Will pay for advice..best yield/highest profit margin

This is not necessarily true... Since you are supposed to flush your soil in last couple of weeks of flowering your soil should be leached of most of it nutes and salts, Now if your using chemical fertilizer I would not suggest this but if you are using organic fertilizer you can. It has to be composted so the roots biodegrade and the soil be amended but if done properly your soil can actually turn out better. Do some research on it, I have and most problems with reusing soil come from either using chemical ferts or not properly composting and ammending your soil.

In the pic below, my leaves are yellowing on bottom and brown spots. Its in like 3rd-4th week of flowering. Im using floranova GROW---im changing to bloom now.

Is it a nitrogen deficiency?

How are your plants coming along?
I also got a hold of some Cat piss, did not smell like it, but strong and cerebral. Trying to get a clone, grower of 6 years told me it has been his best yielder/potency ratio.

What strains you doing?

Mother room -7 plants 4 mothers and 3 misc vegging

Flowering i have 3 almost done and 7 on their 3rd week.

The autoflower one should be done soon--it was a bag --mids/regs

Now i have to make a carbon scrubber---even with all these highly rated forums- its still kinda hard.

Should i pull or push? Also im using a 8in inline fan, where do you even find connectors for 8 inches?

Just wondering how you doing Nick

I grow white widow and have about 2 weeks left on them they are doing great. I heard Cat piss is a good strain so if you can get it you should. yellowing fan leaves at the bottom are common during flowering and nothing really to worry about I pulled about a half dozen dead leaves off my girls just today. But the spots on the one in your bud look like a bit of nute burn so I would give it a good flush then let it dry out and give it a light feeding. Its common to have build ups of nutes about half way through flowering. For the carbon scrubber most people push through them but I don't know if it really matters I use an ozone generator so I never really looked into it. I have been looking into buying some seeds and I think Im going to go with some american breeders, Im looking at Subcool's seeds maybe jillybean, agent orange & vortex. Im also looking at some of elite genetics stains he does a lot of crosses with clone only strains. So Next time around I should have a good collection of plants. K I got to go to bed but keep me updated on how things are going!

gotcha-- thanks yea i got a lot of yellow leaves so ill be taking those off. where did you get your loop or microscope.

Also do you know of any good SOG strains that have a high yield/potency ratio?
Im going to check those subcool seeds.

Thanks for the tip

How do i know my plants are ready to harvest?

Where do i find these microscopes to view if thc is amber

I really dont remember where I got mine? had it for so many years... I pretty sure you can get them at most hydro shops and maybe even walmart. I don't even use mine anymore, actually Idon't know even where it is..You could just get a magnifier if you really want to look at the trichs but you should be able to tell just by looking at the plant. It will have an amber hugh to it like this and should look done


Here is a very informative thread that I got this pic from https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/111444-anyne-ever-smoked-overripe-buds.html Now you will have a lot of people who agree and disagree with this but from my experience its really hard to wait to long. Most people are in such a rush to get there harvest done they tend to cut there buds early. I suggest you try this little experiment if you can. Im guessing you have a a couple of plants from the same strain that are close to harvest? Take one or however many you want and harvest them when you think they are done then leave 1 or 2 flowering for at least a week (or 2) longer and see which one you prefer. If you find you like the buds you harvest first better or just as much then you know you picked it at the right time, if you like the bud that was harvested later then you know to wait longer next time. Hope that made sense (I probably just confused you more) But I just smoked a bowl of hash so forgive me if I didnt make sense.

just lurking so thought i'd say hello


i can understand about the harvesting part - especially if you have nothing good to smoke, waiting is hard

bro up tops got it right man make sure you dont chop to soon most of the THC is brought out in the very last days of flowering...this advice he gave you is one of the most key points that separates amazing bud from good bud. and its true even with a not so trained eye its easy to spot when its done when you think its done give it a day or two and watch the difference or if your pritty sure its done harvest a couple plants and let them dry in another room and let a couple flower a bit longer and watch your plant go white.. peace

For only 12 bucks you get a handscope, but its 60x-100x. is this too powerful, well the one that autoflowered is the only one i want to harvest.

Its been in this flowering stage for a while and i WAS scared that i am flowering too long, but from that link nick gave me, it would have to be really long to truly affect it.

cheap and it works from what i searched on this site.

I really want to grow Chronic now from Serious Seeds. I hear it's a great CASH CROP. Nick also loves Sweet Tooth which has been frequesntly mentioned. Also BIG BUD has rave reviews--

Just looking for a the best SOG/quality/quantity ratio--- Im guessing that no strain embodies all these qualities.

Thanks everyone for helping me out.

Oh i forgot to mention that if your crop has a big bud its not growing to potential... if you pull like a half ounce or so right from the top of the plant, it will grow right back extremely quickly and be more dense. This works because bud growth is stunted because not enough photosynthesis is occurring deep within the main stalk because it is sheltered from the light, when you cut off the top inner leaves are exposed and it grows very quickly again, your plant will also need more water if you do this so watch it... also for quality/quantity plant try sativa plants as they have very high yield and have amazing highs that people will come back to because they like it the catch is tho it takes longer to grow... but personally from my experience if you wait longer and go with the sativa it will be more profitable

if you ask this in seed and strain reviews section you will probably get a list from a few different people of good strains to do. Then look into the strains that they list and pic the ones you are most interested in.
