    My first Glog

        I get those bumps on my plants when I over water.  I think its edema?  This year, I had some baccatums that I chopped down for the winter.  The new growth has tons of these bumps.  In that instance, my theory is that the root structure was used to supplying turgor pressure to a large plant...

    health Kratky Hydro - What am I doing wrong?

    The roots did clear up, but the plant is growing slowly. I am having much better luck feeding nutrients to my plants that are in soil from the bottom I spray painted a clear container from walmart.

    seeds Started germination, putting in cup.

    I germinate my seeds and transfer them to soil as well.   1) when i put the soil in the cup, how compact should it be? I don't compact the soil; just leave it loose.   2) should i wet the soil before putting the seedling inside? Yes.  If you wet the soil afterword, you might wash your seedling...

    chinense Store bought habanero vs. home grown habanero

    You could pull some seeds from the store bought and grow them out.  That would give you an idea if its a genetic change or environmental.

    crust on hydro solution

    I had this happen to me when I added epsom salt to my GH nutes.  I think I added too much.  For me, I think the epsom salt or other compound was precipitating out of the solution and forming a film.

    Not Peter pepper... but what are they?

    I was going to say Thai, but they look too fat for that.

    health Kratky Hydro - What am I doing wrong?

      I'm thinking about buying a small pump and airstone.  Do you think I would still need treatments or sanitizing solution if I go that route?

    health Kratky Hydro - What am I doing wrong?

      Water level is about 2 inches below the net cup.       They don't seem too slimy at the moment.  They were pretty slimy before I had my ph corrected.     I'll go ahead and trim the old brown roots out tonight and replace with fresh nutrients.  Thank you all for the suggestions.

    Do you think it would hurt to trim the old brown roots off?

    health Kratky Hydro - What am I doing wrong?

    I setup a small Kratky hydro experiment a month ago using a red Bhut.  Initially, my PH was too basic, so the largest leaves started to yellow and initial roots turned dark.  But, after I picked up a ph meter and ph control kit, the plant picked up nicely and had good looking new leaf and root...

    Homemade Cardboard Dehydrator

      I agree.  Last year, I tried leaving them out in the open to dry, but wasn't getting enough airflow.  I'm sure you could accomplish the same thing with a box fan pointed at the pods, but it wouldn't be as quiet or compact.     This is what the pods look like after 2 days.  Not quite done yet.

    Homemade Cardboard Dehydrator

    I'm too cheap to buy a dehydrator, so here is my DIY solution.  Its free if you have any old pc parts.   I used this last year to dehydrate my orange and red habs so that I could make powder.  I'm sure this doesn't dry as fast as a real dehydrator, but it works for my low volume of pods.  If I...

    hydroponic General Hydroponics Flora Ratios

      Thanks for the reply Yellowfin2na.  In his videos, it seems like Khang Starr is using equal parts of bloom, grow, and micro through the whole process.  Just to clarify, you only use bloom and micro during blooming, and only use grow and micro during veg?    I just got done putting together the...

    hydroponic General Hydroponics Flora Ratios

    Hi Guys,   I'm going to try a kratky setup similar to what Khang Starr shows on his youtube channel.  https://www.youtube.com/user/KhangStarr010/videos   I noticed he is using equal ratios of the General Hydroponics Flora series.  I picked up the general hydroponics trio today, but I noticed...

    Aji Amarillo?

    I have two Aji Amarillo plants going and they look a lot like yours, just not as tall since I have them in small containers.  Mine are not bushy either.
