    The fuck is this ????

    Looks like the leaf was shaded and the plant had started to recover the mobile nutrients from it before dropping it.

    The rate of change is variable, slower near the solstices and faster near the equinoxes.

    Maybe, I don't know. But nobody on here, that I've seen, has shown any evidence of it being "better". I suppose if you're feeling like mister science you can take two clones, grow them through veg, then flip one straight to 12/12, and take the other down slowly and then compare the end results...

    Importance of "PH"

    I have a confession to make, I have never tested the ph of my soil, or my nutes. The only time I had a problem which I would attribute to ph was when I accidentally dumped half a mug of coffee into a 1 liter container. There are a lot of things that were/are critically important to hydro which...

    You can, but I haven't seen anyone on here who's actually done it say it's better.

    Please recommend outdoor varieties that give indoor quality

    How do you dry and cure your weed? I grow indoors, and am starting to move outdoors, and what I got this year (one plant in a pot, and one wind damaged branch of slightly early bud, rest was ripped) did not look any different from the indoor after dry/cure. Maybe more leaves, but brown, harsh...

    Mice chewed my stalks. can they recover?

    We had mice until we got a cat. My parent's place had mice, my dad bought "Super Mouse Treat"- birdseed treated with poison. My sisters kicked up a fuss about animal cruelty so my dad promised not to open the box. He just put it in the garage and the mice found it themselves. They haven't had a...

    ADVICE

    Is it the branches themselves, or the petioles? The stems that join the leaves to the stalk?

    hermie!

    Some growers keep having problems with herms all through their grows, for others it's more of an isolated incident. I cant tell you which you're likely to have, so I would keep watching. That will also help you catch any nute imbalances if they crop up, so kind of a mixed blessing I guess.

    Experienced outdoor growers

    Yep. That's what I did with promix herb & vegetable, except I started the plant indoors.

    Experienced outdoor growers

    Mycorrhizae, singular mycorrhiza. It's an uncommon word, so the site's spellcheck doesn't know it. Lol, doesn't know "indica" either. Being Canadian I use English spelling, so a few of my correctly spelled words come up with little red lines under them. Mycorrhizae should help with the clay...

    Leafs looking not good, whats wrong?

    Didn't mean to freak you out, I don't know if you can smoke it or not. Just giving you a couple options if you don't want to smoke a plant that had a pm infection. I never had pm indoors, only outdoors, and I beat it in veg. But the spores are everywhere, including in all the vegetables we eat.

    Herms!

    I'm not going to say that every female plant can go hermie, because I just don't know. Actually, this raises a question, has anyone ever had a male plant with nanners? I think it's interesting that hermaphrodite cannabis plants can produce full male flowers (balls) or just the anther (nanners)...

    Leafs looking not good, whats wrong?

    With the peroxide you're not doing any favours to your microbes. And RO water is notorious for calmag deficiencies. You might want to look into doing something else with the plant other than smoking. Like making iso oil (the type of oil you make using alcohol, I'm not really up on concentrate...

    No cotyledons when seedling sprouted?

    I accidentally did something like that, got too rough with a helmet head. If you're willing to baby that plant along until she recovers, she might make it. That tiny true leaf she has might just save her. That's what happened with mine. It sat like that for days (can't really remember how many)...

    Electrical awareness

    I'm one of those rare guys who thinks that LEDs and HID are both great for growing weed, but this situation is exactly what LEDs were meant for. If you just don't like them fair enough. But I really think you should look into them.

    regular seeds vs feminized seeds

    I just hauled out my last fem seed, saving it for the summer, and compared her to some of my other seeds. My (auto x sativa) x sativa seeds are all grey and speckled, my indica x sativa seeds are brown and black kinda dappled with a few stripes, and my indica seeds are brown and lightly striped...

    Electrical awareness

    Easier, actually. All the mechanics I know will work odd hours to get cars done on time, and will work nights to cut costs. Course they're all ex military.

    regular seeds vs feminized seeds

    Well, it's definitely not true for me. All my seeds have varied in size, including seeds from the same plant with the same father. All the feminized seeds I've had have been medium to large and quick to sprout. The feminized seeds that I've used grew just as fast as my regs, (except the males...

    Electrical awareness

    Yeah, peak rate $0.134/kwh, mid-peak $0.094, off peak $0.065. OP, does your power company have peak and off peak rates? If they do it gives you a good excuse to be running your heaviest loads at night.
