    Near the end of flowering and have a few questions.-+

    Thanks for all the ideas and tips. They are still sucking up water like crazy, but they are looking more and more ready for harvest every day. I'm thinking another week and they will be perfect. I did end up getting a jewelers microscope for cheap and that's put a whole new perspective on...

    Near the end of flowering and have a few questions.-+

    oh by the way, despite all of the stupid mistakes I made with this grow, I did find one thing I did right. Although in my next grow I will employ a SOG, Bushmaster works amazingly well in keeping a plant short and fat. Well worth the money imo.

    Near the end of flowering and have a few questions.-+

    The strain might be AK48 from Nirvana, but these were in that free bag of seeds you get with every order, so maybe not. I tried to grow a whole bunch in soil but I lost all of them to spider mites :( This is my first venture into a water medium, and so far its worked out better than everything...

    Near the end of flowering and have a few questions.-+

    My first bubble grow is in its 5th or 6th week of flowering and is looking amazingly frosty. I think they will be done in another week at the most. I had a question though that I thought you guys could answer. About a week ago I thought they were almost finished so instead of adding more...

    wondering if they are almost finished...

    how long do you think? I figured they were getting close to finishing so I have them in pure water rather than a nute mix. Think I should put nutes back in?

    wondering if they are almost finished...

    Hey guys! Was wondering if I could get your input on when you think this plant might be done. Its in about its 5th week of flowering, but has only recently started to look frosty. This picture was taken 3 days ago so it looks a bit more frosty now as well. Any ideas...

    Ok to Trim Fan Leaves/Stems During Flowering?

    Hummm... I'll see what I can do bending wise. The fan leaves are so huge though :/

    Ok to Trim Fan Leaves/Stems During Flowering?

    Getting closer to the end of my first grow. 2 of my ladies are flowering at the moment, however my larger girl has some hand sized fan leaves that are kinda blocking flower sites. I remember reading I should trim them off to get the budding areas more light, but how do I go about doing that...

    What in the world happend... Plants went limp on me...

    what I mean by 1 gallon worth of Aqua Flakes was I put the amount called for in the feed guide that would feed 1 gallon worth of water. So for 3-5 gallons of water I gave it technically 1/5 the recommended strength...give or take. This is actually my 2nd grow. My first grow is happening as we...

    What in the world happend... Plants went limp on me...

    Yah I wouldn't think it would either, just seemed like the obvious culprit since it happened only after I turned it on. Aqua flakes are just a nute system for hydro/bubbleponics. Has an A & B solution that you put in the water every time you change/refill it that you increase as vegging goes a...

    What in the world happend... Plants went limp on me...

    So I transferred a few of my better seedlings from a cloner type thing into a bubble system last night. Left them in the temp growing closet under 3x 26w CFLs. Woke up this morning and checked on them 6 hours later and they were fine. So I turned on a bigger 45w CFL in a reflector to give...

    Think this is sufficent to start plants off?

    found a 200w CFL today which is now in my top lamp. All sprouts are now popped and the burned plant is recovering fine. Only problem I'm having now is trying to find a cabinet to fit my 40 gallon grow container :wall:

    Sunlight and cfls

    I was doing the same thing at one point. To my understanding moving them from daylight to CFL light will shock them. Not all to sure about the actual chemistry involved with it, but thats what I heard. Take it with a grain of salt.

    Err... I havn't started flowering @ 12 weeks...

    Thanks for the reply! I actually don't want her to get to much bigger. Shes growing out on my patio, which if you couldn't tell from the shot is in an apartment complex (smell not an issue though). My "protective" barrier only goes up about 5ft tall. Poor planning I know:dunce: Won't make the...

    Think this is sufficent to start plants off?

    Oh yah, light is on a 18/6 cycle and all 4 of the CFLs are 6500k. Went to go grab a few 43w CFLs but so far the 3 stores I went to only had the 26w :evil:

    The only real reason I'm going hydro is for lack of time. I'm working from 7am-10pm and with the hydro system I can more or less set up everything to run automatically. Ill have a few different systems running though. My hydro system is going to support about 6 plants, so its going to be...

    Think this is sufficent to start plants off?

    I'm going to be starting a bubble system as soon as I build my grow cabinet, but wanted to see what you guys think of how I have them temporarily. Just the bottom of my kitchen closet. 4x24w CFLs,2 fans to keep them cool, and the root ready kit. The door stays cracked open about a 1/4 inch...

    Err... I havn't started flowering @ 12 weeks...

    Here is a picture of what most of them look like. Had a little incident where my bunny got out of his cage and ate all the bottoms of my plants, so thats what it has no leaves 1/2 way down. :cuss: As for actually forcing them to flower, I was just going to put a trash can over it with some...

    Err... I havn't started flowering @ 12 weeks...

    Stupid question I'm sure, but will my plants that are outside (AK) on my patio start flowering on their own? Only reason I ask is because Ive had them growing outside since late January (from seeds) and only one of them has shown her sex, and even that only occurred about 3 days ago. I'm in...
