    Can pot design influence root rot?

    It seems sort of obvious now but I havent seen it talked about too much. Can pot design, whether plastic or fabric pot, influence root rot or whether the plant gets it? Are shorter more squat pots inherently more susceptible to root rot? Would it be possible for them to get it in the middle...

    Switching up a driver on a pre-made board

    Process of Translocating Nutrients

    Hello everyone. I had a question regarding how a plant would translocate a mobile nutrient. Does it take a nutrient from a lower fan leaf on that specific branch? Or does it tend to take it from just the lower branches in general. I feel like it would be more energy efficient if a plant needed...

    Supercropping

    So i just had a quick question to see if anyone else might have come across this problem. It appears that the 2 branches that i supercropped have a slight nutrient deficiency as opposed to the other branches that seem to be fine. Is it possible that if the outside of the supecropped stem broke...

    Can leaves get 'tired'?

    Title is pretty much the question. Does anyone have any info on this? Can the chlorophyll in the plant get over worked and would the plant respond if that was the case? LED lights have become very powerful and especially for how close we put them. Then on top of that they are in the same place...

    Rooting Powder

    Ok so I know its a little bit of an older product but its what I have currently. I was wondering if anyone was aware of any tips/tricks or even guides to using this stuff effectively? Im messing around with a little cloning in just straight water and it seemed to work pretty well actually. I...

I really just want to find some good educational, and more on the sciency side, resources to read and learn from. It doesn't even have to be only about cannabis, but just sound advice for...

    Seed spouting problems

    Hello everyone. I recently germinated an auto (my first one) in the paper towel method and it seemed to take a little longer then my feminized seeds but it eventually grew its tail. Well I planted it like always in a solo cup and it seems to be growing incredible slowly. It hasn't broken the...

    I have an HLG question regarding 300LRspec and a 260w DIY kit

    Ok so i tried getting peoples opinions on the 300L but no one bit.

I need a nice efficient light for around the 300 some mark. I saw the heat...

    Anyone here ever have a plant that was especially hungry for calcium? I'm not asking for a diagnosis but it seems like this particular bagseed I'm growing really is calcium hungry. I know every strain is different when it comes to nutrient needs and sensitivity levels to those nutrients and...
