    PC Grow + 69w CFL + Newbie first grow

    Nice looking case. Here are a couple tips from my experience. You won't have much vertical height so I wouldn't recommend vegging for more than a few weeks. Use low, square pots to take advantage of the space, and a screen to tie the plants down. If you add odor control in the future, it...

    Just a couple questions concerning one month plant! Input appreciated! (pics)

    Transplanting isn't that hard. You can do damage when the roots aren't established but when they're that old it'll recover even if you break/tear some roots. If she's settled down by now in the current soil though, you may be okay.

    Favorite lines to pick up girls!!

    Have a male friend come in the store next time (after you've been browsing for awhile), recognize you, and yell "YOU GAVE ME CHLAMYDIA!" Then he runs out crying. That oughta do it.

    I need to rant about THIS section

    I agree with the sentiment here. I love helping newbies (hey we were all newbies once) but some of the questions are so ridiculous it's obvious they haven't researched anything, least being the security required to grow successfully in a non-legal state. Hint: the bedroom closet in your...

    first time growing

    yeah of the 2 you will probably get a female. the males will show preflowers first usually, and be bigger, but not always. get one plant harvested and you'll be on your way to buy more seeds.

    Newb cannot tell if this is finished.

    when she's ready the hairs will recede into the bud, and the calyxes will fatten from the bottom of the plant upwards. the buds will look fat and ripe--you will know.

    How long should it take for plants to show sex from 12/12 from seed

    True kong, In 12/12 from seed the plant simply grows until it's old enough to start flowering. This is *usually* when the plant shows preflowers in veg, although you may not see them. With 12/12 there is no question and the flowers show up as soon as possible.

    Zeus's Take on Harvesting

    This is a great thread. Remember to look at trichomes on the calyxes, not just the leaves. Leaf trikes tent to amber much earlier. Yes the plant will have a swollen look to it. The pistils will recede into the calyx as they fatten up. Then you know you're close.

    Just a couple questions concerning one month plant! Input appreciated! (pics)

    I'd get it out of the Miracle Grow and into something better, like Fox Farm. It will make your life easier. He/she does look a bit hungry but it could be nute lockout caused by ph or lack of nutes. Red stems and light green color leaves are pre-signs that she is not getting enough N or P. Best...

    Which breeder has a true Nl #5? For a fair price and it is actual quality

    If you're looking for a close representation of the clone, Atomic is probably a better bet than Nirvana, from what I've read. The original clones from the 80s are breeding stock for nearly every good strain out there, needless to say they are worth seeking out in seed form...

    My first grow and setup

    I always love reading some of the advice given here. Take things with a grain of salt for sure... Anyway things look pretty good for your first time. Things start slower in soil, some seeds are just not as vigorous. Transplant when there are a few nodes and a good root system. Smart pots or...

    harvest came, but wasnt impressed :(

    Headband is a classic clone only strain with a high that feels like, well, a headband. Unless you know someone with the real deal... Quality isn't usually affected by lighting, just yield. Fluorescent buds are generally of the same quality as hps buds.

    Over the cliff we go!

    The deficit will never be reduced. They claim to, but it's actually a decrease in planned increases. Still a net increase. Harsh words for the Senator. Name calling in politics usually is the result of listening to divisive talking heads, and little understanding of how things actually work.

    risky grow ops

    No tell, no smell, no sell. Be nice to your neighbors but don't invite them over for tea. Sounds like people you wouldn't want to be associated with anyway. If you're smart about it they won't find out.

    Is this a chick?

    Only a few more months, no time at all! Careful she will get stinky real soon.

    Best plant for a beginner? Is there one?

    Yeah pass on the bagseed. Too unpredictable unless you're sure of the parents. There are plenty of inexpensive seeds from smaller breeders with great genetics. Check out the breeders forums at icmag. Lots of great things happening over there.

    Soil grow, do i need benificials?

    Soil needs npk in some form. The amounts, if any, should be listed on the package. Fungi and bacteria simply break down the organic matter to make it available to the roots. So no, you don't need that extra stuff if the soil has enough already.
