    Supercropping Main Stem During Flowering: Can It Be Done?

I reeeeeaaaallllly had to put some strength to crush the stems between my fingers but i got the job done. 2nd time supercropping. Gets easier every time...

    Supercropping Main Stem During Flowering: Can It Be Done?

    on another note i keep screwing with the light times of the flowering plants sometimes by an hour or more. since i'm using the gavita pro 1000's they are 240v and theres no cheap way to find a timer with a 240v outlet. I would have to buy a box that has outlets for multiple 240v lights that has...

    Supercropping Main Stem During Flowering: Can It Be Done?

    i just don't think i can do it. i supercropped 12 plants yesterday that were around 3 ft tall, but this 4 ft + is a monster plant. The 3 main stems are extremely stiff and woody. I just feel like its too far along to supercrop and the stem will just snap. I really can't afford to lose another...

    4 ft Plant Suddenly Goes Limp. Immediate help needed

    haven't been on the threads in a while, but didn't want to leave this post open-ended. the reason the plant died was because it was sustained only by a rapid rooter in hydroton. The weight of the plant was too much for the rooter with no support. It was always shifting very badly and i ignored...

    4 ft Plant Suddenly Goes Limp. Immediate help needed

    so i got home and the plant still looks like crap. perhaps even worse. its such a shame. . . vegging that plant to 4 ft tall took forever, and now its going in the garbage. I'm not even contemplating taking clones off of it. They would certainly not survive. I searched all over the internet and...

    4 ft Plant Suddenly Goes Limp. Immediate help needed

    thanks for everyone chiming in. i'm gonna try some hygrozyme when i get off work to see if that does anything, but its looking REALLY bad. I also think it may be contamination, but I don't see how I could have harmed it. Roots are healthy, smell like potatoes, and not slimy at all. Does anybody...

    4 ft Plant Suddenly Goes Limp. Immediate help needed

    its in water and i top off with water every other day. nothing got shut off. airtubing was still attached. shouldn't be from lack of oxygen either since there are huge roots and the water level is below the rockwool.

    I'm using 5 gallon DWC buckets and I was just about to clone this 4 ft tall girl (mother plant still in veg), then I came home from work 8 hrs later and all the leaves are completely limp and lifeless.

    500W Blackstar Grow

    The plants realized they had been grown for a purpose like lambs to the slaughter and in a selfish act of rage smoked themselves up until there was nothing left but ash. Fucking plant rage. Lost 3 crops to that shit.:-P I had to. Just browsing and happened to see an unfinished ending. . .

    general noob help on stunted growth

    they're in a flood and drain. pump kicks on every 4 hrs. it takes 30 min to fill the tray up 1-2" from the bottom of the rapid rooter plug they're in. so no, the water drains back down. i'm using the h&g feeding schedule. matter of fact i'm actually a few weeks behind their schedule since it...
