    About to go 12/12 what do you think to my plants???

    I say if you're only one day into 12/12, go back on 24/0, top the plants, veg them two more weeks, then kick back. If you have to grow short, this is the best way to increase your yield by producing additional colas. All you're doing by kicking back now is reducing your yield by more than 1/2...

    Is this normal or hermie? I need some info!

    Hermied male flowers look like bananas and are usually yellow. If you're worried, just cut off what you may think be hermie parts. If you're in the beginning of flower, and you decide they're hermie, toss the plant. If you're at day 40, just let it go, you'll get a few seeds, which you shouldn't...

    change of flowering time

    In the future if you need to change, which you should only do one time a cycle, just do an extended period of darkness that is no longer than 48 hrs. So, if you need to change it by 6 hours, do the 12 hours of dark, then add the 6 to get to the 12 on time you want. That change in the light...

    When do autoflowers stretch?

    8 inches is too close for a 600, should be at least 16", no more than 20". This is keeping the plant short, and in the end will burn the pistils, meaning no bud to smoke. What kind of temps are you running?

    Help,..Clone issues

    How close is the light? How many transplants? PH of water? Have you used any feed? Soil mix?

    When do autoflowers stretch?

    Hopefully they never stretch. Sounds like you've got a good thing going, that your nodes are tightly spaced, that's good. Just let it go and be patient. The more tightly spaced the nodes, the heavier your harvest will be. How tight are you keeping your light on them and what type is it?

    First grow

    No, don't start flowering now. You can avoid stretch simply by keeping the light tight on them and keeping a fan blowing a VERY gentle breeze across the top of the canopy. Veg them to about 12" then top back to about 8", veg another week, then cut back to 12/12 if you're not going to improve...

    Just started flower, How should I transition with nutes?

    During flower you want to reduce your n to somewhere between 2 and 4, increase your p & k to 50-30. I would suggest you drop the 20-20-20 altogether and only do 1/2 strength of 10-30-20 and the lowest recommended dosage of the 0-50-30 for use with other nutrients. (Usually this would be a 1/4...

    Are you an MPer?

    Very clever responses from all. Yes MP is another forum we haven't been able to access for a couple of days. I was just looking for certain friends who may have floated here. I have found some. I will add that I originally rejected the idea of hanging out here, but I just got a dose of some...

    Are you an MPer?

    If so, post a visitors message, let's figure out where we're going to hang out if it's gone. Rollitup regulars please don't be offended by this post. I'm sure that in this forum friendships are formed and only accessed when you're here, I would just like to know where to go to talk to my...

    Frickin sucks if that's so. I noticed an absence of The Hemp Goddess and Hick the last week or so. The home page and all its links are still good, so maybe it's under repair. What other forums might I find some of them? I don't think this one is for me, you know?

    Skunk Kush is a good producer, but a weak smoke. When I grow her I pull about 3 ounces from under a 400 in Pro-Mix BX. 1. You need 3,000 lumens per sqft for veg, 5000 for flower. 2. You choose the pot size that best fits your grow. Small plants, small pots, big plants, big pots. 3. You lst if...

    How do my girls look? 5 days old

    Hi there. You should be following the wet/dry cycle even at this stage. Let the pots lose at least 2/3rds of their saturated weight before watering again. Your girls need to develop strong roots, they do this by reaching for water. Discontinue nutes at this stage, they're too young to handle...
