    What nutrient burn is this?

    I threw some of my composted soil (not sure exactly what was in there but mainly fruits, vegetables, egg shells and bread) into my pots for this grow just to see how it would go. Now I’m starting to see some twisting leaves and browning/drying. Not sure what nutrient is causing this and how to...

    Is one of my kolas maturing faster?

    I have an outdoor purple punch that’s in week 8-9 of flower and one of my kola suddenly looks way closer to harvest than the others on the same plant. In the two pictures I shared you can see the pistls are brown and dropping on one, while the other picture shows little to no dropping. I’m...

    The count down!

    Week 8 of flower and my buds are looking pretty mature. Would love to get some opinions on how much longer I should let them go before I chop. trichomes are just starting to get cloudy and 2 out of every 10 pistils are amber and curling. My guess is another 2-3 weeks.. Here are pics

    Topping after LST

    Does anyone top after training? I was thinking of letting my photoperiod go to 6-8 nodes, tying the main stem down to one side to expose the lower branches, then topping the plant to drive growth to the lower branches I just exposed. Thoughts on this technique?

    LST then Top, then top each side branch?

    Curious to see if anyone has tried this with success. In this approach I would LST first, then top the main branch after it has been bent down. Then once the 4-6 side branches have developed into equal main colas I would top each of them to double the number of colas again 4-6 to 8-12. Seems...

    When to defoliate?

    Looking to defoliate/lollipop and I want to know if I should defoliate during veg then flip to 12/12 or change the light schedule first then defoliate, or wait until I start to see buds to defoliate. My main goal is density, smell and potency, not yield. Open to any ideas and different...

    About to take some cuttings from my plant while I lollipop. What is the ideal size for cuttings? I’ve heard small cuttings usually take longer to root, I’m just looking for a general range.

    Tips for helping a plant overcome transplant shock.

    I just transplanted my root bound lady from a small plastic container to a 3 gallon fabric pot. Unfortunately she was super root bound and I had to pull (I heard some tearing) on the roots to untangle the root ball. I did sprinkle some Real Growers Recharge into the space i was transplanting...

    How do you deal with hydrophobic soil?

    Which grows better (yield & potency) - greenhouse or direct sunlight?

    Just a question from someone looking to try growing in their backyard. Both would be grown in the same place in the backyard and would receive the same exposure to the sun. Thoughts?
