    2 Problems

    Ok, you can read more about this in my grow journal, but some of the leaves are turning yellow. Not in spots, but select leaves are evenly getting yellow. Also, 2 leaves have white spots on them. I'm not sure where it came from or what it is. It could be nothing, but rain didn't wash it...

    Soil Preparation

    My niece's grandpa told me that if I'm going to grow outdoors I should fill the soil with potato peels a few months before I'm ready to plant. He said the year he first tried the potato peels, he had trouble hiding the plants because they got so big. Has anyone else tried this? Does...

    Canadian Outdoor

    I was just reading in another thread about the decrease in daylight time triggering flower, and first frosts. I live in Southern Ontario, so parts of the US are further north than I am. I was just wondering, if it starts to get too chilly outside while my plant is budding, would it be safe...

    Resin Soil

    Ok, well recently I noticed that instead of a seed sprouting into a plant, something else decided to grow on the soil. This is only one of the seeds I have starting, but this is the only place I found this weird problem. They look like black trichomes, and they aren't sticky. I've been...

    My mutant grow

    It's a bit late in the growing to start a journal for it, but I have enough pictures to make this first post pretty informative of the development so far. Which also means, this first post will have a lot of pictures. My buddy bought a bunch of seeds (Hawaiian, Butterscotch, G-13) and...

    From Seed to Sprout

    I just have a quick question about seeds. I know how to germinate, and I already have 3 seeds that popped open that I planted. 1 in flower store soil (the stuff their flowers come in) 1 in potting soil 1 in a peatmoss puck I was wondering about the cheapest and easiest way to get...

    Free bug control

    I know of a couple different home brewed bug sprays, but I was wondering if there's a way to lure spiders to my plant? I only get a bug once or twice every few days, so I don't want to be spraying my plant for a problem that's not too big. A resident spider would be safer, but none have...

    First grow from seed

    Ok, first off, I don't know what type of weed it is, and I can't find out where the seeds came from. My dad found out I was growing a pot plant, so he gave me the seeds he's had for a while. He tried growing over a year ago, and couldn't get the seeds to germinate, so I don't expect him to...

    Cloning without hormones

    Ok, I searched, and perused many threads and can't find one on this topic. Is it possible to clone a plant without a rooting solution? Will the clipping try to develop roots on its own? I don't have any rooting solution conveniently available to me but I want to take 2 branches off my...

    Early sign?

    Ok, so up until now the only thing my plant has done is grow new leaves. It's just starting to grow the first sets of 5-bladed leaves. I checked today, and saw these in a few places. I don't want my plant doing anything until it gets at least a foot tall. I don't mean the stipules...

    Hemp

    I was wondering how easy it is to obtain hemp seeds. Just about everywhere I know of that sells marijuana seeds, are seeds for bud plants. I'm interested in starting to grow hemp if I can, for eating and making things from. Can someone point me to a good source for hemp seeds?

    Cloudy Days

    Hi everyone, I was wondering how plants respond to cloudy days. With all the weather pattern changes in my area over the passed few years, we've been getting a lot more cloudy days. Not exactly rain clouds, although it's been raining a lot more the passed few years. These clouds just replace...

    Germination methods

    Hi everyone. I just came into ownership of 25 seeds. I know about the paper towel method and I'm doing that for 3 seeds I don't expect to pop. I have 3 other seeds germinating in 3 different mediums. I'm using peat moss, potting soil, and bark fibre. In each case, I filled a small planter...

    Don't know what I'm growing

    Ok, so I have this plant, and I was told it was either going to be butterscotch or hawaiian. The guy who gave me the plant wasn't sure which one he gave me. Now there's a small chance it's the only g-13 he managed to get a seedling from. Can you tell from these pictures which strain it is...

    Need diagnosis

    Ok, my plant is starting it's 4th week of life and the leaves at the bottom are starting to wilt and die. The bottom two leaves are just about completely dead, and the 2 above them are starting to show signs they'll do the same. I was worried about the quality of soil and nutrients used in...

    Quick newbie question

    I hate starting new threads, but I just need some quick advice. This is the first time I've grown my own plant. I have my plant in the middle of my backyard where I think it will get the most light. I've given it a cup, or half cup of water every couple days when the soil seems dry (I dig...
