Your buds are looking good! Since this is the CFL forum, and you've gone over to the dark side with HPS, I am going to mention something about CFLs. CFLs can be a hassle, having to reposition then all the time. But it can be considered fun, too. Might keep one busy enough so they're not...

I understand your point. And it is a valid one, especially if your goal is to control as much of the grow you can. But understand, many people who'll grow might not have the time to compost good soil. They might not have the vitality to turn the soil periodically, and they might not have the...

Recipe 420, and I suspect others, are "Enhanced with mycorrhizal fungi and beneficial soil bacteria." Those are what may lose strength after awhile.

I just bought a bag of Recipe 420, because they no longer carry Fox Farms. The bag says to use within two years of manufacturing. So, it seems it does breakdown.

Fungus gnats? Big deal. They eat fungus and they may eat tiny root hairs. But they only go down a couple of inches. I get them all the time. Everyone of my house plants (except the cacti) has gotten them at one point or another. Never had one die from fungus gnats. Trick is to control them...

OK, constructive criticism. 1, Lights have to be closer. 2. Stop pulling off leaves. 3. Water less. 4. Soil needs to be near the top of planter. 5. No more fertilizer. Wait until roots firmly established and then fertilizer at 1/4 strength. 6. Get a book! Maybe get two. There is an...

Cheap Fox Farms; http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001I49Q98/ref=dra_a_rv_mr_hn_it_P1300_1000?tag=dradisplay-20&ascsubtag=4a251a2ef9bbf4ccc35f97aba2c9cbda

Glad you got some good smoke. From the looks of it, it seems your might not have made it to the end with those leaves going bad. When you say 300W are you saying 300 actual watts or 300 comparable watts? How many fans did you have going? I'm finding the more fans, the less problems. You...

I don't like grow stores. They charge a lot, and often their service doesn't justify the higher price. Another thing about grow stores is people with plant problems go to the store looking for solutions. Everytime I go to a grow store or another grow operation, I take a shower and change my...

My advice is go with CFLs. Easy as screwing in a light bulb. Nearly all your investment can be used throughout the house when you're done. Just make sure everything goes through a surge protector. And no ground plug adapters. 1. Books. One on CFL growing and one marijuana growers bible. 2...

Oh... If your willing to go with CFLs and be happy getting eight ounces, there is a CFL grow book featured in the CFL section of this site. That book helped me immensely, It has a picture of a good growing pot plant, one for each day of growth!

If growing was an exact science, you could go to a grow store and buy a box with everything you need. But it is more like an art. Different variables, different styles, different levels of skill. Read a lot and take what suits you. Remember the very best growers wouldn't bother revealing their...

Hello everyone, crotchety old woman here, my first joke so don't be too hard on me.

Hate to break it to you, but that is not a marijuana plant. Looks to be a bell pepper.

Seems like you're fuckled. Continue the grow, you'll lose out on some of the potential, but they'll be OK. Out of curiosity, what brand of soil are you using?

Wow! That is one nice set up. Do you describe it in detail elsewhere? Yield? Wattage? Cost?

The 2700K is for budding, the 6500K is for vegging. I've never grown with anything else but fluorescent. I get several ounces from two plants and I don't need to grow more, until next time. During the vegging and the early part of flowering, you need to keep up on bulb placement- moving them up...

You know, I like to use very dry bud in my vaporizer, it just works better. I guess less vapor and more vape.

Thanks. I was kind of thinking it was about ratios, but I see some that express 0.1-0.1-0.1, 2-2-2 or 10-10-10. Seems that the suggested veg ratio, 3-1-2 and the flower ratio, 1-3-2, works out to 4-4-4, in the long run. Anything to say about that?

There's the question. Is 10-10-10 more concentrated than 7-7-7? Anybody ever use African violet fertilizer?
