I'll try keeping mine more wet. Just added water to the trays and crossing my fingers!

My ant plants decided in the last few months to stop producing leaves. Each plant only has 1 or 2 leaves on it and they only grow to mid-size before dropping off. I keep them under a 1020 dome so there's adequate humidity. The media is also kept damp but not soaking wet. I feed every 2-4 weeks...

Yeah, it seems a lot of people on the cannabis growing forums are switching to daylight LED strips/COBs. 4000k is a sweet spot for both vegetative growth and flowering.

@daniella3d you are the sarr queen haha my babies are still tiny tiny little things despite growing for about a year. I have them ~4" under two T5HO's and they're still tiny. I really need to feed them more...

While blurple lights are great for plants, they severely hindered my enjoyment of the plants so I went with daylight LEDs. Get some good 3500-5000k LED lights and both you and your plants will be happy. You can buy a pre-made light or build your own. There are a ton of plans/guides on...

I'm using some smartplugs off amazon and the "Smart Life" app but the app doesn't have a sunrise/set feature. Which app are you using? I love that you can monitor energy consumption with these plugs!

Came back from Alberta a couple weeks ago. On the trail back from the top of Devil's Thumb about Lake Louise:

Crystal star orchids has imbricata available for $15

I'm interested! Can you send me an availability/price list?

4000k is perfect in my opinion if you're going to go with a single wavelength. In fact, if you look at most LED spectrum graphs, 4000k actually covers the full spectrum a little better than 5000k or 3500k. I personally use an assortment of 4000k-only lights as well as 3500+5000 lights.

You can try removing all the media to see if they can be teased apart. that would be the ideal situation. In my experience, if they are growing very tightly together, they might be difficult to split apart. If the younger plants are offshoots, they may not have a strong root system yet and it...

Found the recipe! Will have to give it a try. I'm also getting some (systemic?) pesticides from Willy as well so I feel well armed against these guys.

Getting a TDS meter is almost essential if you're unsure of your local tap water TDS levels. For the time being, I would stick with buying jugs of distilled water. I ended up investing in a RO/DI system as buying jugs and jugs of water became really impractical.

Can anyone suggest an insecticide against thrips for helis? I have some End-All but didn't see anyone mention using it on their helis.

I have a pocket microscope I can use to see if I can spot any thrips/mites. I have a jug of concentrated End-All insecticide (include miticide). Does anyone know if it's safe to use for CPs?
