THC & CBD Percentages: Anyone else run into low-THC strains that feel "strong"? I tried a local strain today called Lemony Snickett, pictured here. I'd say it's about average as far as overall appearance: The smell is vaguely reminiscent of Citrus, but there isn't a particularly strong taste...

Growing & Caring for Sativa Strains When it comes to growing cannabis indoors, Sativa plants are typically a little tougher to care for than Indica plants. Sativa strains originated from hot regions near the equator, and as a result they have a few properties that can catch an indoor grower by...

Hydroponics is when you grow your cannabis plant in an inert medium like coco or a reservoir of water, and provide all the nutrients to the plant directly in the water. Growing in coco coir can be considered a type of hydroponics since it naturally contains no nutrients and you must provide all...

How to Treat Epilepsy or Seizures with Medical Marijuana (What Works & Doesn't Work) Hello everyone! I'm not a doctor or any other type of medical professional, so I can't give any medical advice. However, I am an epilepsy patient who uses medical marijuana, and I wanted to share some things...

Hello everyone! At GWE we have a list of recommended seed banks, so we try to regularly poll all our users to see which companies/breeders you all are using! So, for those who order cannabis seeds online, who do you recommend?

If you burn cannabis, the ash will turn either white/gray or black. Most people agree that white ash is better or more "pure" than black ash, but what causes the difference? I've purchased cannabis that turns black after being burned, but to be honest, the ash of my home-grown cannabis has...

When it comes to plant training, is there anything you did that you regret? Things like... Not training Training/topping too early or too much Screen of Green gone wrong Plants stayed too small or got too big Any other type of plant training problems! I'd love to hear everyone's personal...

It could be bud rot. That can dry out buds and cause nearby leaves to die, like this:

Do the spots look like this? (spider mites) It's hard to say for sure from the picture. Is it happening in just that one spot, or the whole plant?

I agree it looks like light burn. The fact that's it happening most at the top of the plant near the lights is another sign it might be light burn. Light burn is caused by too high levels of light for too long and can happen even if it's cool, kind of like how skiers can still get sunburn...

I agree that they will germinate better in Rapid Rooters if they get light, especially after the first day or two. The seedlings won't really open their leaves or turn green until they start getting light. For the one with no leaves, is it possible it's growing with the root upside down? More...

The yellow "bananas" are an example of a female cannabis plant growing male flowers. You want to pick them off as soon as you see them as they can pollinate buds, which can end up producing some seeds. If you have lots of other female plants you might consider tossing the affected plants just so...

Hi Everyone! Our growing community has exploded with hundreds of new members since last September, and in just that short amount of time we've already started overloading our hosting servers. As a result, the forum has been running slowly lately. We want you know that we are aware of the...

Hello everyone! I wanted to put some loose guidelines to help people know what to include when posting a question. Think of this as Question Posting 101. Please Include the Following In Your Question Post: Your Title Should Quickly Explain the Problem/Question - This makes it way more likely...

Could you post a picture of your setup? Do you have a place to vent out heat? You have two main options for smell control - a carbon filter with fan, or the use of odor neutralizers (like sprays and other smell-control products). In order to make a carbon filter most effective, you have to...

Hello everyone! I recently learned about True North Seedbank from Karlee, which is a Canadian based seed bank that has been in business since 2013. I know Karlee recently ordered from them, and I just ordered from them today, too, to test them out. They seem to have a really great selection of...

I also use a battery operated water transfer pump :) It's great if you've only got a few small reservoirs. The more industrial water pumps can feel like overkill for 5 gallons of water at a time :) But those industrial ones are great if you have a lot of water to move!

Hello everyone! Chemichael had the idea that we should make new user titles for our members! Like one title could be "Green Thumb" or something like that. Right now they just say "Junior Member" which is pretty boring! Do you have any ideas or suggestions for titles? Should we make titles based...

No, some trichomes come out purple, or even pink! Some Sativa and Haze plants have trichomes that turn white, but never really progress to amber. Most plant's trichomes do turn amber though, and trichomes turning a different color is pretty rare. It's a lot more common to see the pistils or...
