    Can plants drink water, but not nutrients

    I never claimed that it worked. I don't flush my plants because I don't use the flowers for smoking.

    Can plants drink water, but not nutrients

    The plant just uses whatever nutrients it's already absorbed to make its sugars. EDIT: Retracted dubious information

    Can plants drink water, but not nutrients

    In a pot with soil, I would use several gallons of distilled water to flush nutrients out. This would be done at one time, repeating every time the soil dries out to avoid rot. Regular water could be used, but the pH of distilled water is always 7 and doesn't require fiddling. However...

    Can plants drink water, but not nutrients

    Yes, they can toward the end of the flowering stage. Some people say that it makes the flower taste better, but others claim that there is no difference from plants that aren't purged of nutrients.

    Second grow ive done!

    No special devices are needed. You can just look at them with your eyes, like that one person said. I do recommend waiting a week after the day you think that they are ready, though.

    Transplant down stunted Autos into smaller pots?

    It is possible to pot up an autoflower, but there's a small window that it should be done. The window is only about a week after the sprout emerges from the soil, and they are usually affected even if everything is done perfectly. Topping them isn't something that I've looked into, although I...

    GG4 - Day 62 - When to harvest?

    You can take it whenever the majority of trichomes turn cloudy white, or you could wait until they turn amber. It depends on your preference of effects. The rule of thumb is to wait another week after the day that you think that it's ready, so take another look a week from now. As other people...

    Transplant down stunted Autos into smaller pots?

    Sometimes you never see the insects, but you'll see the damage. They could be out there in the fields around you, coming in to eat every so often. Ladybugs and lacewings can be used to prevent problems in the future. The roots may not have been root-bound. People do grow full cannabis plants in...

    Transplant down stunted Autos into smaller pots?

    It looks like some insects have been visiting you. How often do you water, and did you make the soil yourself? I'm seeing leaves cupping down, and the soil looks pretty wet. EDIT: At this point, after looking at how many bite marks there are on the plants, there is a possibility that both...

    Transplant down stunted Autos into smaller pots?

    Autoflowering plants are supposed to be widely known to use more light than photoperiod plants. Doing a Google search, everybody is talking about up to 24-hours of light exposure. Show me where any source claims that autoflowers should not have more light. The part about chloramines was based...

    Transplant down stunted Autos into smaller pots?

    I don't transplant autoflowering cannabis at all. They go right to the final pot. The thing to remember about "super-soil" is that there is practically no such thing unless you make it yourself. At the store, you have potting soil and then you have organic potting soil. Neither contains a...

    Leaves take a while to perk up after lights on.

    That's interesting. I can't imagine it being a sign of something terrible. What kind of watering are you doing, and are you measuring your humidity?

    Oldest weed you’ve smoked?

    I smoked a bag of ground weed my parents found in an unopened letter from many years ago. I smoked a bowl of it when I was desperate, and it tasted like dust. There was no high, but I did get a headache.

    What does everyone use for viewing trichomes?

    I look at trichomes with my naked eyes. Sometimes it helps to take a high-resolution picture of the flowers so I can zoom in on what my eyes struggle with seeing. It's my honest opinion that trichomes don't need to be looked at closely, mostly because the structure of the individual stalks...

    How Do YOU Clean Your Smoking Device?

    I don't know about that. Cannabinoids in the dark, oily residue are hydrophobic. :???:

    How Do YOU Clean Your Smoking Device?

    I was remembering how much of a pain it is to clean spoon pipes, so I thought that I'd ask the community how they like to do their cleaning routine. What do you do to clean your smoking device, and how often do you do it?

    Is this gonna be an issue?

    I found two of the least expensive, but still reliable, options for dehumidifiers. Hopefully one fits your budget. Honeywell TP30WKN - $279.95 Frigidaire Dehumidifier - $164.95 The Frigidaire unit seems perfect for what you need it for, but I put the Honeywell unit in there in case your...

    Is this gonna be an issue?

    I appreciate the clarification. Please forgive me if that seemed ridiculous, but I know people that attempt to dry weed in any typical room. So, I recommend getting a dehumidifier without temperature control. You'd have more stability when it comes to humidity. If you still wish to control...

    Is this gonna be an issue?

    Well, it's better to have a dry dry-room than a really humid dry-room. Is the air conditioning unit a fixture of the dry-room, or is it for occupants in a household room that doubles as a dry-room? Assuming that the a/c unit is for the drying set up, you might want to invest in a device that...

    Does the salt buildup on the fabric pot from my last grow tell me something about my feeding?

    You might be feeding too much for that size of pot. At some point a transplant is better than just feeding a plant more food.
