The municipality should publish water quality info. That would be a good place to start. Be on the lookout for chloramine. Some use it while others use chlorine. Chlorine can be easily dealt with but chloramine not. Plants aren't fond of the latter. If water is too crappy, I have seen posts of...

A friend of mine stated that a grower friend of his paid $500 for one Bruce Banner seed. To say the least, I'm skeptical. Anyone here ever heard of any seeds that could possibly fetch such a premium price? My thinking is either my friend misheard, my friend's friend tells whoppers, or my...

Looks ok to me.

By hook or by crook, getting across the finish line is the main priority on the first few grows...and it appears you're gonna get there. Hopefully, the more mistakes you've made along the way, the more you can avoid the same ones going forward. Reasonably good quality media, lighting, nutrients...

I'm not a big fan of autos personally but have grown a few. Currently doing one outdoors in a 7 gal airpot. It's basically an I don't give a f##k see what happens grow. That said, count me in the camp of plant seed directly into final pot. No paper towel method. Wet the seed site and dome it...

Lawd yes. Then repeat several more times as the new branches offer you new topping sites.

I started out with general hydroponics flora trio. So so results. Tried another brand...then another, etc... Never got so good at dosing. Usually seemed to over or under feed...but always got across the finish line. Then I started dr earth (per stealth grows channel) mixed results so far but...

Hmm... autos in peat pots. I think I'd cut the bottoms off those gently and ease them into some 3 or even better, 5 gallon fabric pots. Tap root is gonna bottom out in there within a week I'd suspect. I've heard and read that when the tap root encounters resistance, it can factor in to earlier...

What did you use in the rez? I'm about to try out my new diy ghetto bubbler. Hoping it doesn't take too long.

Yep, grow it out don't throw it out. This is what learning is made of. I have one now in week 4 of flower experimenting with dry organic with N deficiency. I gave it a shot of flora trio leaning heavier on the micro and a few grains of RAW N (20-0-0) about a week ago for faster absorption and...

Meanwhile, back at the laboratory, I'm planning to reverse and pollinate to produce feminized seeds. I screwed up awhile back and inadvertently bought regular seeds. The strain is a fam fav and I'm too stupid to know what I cantdo till I try. I have no idea if my seeds are from the same mother...

Maybe try watering slowly. Dry media can actually repel water at first. Watering too fast can channel through the pot and contribute to excessive runoff and washing away nutes while leaving dry spots in the pot. Just recently been using organic dry fertilizer here with good results but I'm still...

Recently jumped into the organic dry fertilizer game and have to say in week 3 of flower I'm thrilled at the results and the convenience of not having to mix liquid fertilizer. Have yet to see the first hint of deficiency/toxicity. I'm using a different brand but I'm still blown away by the...

I had to attempt lowering soil ph in my veggie garden and sulpher is typically the solution for that but it takes weeks minimum for microbes to break it down. Put in a few weeks ago so jury still out on results. I usually have the opposite problem with inconsistent potting mix ph too low right...

I recently got careless reaching past a plant to tend another and after backing out, saw a branch upside down. It was hanging by just a few fibers. At least a foot long and break was in the crotch of a previous topping. Really no good way to splint or tape it so I put it back where it should be...

What did the roots look like? If they appear to be getting the dreaded browning and slimy appearance, baddies are finding an entrace. PH/TDS meters of decent quality and accurate? Also, the How Weed Grow channel has some videos where he failed few times at hydro and nearly wrote off hydro as...

Just less work than installing inside and a little less overhead clutter. The 180 turn in the duct certainly adds restriction but not a problem. Your set-up will work fine the way it is, although more prone to reduced filter life over time. There are many ways to skin a cat.The main objective is...

Here's my latest ghetto set up. 2x4x5. Needed another tent fast and cheap and this one fit the bill nicely. Sporting a 6" filter inside and fan outside. 6" is overkill but already had it so that's what she got. This would afford adequate headroom for an auto imo or a photo as long as they are...

Not much headroom to work with. As mentioned by others, blowing into the filter will work. Until it doesn't. Especially using tap water in a mist humidifier. Minerals will come out of solution as water evaporates and will clog the carbon granules. Like feeding talcum powder into it. I ruined 2...

Looking like spider mites to me. Break out the loupe and go hunting. I don't not never wanna deal with those things again. I brought an outdoor plant indoors to finish flowering against advice of those that knew better than me. No natural predators indoors except the grower.
