I grew my 1st(a pair) autos this season. After germination, I moved them to about a half gallon pot, then to the final 2gal pots. Should their final pot size have been larger. I could put my next autos of the same AMS SUPREME auto seeds in these 7gal fabric bag with something like only 4...

Hello, I have a question about the trimming/drying/curing process. My plant is cut down. I'm about done with the trimming phase, but when I trim, I find it easier to trim down to individual buds. This means I'm unable to hang them to dry. Plus, I'm dealing with <20%RH. This makes my buds dry too...

After spending ~$1000 over 4 years of growing(still a rookie, though), I still haven't bought a magnifier. I was looking for advice.

Here's my plants at just over 9 weeks. The place says 7-9 weeks to harvest for these AMS Supreme seeds. Would you harvest when trichomes were cloudy white or amber? Both plants born same time but plant in 1st pic seems a little further along.

Hello, two days ago I flushed one of my autos b/c I believed I had nitrogen issues. A few of the leaves were looking sickly. See 1st pic of those leaves. Well, two days after I flushed, and now, several of the leaves look like those in the pic. I just read an article on flushing, and it says...

I'm surprised I have this. I've been mixing my nutes lightly, and only feed every other time. Both these same strain of autos are watered and fed the same way, yet only one plant is clawing. The tips on both plants are showing 1/16" brown tips. Don't know what that's about. If it maters, these...

Hello, I'm growing my 1st autos which started flowering almost a week ago. My lights have been on a 20/4 cycle for veg. The big LED light had only its 'VEG' light switched on during this time. Now that they are flowering, I turned on the 'BLOOM' switch, while keeping the 'VEG' light switched...

Greetings, I'm growing my 1st ever autos. They started to flower 6 days ago. I'm wondering if molasses is a good supplement to my FF Happy Frog? Pic of plant seen below.

Greetings, I'm about to plant auto-fems for the 1st time. I'm only familiar with lighting schedules for photoperiod seeds. So, I was wondering what kind of lighting schedule any auto-fem growers, here, use on their plants. EDIT: Please note, I have updated my sig to reflect current grow as of...

I haven't smoked since last year's harvest. So, I'm wondering as I begin to harvest my plants, can I apply forced hot air from a small space heater to speed up the drying of my buds, in order to smoke a little of my yield?

The instructions for my new pH pen instructs me to mix the calibration powders w/ deionized water. That stuff is crazy expensive. Do I absolutely need to use deionized water or can I get away with distilled water?

How long can I expect a 250ml bottle of storage solution to last? Is this something I'll have to buy 2x a year or more? Also, does my new TDS/EC meter require a solution for storage? If so, can I use this same solution...

I learned that my current pH meter is out od whack, so I ordered another. I also wanted a TDS meter, so I ordered(thought) a combo meter. It only says EC/TDS on the unit. But, in the description it lists pH, and its resolution(.01) I guess I'm ordering another pen, and the storage solution...

Do those using a pH meter store it in a storage solution? I May have read somewhere on this site that you can use your calibration buffer solution for in-between-usage storage.

Greetings Nebula. I only contact you as a last resort, as I'm sure you're busy. I've made at least 3 posts since mid May in an effort to try and understand why my plants are all so stunted. I've received no reasonable explanations as to my dilemma, thus far. These Pineapple Express plants began...
