These plants are 3 weeks into flower and for the most part, are looking better than I'd hoped, but I'm noticing some of the smaller flowers on the lower branches have already started to turn a reddish/brown color, while the main and upper colas are still all white. Is this normal, or does it...

gotcha---thanks

Very informative and a cool story-- Just about 3 weeksa into flower now, so I will be trying this when I harvest-- MoJo

same thing just happened to me---what will happen if the damaged cola is left?

I gotta agree w/Guru on this one, no offense. I think a much higher resolution picture might be needed to establish a match, don't you? Your weed must be potent, bro!

Thanks DS: Turns out I had to get rid of them at the roots anyway, as they had clogged my drain pipe and caused a major flood in the closet, complete with carpet soaking and accompanying leak in the kitchen ceiling below. What a day it's been. If I ever needed this bud to be ready it would be...

Thanks, Steve, I know exactly what you mean. This is my first grow and I have obsessed over it as though it were a firstborn. I too have learned that sometimes you just gotta give the plant what it needs and let mother nature take care of the rest. I'm hoping to only have 2 males out of those...

That is some bodaciously sweet lookin bud, DS! So I can clone after plants have flowered and produced bud? I always thought that was a no-no... By the way, I think your prediction was right on, it looks like 2 males and four females out of the total 6 plants. If you have time, could you...

I have identified at least two male plants out of the 6 in my NFT system, and I want to yank those puppies before they can start droppin their demon seed on my females. Problem is, they are so freakin huge, the roots are massive and well established in the trays, possibly intertwined with the...

Skunk: LOL, indeed. That's not my picture, and I don't have nuts anywhere near that big. The photo is one of the esteemed author and American icon Kurt Vonnegut. If you haven't read any of his books, do yourself a favor and do so, they are enlightening, to say the least. My plants just...

Plants are now 5 weeks and 3 days from sprout, been on 12/12 400w hps for last 3 days. I've been noticing what looks like evidence of something munching on the leaves (see pics). First time grower, so I wouldn't know how to identify a pest problem if I saw one. I've heard spider mites are a...

Twilight Zone indeed, Guru. I read that news story this morning as well, and I too thought nothing seemed to add up. I'm no conspiracy theorist by any stretch, but I'm sure they are not now, nor will they be in the future, telling the public the whole story on this one. Chariots of the...

Just picked up that Radio Shack microscope, you guys were right, only nine bucks, works great. I won't be harvesting for a while, but I plan on using it also to watch for primordia/sexing on the ones I am about to put into 12/12. Thanks for the tip dudes--MoJo

Cool, thanks Biz, and by the way, how's your crop doing?

I have been using distilled water since sprout on my plants and am now about to go into flower after 5 weeks veg. I just purchased an RO filtration system and plan on using that from now on. Will the change from distilled water to RO stress or otherwise affect the plants at this stage, and...

Sweet lookin plants, man. You are gonna have some good stuff come harvest time(s). Sounds like you have this SOG down. Is SOG a viable method with hydro, or does it work best with soil? I have the perfect set-up in my closet (sectioned off, seperately ventilated upper shelf unit), but I would...

Thanks for the tip Diseased, I will get soem oust and try it out-- What are the odds of getting all female plants? Ever happen to you? Just curious...

Thanks Biz, I will go with the gro nutes for first few weeks of bloom. Hey Diseased, I was guessing the same outcome, so maybe we can actually cancel out any jinx that way! Of course, I'm also holding out a very unrealistic shred of hope that they are all females, but hey, a guy can dream...

Thanks Biz and Guru, I will start flower cycle this weekend. Hot Damn! So Guru, I was reading one of your posts yesterday where you said to continue the veg nutes for the first few weeks of flower (was it 3 weeks?), prior to switching to bloom nutes. I have 2 part GH Maxi series ("Gro" and...

Sunday these plants will be 5 weeks old. the tallest one is already just over a foot (the shortest at just under 10"), and I only have 3 feet under my light total headroom/clearance. I read that the plants can almost double in height during the first 3 weeks of flower, so should I wait another...
