    Help Confirming Gender

    Hi Farmers, I just flipped my plants into 12/12 about a week ago and one of my plants is already showing flowers. The only problem is that I can't tell it's gender off hand. I don't see female hairs but I also don't see "balls on a stick" or "bunch of grapes" (as male flowers have often been...

    Proper Nirvana Use?

    thanks for the tip dankworth. I had planned on cutting out hygrozyme entirely from this grow due to the mixed results i got last crop. you may be right it seems to me that the enzymes only serve to break down the dead and dying root mass into easy to digest food for algae and slime instead of...

    Proper Nirvana Use?

    thanks for your replies everybody. i only seem to get root problems when i use new products that have organic parts in them. the last time it happened i tried adding molasses to the water. manitoid is right i don't have any benes in the buckets so adding nirvana would probably just create more...

    Proper Nirvana Use?

    Anybody? Has anybody used Nirvana in DWC that can tell me more info? The matter is becoming somewhat urgent as my window to return the Nirvana should I decide not to use it is rapidly closing.

    Bubble Bucket/DWC/WaterFarm is a good way to go if you do ALL YOUR HOMEWORK before you start growing. There is a lot that can go wrong with water culture setups and you need to be prepared because changes can happen very quickly. I started learning how to do hydro as i was running soil so that...

    my plants look like this.... please help

    Glad to hear your girls are recovering! I recently had a similar problem and like you i attributed it to every thing from nutes to bad genetics EXCEPT the position and intensity of my light. some helpful farmers pointed out my problem and i'm glad i was able to pass it on. you should be able to...

    Proper Nirvana Use?

    Hi farmers I recently bought a bottle of Nirvana and I want to know a little bit more about it before i start using it. I read that it was an organic supplement so what does this mean? I'm running DWC with Pure Blend Pro and I try to keep my water sterile, will this stuff gunk my water up? I use...

    Leaves Twisting Curling Crinkling and Discoloring

    Just another update on this situation: #3 has recovered nicely and has resumed its incredible rate of growth. Now that our pre-winter warm spell has passed it should be easier to regulate temps in the cab. it is currently 79F at plant-top, 75F ambient, and 69-70F in the water. I guess we can...

    my plants look like this.... please help

    check pH and try and up the humidity. also raise your lights a bit or move the plants away from the direct light. since your roots are recovering they cant support the foliage yet.

    2nd Attempt at hydro - DWC and some mystery seeds

    OK I think (hope) the twisting/curling problem #3 was having has been resolved. I believe it was because the light was too close thereby overexposing the plant to light and causing too much heat around the canopy. so i changed the rez to clear out some slime and moved the light up some. some of...

    If your dispensary TRULY cares about helping patient find meds that fit their needs then they shouldnt have any problem sourcing some clones for you. That being said they may in fact be dicks about it because they do only care about taking your money. If they don't help then check out the...

    Leaves Twisting Curling Crinkling and Discoloring

    Thanks to everyone that replied. Took some of your suggestions. She hasn't gotten better but neither has she gotten worse, so I'm still optimistic. Critical - the room humidity is around 40% and after doing an emergency rez change I did up the pH closer to 6.0. The light was about 10 inches...

    soil is indeed a good way to go for beginners. changes are slower so you have more time to react to any problems that arise. perlite is a form of expanded rock that you mix into the soil to improve drainage and water retention. i used to buy it in Miracle (it) Gros bags from homie depot or wally...

    Leaves Twisting Curling Crinkling and Discoloring

    HELP! As the title says the leaves on one of my plants are simultaneously twisting, curling, becoming crinkled, and turning strange colors. The bottom leaves are getting yellow and spotty, while the upper leaves are dark green on the edges and light inside. Also she has a stem the size of a...

    OK So for a grow of your size you can go either HPS or CFL and get similar results, with HPS being somewhat better. People say that the bud quality is better with an HPS but I've grown with both and the difference is small but noticeable for small setups. Plants tend to finish stronger and...

    ph climbing

    it is normal for your pH to swing a bit, i have to beat mine back down every day or two. bucketcleaner is right check your ppm's too your pH is probably swinging because the plants arent fully utilizing the nutes yet. also, what are you using for pest/algae control? algae growth in your rez can...

    forgot afew things on the hydro system????

    tap water is usually too high pH to use directly. you need to get a pH tester of some sort (strips or digital meter) and some hydroponic pH adjusters to make it right (5.5-5.8). ppm's are the amount of nutrients and other stuff available in the water, you can check with a digital meter. you need...
