Hi guys! I'm a little concerned about an upcoming drug test for a job I'm hoping to get. I knew I was going to be looking soon, so I stopped smoking almost 2 months ago, and when I got an interview for today I ordered the DrugConfirm one panel test kit to make sure I was clean if they offered me...

Hey guys, fairly new grower here (2nd season) and I've got a fairly decent size outdoor grow and throughout the season I've dealt with everything from revegging to caterpillars to nute problems. As harvest approaches, I've been keeping an eye on a plant that's been maturing faster than the rest...

I'm about to start week 6 of flower. My best guess is light burn, (250W HPS about 14 inches from canopy), but I could be wrong. I've switched to my LED light to help. Any advice or ideas would be much appreciated. I've been very conservative with nutrients, using 1/2 str of the FF lineup...
