what exactly is a guerrilla grow if you dont mind me asking?

Like Guerrilla warefare a Guerrilla grow is an Unconventional Covert Operation. The "State" has imposed upon us individuals an unjust prohibition. An as an Individualist who see's all Collectvists as my enemy, ive taken it upon myself to resist their tyranny at every step.

I have found that one way to fight my enemy is to act as an Agorist and participate in counter-economics, the black market.

is there anyway of gettin my plant to show either male or female now.... its about 5 to 6" tall but is bushy as hell any advise?

If you top it about the 6th - 8th node this usually makes the plant show Preflowers early.

I topped my seedlings and in a week or more after the plant regrows its 2 new branches you will see preflowers at the node by the stem.

i jus uploaded some pics if you wanna see it

If those are un rooted cuttings don't top them yet. If its a seedling wait about a week.

Looks like they are about 5 nodes tall.

I only top my young veg plants if they are in vigorous growth.

om kinda woried about it now cause it has little dark spots on the leaves and it aint growing much at all anymore.... i mean the leaves are still growing but as far as gettin taller its not growing any.... id like to be able to get it to grow like some people on here that say thier plant grows 1 to 2" a day

Sounds like you have a PH or Nute problem.

stoner93 · Jul 11, 2009

how do i fix that ?

Xare · Jul 11, 2009

You need to test the PH of the water and adjust it accordingly.

Do you even have a tester or nutes for your bubbler ?

stoner93 · Jul 11, 2009

no man like i said earlier im new to all this bubbler stuff and i really dont know what i need and to tell you the truth idk how to test the ph and dont even know what a nute is

Xare · Jul 11, 2009

Yep you have some research ahead of you.

Your bubbler is ok for rooting clones but you cant grow in it without Nutrients (nutes)

I suggest you read through this thread, its a very easy way to grow for someone just starting.

thanks man.... ill read through it and if i have any questions i ask

stoner93 · Jul 11, 2009

i dont really understand what he is sayin... does the bucket contain water or what? i dont really understand how it works and what he does that makes a plant grow

stoner93 · Jul 11, 2009

or how to actually make the "hempy bucket"

Xare · Jul 11, 2009

You can use any kind of container you want, something light proof is best.

I used a 2 liter and put a hole in the side 2 inches up. This creates a small rez for each pot.

You have to water the pots by hand with water that contains nutrients and at the right PH level.

stoner93 · Jul 11, 2009

so you dont use no soil or anything like that jus a bottle/bucket with a hole 2 inches from the bottom... how do you get the plant in it... and can you tell me what type of nutrience is best and also how to get the ph at the right level and how to test the ph and lastly how often do i water

Xare · Jul 11, 2009

Instead of soil you fill the bucket with perlite.

You transplant a clone into the bucket like you would with soil. With my setup I have to water every other day.

This is my journal for my hempy grow.

https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/210779-400-watt-2-liter-hempy.html

I use General Hydroponics Micro and Grow in the Lucas Formula. I also use a GH PH test kit to adjust my waters PH.

thanks man you have been a great help to me since i am new to growing.... lat question, i think, do you think that this is one of the easiest ways to start out growing indoors? what kind of lights should i use and how far away from the plant should they be?

i curently have a simple grow light from wal-mart and have it about 4 inches away

Xare · Jul 11, 2009

Yes the Hempy Bucket method is very good for a new grower. Growing in soil is harder then Hempy.

Ive used a florescent light for veg before but my 400 watt is much better. I keep it very close to the plants and heat has not been a problem.

About 6 to 8 inches away from the tops of the plants. If your light is a florescent 4 inches is ok.

stoner93 · Jul 11, 2009

what kind of 400watt light do you have and where can i get one, how much does it cost.... this is the last question and i promise ill leave you alone

Xare · Jul 11, 2009

I use a 400 watt High Pressure Sodium from HTG supply

$120

stoner93 · Jul 11, 2009

lol i see why it works... damn i jus thought of another question what kind of nutes do you us and how do you use it

Xare · Jul 11, 2009

I use the Lucas Formula for my Hydro Hempy's.

Its a ratio of General Hydroponics Floraseries nutrients:

I use 5ml Micro and 10ml of Bloom per Gallon of water.

Then Ph'ed to about 6.0
