101 Already Asked Questions

puff puff no pass, thanks for saving me enough time to get chopped

Good fundamental info. Thanks!

I need to ask some questions that are not included in the 101, i went into the chatroom on here and was trying to ask people but they told me that it wasnt a grow support chatroom, then i asked how to get to one and they sent me this link....i just joined this site today so i didnt really know....but anyways my question is I have about 5 plants currently in the vege stage....there about 8 inches tall....ne ways my question issss ....i didnt have ne money when i went to try this whole grow thing out, so i just got my seeds from a bag of weed i bought on the street, i didnt buy them online...my question is i mean are they even worth growing??? they jus came from average mid grade pot.....i mean would my chances of getting some females still be about 50% im just wondering r they worth putting time and effort into?????? my other question is if i were to buy some seeds online and wanted to grow like 2 or 3 in my closet, what would be a sufficent amount of light like what watt?? and i guess id wanna go with LED's they seem to be pretty cheap??? i dunno ..i need hel,p with this first time grower here

hey peeps is this too early to tell or is this male or female .. not so sure myself i know its verry young but notice the things developing at the base of the leaves which i have circled

OK so I started with single seed / plant about 7-8 months ago. Now have 3 additional Females, however they are younger. Unfortunately I started sexing a batch of about 10-12 but turned out most were Not females. I was wondering if I go back to a 24 hour lighting cycle from a 12/12 cycle – will this traumatize the plants or will they just stop flowering? Also if I sort of mutilated part of one of the 1[SUP]st[/SUP] plant by taking buds off in all the wrong ways & places, but this luckily unintentionally made for several stalks. The whole thing now has 3 stalks of flowering areas now but one of the 3 doesn't seem to be growing at this time (or at least didn't with this last time that I sexed the plants), will that change at the next harvest? FYI this was this particular plant's 2[SUP]nd[/SUP] time being put into flowering stage (the 12/12hr cycle).

Anyway my main questions were:
#1 Roughly how many harvests can a single plant yield, like total? Or should you aim to keep reproducing New ones so that you can keep smaller plants moving / growing? I saw some guys tutorial which stripped every leaf off the plant, which I would guess is because he's not trying to re-grow that plant, is that correct?

#2 what (besides that which I've already done wrong) should I NOT do? Basically is there a “Daily or regular maintenance” guides? Or a top 10 Worst Mistakes you can make?

#3 Lastly will buds ever grow if a plant is not harvested or handled properly? And what is the best way to harvest (if you want to try to keep the plant for as long as possible)?

That was mainly everything I needed for now. Any guidance I could get on this strictly theoretical garden that I don't have but hope to get started soon, would be greatly appreciated. I know a lot of stuff is already in here (as far as answers) and I'll keep looking but I've read a lot and couldn't find answers to these couple of theoretical questions above...

Thanks & Best wishes to all.

Also BTW if this beloing in a different thread please feel free to relocate as needed but just let me know where it goes also? Thanks again

some one said i had 2many plants in 1 room and that i needed 2 put netting up 2 control all the branches so they all got the light they needed.does any1 have any advise or pics so i can see wat he means any help would be appreciated!!! thanks people

One of my favorite go-to articles if i have a simple question. Nicely Done! & Much appreciated!

Hello everybody! I am new to this forum and growing at all. Didnt want to open a new thread so posting here. I took some pics of my 1.5 week babies and would appreciate any feedback on how are they looking.
First 2 pics is a Holy Grail 69 samsara seeds, which I received for free with my order and obviously its not doing that great, comparing to the other seeds. The r all planted at the same time and growing in the same environment. anybody's got any idea what could be wrong with it?
3rd and 4th pics are 'Purple Haze #1' and 'Sugar Mango Ryder (auto)'.
I am growing in fox farm ocean forest soil mixed with 1/3 perlite under 24/7 400 watt MH (upgrading today to 1000 w) didnt give no nutes yet as I know the soil have plenty of them at least for couple of weeks.
So any input on my pics is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
PS. sorry about the quality the only camera I've got is in my cellphone.

Very informative. Thanks for sharing your idea with us.

alwways helpful
cheers

HOOOOOOly shit help me.

My " cotyledon leaves " are yellow. The baby ones

My young ladies are now 13 days old, have sprouted and the majority of them are working on their second set of bladed leafs.

They are all in Rock wool starter cubes - Feed at no less than every 12 hrs. with straight ph'd 5.8 RO water

My samples Within the rockwool, before watering again, have read 6.4 even though I first soaked in 5.5 for 12 -13 hrs.

??????

This is my question?

I am thinking about starting to add nutes at 1/4 streangth to help with the yellowing cotyledon leaves "

Or is the PH not in the right zone and thats what is causing the yellowing cotyledon leaves???


How do I fix this?

Using CFL 125 right now at 18/6 with 50 percent humidity

Do not feed any nutes until you have transplanted to a real medium and the plant is about a month old.. The yellowing cotyledon leaves is okay as long as the rest of the leaves have no yellowing to them, the baby leaves are only there to help the plant start and will die naturally regardless of how you feed it. Also 6.4 ph is closer to what you want than 5.8 if your gonna be growing in soil, but for now while they are in the cubes that ph shouldnt do any harm. What grow medium are you going to be using?

Its a good post but I can't find my answer...plants are 4 weeks n the dirt..small first time grow...when will my plants get the 5 finger leaves..other then that my plants are happy little ladies( I hope anyway)....big thanks

Thanks for all the help, this has all been really useful.

Really helpful thanks!
