    Curling plants need help!

    Your Quantum Board is hanging too close to the canopy. That's light bleach my friend. Interveinal chlorosis (yellowing, Mg deficiency) and advancing to rust spot (necrosis, Ca deficiency)...classic example of Ca and Mg deficiency due to the light being too intense. When the LED is too...

    HLG Light usage

    I have 5 QB288's. I have burned the crap out of my plants, seedlings, veg, and flowering using the recommendation PPFD value from HLG website. BTW, I first used the Lux phone app to convert to PPDF. Still, my plants got burned! I will never go with some rigid number or standardize system...

    Cloning in a Cup of Water

    Perhaps try a kelp/seaweed solution to make things go faster? I have some cuttings sitting in just water for the last 3 days, but will experiment with putting a couple of them in a seaweed solution and leave a couple of controlled ones in just water. I will report back whether the seaweed...

    2018 Canadian outdoor strains of choice.

    Glad to have found this thread as I have several questions for outdoor grow in Vancouver area. This is my first time growing outside. I have had a couple of successful indoor harvests. The strain I'm growing is Black Diamond and I know for sure that it's a 9 week flowering plant as I had...

    The Vault’s Blue Dream’matic Auto Comparative Grow – in association with FastBuds

    I popped one Blue Dream'matic Auto and it's a runt. Maybe because I was busting the auto growing myths of no transplanting and no topping. So, I transplanted AND topped her. Looks funny. It's one sided too with one side grows stronger than the other. I am also growing two other autos...

    Looking for blue dream

    @Heathen Raider Have you grown and smoke Finnish Frost? If so, how was it compared to the real Blue Dream that is from the Santa Cruz cut?

    The Main-Lining Thread

    I kind of skimped through Nug's method and must have missed the part about cutting off shoots. I let it grow to a well developed fifth node (to prevent stress), then chopped at the third node. I followed Nebula's method to the T. Yeh, this is 3 months plus from seed. I didn't have space so I...

    The Main-Lining Thread

    Hey JohnDee, Good eyes! Yes indeed it is Nebula's mainlining method. He stopped talking about what to do after the structure is completed. So, that's why I'm here asking. Yeh, from what other said and experienced, I will prune all the small shoots off. And you are correct, the whole idea is...

    Main-Lined plant. Cut tons of new shoots before flip?

    Yeh, one other nice thing about mainlining is you know exactly the structure of the plant so you can plan the spacing in your tent, that is if you grow indoors.

    Main-Lined plant. Cut tons of new shoots before flip?

    Thanks for sharing your experience and nice looking mainline in flowering guys. It's pruning time for me. Too bad that mainlining adds so much more veg time. I would say an extra month in order to create the desire canopy/structure. How much additional time did it take for you guys?

    The Main-Lining Thread

    I apologize for double posting as I didn't know about the existence of this thread before I created a thread (in "General Marijuana Growing") with questions I have about a plant that I mainlined and about to be flipped. So, I will copy and paste that here. Unless the mod could please move that...

    Main-Lined plant. Cut tons of new shoots before flip?

    So your final result, after pruning all the small shoots, was just the main colas (i.e. 4,8,16, etc) with flowers stacking from top to bottom without larfs?

    Main-Lined plant. Cut tons of new shoots before flip?

    I understand that the side buds will get larger but probably not A grade. And I do have the light, 3 x Quantum Board QB288 in a 4x2 tent. This tent is also housing a couple of other autoflowers. I don't know whether you have tried mainlining before, but the whole purpose is to get 8 big arse...

    Main-Lined plant. Cut tons of new shoots before flip?

    SheeshM, Thank you for expressing our experience from your mainline growth. Yeh, I am not sure what is to come with a ton of the small shoots that are coming out of every node on the main 8 branches so that's why I created this thread. Glad you chimed in. I will go ahead and cut maybe 5 or...

    Main-Lined plant. Cut tons of new shoots before flip?

    Hi, I have a main-lined plant that's been vegging for over 3 months as an experiment. Now, it's ready to be flipped. My goal is to harvest 8 nice long and big colas from the 8 main branches as the result of mainlining. However, at every single node, there are new shoots coming out that's...
