    inbreeding....? can you or is that not good?

    I have some Russian Rocket Fuel pollen collected last season which I used to pollinate a bushy pheno. I used 2 males. I'm growing those bushy pheno seeds out and my RRF seed stock is low from sharing, so I'm going to make some more. My question is: If I don't get any males, can I use the...

    Grow#4- I'm ready for some real gear. Help?

    I have a closet space I'm putting a tent in. The tent will be 2ftx3ftx5ft. It perfectly fits 3 of those extra large rectangular cat litter buckets and I'm growing autos :). Anyhow, I need to order a light, a fan and a carbon scrubber. On lights- I'm thinking 400w will be overkill for an hps...

    RRF Auto, 3 ltr bottles, CFLs, Dr. Earth w/a touch of frugality and lack of time

    Since I came up pretty empty handed while searching on Dr. Earth and since I'm pretty fresh off the boat as a "farmer," I'll be starting this journal to entertain at least myself and perhaps a few others and hopefully some good information will come of it. My Russian Rocket Fuel (non feminized)...

    Dr. Earth at Ace- organic planting soil...

    I have been everywhere trying to find some kind of premixed soil or the ingredients to mix my own and I found this brand at Ace- Dr. Earth. They have a whole line of organic products and they seem to be truly organic. Anyhow, this planting soil I found has: Forest Humus, Natural Diet Worm...

    I'm torn...cabinet or room?

    I moved into a house with a basement. In the basement is a small workroom- about 5 ft long by 3 ft wide with a small understaircase closet and a small 3ftx3ft space off the back- a rectangle with a square closet and square area. This part of the basement has a dirt floor. My first grow was...

    Lowryder Auto Suggestions for Potent Strains? Help, please?

    I'll be starting up my second grow soon. I have a new, bigger, SMALL cabinet. I can grow only 4 at a time and I have about 5 ft of height, so, counting the roots, that leaves 3.5 ft of foliage, so I am going with lowryders and I don't want a quick harvest right away, so autos. I have heard...

    Once a hermie...

    I had one plant left to harvest from my bagseed grow and it kept growing new buds. It flowered for 13 weeks. At about week 9, the pistils turned pink (the stems have always been purple). At about week 10, it started shooting out these leaves with no "serations" on the edges. I thought it was...

    Harvest then re-veg question

    I just harvested my first plant and I am wanting to re-veg her. I only cut the buds and left all the popcorn and any fan leaves I could, probably took about 25% of her. I have her in with my others in 12/12 still. I don't have anywhere to put her back into vegging light cycle until I harvest...

    A heads up about posting pics

    I don't want to be chicken little. I don't want everyone running to all their posts and deleting pics. I highly doubt it is necessary, but I just wanted to give people a heads up that when you post pics from a digital camera, they have what is called "meta data" attached to them. This "meta...

    No Key to figure out strains?

    Back in biology 101, we used a key of sorts to figure out what kind of animal we found or plant material we had. Is there nothing like this for marijuana? Something where you look at a specific part- like the leaf and you decide between traits whet the leaf looks like, then maybe the vascular...

    How to get close enough with microscope to check trichs?

    I bought a 60-100X pocket microscope from Radio Shack. It works well, very well, except it is very difficult to see the trichs for more than a few seconds at a time. Let me paint a picture for you: I have to put the microscope's end directly on the bud while holding it still with my other...

    Of course, I'm having issues...bleah

    The details: This is Phyllis and she is from bag seed. My first grow, so this is my learning grow. The soil is whatever I could find that did not have fertilizer in it. They were all in MG moisture lock before, so I repotted them, letting as much of the MG fall off as possible. Water...

    Vaporizers- use 'em? Tried 'em? Why? Why not?

    This is a repost from a different post where someone was looking for alternative ways to enjoy marijuana without smoking it, but I had been meaning to post something about vaporizers on here because I rarely see reference to them. Soooo, without further adieu... I use a vaporizer. Do you...

    Too many girls.

    I expected at least half of my bagseed grow to be male, but only one was. I have 4 obvious females unless they hermie on me. I have them LSTed in a very small cabinet- the grow space is only 3 ft tall by 2 ft deep by 3 ft wide. The current LST height of them, colas and all, is pretty darn...

    OMG, what if they all turn out to be female?

    They've been in flower for about 4 days now and every single one of 'em is looking to be female?! Do male pollen sacs develop later then female preflowers? I could have sworn some would end up hermie and expected it because this is from bagseed and some of them from bud full of seeds, so maybe...

    Too much N- ram horned leaves- what to expect now?

    I watered 4 days ago with nutes, put 'em into a pre-flowing darkness stage of 48 hours and came back to find slight ram-horned leaves and a little curling of the sides and a tiny bit of brown tips. So, I flushed them today about 3 times each with plain water (soil grow). I've moved to 12/12...

    LST and Flowering

    A question: I have been LSTing my plants. The plants themselves are all about a foot tall (but not standing upright, instead are bent at a practically 90 degree angle and have been for a month). The new shoots (I'll call those colas?) The new colas are about 4-6 inches tall. Am I supposed...

    Please help asa- power outtage

    My plants have been on a 24 hour light cycle and I'm doing LST. The new colas (?, stalks?) are small, just about 2-3 inches each. We had a power outtage last night and they went without light for 7 hours. At this point, should I turn off the lights and put them into a dark cycle and go ahead...
