    Did my autos go back into veg?

    Hello I have some Auto PK plants they took forever to start flowering (roughly 6 weeks ago). I turned my back on them for 2 weeks and I think they have gone back into veg from flower. I've left them at 18:6hr cycle thier whole life, using a Quantum LED board. They had stopped stretching for a...

    How do you store your seeds?

    I keep my seeds for over a year. Historically I have just kept them in my fridge but germination rates weren't great (maybe 50% after a year) so I got a vacuum sealer and started keeping seeds in my freezer. I read about the world seedbanks keeping things at ~0% RH for long term storage so I...

    All Tips Drying Up

    So my plants were doing pretty well on this run until about 1/2 way through my flower (~5 weeks) where my tips started drying up pretty aggressively and I'm not sure what to do. I grow organic with 1 TBSP each topdressed crabmeal/alfalfa/kelp every 3 weeks. I have an AC infinity which keeps the...

    Best cover crop for indoor living soil?

    Hello i was wondering if there is some consensus on what the best cover crop is for indoor living soil? There are grasses and legumes and even marigolds. Maybe a mix is best? My setup: I have 20gal pots, will add red wrigglers and grow as long as I can in the same soil if it matters Rye: I...

    I was considering trying to put a 2x4' fabric bed like so: https://www.kisorganics.com/products/grassroots-fabric-pots Into my 2x4' tent The biggest thing that has been holding me back is what to do with runoff water? Or does that not exist with large beds? There is a spill tray in my tent...

    Clawing - Too many things cause it and I'm confused

    Hi there I was hoping someone else could help me ID what's going on with my plants. They are generally pretty happy but they have started having a bit of clawing. I know that can come from too much N, too much water or too little water. Today I decreased the amount of watering (I use a Blumat)...

    Will this grow into a normal node?

    I had some critters gnaw off a node in it's infancy. Usually I top my plants but I'm not sure if I should just kill off this node and wait for an extra one before topping or not. I could just pinch it off and leave the one on the other side then when I top I'll have 5 stems coming out to spread...

    Something is eating my seedlings :(

    So this is my first time actively re-using soil for an indoor grow which i did by mixing in ~1/3 by volume new compost from my composter. Notably there are lots of critters in my 5 gal container (millipedes, little flys and pill bugs) and I grow indoors. I've had a lot of issues getting my...

    In situ compost? [revitalizing soil] Add amendments to my compost?

    So I grow organic (try to just topdress ammendments) in a 5 gal soil for my scrog grows. From my understanding the soil is depleted by the end of a grow and since the volume of soil is pretty low I can't really have a perpetual soil. At the moment I just toss the soil in an empty composter...

    TopDress + Blumat?

    So I have a blumat system and I top dress my plants primarily. Does topdressing work with bluemat based plants? In my head it does since the roots come up to the top of the soil thus eating the topdressing, but I'm not sure I'm doing something sane. Maybe topdressing only works with...

    Example Top Dress Only Program?

    Hello! I grow organic and on my last grow tried to go top dress only (no teas) but my plants weren't very happy. (for reference I start with a subcoolesque soil recipe from buildasoil) Does anyone follow a topdress only routine or know one I can copy as a starting point? I don't enjoy making...

    Is this WPM in my buds?

    I had some issues with WPM in this grow. As a whole I have it under control I think (it's still in the tent but pretty minimal) but I'm starting to see what I think is WPM on the sugar leaves of my bud. see Image. Are those trichromes or WPM? It seems too white and fluffy to be trichs to me...

    Over dried? Now what?

    So I just finished drying my flower in my grow tent for 1 week after trimming off the biggest fan leaves. Drying setup: AC infinity fan was set to turn on at 40% RH and go fast at 50% RH...I assume RH was 40% most of the time. My tent circulation fan was at medium inside the 2x4 tent. How dry...

    Brown stuff in bottom of tincture?

    Hello I am trying to make a weed tincture from a QUISO wash. I did my QUISO and had a resin at the bottom of a jar after I evaporated the ISO. Then I poured vodka on it to make my tincure. The resin seemed to be dissolving by eye but it left this odd brown blob at the bottom. I heated up the...

    When you make weed butter or weed Isopropyl wash - Do terpenes come too?

    When you make weed butter, isopropyl, shatter etc. Do the terpenes come with the solution or do you lose them? I exclusively drink/eat my weed and I'm looking at seeds now. Everyone talks about the different kinds of highs and the terpenes of different strains but I'm not sure if that even...

    Making tincture easy and efficiently?

    so I read something about making weed tincture in everclear as being 80% effective at extraction. That feels really wasteful and I don't want to have to go through some other process with the left overs. Can I just extract with Isopropyl first to get ~100% extraction then dissovle the residue...

    Are these plants small? Are they healthy?

    So I have these 2 plants (1 silver lemon haze on the left, 1 northern lights on the right). They are at 7 weeks old and they are only 11" tall. I've been LST training them out a bit but in comparison to some grow diaries I've seen, I feel like I'm behind. I think the setup is good to them. I...
