Hi everybody, I've recently experienced an unusual issue with my buds just before harvest. The tops of some of the buds are turning brown and dying along with some of the sugar leaves. When I describe the symptoms on the website's diagnostic page I get Bud Rot. The only thing is, when I break...

Hi all, I haven't posted in a while so it's time to ask a question: I grow with organic soil in a "just add water" setup. I've found a decent packaged mix of minerals and additives here in Canada which is made in collaboration with the folks at KISS organic in the U.S. I add that to a mix of...

This grow has been a study in everything that can go wrong. First I wanted "super soil" but it was hard to find in Canada. I ended up with something labeled Super Soil but it only lasted six weeks on water only. When I looked deeper into the company who sells it- Blue Sky Organics, I found they...

Three weeks into flower and I've done my last major defoliation. I was only able to get after pictures of two plants. Hope I didn't overdo it. I don't think so but I'm new to this. I've also discovered a small outbreak of spider mites. (Not the double spotted kind thank God).You may chide me for...

When I left off I was struggling to save my Hawaiians from a depleted, un-aptly named super soil. I threw everything organic at them that I could; worm castings, Cal-Mag, compost (tea and top dress), Fert-Alive, a bloom top dress from Stepwell and another called Incredible Bulk, all with an...

I think a lot of my mistakes come from assuming things. My latest assumption was that all super soils are packed with enough nutrient power to last a good long time. It turns out some super soils are more super than others. The particular SS I'm using (Blue Sky organics) has timed out on me. I...

I'm struggling with what looks like a calcium deficiency in my "just add water" setup. I think this is because I didn't realize I was using de-mineralized water, not spring water, which is what I thought it was. Doooh! I've since been searching for a source of spring water or even just...

I'm eight weeks in and the top of the canopy is ten inches high. I think it's time to flip but, in light of a possible SNAFU I've discovered, I'm wondering if I should wait a couple of days. The plants seem to be progressively getting more of a lime green color. You can see as you go counter...

Here we are four weeks in and things are going fairly well. I've started training them at varying degrees according to their growth. You can see the main stalk curving around the tomato cage. The runt was bent over toward the cage because it was still growing, just smaller. It'll probably start...

Hi folks. This is my first grow so I'm looking for a little reassurance that I'm dealing with this the best I can. I'm about one week in with 4 Maui Wowie germinated in 5 gallon Smart pots loaded with super soil and Happy Frog on top. (Can't get Coco Loco up here in Canada for some reason). Two...
