    These can't possibly be the same pheno... right?

    I've seen variations in the same strain both in leaf and bud shape and size. For Sativa/Indica hybrids, I don't think you can make any assumptions about how the plant should look. Not familiar with Blue Dream though. I have grown Blueberry and saw a lot of variation between different...

    How much time left?

    Since you insisted on a dry weight estimate, we're all expecting you to post it! How tall is that plant? Maybe I'm assuming it's bigger than it is. If that plant is 4 feet tall and growing outdoors, I can't imagine you'd get less than 3oz unless that's some airy bud that's not going to fill...

    RH in jar at 63% - leave closed?

    The one time I screwed up curing (by jarring too early and letting the humidity stay in the 80s) the bud got a funky ammonia-type smell and I ended up having to compost the whole jar. "Hay" smell has never resulted in bad bud for me. It goes away and the weed smell comes back with proper time...

    Left in veg for too long, tips on pruning please

    You can still get light burn/bleaching without heat burn. I wouldn't want my plants that close to the light. Just get some of the garden wire and gently bend it or look up super-cropping and go that route. I've done both. The first time I supercropped, I was freaked out too, but it works...

    G13 Labs C99 would not germinate

    Old seeds can be very tough and require patience. If you have any more, I would scarify and soak in water in a dark place until they pop and show a tap root. Then transfer to your medium. If you get any that push up with the seed casing attached, don't be afraid to gently remove it.

    ph question

    If you "just planted them," take them out and drop them in some water and put them in a dark place. Then get your coco mix properly ph'd and add some calmag at 1/4 strength if it's new coco. How did you get your coco to 7/7.5? It's should be 5.8 ideally.

    Heat Stress + Slow Water Absorption + Discolored / Blotches on Leafs

    Mine always came out close to 7. I assumed that was true for everyone but I guess it's different for different systems and input water (as I just Googled this). I assumed since pure water is 7.0, RO water should be close. But since RO water is so pure, the slightest amount of an acid or base...

    Growing in coco help

    I water every two or three days in 5g pots with 75% coco, 25% perlite. They key is the weight of the pot, IMO.

    Heat Stress + Slow Water Absorption + Discolored / Blotches on Leafs

    There's something wrong with your PH measuring device if RO was at 5.7.

    DWC: To top feed or to not. HELP

    A picture is worth a thousand words. I see no reason not to top feed. However, I wouldn't expect to need to with adequate bubbling.

    First time grow help!

    Nice eye. I got distracted by all the yellow leaves and didn't notice those green ones curled back.

    Building a Grow Room in an Outdoor Shed

    I would insulate the walls and the roof. You can buy that reflective bubble insulation and put it inside on the ceiling to reflect heat back from the roof or put a metal roof on: you can get corrugated metal at Home Depot cheap and it's reflective. You definitely want insulation under that...

    Heat Stress + Slow Water Absorption + Discolored / Blotches on Leafs

    CalMag, IMO. Not familiar with sunshine mix though. If you are just using RO water, you'll definitely need to supplement CalMag. Are you feeding anything at all?

    Now we see why you don't trim those low fan leaves. ;)

    If those are about 4 weeks from the flip, yes, it looks OK.

    Best Veg light cycle

    I've tried 18/6, 20/4, and 24/0. 18/6 wins hands down, IMO. But it could vary by strain as well. I've only grown two strains.

    Left in veg for too long, tips on pruning please

    You can super-crop or LST. Depends on how thick the stem you need to bend is. There are stickies for both.

    Plants growing slow in rdwc

    Be careful with chlorine. If you don't dose it precisely, your plants will be ruined (assuming they aren't already). You could try just the tea first and see how that goes. Both times I got to the chlorine/tea stage, I was weeks away from the eventual total collapse.
