    I know people use the tank heaters in areas that get very cold during the winter, or are always very cold. Keeps the cold water from freezing and / or shocking the plants. I mostly depends on climate, but they do have their uses in growing bud. I used one before on a different project, and...

    Whats happening to my girls?!

    Seriously guys... sugar? He doesn't even know what his pH is, and your telling him to add sugar?! Codeinek, skip the sugar. Don't do that. You need to check your pH before you add anything else. Without knowing your pH and ppm/EC, you don't know what is going on with your plants. Adding sugar...

    plz help

    My bad... I was thinking in hydro mode, not soil. For soil: 6.8 is the absolute highest you want to go. The pH safe-zone for soil is between 5.8 and 6.8. It's best to stay somewhere in the middle to get the best uptake of all the nutes you're providing. I would recommend about 6.3 to 6.5 At...

    Buy a pH meter. That is likely your issue. Until you rule out the pH problem, there is little advice we can give you.

    plz help

    Looks healthy from the pictures. Some strains smell exactly like a skunk, so it might just be a skunky plant. Don't think it's an issue. You typed you had your pH at 6.8. Did you mean 5.8? If you did mean 6.8, you should lower it to 5.8.

    What growing medium are you using? Is that just rockwool and clay pellets? If so, you should be watering more than once a day. Those pellet only hold water for a few hours and your roots might be drying. What do your roots look like? Can you take a peek? Also, would recommend a slightly lower...

    Will this work for two plants ?

    Agree 100%. If you are looking to go LED, the lowest and cheapest I can think of is the 90w "UFO." I have one I use for clones, but even that would barely flower 2 small plants, and the buds will still be loose. You might want to look into CFLs also. My recommendation is save yourself the...

    Super Lemon Haze won't flower!!

    UPDATE: I went ahead and pulled the SLH last week, with the exception of 1 that I left in the corner and out of the way just to observe Glad I did it. The 1 SLH I kept is still flowering like crap. It has about 3 buds on it that look like they just started week 2. I'm now in week 7. I was...

    help on advanced nutrients

    I use: Sensi A+B Piranha Big Bud Bud Candy B-52 Overdrive I use a cheap silicate sold at my hydro store instead of using Rino. Works great. You also don't need Final Phase... Just use water if you plan to flush your plants. Works just as well. There is still a lot of debate over weather...

    Figured why not post some pictures, right! This was taken when I first put the clones in. They Vegged for about 2 Weeks. Right now, They are in the middle of Week 2 of bloom. I'll put some recent ones up soon. They got really big, really fast. Strain: Super Lemon Haze

    AN's Bud Candy Vs. Epsom Salt .... Is there a difference?

    I'm slowly coming to the same conclusions. Think I'm going to invest some time in researching all the chemicals I'm using and finding alternate and cheaper ways of acquiring them. Seems like the only benefit to using AN is the ease of measurement when adding stuff, but fuck that. I can do...

    AN's Bud Candy Vs. Epsom Salt .... Is there a difference?

    Epsom Salt is cheap and is used increase the levels of Magnesium and Sulfur. The word "Salt" often discourages people from using it because people confuse it for Sodium Chloride. If you are having Magnesium problems, I would recommend trying some Epsom Salt. It's like $2 dollars for a shit...

    AN's Bud Candy Vs. Epsom Salt .... Is there a difference?

    OK... I think AN might have changed their formula for Bud Candy. I probably have the old one. The new label has a goofy looking kid with cotton candy, and the one I have looks like a bunch of crystal covered pink berries. The only thing mine says is Magnesium Sulfate and doesn't have all the...

    AN's Bud Candy Vs. Epsom Salt .... Is there a difference?

    I am using AN's Sensi A/B Bloom with a number of other additives fed by ebb & flow in a 4x4 tent with 2 x 600W HPS lights. Looking at the ingredients of the product "Bud Candy", all it said was in it was Magnesium Sulfate... aka... Epsom Salt. Is there anything else in this stuff, or am I...
