    When the leaves turn yellow in late flower

    When the leaves turn yellow in late flower, are the plants even taking nutrients at that point? It seems like the buds begin to feed strictly off the leaves and there isn't much response from anything added to the soil (other than water)....and even the water uptake is slowed way down. I've also...

    "Fall colors" changes the spectrum of the light inside the tent.

    My two Tuna Kush plants are into the 9th week of flower, now, and the fan leaves are turning lemon yellow. I noticed that the color of the light spectrum inside the tent is now very yellow because of this reflected "Fall color" light bouncing all around. Most plants' leaves turn yellow during...

    When people refer to "OG" weed strains....

    ...what are they really referring to? I Googled it and they say it means "Ocean Grown"....and then cite some supposed conversation that happened between two old heads about some really good weed that one said was from the mountains, but, in reality, it was from the California coast....thus...

    How big can a male plant get?

    Just curious. I was looking at the Mendo Dope Boys' plants and they are gigantic. I've always read that, as long as you give them the space and the nutrients, female marijuana plants will just keep getting bigger and bigger. I mean, okay there's probably SOME kind of maximum size, but the point...

    How long can you keep a strain going?

    My understanding is that you can only keep a clone going for so long before it loses its vitality and so many growers will cross something else with the original strain in order to reinvigorate the original strain. I was talking to someone in the commercial marijuana business about my "Triangle...

    Concrete vibration table for bubble hash?

    I've been thinking about getting a small vibration table and using it to separate trichomes from plant material when making bubble hash. The idea is to not have to stir and agitate the plant material as much as traditional methods (washing machine or stirring by hand). Instead, I'd just place...

    How do outdoor growers keep their plants clean and bug-free?

    I'm a pretty old guy and I can remember throwing jars of seeds into drainage ditches along the roadsides in my rural, country farming community. If anything was still there at the end of the Summer, then that was the grow. Most of the time, nothing came of it. Sometimes we got a few small...

    Calcium acetate when reducing Calcium Nitrate for flowering?

    I use Jack's 3-2-1 system. My plants are approaching week #2 of flower and they are showing some signs of excessive Nitrogen, so I am reducing their recommendation of "Part B" (which is Calcium Nitrate). But, I don't want to take away too much of the Calcium component. I have some very pure...

    I'm not topping my plants this time

    I watched a recent video with the guy who was the inventor of the Mimosa strain (?).....Anyway, he said that he stopped topping his plants and got better results from it. I decided to try not topping this grow and so far, the results are impressive. The plants seem to "know" what to do if you...

    Can UVC light be used to kill any mold spores during drying?

    I happen to have a very vintage, hand-held, UVC light that I got at a yard sale years ago. It's supposed to be for some kind of medical use, but I thought it might work to kill any mold spores that might be in the air or on the drying plants before it develop further, so I have been running it...

    Ever trip with a friend and experience the same hallucination?

    So back in the early 80's, I was living in a dorm room with a guy and we heard there was some yellow dragon blotter going around. We located the guy and bought a couple hits. Then we went off to some party and, after awhile, we were both feeling like we got ripped off because nothing was...

    Rotating platform for tents/small grows?

    You know how mannequins in window displays are sometimes set on rotating platforms? I was wondering how feasible it would be to apply that idea to a tent grow so that the few plants in the tent (or small space) can get the most exposure to the light I was pricing a few....They are either cheap...

    Do you foliar-feed?

    Typically I don't spray anything on my plants. However, I am trying a bit of foliar feeding this run. I use a dilute solution of Schultz liquid 10-15-10 during the veg cycle. I am a big Schultz fan. I know it's common and is probably tied to some bad corporate whatever...but the plants seem to...

    Have you ever gotten a variegated plant?

    I have. This run, I popped three Tuna Kush seeds (Hazeman)...All display unique morphology....One of them is variegated. Check it out....

    Selling used, older tech grow lights: Is it even worth it?

    I'm cleaning out my attic. I have a bunch of older grow lights that go back to ~2012. Some have the old 3-watt Cree red and white LEDs and some have the COB tech. They have fans. I was looking at Ebay to see if people list them. Mostly, I saw really inexpensive, brand-new lights with newer...

    Are 'nanner-made seeds bad?

    I grew some Chemdozer a few years ago. I found a seed in one of the buds. I kept it and grew it out. It grew even better and the smoke was as good as the original. At this point, I've had several different strains do the same thing.....one or two good seeds in a random bud....obviously made from...

    Small tent growers: Yield? or Variety?

    3 X 3 tent 2 new (to me) strains -regular, photoperiod seeds I'm popping 3 seeds of each strain in order to up the % that I will get at least 1 female plant out of 6. I know it's likely that I will at least 1, but you know how Murphy's Law works. If I end up with all 6 being females, then I'm...

    Do you live in an area that is known for a certain strain? Photoperiod only, please*

    Obviously, if you live in Hawaii or someplace like that, you're going to see some "local" strains....but what about other "state" strains? I know of Meig's County Gold and Colorado Green Bud (only read about it). Wondering if there are any others out there with an original tilt. *I'm not...

    Tell me about Colorado Green Bud

    I heard it's legendary and some kind of lineage associated with notorious biker gangs....lol....I don't care about any of that. I'm just wondering if anyone has smoked it and what it's like. Thanks.
