Some funky genetics!:hard-laugh: Check out the leaf bleaching.....

Week two going into week 3 since flowers appeared.

Looking good! So how do you like growing weed so far? My little patch

I recommend you download a free light meter app so that you can measure the amount of light energy you are providing your plants. I like to use DLI(Daily Light Integral) to measure the amount of light so I can ramp the light up and down at the appropriate stages. In the meantime you can use...

TomDaDon90 Use this to get a general idea of how much light you are giving your plant. I suggest you download a free light meter app so you can measure the amount of light you are giving your plant. If you have an android phone I suggest Tent Buddy. Iphone? Photone.

Same strain grown from seed. That's what's weird. The others are nice and strong. No axial issues at all. Yes. The plates are from FloraFlex. They also come with thin felt pads that help distribute water across the media. I didn't think the pads were really necessary but once I used them I saw...

One of the plants I have going has very weak branch connections. If I gently pull on a leaf or branch it will snap off. I've never encountered this before. Anyone have an idea as to why this is happening? Cultivar is a cross of White Widow and Sour Diesel. I have 4 plants total in Root...

damanc You can use this chart as a general guide to what your plants want when. I use it to pair down the amendments I actually need and not what the manufacturer wants to sell me. Only thing I would change is to start cal/mg a couple weeks earlier. I like to run a 50/50 blend of grow and...

I will agree with what has been mentioned above. Continue using your grow base ferts until you start to see preflower. Personally I go with the 50/50 mix up into week 6 but that is my personal preference. I like to use this chart as a general guideline to what your plants nutritional needs are...

Hurdbilly74 I'll agree with the experts that you have a bit of N tox along with upping the cal/mag to help dissipate some of it. Otherwise she looks good. I like to use this chart as a guideline to when I need to up a particular nutrient ion to match the needs of the plant in the growth phase...

Actually I find that letting the media dry up a bit sometimes will hold it together but usually if they are just slightly damp they'll stay together. What I do to minimize the media from falling apart in my hands is to fill the cloth pot to the desired level where if I put my transfer pot on...

You can keep the roots from cooking by raising the pots. The warmth that comes off the pad should be enough to keep them warm. As far as topping, it really depends on how much time you want to keep them in veg and how much room you have in your space to grow them. Topping them will slow down...

These are the beans you sent me a while back. White Widow x Sour D Training Time..... Thanks Brother!!

When I worked for hippies up in Humboldt in the 90's they used to do this. When I started working for licensed grow ops the staff botanists would laugh at me when I mentioned what I had learned. The takeaway from all the shame was that when the lights go out photosynthesis stops and the plant...

TomDaDon90 What you're doing by trimming some of the lower branches is concentrating more energy towards the top of the plant that get the maximum amount of light energy. Similar to topping a plant where you are redirecting the energy that plant has to where you want it to be directed. The plant...
