    first grow. help me out!

    Probably your best bet is to let them veg and watch for them to presex. This is usually when the plant is ready to flower. Most will do this. If they are already stressed don't worry about force sexing the lower branches. Just give them a few more weeks and then move them to a 12/12.

    first grow. help me out!

    First of all 4 days of strait light won't take them out of veg, but keep them veggin. Maybe some confusion there. Anyway's 18/6 light cycle is good for veg. If they are not showing any signs of pre flower at all, which would be a callax with two little white hairs sticking out of them, then...

    3 week old in 5 gallon?

    I don't know what maricle grow moisture control is but if it has been sitting outside for months and if you are growing inside I would probably invest into some new soil.

    400 watt hps grow

    Just wanted to add that good things come in time. Usually the more time the better it is. Anyways, my opinion: Just like purplehazin said, they do look alittle crowded, not at their current size, but once they start getting bigger and bushier they will fight upward for the light and that can...

    First Grow: Are My Girls Looking, Okay?

    Im a big fan of using HID lights for plants that are taller then a foot. If you give them enough light with the cfl's and T5's they shlould be ok. Just remember the more light you through at them during the flowring the better quality and denser bug you gonna get.

    Is this nutrient burn?

    All the othere posts pretty much nailed it. Don't Fert for the first few weeks. Let the plant tell you when it is ready for fert. It will start to turn a yellow color pale green when it lacks in N. A good early fert for seedlings is just B1 Thrive Alive or superthrive in moderation. Let...

    fungus gnats best way

    I don't know what these are called but they are a yellow bar about 6 inches long and 2 inches wide and maybe 3/4 inch thick. They have some kind of chemical that is time released and they will kill all the bugs good and bad in the grow room. But they do work on gnats to that nest in the...

    Using a Plastic Tub from wal mart for a resavoir...the proper way that worked for me.

    This is just something that I wanted to share with all who wanted to read this post. I decided to use the cheap but fairly tuff plastic totes or tubs from walmart or lowes for my indoor grow resavoir. I noticed after awhile algae did grow in side of it with out any kind of wrapping to block...

    a room without ventilation? question.

    You can grow good plants in a pantry like that, but you need ventilation. If you are using a HPS SOdium light, how many watts? A small 400W will not put off enough heet unvented to hurt any plants as long as you have a supply of fresh air to the room and an exhaust. This is important. The...

    How long to flush when using clearex?

    Just my 2 cents: I just harvested two plants that did not get flushed at all for whatever reason. I know they should be flushed properly, but they don't crackle and it is a very smooth smoke. I think as long as you get some sort of flush for a few days depending on nutrient levels and strain...

    Question on growing with rockwool

    First of all you need to soak your rockwool in water with the PH of the water adjusted to 5.3 for 24 hours. Rockwool comes with a hi PH so doing this will adjust it to the proper PH for growing. Take your seeds and germinate them in a wet paper tower with distilled water from store if you have...
