, I read that 24 hours of light will only...

Hey there, just looking for a little advice in the lighting department. I am currently beginning my first grow in a box/tent that I constructed of 2x2x5 (wxdxh) and need some advice on what light to purchase once it's time to begin flowering. Many of the fixtures that I have seen on the...

People make their grow boxes out of all sorts of stuff, but you should try to keep it air tight so that you can control the circulation, temperature, and humidity and then obviously light proof. Once you take those environmental factors into consideration you can add things like your...

yea, i was loving that when i first taped it up and turned it on. They also have different attachments so you have extra wires to be stripping in case you want to use 1 adapter for multiple fans.

No, he's saying that the ones from your bathroom aren't generally used for growing. They seem to be incandescent light bulbs which are pretty standard and what i imagine to be in your bathroom and your pictures. The least expensive way to have a successful veg is to buy CFLs (Compact...

Thanks. Good deal. I have a few small 80mm computer fans (12v) rewired to a few universal adapters with adjustable voltage which I plan to mount in the 2x2x5 (wxLxH) enclosure that I have built. Are we talking like circulation or a breeze?

Hey there! I'm excited to have begun germinating the seeds which will hopefully become a successful first grow, but I am left with some specific questions now that I've done most of my research, my setup is complete and my seeds are nice and wet. I have placed my seeds between moist paper...

Pole Position.

I see that it has already been pointed out that seeds can be purchased at high times. While I don't know what the prices are like there for myself, it was mentioned that they are very high. I recently purchased a few seeds from Le Rock on St. Catherine near St. Dominique for my first grow...
