Why the First Few Grows Can Seem So Tough...
by Sirius Fourside
I’m not ashamed to admit that my first few grows ended in complete and utter failure. I had some bad information, and I combined that bad information with some over-priced products and a dash of over-zealousness. Each of those times, I ended up with plants that never got the chance to make even tiny buds I could actually harvest!
With some time and practice, I can now grow more better-than-medical-dispensary bud than I can use while expending a minimal amount of effort. But I’m not special!
Feminized cannabis seeds make hermies?!

When people think of the word ‘hydroponics’, they think of growing with lots of water. Although the term ‘hydroponics’ includes mediums such as coco coir, the term originally referred to growing your plants with their roots in water.
How to Use a Cheap Lux Meter to Increase Yields
by Nebula Haze
Note: This tutorial doesn't work for LEDs. A lux meter is only effective at measuring light levels for MH, HPS, CFLs, T5s, and fluorescent lighting. Unfortunately, a lux meter is not a good tool for measuring light levels of LED grow lights when it comes to growing cannabis.
Did you know you can get more out of your grow lights by measuring your light levels with a lux meter?
LST - Low Stress Training
by Nebula Haze
Key Takeaway: You can use LST (Low Stress Training - a technique that gently bends plants) to create multiple colas. LST also allows you to force cannabis plants to grow into a shape and size you want - even if you only have a tiny grow space!
Example: All this bud is growing on a single 18" tall plant in someone's homemade grow box!
(this wouldn't be possible without LST/plant training)
