Not meant to be a sob story, but I've chatted and talked with over the years some great folks I have met online here and other places who have given me great tips on growing. Without some of those tips I've gotten right here, I would not be have the grower I am. But the fact remains, I still...

Had a good harvest a few weeks back. This pic was day 71 harvest day. These are 4 chocolopes in a 4x4. 10 gallon pots. ocean forest soil grown with GH trio. Using an AC Infinity ionframe evo8 lights. Big hard heavy buds, full of terps. Now they are dried, and it looks like I netted just over 26...

Haven't posted in a while, hope everyone's grow is going great. Looking for advice on automating watering. I grow in soil only, generally sticking with the GH trio of artificial nutes. I've been growing that way for about 5 years now, and I've really not done it any other way. I don't feel I...

Obviously there is a reason to cure when you are smoking the bud, but does curing time apply if you're making edibles? I like to make canna butter, but I always wonder if waiting to cure matters or if I should just make the butter right after drying? thoughts?

So I've been growing probably about 4 years now. Up until this last grow, I've been using the GH trio for nutes with FFOF or FFHF soil. Had pretty good results. Decided with this last grow, to try my hands at an organic fertilizer and see how that goes. For this last grow, I'm growing me...

So for the last several years, I've been growing with old viparspectra lights, those old style red and blue bulb led lights with the built in fans and everything, cheap lights, probably a 10 year old design by now. They had no dimmer, so I would position them about a foot or a foot and a half...

I've gotten some good recommendations in the past here, so I'm looking for one more. What is the best tool you use for measuring the PH of your soil? Say its the day after watering and you are concerned about where your PH is heading, and you don't want to wait several more days until you...

so I grow in three 4x4 tents, 4 plants in each, 10 gallon pots. i try to water all the plants in a particular tent at the same time, unless one plant is being particularly difficult. Usually on different nights, I water different tents, and some nights I dont water at all. Typically it seems...

I have a weird problem with my current grow. Growing some Gold Leaf, this is on day 44 of flower. I grow in soil, using happy frog with 30-40% extra perlite as my medium. Using the GH trio formula recommended on this board for quite some time, ph'ing down each time to about 6.5-6.7 or so...

I don't know quite what to make of this. This is purple haze just a few weeks into flower. grown in some happy frog soil on the GH Trio. Seems one stalk at some point became some kind of freak twin. The stalk looks like two conjoined stalks and there are two buds growing at the top. Sort of like...

I run into this issue from time to time. I have generally tried to use the same formula for growing this year. I've been growing in happy frog, with extra perlite and some dolomite lime, I water only when dry, all the good things I've learned here. Often times, I start out in a solo cup...

Hi all, been a while since I last posted. Have had a few successful harvests since then, using alot of the advice I found here. I have this jack herar that is on day 19 of veg. I moved it from a solo cup into a 3 gallon pot on day 11. It is in some happy frog with dolomite lime and some...

Hi all, i'm back with my next grow, so far things looking good, but this morning I noticed some weird spots on one my plants. This is my super skunk, she's on day 27 of veg. I have her in a 50/50 mix of ocean forest and happy frog, with 30% perlite and dolomite lime in the initial mix...

I'm looking to make my next soil mix. On my last grow, I had lots of watering issues and drainage issues. On my current grow, I'm growing in FF Ocean Forest with 20% perlite mixed in. Overall, its worked great, I'm about a month or so from harvest on some jack herars that have done great...

This is some Chocolope on day 39 of veg. Using Ocean Forest soil with added perlite. Using GH trio with calmag. Temps around 70. Basically these leaves started to go brown about a week ago. A few weeks ago, I underwatered her for an extra day, she didnt like it, and some of the leaves...
