Looking over the threads in here I've noticed a lot of discussion and questions regarding 'the right way to grow' or 'the best way to grow' etc., as well as requests for tips for new growers. So naturally I thought I'd throw my two cents into the well and make a wish. And here goes...

Hi folks, Haven't been around the forum in awhile....thought I'd show you what I've been doing lately. This entire harvest is from a single plant. Strongest one I ever grew. The guy I buy my soil from gave me a free sample of Mychorizae teabags. Phenomenal results and highly recommended. I had...

Hi all, Just about done - - - probably about 2 weeks to go. This plant suffered a massive Ca overdose early on and was stunted such that it grew about half of it's normal size. Normal would be almost 7' tall; this one's only 4'. If only I'd known about the Ca problem at the start! Oh well...

My power was off momentarily today in the middle of my plants' light-on cycle. Since their only time in the dark was the 15 minutes I spent waiting before firing up my HPS again, it would seem like no real damage was done. Which leads to my question: How long would an interruption have to be...

:) Hi all, Here's a couple tops from the current crop. Still have at least 4 weeks to go.

Well, I don't think I was aggressive enough with my training and things kinda got out of hand. :eek: First pic is 4 weeks ago when they were first put into 12/12 and 2nd pic is now. Waddya think?

I've got three plants going right now in the 4th week of flower. As I had some trouble germinating this time around, one of them is about 3 weeks older than the other two. Does this mean that the first one will finish before the other two? They were all put into 12/12 at the same time. I held...

Does anyone spray nutriated water directly on the leaves/shoots/stems or is this a bad idea? And what exactly is the benefit to spraying directly? I've been spraying mine when the lights go out (they are on 12/12 now) but I'm not sure if I've seen any benifit.

For all the experts: Is there ever a time when you can look at an unknown strain and say definitively what it is? Or would it be limited to sativa v. indica? Just wondering and thanks to all who respond.:)

This is seven weeks into veg and just got flipped into 12/12. It's showing the menorah-shaped branches I've seen on other LSTs so I think I'm on the right track. All restraints are off at the moment to give her some room to move and reach for the light. She really seems to like the 400W HPS I...

I can't believe that I'd be the only grower who depends on a little good luck...and here's my good luck charm. Anybody else want to show their's? Mods, if this thread belongs elsewhere, please move it. But I gotta say, for me, this is an integral part of my growing! So there! :p Cheers, all.

These two are entering week 5 of veg. They are both the legendary UBS strain. ;) I've seen female preflowers on each (fingers crossed). Here's hoping!

Hi everyone Having some trouble with my oldest plant! A quick recap: 1. 7 weeks into veg 2. FF Ocean Forest soil with FF Grow Big 3. Soil pH 6.7-6.8 4. CFLs for vegging - lights on 24/0 5. Strain is unknown bagseed 6. Flushed 1 week ago She was looking terrific until a few days ago when I...

If you're talking about a certain strain (say Northern Lights X Shiva), would this be pronounced Northern Lights times Shiva Northern Lights by Shiva Northern Lights crossed with Shiva or maybe Northern Lights 'Echhs' Shiva? Just wondering!:D

Does anybody add anything to their water for flushing soil-grown plants? I've tried a sample of FF BushDoctor Sledgehammer given to me by my local hydro-store guy but can't really tell if it's doing anything more than just plain ph-adjusted water would do. Also, if you have a plant you suspect...

Anybody wanna take a stab at estimating the number of folks who grow indoors? (Thousands? Millions?) Judging from the thread traffic here and at other websites it looks like there's quite a few. Plus, I know that the lurkers must heavily outnumber the posters. Worldwide it's got to be a lot! I...

Hi everyone, Here's the latest shots from my LST experiment. The first pic was taken 4 weeks into veg and the second was shot today (9 days later - a bit over 5 weeks). :)

This is my 2nd grow and first attempt at LST. This plant has been vegging under CFL for 4 weeks now and will be switched to 400W HPS for bloom. Growing in FoxFarms Ocean Forest with added perlite and some peat moss. Using FF Grow Big for nutes. I'm trying to train it, but I may just be making...

Hi everyone, I'm starting my 2nd grow but having some trouble. I'm using the "seedburger" method of germinating (seeds between two damp sponges) which worked well for me last time. This time I've run into a problem. After germinating 5 seeds (just bagseed) I transferred them to small pots...
