What is your biggest question about growing cannabis?

What's the best light cycle for my indoor plants 24-0, 20-4, 18-6 or 16-8? Which are crossing over from seedling to vege phase

 

[Rwise]

IF they are autos then 20/4 to 24/0 until harvest, IF they are photos then 18/6 (or 16/8) to flower then 12/12s.

Do you decarb your weed before you make oil? The kief
would not be decarbed, except when you smoked the oil.
I have wondered about putting kief in the oil I use to make caps.

 

[Catfish22]

When using a Kelp supplement for transplanting in coco, do you mix it with regular feed water or plain water.

If feed water do you add it first like Armor Si or does it matter. I would think that plain water would be better.

 

[FurnaceBoi]

My oil is decarbed just from the process

 

[FurnaceBoi]

I disagree a bit. I have done 24/0. I have seen no significant difference and I believe the plants need the rest periods

 

[Rwise]

Yes lots of debate here, but I agree I dont see any dif 'cept in the electric bill in the results from 24/0 vs 20/4.

 

[FurnaceBoi]

I run my kelp with plain tap water. Just my way. Remo velo kelp.
I don't even dechloronate anymore. But for transplant I also add Vitamin B. Any brand. I find a bit of Clonex or any hormone aids with transplant also.

 

[Catfish22]

Thank you sir. I want it for transplants. So after you get your transplant in do you water with just the kelp water and do nutes on your next watering?

I have always used 18/6 for vegging, then 12/12 for flowering, no matter what the plant is as I use what seeds I find when I buy some, or given some seeds, and I have NO CLUE what it is, but every grow I've done this way (except for my organic grow) has turned out excellent.

Now IF you are getting these types of seeds, then go with what the majority of these type of growers have to input to further your knowledge of growing these types. As I am old school, weed is weed! Fast or slow, it all grows the same, depending on your conditions.

 

[NuggetMan]

18/6 vegging. 12/12 flowering. The day the seedling break soil, that is when I start 18/6 from day 1. no such thing as "seedlings to veg" as they start in a veg state to begin with. There is no "crossing over'.

This is my first day in the forum and just posted a question concerning the amount of yield to expect per plant grown in an outdoor greenhouse. Perhaps you can view my post question before I came across your post, if so my question is more detailed with a couple of pics I posted with it.?

Okay everyone here is my 10 mimosa evo feminised plants 1 week in2 vedge stage im worried about the tops of the plants looking twisted and limp i no my tent is to hot ablut 34 degres im running at 400w to conteract the heat are the plants to far gone to train or am i okay to start training, also all leave stems are purple is that a good sign my buds will have good colour

 

[SoOrbudgal]

To hot and underwatered get them healthy most look sick.

 

[Uksmoker]

Mate how can i get them healthier i carnt do anything about temp

 

[Rwise]

At 93*F you are going to have problems, open a door, run the AC, get the temp down.

 

[NuggetMan]

Fill ice chest with ice and set a fan near it to blow the cool air in at a low speed. Maybe you need to switch to a different light that is cooler but still within the light range needed for vegging. I myself use t8 cfl tubes at 6400k for vegging and 2700k for flowering (shop light fixture with 4 tubes). Try CFL bulbs??? They work great indoors for me... At 93 degrees you might as well be outdoors... never over 80 degrees indoors... You have too hot a light for your area...

 

[NuggetMan]

You want light, not so much heat and this is what you have to contend with; plus your size of grow area, weather, temperature and humidity all play a factor as well... 1 other thing to keep in mind, the more CFL's you bunch together, they will throw out heat as well, even though they are designed to be used as "1 bulb at a time". I put 4 CFL BULBS not tubes together and it raised my temp a extra 6-8 degrees... My other lights run so cool I keep them 3 inches from the tops of the plants.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

True words there NuggetMan reason i put a curly CFL with reflector was to raise the temp and it did.

 

[Bootsy]

Didnt see any more info. dont be insulted but - you are exhausting the hot air out? and the incoming air - is it from as cold a place as possible, ay outdoors directly? every btu adds up. more air would also help, but not sure how much you have. for example in my basement, 3 degrees warmer can add 5 degrees inside beccuase of the warmer ventilation air and the heat treansfer through the tent. good luck. If all these are as good as you can - then you need less heat or more cooling.
