Thanks guys. Kind of thought that would be the answer but it's nice to confirm. All that amber threw me for a loop.

Hey all - I have a Strawberry Deisel plant that is only on day 55 of 12/12. Soon I have to leave town for five days. My plan had been to let it ride and harvest when I get back. Looking at trichomes, I'm seeing a lot of amber. It's either chop tomorrow or wait a week. What would you do? The...

That's great to hear. Thanks much!

You could be right about this. I always water at 6.2 but have never tested runoff. Being in soil, I didn't think it was crucial but then I'm very new at this. Is it even worth trying to correct at this point?

Thanks for that. I think the strain is supposed to be 50/50 but you're right about the slender leaves. Temps are tough this time of year. Maxing out at 82 right now. I'll probably have to dry around 70. Like a wise man once said, waiting is the hardest part.

9-10 weeks. This is day 54.

Yes, just lower leaves. I stopped feeding about ten days ago. Since then, the plant has turned very purple. I'll probably just ride it out from here. Appreciate the input!

By that do you mean water until there is a lot of runoff?

Thank you both for your replies. I water every 4-5 days, typically between 2 and three quarts. I feed every other watering. I've never really had much in the way of runoff. I probably should do a heavy watering and test what comes out. She always has looked on the verge of being overfed to me. I...

Hey all - Long time reader, new to growing. I'm on my 2nd attempt, with a Strawberry Diesel plant on about day 45 of 12/12. The plant has always seemed bushy and healthy, but over the last couple days I've noticed a couple of the lower leaves turning spotty and pale. My phone camera doesn't...

I gave them Tiger Bloom because I thought I saw preflowers on them yesterday. As it turns out it was just new growth. It was a very low dose so I'm not that concerned about it. I'm sure it was just one of many mistakes I've made. They seem to be very forgiving though. I'll give them another...

Hey everyone, total noob here just leaning the ropes. This thread is great and I really appreciate all the info here. It's a little cumbersome with everything in one thread, so I had to skip half of it to be able to ask my question. Sorry if this was dealt with a hundred pages ago. Here goes...

TokingKing, you were absolutely right. I replaced that outlet, tested it on a tester and now everything works fine. I would +rep you, whatever that means but I don't know how. I'm not very net savvy. Anyway, looks like I'm good to go. Many thanks.

If anyone has a good recommendation for an LED fixture to use in a 24" x 24" area, I might be in the market for one.

Hmmm. That's interesting TK, thanks. So would you guess that replacing that outlet might help? I can do that easily. Maybe I need to check all the plugs.

You're totally right of course. I'm kicking myself now for that decision. And it makes no sense to go buy a new Lumatek ballast if I likely can't even use it. Looks like I'm headed the T5 route. Don't even know if I want to bother.

Yeah, I don't own the place so updating electrical would be impossible. Landlord is cool with me though, he saw my mushroom grows in years past.

Thanks Snafu, I kind of figured that would be my only option. I had really hoped to use an HPS, but it looks like I won't be able to until I move. It just seems like a 250 shouldn't be that much of a problem. One other thought. My HPS light is not a well-known brand. It's some cheap...

Hey everyone! I've been lurking for a good while and I can't thank you all enough for the information here. I've never grown before but always dreamed of it. What smoker doesn't, right? Anyway now that I'm single, living alone, and have money I decided to start puting things together. My...
