My fondest (and most intense) memory of kind bud was in the early eighties as a high school senior. We had to travel over 100 miles by car to get it, but Thai Stick is to this day the most potent bud I think I have ever smoked, bar none. I think it would fall into the "Insane Weed" category...

Nice lookin babies, dude. Best of luck for a snappin crop!

I'm going really conservative on the feeding ever since I almost fried em---Must be the whole NFT thing, I think it makes them a little more sensitive to nutrients cause their roots are just floating in solution. Hey, I was gonna hang some trellis web netting to support the plants as they...

Actually I'm using 1/2 teaspoon per gallon in the main res (holds about 3.5-4 gallons), and in the 2nd res/controller I put same amount of water with just 1/2 teaspoon.

Yes Biz, I am using Maxi Gro for veg and I have Maxi Bloom for flower. You were so right about those crap nutes that came with the system, I would have killed these babies for sure if I had continued using them. I've got a little leaf discoloration as of the last few days, but I think I just...

Thanks DS and Guru for the tips, I will find some ties and get to work. DS, you are so right, I was ready to start over, but I am amazed at the resiliance of these freakin plants! They just kept comin back after every screw up I made, so needless to say, I am one happy camper, and grateful...

I'm a new grower as well, but everything I've heard or read tells me that Metal Halide(for seedling through veg) and/or High Pressure Sodium (for bloom) are your best bet. If you can't get those, it sounds like you just need more wattage and make sure your spectrum is the correct one for what...

Plants in pic are @ 1 month and 3 days from sprout, vegging 24/0 with 400w MH about 1 foot away from tops. Leaves are getting HUGE, and seem to be holding down some of the smaller budding branches. I've read that some folks prune to redistribute the growth and uncover new branch growth, but I...

Nice list, CC. Especially Private Ryan, awesome flick. Here's a few: -Raising Arizona (and just about any film by the Cohen Brothers) -U2: Rattle and Hum (best if you have a good sound system to run it through) -A Clockwork Orange -Full Metal Jacket -Tommy Boy (stoned or not, just a...

Thanks Guru I have a propogation tray and dome (got it just in case), and the tray has those grooves in it running the length of the bottom of the tray , which I think would work allow excess to drain as you said. What sort of light are you using? Do you use a heating mat/pad? I understand...

I am planning on trying to clone my plants early to determine sex prior to flowering. Maybe next week if I have good branches. I purchased drip type cloner along with my NFT system and I was just wondering if anyone had used this method. The original configuration was in a 2 gallon plastic...

Cut and plant clones from each plant that is in veg, let the clones establish roots for 5-10 days, then put them on 12/12 and force flowering and see what pops up. It's a way to identify ahead of flowering which if any of your vegging plants may be males so you can pull them prior to flower...

Thanks Biz: It's around 18" or so from the top of the tallest shrub. Should I start moving it up as they grow, or will it be okay at as low as a foot away from the tops? Also, I was thinking of cloning to determine sex, based on the pics, should I do that in the next week or two? About the...

Tomorrow will be right at 4 weeks from sprout, and they are really sucking down the res at a rapid rate. These are some of the bushiest plants I have ever seen, and some of the leaves are huge and heavy, seem to be really weighting the plant down. Is this a good or bad thing? They don't seem...

Thanks Mario--- I actually found everything on another hydro website last night. Stuff was pretty cheap, so I went ahead and ordered it. Got the gravity-fed float valve, drain fitting and second res all in one place (and I also got some trellis netting per your suggestion in the earlier...

Wow, talk about a dream gig, what a way to get paid. That is so cool. It never ceases to astonish me that this wonderful plant is still illegal in this country. By the way, my little plants are quickly turning into fat shrubs, and I think I see today the beginnings of the "alternating"...

Guru: Salton Sea is not far from me, drive right by it on occasion in my travels--what a small world! That must have been a truly wild time. WWII bombers? Holy ****! Were you at the wheel during those runs? I gotta hear more of that story when you get a chance. Would probably make a...

Thanks Mario--- A while back on another post you had mentioned that you used an extra res to keep you main one filled/topped off. My plants are really starting to drink water now that they have shot up a bit, so Iwas looking at trying to make my own "controller" with parts from the hardware...

Thanks Guru-- You may have to school me on the "alternating branches" aspect. At the rate they are going now, I think at the 6 week mark they will be ready. They are just sucking the res down and consuming like crazy. I think I will go with the clone plan you suggested, and see what happens...

What a wide open topic! As music is so subjective, there are such endless possibilities. The standards are always great: Led Zep (pretty much anything), Floyd (same, but for a real treat try album "Umma Gumma" and the track with the unbelievably long title, something like "Several Small...
