Yep but they're currently bringing new tech out every day with that. Fluros have been replaced with LEDs but they price is through the roof. A lot of shops are selling the old fluros pretty cheap. I got mine half price which is why I thought I'd try it out. Don't use a reptile ballast. they're useless af for the garden as they designed to spread the light on a small space. Check out how I've got them hanging on my grow. I hate it lol and it's a dodgy half assed effort at adding UV. But if you just have a couple of plants it'd be fine. I'm looking into ordering UV LED Diodes and making my own UV bar but that's more of a side hobby.

Is this feminized plant a male?1 of my 4 feminized plants appears to be growing pollen sacks. Most of the nodes have strange growths and pods on the plant, but a few of them look like normal female flowers. Should I rip this plant out now? Or can I just cut off the branches with pods?

Any advice for a rookie? - Northern Thunderfuck AutoHello,
i've been experimenting a lot with this plant (LST, fertilizer, lighting, cropping) in order to learn.
The plant is in week 7/8.
Are there any problems/ mistakes visible (other than trimming too much mby)?
Any general tips?

Should i top her already? [newbie]Hello guys,
since the 5th set of leaves started forming i was wondering if now is the right time to top the plant?
I'm also thinking about topping up some soil to help with future LST.
Any suggestions on how to proceed further?

Is this a Cannabis Seedling?I have a whole story about this seed (can be read in my grow diary "The Princess"), so there is a reason why I am unsure.
Is this a Cannabis seedling, yay or nay? She does look different.
Sadly I can't update here in a few days but will in the diary. Make your bets ;)

Pollen sacks or powdery mildew?I noticed what I thought was powdery mildew on a leaf, then noticed funny looking things right next to the powder. I think these are pollen sacks, and if they are I want to know if anything is recoverable, or if I need to scrap the whole plant/grow. "Second Grow" on my profile

Is the high temperature something to be concerned about?
