Hey Everybody! Late fall is upon us and things are starting to finally slow down up here on the ridge. I've spent over 6 weeks digging sang.Pulling up tomato stakes and plastic has kept me pretty busy. My wife also got me to start building the big worm fence that she has wanted all these years...

It really comes down to the genetics of the seed, the environment and even feeding and watering scehedules can affect your percentage. Bob is correct especially late in the flowering cycle when a plant is straining to reproduce male flowering can and does occur. As far as the pure percentages...

Obviously a Jamaican Variety!

This is a great thread but I thought that i would chime in here. Some of the differences that folks have been describing are because of a problem with our first supposition. That problem is that alot of companies don't truly have consistantly true breeding lines to start with. I have been...

I'm getting ready to pop 10 Onyx Auto flowers. I've heard good things so I will keep you posted. They are regular seeds so I hope to be able to try to come up with my own auto seeds.

I found that ayuto flowers do respond well to LST type techniques. However, and it's a big however, to get results you have to do it fairly early in the growth cycle. Once the plant starts flowering it's too late. It is somewhat like tying down a regular plant once it has really set into flower...

Hey Bill.. I noticed the exact same thing but that is just indicative of the non-hybrid nature of the seed that we are dealing with. Almost none of the seeds we by are actually true breeding hybrids but they are rather crosses with similar traits but with differing phenotypes acrossed a...

Ok ..remember that you asked for it...here is the common sense run down on autoflowering seeds in Holler's world. First, let's discuss basic marijuana species. There are 3... -Cannabis sativa: The most commonly recognized species. Longer thinner leaflets, usually more leaflets per leaf...

Hey Eno! Welcome to the mountain. As far as strain selection it really does boil down to trial and error and personal preference. Have you already set up your room? Best of luck and I will also ech Maui's comments. There are some of the most helpful knowledgable folks on this site. Anything...

Welcome to the Mountain Oopsi! If we can ever help you out just let us know and we'll learn stuff together! Best of luck!

I am a pretty heavy defoliator indoors especially but mainly as a plant enters late vegging through mid flower. Then I let em go unless there are light penetration problems. Again it makes sense when you consider what physiological changes the plant is going through at this time. Hey Dadums I...

Hey Klondike! You have a couple of issues. Lets start at the beginning. A vermiculite, perlite peat mix is alright but if your percentages are off or if you use coarse un screened peat it is easy to get microbial nitrogen tie up. Your feeding schedule is excessive so you have the unusual...
