What is your biggest question about growing cannabis?

[90Gizmo]

Everything I can find says "the canopy" and the "to much light" pictures shows fan leaves. Still leaves me wondering whether the primary apical cola can withstand greater light.

[90Gizmo]

Is it more important to get 40 DLI on the flowers above the leaf canopy or on the leaf canopy itself?

people are there 24 hours a day, 7 days a week ! Yes ! Personally I have been growing for almost 30 years and only regulars. Rarely feminized and NEVER auto.
I even prefer to do my seeds But my wife's brother has also been growing for 17 years... he knows how to be 100% involved in automatics. It cultivates 24h under 24h with 1200w HPS (I am trying to convert it to LEDs...) Its electric bill is very salty Many plants (chemically tampered with or not) are indoors in a particular area where we create the conditions for OURSELVES. Several parameters play from stress to over-fattening or poor management. Not to mention the origin of the Seeds. Because some Breeders don't mind the chemical side and profitability by selling poor seeds. Some are not even Breeders but just seed dealers buy wholesale... Even if a female can seal it doesn't matter
When you play sorcerer's apprentice you have to have a little unforeseen!!!

Maybe it is "WPM" - Try reading this full article.. & check the pics to compare with your plants ... https://www.growweedeasy.com/cannabi...powdery-mildew

I have two plants about a foot tall. The new growth has white on the tips of new leaves. I do not have mealy bugs. What would cause this? I use good water and banana fertilizer. Thanks for the info.

Indeed!

A lot of us would luv to find the real deal old school skunk!

Who is Doc Brown from the 80's? Man u makin' me feel old, stop that.

[Jroc]

Thanks for the response but who's Doc Brown and to Mr. Doc Brown can you please step up to the forum? 😂 there is an APB out for the real SKUNK

[User420111]

The skunky skunk? That's lost in the 1980's. Doc Brown might be able to help you get some

I have had 6 out of 7 pop from ILGM but the strain I ran (Super Skunk) has no Skunk 👃 at all. It has a nice sweet smell and is good but not what I was looking for.

Not meaning to go off topic but does anyone know which seed bank has the real skunk with smell included 😂. Not bashing ILGM bit where is the skunky skunk?

Happy Growing to y'all

Never had a problem from ILGM. Their CS is excellent.

Has anyone had trouble with ilgm my seeds didn’t germinate they were very nice and sent another batch of twenty seeds so out of forty seeds I got 3 the first time and 2 the second time wonder if it’s me or purple kush

I haven't yet. 100% germination rate even on three year old seeds. Just order another 10.

I agree on the cheap PH meters- having gone through the same thing. 3 berries is very right in that there is no calcium or other components such as magnesium in it. I hesitated but will offer some info based on science that somehow I expect others to argue. the condensate water from a dehumidifier is distilled and quite corrosive so it absorbs many chemicals and metals and even stuff in the atmosphere like crazy. for example, if left in open air, even the CO2 from the air will lead to the PH dropping (CO2 leads to carbonic acid) in distilled water. I know people do it, but it can easily lead to issues depending on the plants watered and the soils you use. the distilled water can test at one ph and as soon as it gets in with whatever medium, in this case soil, it will effectively drop significantly as things are basically disolved to end up in the water. distilled water is actually quite corrosive and not buffered by "stuff" normally in water so it can change quickly and aggressively. i dont know what the metal from the coil (usually aluminum) will do to cannabis but pretty much guaranteed it will be there. as a side example of it's affect -when used in an aquarium, adding PH 8 distilled water actually can drop the ph of the aquarium by 2 or 3 easily depending on how much of it is added compared to the total volume of the tank.

I went to rain water vs my hard well water two years ago and tents and new LEDs. Had a terrible time but what was really the problem was I was giving it no calcium where it was getting it from the hard well water, though not enough as it turns out. Yellowing of the new growth has always been a problem.

But this year I started using the Calcium Chloride in a 1200 ppm mix and top dressing whenever the yellow tips showed up on the new leaves. In the past I always thought that was nute burn and would reduce the nutes and it slowly kept getting worse. I also started using langbeinite in the soil as part of the mix and that provides ample KSO4 and MgSO4 in a natural slow release water soluble form.

I also have very high CO2 levels in the winter. So it was all working against me. But now I'm doing daily 3/4 top dressings with the liquid mix and they are going to town. Two into flower now and one with the white hairs. If the new tips don't yellow I'll cut back on the Ca. But basically that's the sign I'm watching.

The LEDs too close now is canoeing the upper leaves but no bleaching. And you can't use KOH with the CaCl2 or it just falls out as CaOH lime. So back to Potassium Bicarbonate.
