    Help choosing seeds for my next indoors grow

    Hi everyone! Been growing indoors for a couple of years now. However, after four grows of White Widow, kind of wanted to try something different. But the offer on the market is mind blowing these days! Can some more experienced members help me choose? 1. I am a big fan of indica/sativa...

    CBD plants: are they worth it or is it mostly BS?

    Hi everyone! The wife is trying to convince me to grow some CBD plants to help with her inflammation pains, general stress, stuff like that. I'm under the impression that more CBD (and less to none THC) usually means a sober but analgesic effect. So question is... are they really worth it to...

    1st grow => 1st harvest. Does this look ok?

    Hi everyone! Spent the most part of this weekend harvesting and trimming (boy, wet trimming is looooong work, even with good tools!). I just harvested around 80% from each plant (set of 4). Let the remaining 20% of smaller lower growths there for a week more, maybe they'll get some extra...

    Got a butter maker, do I need to decarb first?

    Hi everyone! I got one of these butter-infusion makers that have a deposit where you can place your weed for creating an infusion. Unfortunately, the instructions are nowhere to be found. But I got the basic gist of it. My question is, should I decarb the weed first before putting in the...

    Should I harvest my 1st grow in just one go?

    Hi everyone! I'm planning on harvesting my first grow next Saturday. I was thinking of doing it in two steps: harvest, say, the top half of the plant; then give the lower smaller growths another week to mature. My reasoning was that the top main flowers are probably a bit more ripe than the...

    1st grow, are these getting ready to harvest? Some help?

    Hi everyone. This is my first grow. - Indoors tent / 465W full spectrum LED's / 4 x White Widow feminized plants (not clones, different mothers) - gradually switched to flowering light scheme (12/12) from the 12th to the 18th November 2022 - the first flowering white pistils started coming...

    Do you get more or less pests with coco when compared to soil?

    Hi everyone! I'm considering using coco for my second grow indoors in a couple of months. Regarding pests, would you say you get more or less (aphids, spiders, fungus gnats, etc.) of them using coco as a substrate? I put on yellow traps on every pot, I'm not overwatering (so, top of the...

    Which camera to install in tent to create grow timelapses?

    Hi everyone! Want to mount a small camera to create video timelapses of my grows. Just need one of those cameras that snap a picture per hour or something like that. What brands and models more appropriate for this? Maybe one of those sports GoPro cameras? Will they survive a grow tent for...

    4 x Indica's + 1 x Hybrid Indica/Sativa? Or the other way around?

    Hi everyone. I was toying with the idea of growing 4 x Indica's on the corner pots of this system (vertically, no training), and use the middle pot to create an hybrid indica/sativa (like White Widow). I would then top the middle one and eventually LST't a bit so as to direct the main branches...

    Using CO2 tabs. Is it ok to fart inside the tent?

    Hi everyone! Well... I guess my real question is... do these CO2 slow release tabs that you put inside a bowl of water really work? I understand the logic of not being that much CO2 inside a grow tent, it's a kind of enclosed space. On the other hand, if I have airflow inside the tent (I...

    Getting concerned: white tips on the upper growth of my plants

    Hi everyone. 1st grow / indoors tent / day 25 of veg / 1 gallon medium-fertilised soil (soon to be transplanted to 3 gallon pots) / LED lights at 22inches or 60cm from the top (250W, full spectrum, ~330 µm/cm2/s at the moment) / max/min T: 70/79F or 22/26C / max/min RH: 51%/60% When checking...

    Question about strains to grow

    Hi everyone. I'm in the middle of my first grow indoors, but already thinking of the next ones (surely not alone in this). I've choosen White Widow for my first grow for three main reasons: I enjoyed it tremendously in the mid to late-1990's; it's an Indica/Sativa hybrid (I like that...

    Freak leaf? Edge burn of some kind? What's this?

    Hi everyone. A couple of days ago I realised one of my girls developed a leaf in which the two main "middle prongs" out of the five (gotta learn some botanical terms asap!...) are kind of overlapping each other. Almost like those two middle parts are competing with each other. Yesterday, I...

    Which of these fertilizers would you choose?

    Hi everyone! I'm in my first grow: - White Widow photoperiodic's in a 465W LED grow tent (4 x 4 x 6ft) - medium-fertilized soil (Canna Professional+), 1 gallon pots at the moment, plan on repotting to 3 gallon pots in a couple of weeks - currently at week 3 and everything's looking good This...

    Why give plants more light during flowering?

    Hi everyone. As I understand, we switch from 18/6 hrs to 12/12 hrs day/night regime to induce flowering on photoperiodic plants. Ok. Got that. But why have more intensity (ppfd's) at this stage? Everywhere I read people advise on cranking out the light intensity. If what we're doing is emulate...

    [picture-poll] Help me choose the 4 best plants from this batch

    Hi everyone. I have 8 plants approximately two weeks old. They are White Widow photoperiodics. The pots you see in the pictures are 1 gallon pots. Going with the general opinion, I will keep the 4 most promising ones, as it's not feasible having 8 plants in a 4 x 4 tent... Question now is...

    Any relation between pot capacity/height and max height the plant can grow to?

    Hi everyone! Question of the day: is there any relationship that people know of between soil capacity or height of a container and the tallest a plant can grow in there? I believe this might depend on genetics, just wanted to know if there's some rule of thumb in the lines of "With a 1 gallon...

    Planned on growing 4 plants, settled for 8. Is topping justified?

    Hi everyone! I was planning on germinating 8 seeds, then keep the most healthy looking 4 seedlings. Changed my mind and will grow the 8 plants instead. However, my grow tent didn't grow in size... I was planning to LST, then Scrog the 4 plants, but now I'm a bit confused as to what training...

    Germinated 8, planned to keep 4, now feeling sorry for the remaining ones...

    Hi everyone! Original plan for my first grow was to germinate 8 seeds, pick the 4 best looking seedlings, ditch the others. The idea was to concentrate my attention on the 4 best ones, grow and train them, do my mistakes, make the best of them, etc. Now I know what I'm going to write will...

    Are there "individual" fertilizers that let you build your N-P-K ratio?

    Hi everyone. Probably a stupid newbie question but, when it comes to fertilisers, is there an easy way to get the individual elements (N, P, K, etc.) so you can cook your own desired mix/concentration? Or do pro's like yourselves and unexperienced people alike purchase the same branded...
