What's wrong with his finger?

if by spots you mean the small white spots they are probably from the minerals in the soil
all plants get them

>>718283529
I think it is from light burns. How close is the light source?

You have it on 24hrs day?

Probably light burn OP. Also, how clean is the grow room?

>>718283468
too much nutrient, pull back a little. other than that, keep doing what you're doing

>>718283468
the thing to notice is the tips of the leaves and how they are curled upward.. all signs point to too much nutrient... flush it out with water then let it dry out

>>718283468
Lack of nutrients in the soil. Probably iron from the looks of it.

>>718283468
is weed easy to grow? profitable?

>>718283468
The light spots are from too much nutrients that cant be handled and the leaf starts to wither and die. Use less fertilizer and try to get the pH of the soil a bit lower.

>>718284998

Easy? No. You'll constantly hear "HURRR ITS A WEED" but there's a fuck load of ways to fail.

It takes a few months to grow a plant to maturity, harvest and cure the weed. So every 3-4 months you should have product to use or sell. Smart weed growers will stagger the grow process so they have weed to harvest every month or so using a SOG setup.

where do you get the seeds? im new to this shit

>>718285269
THIS

>>718285382

Online. Anyone can buy seeds online. It's not illegal to have marijuana seeds.

>>718285269

12/12
No nutrients
I water every 2-3 days
Not sure the wattage
Cfl

>>718285518
oh shit really? weed is legal in cali now. is growing illegal? p sure it is tho

>>718285382
you can buy them from vendors online. the one good source ive heard about getting into the us is cropkingseeds
ive yet to purchase a order but they have a decent enough selection at not too bad of price. i see tons of reviews stating they got their package as expected.

>>718285629
what site? mass. here

>>718285518
>not illegal to have marijuana seeds

actually it is.

>>718285815
>cropkingseeds
oh fuck what a dumb post

>>718285584
whats the distance from the cfl bulb and the top of your plant. also are you using a hood?

be good to know that wattage anon.
and the size of the grow room
you could just have too much light reflecting and burning. especially if its close to the plant.
you wouldnt have seen it in the past because they just werent close enough.

>>718285584
Flush the pot with water ALOT that you PH to 6.0~7.0 then wait for it to dry out in the couple days after, and see if the problem persists.
The soil you put it in evidently is very hot and contains too much nutrient.

I thought you had to buy special lamps to grow bud. You can just use a CFL?

Anybody knows a good site to explain this shit?

Maybe a zinc deficiency check some of those leaves for spider mites. Look decent

>>718285941
2-3 inches from the top
Its a smaller closet about 5(probably smaller) feet wide 6 feet tall
Also I haves reflector

>>718283529
It's absolutely fine, totally normal. Now would be a good time to give it its first topping or fimming

>>718284298

His leaves aren't that dark and they aren't drooping, in fact they look like they want a little water with how the leaf tips and edges are curling.

>>718286323
now would be a good time for that wattage. 2-3 inches is pretty close.

>>718286204
http://www.growweedeasy.com/

this site is good but the reviews tend to overexplain shit, and every article repeats itself a few times inside the article (you'll see what I mean)

420magazine's grower forums are good too, and don't require having an account to view pics at full size in threads.

>>718286323
It's stressed from the light then

>>718286204
Second. Are there any picture guides or something on how to get started growing? I'd like to have a couple plants when we legalize here and I wanna make sure I don't waste months and fuck up the first grow that I have. General tips on room size (didn't know that was important), type of lights, how to set up the place and honestly everything in general on start to finish for getting decent buds

>>718286713
You can read as much as you want about growing but you're going to fuck up before you get anything that good.

>>718286204
YOUTUBE MAFUCKA.

No but for real it is not rocket science. But it is a lot of work. And it takes attention to detail. And once it starts growing you have to get over the thought that touching it will kill it. Then you learn to top/trim/stress and then you make glorious, glorious things happen.

>>718286323
WAY to close

>>718286993
i've grown tomatoes so can't be too much different i think.

>>718287084
yeah no matter the wattage

>>718287121
are you doing it outside?

>>718287252
no

>>718287121
It is. Tomatoes don't like humidity, pot dgaf. Pot takes a lot more planning, like manipulation of how the plant grows. It is much more like bonsai. Also, if you fuck up a tomato plant, no big loss. If you lose a crop of the green stuff, you'll never look yourself in the eye while you shave again.

>>718287692
Ah that makes sense. I guess if I really gave a shit about my tomatoes I could baby them to get more yield and shit. But with the bud, I have to make precise clippings and shit, right?

>>718287121
unless you've grown tomatoes indoors, you'll be surprised how different it is

>>718286941
So when I start should I just keep going through cycles of 1 plant at a time and see where I went wrong?

>>718286713
there are literally a couple thousand videos on youtube to get you started from the absolute beginning. on literally anything. how to make a grow room, how to set up ventilation systems, what lights, what power source, what seeds, soil, pots, chemicals, you fucking name it there is a video on youtube about how to do it when it comes to growing pot. and not to mention the literal millions of hits when you type it into google. if youve got time before you get legalization, start doing some reading.

i would right off the bat say to do a led grow if you decide to do indoor. it is not not bad priced out once you realize how little it actually used compared to cfl or hps systems.
there are plenty of led full spectrum with infrared that you can purchase for a fair price. and they will be alot less power hungry than cfl or hps. plus it will not put out as much heat so it would also be easier to control that aspect when you are talking about the temperature if you have a small grow room. one last thing id recomend is if you decide to start from seedling or clone. try to get a auto flowering strain. you can purchase them online, but im sure youd be able to find something at a dispensary when that time comes. with a auto flower you wouldnt have to change the light cycle to start the budding. after a certain time the plants will bud themselves. this is just one easier step when you are first starting to grow. once you figure out the soil, ph, and every other little thing that can go wrong its just one less stress until you get a little better at it. the advantage of having a non-autoflowering plant is you can control the size it will grow before budding. which would mean a higher yield. just my .02 i guess. idk
im pretty stoned. and sleep deprived.

>>718287871
It's not terribly meticulous work. But you have to keep your eye on the prize or the thing will grow like a weed and you won't get as much. The goal is to get as many even height colas as possible for whatever space you are working in. Then the goal is to keep your mouth shut about it and not do something stupid like sell it. Oh, and it smells like pot EVERYWHERE. Just be forewarned.

>>718284071
idk is his thumb nail small? his index finger looks short in the first picture but normal in the second.

Grower here, it's fine.

>>718287982
No, don't worry about that. You can always take a clipping and clone it. Just try to grow one plant well, when it starts to have a problem, take a clone and do better with the clone while you try to fix the primary. You'll end up with several clones, and you'll be able to see how you did. If they auto flower, this is esp easy, but if you are controlling light then you may end up having them all in a flowering stage at some point. This isn't a big deal, as the youngest won't flower and when you harvest you can switch the wee ones (now small plants) back to vegetative or you can take out the young ones every few days and give some light to break their cycle back to vegetative.

>>718288478
OKay so I've obviously never done this and really most of my only knowledge of the plant is the differences between smoking indica or sativa. So I'm guessing to take a clone you just clip one of the buds on the lower bit of the plant (I think most of the seeds are in the lower buds), find a seed and just plant that and try to avoid what went wrong with the parent plant

>>718288830
if you have seeds in your plant then you have a male plant and thats no good. it wont bud like a female plant will. its just going to produce more seeds for you.

>>718288830
Youtube. You basically chop off a small branch from the bottom of the plant (one that won't make a good cola), then put it in water. Then get a little rooting cube and cut the bottom at a 45degree angle, then put it in the cube. Also rooting hormone helps. BTW you can do this with damn near any plant.

>>718288961
Male plants don't actually make seeds. They make pollen that fucks your females, then your females make seeds.

>>718288830
this person>>718288478
is talking about cloning. if you want bud to smoke you would need to do this to a female plant.
you take a leaf clipping from one of the lower branches and replant it using some root nutrients and it will grow into a second plant.


what you are talking about here>>718288830
is finding a seed on a plant and planting it. which i even doubt its mature enough to even grow if its still attached to the plant.

>>718288961
Is the bud off of female plants better than males or are they the same?

>>718289159
you are correct. sorry as i stated before about using autoflowering ive only ever bought feminized autoflowering seeds before. ive never actually ran into a male seed from just having feminized already. so i didnt know much about them.

>>718289825
a male plant will not produce bud.

i would give this a look over so you can have a better understanding
http://www.growweedeasy.com/marijuana-boy-girl

>>718289906
No problem. Just trying to keep my fellow degenerates well stoned.

>>718290060
So is the male plant of any use?
Obviously other than using it for paper aND all that other great shit that hemp is useful for, I'm just tryna grow my own to smoke

>>718283624
LMAO

>>718289825
Yeah so the moral of all of this is you really should read about this before you get into it. If you are in a state where it is legal to grow, then just try it. It is fun to grow. If you aren't, do some reading first and then decide if its worth the risk. So long as you aren't selling, it may even be safer to grow than to buy, but theres a lot to know and it may not be worth it to you. Most of us who grow actually like growing it (or in my case anything really).

>>718290236
For real though why have the government's of the world not stopped with all this deforestation (especially of the Amazon) and just fucking switched to hemp for obviously everything but the big lumber because you need an actual tree to get logs and wood planks but literally everything else that is produced from tree material could be made from hemp. You can even make fucking clothes out of it. People of Africa could be clothed from hemp shit alone

>>718288478
if you think you can have a tiny ass plant in a budding light cycle for a couple weeks, and then switch it back to veg after your harvest is complete, then you sir are a fucking idiot. no other way to put it.

no matter the size of the plant it will still bud.
people grow in fucking shot glasses for fun.

you can find tons of tiny plant videos budding on youtube as well.

>>718290390
Honestly for me it'd just kinda be a second garden that I can pick from but I'm smoking the things from this garden. Yea I can tell I have lots to learn but I'm really glad that the Marijuana community on /b/ is so helpful

>>718290428
Paper used to be made out of it. Clothing. Rope. Food. Solvents. Paints. The list goes on and on. Meanwhile here in America our government has let opioids and benzos fucking destroy the rural areas.

>>718290236
your male plant is useless, sorry. order some feminized seeds offline. or if you are in a legal state you can come by them fairly easy. you could also get a clone from your dispensary if thats the case. first if i was you i would read read read and read some more. if you want to do it right and be able to have enough to last til your next harvest, id do your research.

You know what strain it is OP?

>>718290539
Yeah... so I've done it. 12/12 with occasional interruptions is do-a-ble for short term. Is it annoying? Yes. But can you make it work? Yes. The point though that i was trying to make is that you can make this work pretty easily with minimal stuff if you read and pay attention to the plants. On a large scale, that would be a bad idea. But this guy is new to this and thinking about one plant and worried he'll kill it and it will be budless. I've seen a lot of bad grows and bad setups and bad ideas. But let's be real, unless he can't sex the plant right, he probably won't be budless.

>>718283468
could be a number of things. could be something as simple as you split some water on it when watering and light burnt it. could be high nutes but that would depend what your feeding and what your runoff is. Check all the other tips, do they contain the burnt ends? If so thats mostly nutes, normally I strive to have just the bare ends just slighly like that, it tells me im riding that line of the max they need. I rock coco tho so its totally different as I can flush easy and quick and basically do a reset button. What strain are they? PPM, ph, nutes, etc would be helpful.

>>718290949

>>718290949

This is exactly it though. We'd "save the trees man" way more by not having to cut as many down if everyone just went back to using this shit. It was only made illegal in the first place because it opened up the mind of the sheep and governments don't like a free thinker

>>718291248
Yep. Our world is not built on the best ideas though, it is built on keeping money and power in the hands of those with money and power.

>>718291112
Screen of green method. You have to bend/break the stems and weave into the netting to maintain the distance between the tops and light and keep it consistent.

>>718291455
Yeah thats what I do too. Actually that in combination with topping and LST. Works like a charm

>>718291367
Been at it since 1995 and tryed every method you could imagine. Licenced and have run a 230 and 275 light show with 4 100' greenhouses for guys. It's sucked dick cause only me and my buddy were there at the one place and had to work up to 16 hrs a day 7 days a week. Shitheads kept trying to rob us also

>>718290949
i love how you can see the small dip from the middle plants to the outside ones becuase of the light reflecting down the hood closer to the plants.

not trying to say youre doing something wrong

I use a one part salt food now instead of 3 part first off. My last run cost about 20 dollars in food and I ran 16 lights with a high feeding strain. Keep it as simple as you can and don't buy into all the fancy foods the stores try and sell you first off. I add dolomite lime to my soilless and keep my ph for food at 6.3-6.5. Feed 2 times and water then repeat. You have to watch your plants and see how they look and react to the food. If they start to look overfed more water and try 1feed 1 water. I like to water a little lighter and more frequent. I don't go for super saturated but very wet and let it almost completely dry out then water. Depending on the strain you will need to vary you feed streingth. Get a TDS pen to measure food streingth and a ph pen. Ideally a Bluelab with the soil probe so you can actually measure the ph in the medium. Then you can accurately feed and diagnose what you are doing and get a baseline. Write down everything you do on a calendar so you can keep track of where you are and can look back on that and repeat what you have done before and make small single changes to your methods to perfect what you do. If you change 10 things you will not be able make any progress and dial in you room and system

>>718292957
Thanks. Golden. Much appreciated

>>718293129
No prob. I would also suggest trying to get clones or making a mother plant and make your own clones once you have found a strain you really like. If you get feminized seed be very careful of the hermaphroditing and self pollinating. You can easily end up with male flowers and buds full of seeds wasting your time. I'm not saying don't use them but try and look up where they come from and how reputable the breeder is so you get the good stuff. Top breeders usually have top quality strains that are stable and I'd say shoot for that

Nice it looks good man. I have blue dream and am the only person locally with a sativa. (Took a lot of work to get that one) and all the stores are screaming for sativas. Defiantly going to look into the amnesia. I want the ghost train and super lemon haze. My buddy had the lemon for years and it is absolute top shelf.
Running mk ultra that's very OG dominant and I'm extremely happy with it. OG quality with twice the size and a bit of sweetness to it instead of the pepper smell

>>718295353
Right. I was just asking if it is one of the bubbler buckets.

>>718296118
yeah it would be a dwc. theyre known as space buckets because they are great for a small indoor solution. the pump and light needed are very low power and noise. so they work well for indoor closet grows.

>>718296118
nah its dirt.

>>718296672
Right. I did deep water once and didn't do so well. My buddy helped these guys develop the current culture system and used to be their tech/consultant for our area. He lent me a 9 bucket system and I played with it and didn't want him to baby sit me. It worked but I made the mistake of putting 3 different strains in there and they didn't jive food streingth wise.Fungas gnats also and I Cooked 6 of them feeding too strong and pulled them out and finished. He was surprised I actually got the first one off as most people kill the first one as it is so finicky

>>718283468
Not light burn. It looks like the leaf was damaged physically. Maybe pinched by accident.

Color looks good, so correct amount of nutrient. Good tips of leaves, so no bacteria or fungus in the water.

The plants look pretty big already. They should be put into flowering now, or else they will be huge before harvest and give a lower yield. Give 24 hours of darkness, then switch to 12 hour days. (Don't make it 12.5 or you will get some flowers transitioning to male and producing pollen.)

You didn't show the underside of the leaves. That's where bugs will show up first.
