Could be a lot of factors here.. one thing to get out of the way is the effect of 2 days without light.. really its not as bad of a problem as one would think .. plants should be fine without light for 2 days BUT will decrease yield slightly in the long run.. If I had to guess (limited info), I...

hehe ya those are normal sized leaves dude, but very healthy looking .. nice specimens! :)

OMG dude, those poor bastards need more LIGHT! They can be an inch or two away from the light without getting damaged and that would help the energy absorption rate.. but probably need at least triple the wattage that you currently have in order to support that many babies.. also, be prepared to...

ya all good/necessary points.. Ill add one small note: if maximizing number of babies per volume of the room, you should engineer a setup whereby you have a 'stadium' configuration --> successively higher and higher levels/shelves that expand up and away from the center of the room, this way you...

yeap.. check out the stickys.. you need to buy a 30X-100X magnifying glass (with light) at radio shack for $15.. then you can observe the color of the trichomes (really the only factor you want to be concerned with in deciding when to harvest); for normal high - mix of uplifting with a little...

Hey all, time for a summer grow and this time I'm trying the White Widow Max strain from 420-seeds.com. As a basis for comparison, I started with two seeds in soil and two seeds in hydro. The soil babies get a 300W cfl (going to use these as 'Mothers'). The hydro babies get an old used up 400W...

For seedlings, it is very important that the soil has enough moisture for rooting but its true overwatering is a major factor to watch (don't do it). Really, the humidity is more important in the first 2 weeks than watering is.. I would say you should only water (completely drench the soil)...

Well, the plant was cut down yesterday and the yield turned out to be great. The crystals finally turned to about 10% amber and the rest cloudy while almost all of the hairs turned reddish orange and the cola buds swelled large with a purple hue. The plant was cut at the base, the leaves were...

that is either caused by nute burn or heat stress.. if you are using cfls I'de and it occured just after you started feeding the seedlings, I would say that the feeding was too extreme.. try diluting the nutes in more distilled water and only using 1/4 the suggested dose.. that plant is still...

Just a quick update.. actually its the end of the 11th week of full life cycle and end of 6th week of flowering.. the buds are starting to swell and develop into the final stages .. I think it will be ready to harvest in about 2 weeks or so.. the main cola is huge and most of the buds have about...

yepper.. great explanation and break-down of the science above... its a common myth that people think that sucrose is directly absorbed through the roots, increasing yield. It is strictly used for soil to enrich the complex micro-environment of the soil which in turn enriches the life of the...

yea its time to harvest! enjoy the smoke :)

lookin good man, subbed... dont you hate how those HIDs interfere with electronic cameras causing lines in the image.. never grown kush but it looks like a sweet dynamo of a plant, very good internodal length.. rock on

hmm, yea its going to be impossible to tell the strain based off a plant in veg, maybe once it gets into flowering you will be able to narrow it down based on the appearance of the bud but even then the best you'll be able to do is narrow it to about 20 or so possible strains (even if that based...

I usually let off the Nitrogen (grow mix) just a little and bring the ratios back to even (as well as going only 1/4 to 1/2 strength) for the first two weeks of flower and then gradually increasing the 'Bloom' mix as the weeks tic by.. seems to work nicely.. remember, about 2 weeks before you...

haha nice! I used to own a bunch of 'anoles' (small little green lizards) that eat up small flying insects like crazy.. they only cost a couple bucks each at the pet store, I wonder if you let a few of those loose in your garden, if it would also help.. cheers

cool. .. yea light, heat, air and time degrades THC so since it was cool and in the dark for that week, I cant imagine that the potency was decreased by even a small degree. You may be able to bring some of that potency back if you let it dry for a few weeks and cure it for longer.. I personally...

hopefully the 'film' wasn't a layer of bacteria/algae - maybe put a tsp of h2o2 in the res just to be sure.. rock on

hmmm interesting, thanks for sharing I wasn't aware of this technique - Im gonna try it - it doesn't sound like THAT much 'trouble'.. just wrap the cut with saran wrap and a bit of soil .. nice

sweeeeet dude, beautiful looking cola - are you flushing yet? rock on
