regular florescent lights wont work well on plants and using Miracle grow will work but the time release stresses plants ,what is your grow medium if you are in dirt watering twice a day is to much, a plant should take 6 weeks in veg if you are training it ,4 if you are not and then its 8 to 10 weeks in bloom ,I kept some for about 6 months when I first started growing and they hermied to , Was it a female seed ,read all the tutorials you can on gwe and try it again with a good light and some nutrients made for cannabis and you'll do alot better

First serious grow. Indica seeds from China. Indoor , five gal bucket, floresc lights 24 hours a day untill 12 on 12 off for five days to flower.CO2 generator, water w/ miracle grow twice a day.Germinated easy and took off. It gave every indication that it was female then when it flowered it grew pollen sacks everywhere. It's been five months nutureing and tending to it now I am gonna just kill it. How do I keep from repeating this . What makes it be able to be male and female?
What kind of sick sorcery is this.
Also what is the general consensus on "Bat gauno" for bud growth. I have heard mixed opinions. Stanky

I am growing DWC in a small grow box that measures 4ft tall , 16 inches wide and 9 inches deep. I have two plants growing at the moment, but unsure if I have the correct lighting. What would you suggest for the best lighting that isn't terribly expensive and can be used for the entire grow?
Thank you

Thanks for the shout Retodd mate. Peycke I feel your pain...they are bastards of the highest order, extremely difficult to keep under control, ruin plants and your whole day, lower yields, etc, etc. That`s the bad news. Good news is, they can be `managed`. I use a rotating selection of either, Neem oil, insecticidal soaps, SM-90, alcohol and water and now a pesticide whilst vegging. I run a perpetual harvest for 8 months of the year. I smoke a lot, build up supplies then shut down in the hot months. This year I picked them up early and have lost at least one poss two plants as well as lower yields. Yet, it`s when you see them happily spinning webs on your buds that you want to get a sledge hammer out and pound the little sods into the floor-repeatedly.
Anyway, my advice, hit them with the heavy stuff in veg, pesticides, insecticides, neem oil as there`s no buds. Then flowering I rotate the options as they build resistance and I paint the leaves to try and coat the eggs with neem or soap. Every bloody leaf I do-sigh. For buds, alcohol and water though they do get used to that. It is an unrelenting battle but you can keep their numbers down with robust and regular treatments. Also, beware of cross comtamination between rooms, tents, etc. They can be beaten but realistically, you will need to take a break to allow any unhatched to hatch and die. Best time to do this is hot weather which will make them come out to party. Sorry it appears bleak but you really have to dig deep not to get totally fed-up...I`m already at that point Also, watch out for what some folk claim to work, bleach and water submerged for 6 hrs was one barking idea someone was trying. Just don`t get anything on the buds and don`t make solids with the sugar leaves, etc as both will be coated by stuff best not smoked. I miss my solids. Pesticide bombs are good as well I believe...perhaps it`s that word bomb that is attracting me. Anyway, all the best mate and good luck.

Thank you for the replies!!
No timed release nutrients. It's just a no-brand bag packaged for the supply store. It's certainly not the same weight as soil from my outdoor garden, but I'm not sure if it'll pack down into "mud" after more water settles the material. They've only had limited water through the cups so far (less than 2 weeks old).
Ack, can't see how to reply on comments above (yet... )
