    Long Term Cloning

    I received six Super Skunk clones about 2 years ago and i have been growing from those six girls ever since. I'm on my sixth grow with the same plant strain and I was wondering if there is anything I should look out for. I heard that your clones will always be at the same growth stage as she was...

    Conputer Equipment Grow.

    A local Network company was doing some major down sizing and cleaning house. They were throwing away this "Cube-It" as it was out of the box and not new. It was going to the curb and I gave it a quick look and said help me load it up . With no modification and the installation of the Mylar I was...

    Dumb Clone Question

    I think I know the answer but I don't want to kill any baby's without asking. I sprouted a real nice plant from a seed I found in a bag of real nice bud my friend sent me from Alaska. I got some clones from this nice looking plant and then three weeks later it was clear that it was a male :( Now...

    Clearing/Flushing

    I'm at week 5 flower with some Super Skunk clones being fed with FF nutes and the feeding chart says to flush with a "Clearing" solution and H2O for two cycles. My local hydro guy said why use chemicals to flush chemicals? He suggested using straight Ro PH corrected water for a few days or even...

    I have a bunch of girls veging in one 2'X4' tray in my flood/drain setup. They will need more space in my flower room. I am setting up my 4'X4' hut and i would like to use two smaller trays vs. one large tray for easy cleaning but can I have one res feeding the two trays? One res, Two trays and...

    Backup pump fpr Flood and Drain Sys.

    I am going to be working out of town for a week and I'm concerned about pump failure. I have a brand new Active Aqua PU400 pump sold by Hydro Farm and so far I have checked to find this pump making sounds but not pumping water on multiple inspections. I removed the impeller to clean and found...

    Light Time Change

    I wanted to change my lights in the flower room from 8:00Am to 8:00PM ON to 8:00PM to 8:00AM ON to take advantage of off peak electricity rates. Would it be better to leave the lights off all day and let them turn on at 8:00PM to start the new cycle? I guess the question "is it better to them...

    RO or Tap H2O

    My tap water is about 6.5 where I live. I used RO water for feeding and watering on my first grow but I got to wondering. I had to use BASE to raise the PH after mixing my Nutes to get it to 6.8. I mixed a batch using the tap water and tested the PH and it was 6.5 without adding anything more...

    Royal Gold has Basement Mix

    This is my second grow and my first round was a huge success with no problems and zero trouble shooting. I used FoxFarm Ocean Forest and House & Garden nutes. I really was amazed how easy it was to get a great yield and killer smoke. I planed to use the same method as the first time around but...

    Odd Smell...

    I'm vegging a few clones of super skunk and I am starting to smell a "cat pee" scent at week three. Is this normal for that strain or is there something else at play here? No mold and a well ventilated veg room that I used before on my first batch with no strange smells. I am a big "clean room...

    Pure Worm Castings.....

    I heard using Pure Worm Castings was a goog thing to do. I got some WormGoldPlus to start a couple of nice bagseeds. The water seems to sit on top of the mix forever. Takes a long time to soak into "soil". Thought I would try it a see how it works. Any thoughts?

    Yellow leaves around main bud...

    My girl is going into week eight flower and the leaves around the main bud starting getting yellow and curling a bit. I have been using nutrient all along but maybe burn from nutrient? I switched to straight RO water today to be safe. Any help?

    Should I Transplant???

    My girl is in a one gallon pot filled with FF Ocean Forest and at week seven of flower. A guy at the local grow shop sugested that if I transplant to a bigger pot then the plant will really take off. I passed on the bag of soil and the pot he was trying to sell me but I thought I would get some...

    Main Cola question

    My girls are in week seven of flowering and I was just wondering what would happen if I cut the top portion off of the main cola? The top looks real nice with some good cloudy trichs all over but lower down the little flowers look good but not evan close to ready. I want the lower sections to...

    Please don't tell me.....

    These just poped out this week. This plant looked Female all along. What are these round things? I pulled one out and pulled it apart and it was bright green inside. The little bud I pulled had a real nice high. I have larger pics if that helps.

    CF with HPS lights

    Is it ok to use CF lights while I use a 400W HPS? I use one large 65W CF along side my 400HPS to fill a dark spot in the room. It also seems to "fill" the light spectrum.

    PH Question

    I'm using RO water that tested out at 6.5 before I mix the nutrient. After i mix House & Garden AARDE A&B the mix tests out at 4.0 or lower. Should I test the mix after prep and before use? I think that the Nutruent is adjusting the PH to a lower value but is it getting too low? Should I just...
