    Help...

    You can do this for as long as you want. The slower the drying and curing, the more flavor and aroma (generally). I usually cure for about 2 weeks, so that I know that all of the moisture in the stem has wicked its way to the outside of the bud. Most people just don't have 2 weeks to cure...

    Bananas?

    Kermit knows whats up, that's a trick of the trade! It looks like you are still within your first few weeks of flowering, so they will not run the risk of botrytis (bud mold) by spraying your buds. Although it is not an organic supplement, I did use to use the Dutch Master Reverse for...

    Will this light work??

    Ya it should work. They will be close together though because this light does not throw down much of a footprint. I would not want to put my plants in anything bigger than a 3-5 gallon. You are probably better off using 2-3 gallon pots and veg for shorter. You also might want to think about...

    White hairs turning brown and dying help needed!!!!

    Is the light too close? Did you spray anything on the leaves while in bloom (harsh pesticides or fungicides)? Did you feed any high PK flower boosters with your organicare pure bloom? Have you successfully flowered out this specific strain before to see how it is supposed to finish?

    How do I get Nose?

    If you cut the leaves completely off while they are wet (manicure wet), and then dry them, then you also have a good chance of the smell being lost. This is because much of the dank smell comes from the resin glands on the buds and leaves. If you remove many of those leaves, the buds will dry...

    Botanicares Cal-Mag plus..........This seems crazy!!

    The aggressive feeding is for people that are using RO systems or they are over-driving their plants with a high PK booster. You genereally want to have 200-400 PPM of calcium and magnesium in your water before you add your base nutrients So with that said, you will only need to add as...

    DIY 240v?

    Bring in an electrician to properly wire a 240v line from your main panel to a sub-panel, or dedicated 240v outlet. If you know you are going to use a couple lights, or plan to expand in the future, look into the Powerbox units. They sell them with hardwire options and "plug and play"...

    Odor Controll HELP

    That is an ozone generator. They are used for lingering smells after a carbon filter has been used (for attics or hallways). They are harmful to humans when they have high levels of ozone in the air (which is why most ozone generators are at the end of duct lines before they are exhausted out...

    Attic grow help.

    There are usually vents in the attics. If there are some vent holes like you said, you can split your intake and/or exhaust line between several duct lines to each of the vent holes. This will help disperse the air without having to cut new holes or force air through the roof. If there is...

    Mounting Fan ?

    This is a good video that shows a visual of one way to set up a cool tube setup with just one fan. I prefer to suck the heat out of the light, but there are many people that do the opposite. I just find that when you suck thru it, it draws the heat out better. You only want to blow thru the...

    Flowering plant starting to curl leaves under.

    I agree with Slipon. Because you are in the Manna Mix, which is a coco coir/fiber blend with food in it. You have probably used up all of the food in the media during the first month or so. So, you will need to kick up your food a bit (especially a cal-mag supplement). You should try to not...

    Does Tap water Significantly lower yeilds.

    You are in soil/coco, so there is a good chance that you are going to want to innoculate your roots with some kind of a stimulator, beneficial bacteria or fungi. With this said, you are going to want to remove the fluoride, chlorine, and chloramines from the water. The biological activity in...

    Should I Cut Yellow Leaves Off If They Are Blocking Light?

    DO NOT REMOVE LEAVES!! Only when they are "on their way out" and more than 50% dead (Jorge's rule of thumb). They are super important when it comes to the process of photosynthesis, so that the plant has the ability to take in photons for usable energy/carbs. Tuck the leaves back or under...

    What to put in my system to keep it clean all through growing?

    You have done a nice job with your climate control, and there has never been an issue with a pathogen getting into the res or root zone. Keep up the great work because it is hard for most people to control the temp of their nutrient solution and keeping quality control down into account when...

    What to put in my system to keep it clean all through growing?

    You have two options: 1. The sterile route. You just need to get a concentrated hydrogen peroxide (29%) H2O2. By adding this to the reservoir, it will reciculate thru your bucket system and keep all of the roots sterile and protect them from growing any pathogens. This will also add extra...

    How many autos in 3x3 grow tent

    With a 3 gallon nursery pot, you are looking at about 10 inches in diameter. With that said, you are looking at 9 plants. This will also give you a couple inches between the lips of the pots, giving the critical mass a chance to bush out a little bit. Hope this helps

    Nute Lock?

    I agree that you probably could use some more fresh air. Also try not watering it so much, maybe let it get on the "dry" side before watering. It will show the tips of the leaves burnt, or a curling/twisting of the leaves

    Problems After Topping

    There is nothing to worry about, the plant will recover just fine. It would have been more preferred for you to top that one, and wait a day or two before putting it in the flower chamber so that it could come out of the stress a little bit before it undergoes a lot of stress when the lights...
