I saw something called "green works" in the garden section at Walmart, I honestly have no experience with it so you may want to check into it before spraying it on your plants but it claims to kill most common types of bugs.

Up until a week ago I was using a metal probe PH meter until I read this thread by HippyInEngland (http://www.marijuanapassion.com/forum/showthread.php?t=27943), at that point I ordered a Milwalkee Digital PH meter and got an accurate reading of 8.1, I then tried to adjust the PH by adding 2...

I attempted transplanting the smallest plant and when I slid it out of the pot I immediately noticed the lack of a root system, I also noticed how compact and wet the soil was even though I had watered about 4 or 5 days ago. The soil also smelled really really bad (maybe that's why I haven't...

I have 1 that I germinated about a week ago that looks EXACTLY like that with the brown stain on the leaf, I thought it was a light/heat burn because I have a 600W HPS on it, but now that I see the same thing with yours Im thinking otherwise, what exactly is the name of the soil you planted that...

Could it be possible that this soil did not have enough nutrients in it to begin with? I'm pretty sure it's the soil, another thing I'd like to add is that it takes a very long time for this stuff to dry out, I'm talking like a week between each watering The pots are 10"X10"

This is what caused alarm, notice how the fan leaves are turning a lime/gold color and some are starting to dry out. These were planted in topsoil only, as far as Im concerned there is no extra nutes in the soil, I don't recall the exact name off hand just that it is topsoil, however I can go...

I have 4 females that appear to be dying due to the soil that they are in. They are 2 weeks into flowering and planted in top soil that I bought from the grocery store. I know that transplanting them into a bigger container with different soil would be ok but I do not have space for bigger...

Hey everyone just had a quick question about lighting. I have a 600w HPS/MH switchable ballast and I just wanted to know if a 400w MH bulb would take 600w or 400w of electricity?

Be more specific please, are you talking about the PVC tents?

If your planning on growing in Colorado the dry climate is definitely going to be an issue, especially if you are planning on not visiting the site to water regularly. I don't know if a drip system is going to be efficient enough, but I do not have experience using it so dont take my word...

These are the 4 plants I am referring to that are not growing in MG soil....

Hey guys I apologize I need to be more specific with my question, I have 4 plants ranging in height from 5"-7" which are growing in a Hyponex/Top soil blend. They are growing very slow compared to 3 other 9"-11" plants which are growing in MG soil, they were all planted at the same time. My...

I have some Shultz Starter Plus for transplants it contains Nitrogen 5% Phosphate 10% Potash 5% Iron .10% Vitamin B12 .02%. I am 6 weeks into vegetation and have 4 plants that are growing very small compared to my 3 others. I'd just like to know if this will help my smaller plants grow a...
