Duct tape works in emergency if you break a branch.

Growing indica dominants under fluorescents is for experts; growing pure sativas under fluorescents is for crazy mad scientist experts.
One for the rook
One for the crow
One to rot
and one to grow

Naw my Friend its not that difficult. It does take practice and you should start small and build up. Use what you have and can afford.Jesús Malverde wrote:Growing indica dominants under fluorescents is for experts; growing pure sativas under fluorescents is for crazy mad scientist experts.
My earliest successful grow. I had flourescent lights in the celing. Couldn't move them down so I moved the plants up on top of cabinets.
Noob but.. This was before the innernet and seed sales. You bought weed you also bought seed.
Sprouting bag seed... practice.
Pure Sativas .. bagseed.. pain in ass but you can grow it. It's just not worth your time unless your learning to grow and practicing.

You can grow under a light bulb... My first plant.
11th grade?
I met a Preying Mantis I put in with it.
She spoke to me in her hand signaling language.
Unfortunately, I can't remember what she said because I don't speak Preying Mantis.

I remember that book. Those are actually pretty damn nice looking buds for growing Columbian Gold under shop lights! I felt like king of the world when i got ones that nice. The cool part was that the smoke you got after going through all that was actually really fine.

That would be nice, The local cops (Sheriff deputies) can get around that if they want simply by NOT arresting me for the criminal offense under Prop64, but as a $250 infraction (a ticket only) under prop65.Roots wrote:No matter how conservative of a county you live in there is no DA in your state who would take your case...and no jury who would convict.
Sure I can contest it by showing up for court, but I'd still lose my plants and time in court and still may have to pay the 250 cause I was wasting the judge's precious time.
Boy that would really up my cost per ounce.
I just want to grow my inevitable 11 footer monster in my veggie garden this year and be square and legal. Legal For what that is worth with pigs.
But this nagging consideration what I have now works, no one knows, no rippers to worry about, if it ant broken don't fix it .. sorta thing.

Week 15 from seed. Another 3-4 weeks?
Should I flush my plants? By flushing I mean put 'em on the ground outside and run the water hose over the dirt for a good minuet or so.
Who else does it, besides irwin? Why?

Looking good
To me, "flushing" is a corrective measure of running excessive amounts of water through the soil to dissolve and remove excess amounts of nutrients. To others it is a process at the end of flowering, and even then there are differences of opinion. Some flush the soil and then just let the plant eat itself...while others simply stop using nutes and let the plant use what remains built up in the soil.
...and none of that applies to organic soils...only to fertilized soils and mediums that require nutes to be delivered via watering. Meals, guano, stone, etc. are very hard to flush from a soil.
Personally, I like to follow a proper feeding schedule and call it a day. Most nute companies have a use schedule for their products. All of the ones I have ever seen call for a tapering off of use at the end of the plant's life cycle. For any regular use nutrients that did not come with a schedule, I have generally found that going half strength aboot 14-16 days out and then nute-less aboot 10-12 days out has produced the best results for me.
...but that's just this man's opinion.
First and foremost, understand that the term "flushing" has vastly different meanings to different folks.Intrinsic wrote:Should I flush my plants? By flushing I mean put 'em on the ground outside and run the water hose over the dirt for a good minuet or so.

Cool, Thanks and thanks Bob, since i am organic (cause it's cheaper) i guess it's moot. I already stopped feeding anyways, (i'm cheap remember) , just wondering ... since the leaf tips are now just starting to show some small nute burn and Irwin seems to know what he is doing.
Also i never feed at at full recommend strength, no more then half recommended. As Uncle Ben (remember him) would say "More is less".
