I am growing an unknown strain. All was going well, I transplanted into a bigger pot, after a few days I noticed a yellow spec and some a bit of yellow on the end of a serrate near the end of the blade of my bottom single leaf on the first node. I clipped the bottom fan leaves because I read it could potentially be a fungus and was instructed to mist on some neem oil mixed in water directly to the leaves. I did so and wiped the excess off but when I came back to it not 5 hours later I noticed dark spotting and what looked like slight decaying on one of the leaves. Now it looks as if the new growth also has a slight bend to the right. I used a soil mix a had handy outside but I fear it was tampered with my a family member by them adding too many different nutrients. But I can’t be positive. Can anyone give me some suggestions as to what I’m dealing with? How to fix it?
I got my seeds to sprout 5x gold and 2 bubba kush autos outdoors.im in California by Disneyland.is it okay what’s the timeline or should I have waited?
Morning everyone I have a problem maybe one of you can help me with. I have a plant in late flower that is showing problems with nutes, Im not sure how long to let it grow and now has slight spider mite infestation what to do pull it or wait 2 weeks???
Wow, personally I would start by removing all the dead leaves. What week of flower are you in? I don’t have allot of experience w spider mites, but captain jacks gets allot of praise around here! But I Don’t think it’s to be used when in flower??
I would clean her up remove all the damage you can if far enough in flower cut her down and check out a bud wash video. Eradicate the bug issue and get the next round moving let’s grab @Newt I know he does a bud wash etc and can possibly help w the mites.
I had spider mites on 1 on my plants, a Medgom CBD, but not in flower. My wife had some stuff for her houseplants, Schultz Insecticide, and it stated good for veggies etc right up to eating them. Being unsure (ok, paranoid!) I googled the ingredients and came across this page (hope it doesn’t get deleted due to link):
It lists things commercial and home growers can use, their concentrations, and when/how late you can apply. I figure if the commercial grows can use its active ingredient in a heavier concentration, I could spritz my plants once or twice and be safe. So I did, mites be gone and plant is healthy.
And I agree with @Thumper, get rid of that dead crap, let the air move in there and get better spray penetration to kill those mites!
You want to make the environment wetter, and cooler, if possible. Mites love dry hot environments.
Also spray the plants with cpt Jack’s, if you can’t get it you could use viniger or iso…
The ideal thing to do would be to order a pack of lady bugs as well. And release them inside your tent.
Don’t be mad at me .I’m a slow learner with everything…so I’m just gonna ask my question…how much does the electric bill go up average.monthly whatever.haveing a minimum grow tent…thanks .
Where I am, a kwh is $0.14. That’s running 1000 watts for an hour. My light is about 460w when on 100%, and with fans etc, let’s just call it 500watts. Therefore 7 cents/hour. During veg, 18 hours per day, or about $1.25/day. During flower on 12/12, under $0.90/day. Now those are the maximums, I don’t really have my lights cranked up for the whole grow. So my estimated hydro is $40/month during veg, and about $25/month during flower.
Yep, just check your electric bill for your kw (1000 watts/hour) cost and start adding stuff up.
This time around I plugged everything into my meter just for fun, and punched in my local costs. The first 3 weeks are giving me this for a monthly bill with my rates. Should hit around a $20/month average once I get through flowering. I have some new stuff I don’t have accurate runtimes on, like a chiller.
In Alberta, energy, beef, and booze are cheap! And housing (compared to BC). I thought about retiring out there, but then I’d have to leave God’s country
I grew up in Princeton, where my dad who’s an old hippy and smokes all my stuff still lives.
Now I live in central Alberta, it’s the only way I’ll get ahead in life. Sure ain’t gonna get ahead in bc let alone a Vancouver.
Now I’m a safety consultant in the oil and gas industry and just starting to make headway at 36.
Gross should be 180k… Although if I stayed in bc I probably would have gotten into tech and be making 300k lol.
I don’t smoke, I don’t drink much at all (expensive when I do though I like the good stuff) and I beef is expensive everywhere lol
Starting the seeds right now for outdoor .in So Cal. The temp is hot sunny .in July. Is that okay ? Is what I meant …I’ll still get buds by December right.? I want to grow indoors but I ain’t money like that …I have to save .but doing all this new learning …about growing Bud …this and that…outdoor .pros n cons .the indoors .prices on everything…all New to me … straight amateur hour.r.to be honest when I ordered the seeds I didn’t even think they would come .so now that I received them .then I started them
Sounds about right @Ralphy, but I grow indoors in hydro in a northern climate, so I am so not the guy to ask. It’s @Nicky 's thread, and he’ll steer you right, so suggest to hit him up if he doesn’t reply today.
Yeh, it can be a little overwhelming at first. Depending on your soil, you might get by for free, but you’ll probably have to amend with some kind of nutrients, and maybe one or two meters/gauges for pH, etc., but outdoors in the soil is definitely the cheapest way to go imho. You’re in good hands here, these guys really know their craft, so don’t stress. Ask questions, do what the pros tell ya, and you’ll be golden!
let’s grab
