    Trichome color for harvest

    I dont know what others would say about this, and I'm a little curious myself, but this response is to the statement you made about not watering for 2 weeks. I wont counterpoint the part that flushing is important to some, but straight water will help the plant find all of those nutes in the...

    Auto AK, Auto White Russian - First Hydro Grow, day 60

    So my rookie Hydro grow is going well. I've been reading a lot over the past 2 years. After 2.75 grows, I thought I would be a little more "worthy" to post. I learned from reading the details in hundreds of posts, had success and thought I would be a little more technical with some of my...

    I plan on 70-75 days from the time the 1st set of leaves start to show. My last 2 WR grows went 75 days, and I chopped at 50/50 amber.

    Its a good question, but a little unfair to compare the two. There's huge variability between the same strain of plants that come from the same seed order. I have a grow going right now in hydro (pics will be in an upcoming post) where (2) auto AKs in the same flood tray one is 12" tall and I'll...

    I wont make this a true journal, but I would like to share my experiment. I'll take suggestions or input. (it's long, but I think it addresses the questions people may have about this grow...read on if you're interested!) I ordered 10 beans each from Dope Seeds about a year ago: Auto White...

    hermie seeds

    I'm posting this on the advanced grow section because I want some serious answers to this question. I've already discussed the situation on another thread. I want to try an experiment. (or see if others have already done it and want to share the experience). Right now, I've got (2) auto AK's...

    best autoflowering strain

    Here's a few shots of my autos at about day 56 from seed. Auto AK-47 on left, Auto White Russian on right. (Pic files say day 65, but i inverted my numbers) got 2 each and i think the AK's will need a week beyond the WR's to harvest. WR's are smaller at about 16-18" but the buds are solid, fat...

    Questions about hermies

    So, I am bummed. Got 4 hermies. I've know this for a while. Here's the long story, tried to make short: Details and specifics: Growing Autos: (2) AK-47, (2) White Russian. Soil, 2 gallon bags. Using FF Big 3. Feed 1 liter of water each, every other day. They get nutes every other watering...

    how would you set up this closet for a grow?

    so here's my 2 cents. you didnt provide dimensions, but it looks like a 400 w will work in terms of good coverage. You are going to need to deal with ventilation - (cool air in and hot air out) and odor control. So it's a little difficult to give too much advice on specifics. I was very...

    need opinion on 600hps set up

    I have a similar sized space and using a 400w with cool tube. same size fan w/ carbon filter. you shouldnt have any heat issues if the ventilation is set up properly. my comments on the cool tube is that if i could do it again, i may consider another type of air cooled reflector. i have the...

    leaving my grow while on vacation

    oh...and make sure that the drip stakes are above the water line of the reservoir....otherwise the pump will turn off and the water will just keep on flowing...just like syphoning gas.

    leaving my grow while on vacation

    i got this: Hydroport Watering Manifold. its got 8 outlets. bought some 1/4" line and some stake drippers. it was a little time consuming to get each dirp stake to distribute a similar amount of water, you use a screwdriver to adjust the flow. If i had some more time i would get a constant flow...
