Just read something that made me sick to my stomach. I've been using Johnson & Johnsons baby soap in my neem oil treatments for a few of my recent grows. I just read an article that says formaldehyde is in the shampoo but the company will be removing it shortly. Here is the link...

Im looking for ideas on a cheap vegging system. $200 is about what I want to spend.

Like I said, I have a $200 budget. I currently have a 3x3x7 tent that I am using strictly for flowering. Without getting too much into how I am vegging, I understand that I can't continue to do it the way that I am doing it. The space is too small to get the plants big enough for my needs...

Ok so take a look at this white rhino plant. It is just starting to flower. I wanted to fill you guys in on my knowledge of this plant do far so that anyone wanting to grow this in the future will have some info before they begin. In dealing with the strain from nirvana I have found that...

Hi, so this is my first harvest (if I ever get that far). I am not very knowledgeable as Please take a look at the pics. 2 days ago most of the leaves were alive. When the lights went on yesterday I checked on the plant and the trichomes on the top buds had turned amber overnight. I am pretty...

Wait, some ppl r saying to leave stems in order to wick moisture while others say excessive stems will cause a haylike smell. Can someone clarify?

Btw, I've seen some real killer microscopes at dispensaries that project onto a video screen. Those ones rock. But they cost $200

I bought the $12 microscope at radioshack but am still having a hard time viewing the trichomes. My main problem is it's extremely hard to hold that microscope steady enough for 60-100x viewing without damaging the buds. Does anyone have any tips on how they use it? I also bought a 30x jewelers...

I started blooming nutrients and 12/12 light exactly 43 days ago. When I look at 40-45 day old plants online I'm seeing more developed plants. Here are a few pics of mine, did I somehow miscalculate? This is Chem Dawg:

Just added pics. These girls are stretched because I first attempted to use one T5 that I bought from Lowes. It was really weak. Anyway the plants do seem to be responding now.

I picked up this shelf at Lowes a few weeks ago and it's just awesome. Lightweight, inexpensive, sturdy, and it's really easy to assemble. It cost about $20 and came in beige, white and black. Although the picture doesn't show it, this shelve is made of milk crate material. The one I bought has...

My bulb is 3500k lumens. So if I get one more it'll be at 7000k. Will that grow a dense structure for flowering? How long does it usually take to get a plant up to a foot using this method? I'm using FF feeding schedule at 1/2 strength. I don't know because I've only ever used a 400w MH...

I'm talking about 1 fixture w 1 light. In not sure about lumens. I will definitely look into getting it up to 65k. If I can get this little room to grow a somewhat dense structure that stands 12" tall I will be all set.

I appreciate the advice. I have obe blooming in there right now. Just started the cycle. I have 3 plants that I would say have just started their vegetative stage. Roots at bottom of solo cups, but not coming out of the hole (good tip btw, makes sense). I just gave them nutrients for the first...

Will one T5 grow clones to 12 inches?

Ok, so here's my situation. I have a large space 3x3x7 for flowering. However, my vegging area is a little small. About 15 inches on height would have to include the medium. I am wondering what do you think would be the best way to veg the plants in that amount of space? I have a t5 in there...

I have a PPM meter ($20). It's not deadly accurate, but if it's in the ballpark (within +/- 50) it shouldn't make a difference. My plants seemed to be doing fine but at a certain point the plants just stopped taking in nutrients. They were pretty healthy up until that point. Here is the grow...

I realize I'm digging up an old thread here, but I was searching for an answer to a similar question so what the hell? I could really use some help, as I lost 2 plants to nutrient lockout recently. It was my first grow so I'm almost certain I screwed something up. On the Fox Farms feeding chart...

Alright so when I checked on them last night the leaves were all completely limp but still damp and green. I emptied the nutrient water and gave them fresh buckets with straight tap water. They don't come out of the night cycle for awhile so I don't know yet if they can be saved. I noticed a few...

Ok, I'm at my wits end on a new problem I am having. So I still am not seeing any progress on the plants. The buds are not changing and nothing appears to be growing. So, last week I changed the reservoir. Adding 2 tsp per gallon of the FoxFarms tiger bloom as usual. Then, the next night I...
