After several years and a number of entirely satisfactory plants grown by me, I have lost my ability to keep plants alive. My last successful harvest was last November. Prior to that, everything was fine. I didn't change anything, the plants just started stunting and dying. The seeds have all...

I planted this Girl Scout Cookies almost a month ago . It's just not healthy and not growing. I've looked at possible causes including PH, temperature, contamination by something and I just don't know. Any ideas?

And the third grow begins. This is my most ambitious venture yet with 2 instances of Northen LIghts (AF) and 2 instances of Red Cheese (AF). I've got 4 good seedlings with tap roots and one of those has already erupted from the rooter plug. I got the Red Cheese in on Monday and the Northen...

I got my order from Southern Oregon Seeds this week. Service was nice and quick, and other than the fact that I had to send them a check (minor inconvenience), I'm happy with what I received. The thing is, I was gifted a promotional pack of 3 "Red Cheese feminized autoflower" seeds. I can't...

I'm lazy. Let's make no bones about that. I've come to terms later in life with some unfortunate things about myself and I have to be honest - I'm a lazy bastard. That said, I am a firm believer in closely monitoring the environment in my grow reservoirs and it's considerably more work with 4...

Germinated seeds purchased from Nirvana a year ago. Of the 5 seeds I had, 1 seed cracked and broke surface in about 72 hours. The other 3 in the initial germination failed after 10 days. Started the fifth seed yesterday and we'll see how it goes. Added nutrients to existing seedling yesterday...

So, I started germinating Northern Lights (af) seeds 10 days ago. The seeds produced a single plant which is now in a reservoir in my tent. The other 3 seeds I planted failed. I bought the seeds from Nirvana a year ago, so I'm not really blaming Nirvana, but I am interested in a domestic (CONUS)...

Greetings! I'm embarking on my second grow. I will be raising 4 Northern Lights (af) in a tent under LED's. My previous grow was a photoperiodic plant of some kind grown from donated bag seed in a DWC hydro in a single, large reservoir. The res was easy to sample from and relatively easy to...

I started an actual diary on another, less helpful forum, then I discovered this place. It is THE go-to source for cannabis cultivation. I am creating this post in an effort to pull together previous entries on the project and to update the process - I think we're about to chop. Here are the...

The buds are looking good. Conditions in the tent are great. Everything looks good. I think we're going to make it. Now the question seems to be, "When do I chop?" I'm guessing about 3 weeks. The only wrinkle I see in any of this is in a pic below. It looks like I've got some trichomes that are...

Here is the previous entry in this hopelessly disjointed adventure in horticulture. https://forum.growweedeasy.com/forum/growing-community/296009-blue-dream-end-of-week-14-f15#post296009 Most recent development has to do with the fact that the weed fairy snuck in around Monday morning and...

Not a lot to report at Week 14, day 113, day 15 in flower. I'm looking at TDS running around 800 (feeding Fox Farms Trio). I'm interested in opinions as to whether that is high enough or should I have a look at how I'm feeding? Also, I'm struggling with humidity in the tent. I have a timer...

I may be able to pull this off. I am encouraged by what I'm seeing. The pics below are just cell phone snaps. I own a bunch of camera equipment. You'd think I'd get off my ass take some actual pictures as would be consistent with my other hobby. But no. These are cell phone pics that have been...

So, I've dealt with the crowding issue by lollipoping the plant and thinning any large leaves that were a) in the shade and not providing much or b) shading a bud site. Despite this, I have my first leaf burned from contact with the light. Actually the tip of another leaf looks burned as well...

Greetings! This is end of Week 11. You can see my End of Week 10 post here https://forum.growweedeasy.com/forum/growing-community/289120-blue-dream-auto-end-of-week-10#post289120 . The light has been set to 12/12 for the past week and I'm seeing individual calyx's on most of the places where...

Greetings! Update on my first grow. The plant is really big and bushy. It's starting to crowd itself in the tent. The good news is that I definitely have pistols sprouting. Included some poor pics below. It's really hard to get pics of these things with camera or microscope. It's using more...

Greetings again folks. Tomorrow is day 56 the beginning of Week 8. As you recall, last week I stripped this plant down to a circle of pom-poms. See the link below (how do you embed links in these posts?) I come to you now with pics of the new growth. I am soliciting opinions. I know that at...

Welcome to the middle of week 6. Here are some pics. They've been color corrected as best I can. The plant is a Blue Dream auto and it's all of about 6 - 8 inches tall. I expect a stretch in a week or so, but in the meantime, notice that there is a lot of leafy stuff buried under all the big...

I checked my tent tonight and just happened to check the tiny remnant of a Jock Horror auto I tried to start at the same time I started the Blue Dream that is doing so well. The Jock Horror forced it's way out of the rooter somehow and it just never recovered. But it never died either. Here is...

Okay, so it's not really a challenge, but over the past month I've found 2 of these beasts on my reservoir. I don't think they've done any damage that I can see, but I can't actually identify it. The closest I can get is that it appears to be a member of the order Coleoptera (duh) and I would...
