    Is my room too hot?

    short answer: yes, it's too hot. Temps should hover in the high 70s - max, then low 70s when the lights are off.

    2 weeks into flowering PICS

    the leaves at the bottom are drying out...is that normal? I've been told not to overwater..but maybe i'm underwatering? or could this be something else?

    what to do with males?

    i just cut down 5 male plants. it feels like such a waste to throw them out after all that effort. is there anything salvageable? low-grade hash maybe?

    how can i bulk her up? PICS

    lighting was close, but dull. they were my father's old grow lights from the 70's...not very powerful. i was told they'd be fine for veg, but i guess this is what you get. anything i can do at this point?

    how can i bulk her up? PICS

    my plants are 4 days into flowering and just under 2 feet tall (see pics). i think they're looking rather thin - all of the off shoots have one leaf - they don't split off and double like other plants i've seen...what is the secret to accomplishing this? (not interested in tipping or fimming...

    flowering 3 days - too early to sex?

    I'm only in day 3 of flowering and it's already become clear to me what's female and what's male. It's my first grow, so maybe i'm missing something since i've read you can only tell after 7-10 days. but the girls have white hairs and the boys have pollen sacks. is it too early to throw the...

    2 days into flowering and plants starting to wilt

    my grow space is tricky - it's 18 inches by 8 feet, so i hung the light at roughly 5 feet to cover as much area as possible.

    2 days into flowering and plants starting to wilt

    i started flowering 2 days ago...switched up my mh lights for a 400w hps. half of my plants (the bigger ones) seem to be adjusting fine...the smaller ones have started to droop. the temp is good, humidity is good, ph is good...the only variable is the light and distance to the light - right now...

    ph level too high

    Hi, My plants are about a month old and they're starting to wilt. I think it's the PH level. I don't know about the soil, but the water is at 7.4 - way too high, I know. What's a quick fix? Anything I can add to the water/soil?

    time to harvest? PICS

    I know it's not ideal...trust me. But i wasn't about to jeopardize my vegging plants and I only have one grow space. Given that this is where they're at should i just harvest and see what comes. Or give them another couple weeks? My camera sucks, this is the best I can do...sorry.

    time to harvest? PICS

    I acquired outdoor plants about 2 weeks ago. They had been flowering for about a month and were forced into an indoor environment, along with my vegging plants, on an 18/6 cycle and haven't done much since. It's hard to know if they're ready to harvest. The buds are puny (but so are the...

    pruning to increase production

    i'm not looking to prune, just top - i guess i used the wrong terminology. Here's the thing...topping just creates two colas whereas i've seen plants that have 8 or 10. How is that achieved?
