    No frost?

    This sativa is growing right next to 2 indicas and the indicas are doing well. They are a lot shorter, though but they are frosty as hell. The sativa doesn't seem to have any frost. Is that just because sativas take longer to flower? This one has been flowering for more than a month now. I...

    Trichome Production SATIVA vs. INDICA

    I know that sativas have a longer flowering period. I was wondering whether they also take longer than indicas to show trichomes? I have noticed more visible resin on indicas than on sativas. They're about the same age though. Do sativas grow trichomes later? And are their calyxes generally...

    Hydro Nutrients Reviews

    Not sure if anyone has started something like this before, but I'm just curious as to what hydroponic nutrients the majority of you guys uses and where you have ordered/bought them. I'm sure this thread is going to help people make up their minds when it comes to buying nutrients. I'm just...

    Please take a look at this...

    I think my ph was off for a while. I tested it and it was around 4.5 so that could really be the reason. But the ph has not always been off and the plants show several different symptoms such as soft, dark green leaves, dry leaves, completely yellow leaves that are also were soft and just...

    Can I use lemon extract to add flavor to the buds?

    Or does that stuff contain high levels of acid which will kill the plant right before harvesting, causing me to commit suicide after devoting so many months to growing this plant with a level of commitment unmatched by any other first grower and an amount of skill second to no other grower but...

    Would you harvest this?

    I lost track of how long it's been flowering. I'm using CFL lights. It still has plenty of white hairs and a few very orange ones. Should I wait until absolutely all of the hairs are orange? Can someone post some pictures of plants that are ready to harvest so I know what they look like? Thanks

    Can clones be too old?

    I cut a branch off of my plant which is 3 weeks into flowering. you can see the white hairs on that branch. I cut it and planted it. Is 3 weeks into flowering too late to clone? there wasnt really any real bud on the branch.

    So does lollipopping really lead to a bigger harvest?

    Should I cut off all the branches to the point where I topped the plant a few weeks ago and where it is now branching off or should I grow some bud from the lower branches as well? The former is called lollipopping. Does it really work?

    How should I prune this plant?

    The plant used to have a few more nodes, but I cut off some of the bottom nodes. Now I got 5 branch-offs left and was wondering if I should continue cutting. The fifth branch-off is where I topped the plant. Picture is attached. How much should I remove, given those numbers on the image?

    Light burn

    The top of my plant was touching a 42W bulb (cfl) for about 10 hrs and now the part that has all the pistils sticking out of it is somewhat burnt and brown. I can't upload any pix until later today as I am writing from my cell phone. Do plants normally recover from burns? Thanks
