Hello everyone!
It's recently come to our attention that some users are Private Messaging each other with attempts to market themselves, including directing users to their own private websites. In this forum, we do not allow people to promote themselves because we believe it causes bias. We...
I gave nutrients every watering for the first three weeks to help "charge" the coco with nutrients. After that I switched to giving plain pH'ed water every other watering.
Week 1 - July 1-7, 2018
Seedling strength nutrients: 1/4 tsp/gallon each of Flora Micro, Gro, and Bloom. 1 tsp/gallon of...
Everyone hates getting nutrient burn. But what causes it? We have all heard that nutrient burn is the result of too-high levels of nutrients, but which nutrients, in particular, are to blame?
Examples of nutrient burn
We know this these symptoms are the result of the marijuana plant...
Hello all! I have seen so many forum members get great results with their 315 LEC grow journals so I decided it was time to try this light out :) We decided to grow using the Sea of Green style with many smaller plants to try to maximize yields in the shortest amount of time. I was happy with...
Hello everyone,
Anyone who tried to post in the last few days were unable to :( We hit our space limit because of all the wonderful pictures you are uploading, and we had to raise the limit but that involved changing some settings. Service may be a little rocky today if something else comes up...
Different nutrients are available at different pH ranges. The below charts show how doing 5.5-6.5 with coco/hydro/soilless and 6-7 with soil gives your plant access to the most nutrients. If you go under 5.5 in coco you often start getting Calcium and Magnesium deficiencies, for example, but if...
Yes, I agree it doesn't look like a virus. It reminds me of problems with pH.
PH Problems
Cannabis plants like a slightly acidic root environment. As others have said, in soil the optimum is 6-7 pH, and in a soilless medium like coco (or if you're using a lot of mineral-based liquid...
For reference on buds that die from re-veg, this grower harvested his plant except some buds and a few leaves, then tried to re-veg it.
Within just a few days it started making new leaves, but the buds had already dried up and died. That top bud in this pic sort of reminds me of what your...
Your plant overall looks great.
Have you been checking the pH of the water that's coming out the bottom? It reminds me a bit of a Phosphorus deficiency, which can be caused by incorrect pH. Even if you're putting water in at the correct pH, if it comes out too high or too low you know...
If you're looking for a cheap magnifier for checking trichomes, I like this small jeweler's loupe that costs about $12 from Amazon. I've used a few different brands of magnifiers in the <$20 price range and this one is my favorites. I feel like the image is more clear than some of the other...
Yes, you just need to take a little more time to prepare before bending a stem that's already stiffened up. Grab the spot that you want to bend, pinch it between your fingers, and gently wiggle back and forth for up to a minute until it naturally starts bending without breaking the skin. You...
The male pollen sacs will swell and then start cracking right before the pollen starts falling out. You want to harvest them just as you're starting to see most of them get cracks.
If you look at this picture (click for a closeup), most of the pollen sacs have already opened up, but there are a...
Could you post a picture of the plant in the setup? I agree it looks a lot like Calcium, Nutrient Lockout or PH from the pictures.
Calcium Deficiency
You are also said you're using GreenTree Growers' Blend, with is a Coco-based medium. Cannabis plants grown in coco coir tends to...

Please also share your tips!
1.) Don't Let Plants Dry Out
Make sure plants are well-watered! Plants drink a lot in the heat and...

For those who don't know: An...
Hello everyone!
I know some people are having trouble uploading pictures and getting an error that says "Invalid File Data."
The workaround so far has been to either resize the pictures smaller and upload, or take a screenshot of the picture and upload. Obviously we want it to just work...

We're working behind the scenes to get the forum tuned up, and something we get asked about from time to time is to add more sections to the forum.
Right now everything goes on one main list, which is nice to have all in one place, but starting to get overcrowded with all the new members. The...
So we all know about the type of LED grow lights that are designed specifically for plants. When it comes to growing cannabis, LED panels consistently get more yields/watt than CFL bulbs, often getting twice the yields for the same amount of electricity!
However, what about the LED bulbs you...
