Cedar oil, Mungbean? Please tell us more...

Have you tried putting the dehumidifier outside of the tent to dehumidify the room that the tent sits in?

According to Wikipedia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Springtail ), Springtails (there are many species) are evolved from arthropods. Scientists have only recently stopped considering them as insects. 1. So, if you are considering using a pesticide, it might be better to use an arachnicide instead of an insecticide. 2. (from Wikipedia:) "Springtails commonly consume fungal hyphae and spores, but also have been found to consume plant material and pollen, animal remains, colloidal materials, minerals and bacteria. ....Springtails have internal mouth parts." So, if you could treat the top of your soil with a fungicide, you might deprive them of their food. Because a fungicide might also harm your mychorrhizae, I would suggest only a topical spray treatment of the soil, but a thorough spraying and cleaning of the moist or wet parts of your tent. 3. You could also try a method that works well against roaches. After the cleaning of your tent, sprinkle about a little powdered Boron. The Boron gets on their legs and hairs and on their food. When roaches clean themselves or eat the Boron, it doesn't kill them right away, instead, it enters their digestive tract and destroys their ability to digest their food. They die, and when their body is eaten by the next roach, that individual suffers a similar fate. The roach transports the poison to the other roaches. This makes Boron so effective. I would expect that Boron might also be effective against Springtails. Here is additional information about Springtails from Orkin Pest Control company. https://www.orkin.com/other/springtails/ Of particular interest is their method of reproduction, and the fact that they reproduce in large numbers, hence large infestations if not treated.

Aha, now I see the problem. Your exhaust pipe is only pointing toward a window that is partially open. That is why the heat is building-up in the room. This is the same as venting into the same room that the tent is sitting in. It accomplishes virtually nothing to improve the reduction of temperature and humidity, and it it is only minimally efficient at replacing the Oxygen-rich air with ambient CO2.

So, maybe they're growing their market and marketing.

I assume that the extractor is sucking on the filter, and that the filter is located as high in the tent as possible? If the extraction/filter is not sucking air out of the highest point in the tent, then you will have heat build-up. Additionally, usually tent manufacturers provide vents low in the tent wall somewhere that can be opened. Those openings in my tents have also a fabric screen to keep pests out when the flap is opened. I adjust the size of the opening to fine-tune the humidity level against the strength of the suction. Concaving sides of tent? Most tent manufacturers sell additional side braces especially for that purpose; they are similar to the top bracing if your tent has those. Using inexpensive gardening sticks or bamboo sticks and the creative use of cable ties, you can fashion a similar solution. If you are especially eager to expand the inner volume of the tent against the sucking action of the extractor, consider using a small diameter PVC electrical- or water-pipe curled into a circle or 3/4 circle and lashed to the internal braces of the tent. The circular shape will hold the tent in a more convex shape.

Here's a little twist on the topic's theme. Music to scare the bejesus out of viewers during a grow journal... ...but well done.

BMG, have patience. You may be surprised what she yields. One of my worst runts (during the GreenHouse Kush Contest) remained with just 2 deformed true leaves for 4 weeks before it finally decided to grow further. She eventually became THE largest of my GH Kushes in that contest grow. Besides, did you say that you transferred her to coco in hopes of correcting a deficiency? Hmmm, coco is virtually devoid of nutrients, so if she recovered, then it could be that she simply finally decided to grow her roots, and conditions like pH had somehow corrected themselves over time and she was finally able to use what was available to her within the rootball soil. In coco, you will have to feed her similarly to the schedule used in hydro grows.

Welcome to StrainHunters, S.mokee74. I had never heard of Mills Nutrients, so I googled them to find them. Interesting, they claim to manufacture all their products in Holland, but they do not sell any of their product in Europe. Their website seems to indicate that their sales are only through retailers located in Oregon and maybe California or Washington State. Furthermore, since in their website, there is no acknowledgement of the cannabis plant at all, they are possibly ashamed or afraid to acknowledge their participation in the cannabis industry, and it could be that their fertilizer products are not fine-tuned to the cannabis plant. Their nutrients may be more suited to growing Tulips and other decorative plants. That is a scary proposition for cannabis enthusiasts whose intent for the plant is consumption (smoking, vaping or eating). Fertilizers for some decorative plants can have poisonous or undesireable results if used for edible plants. Therefore, I would say that scant few cannabis growers might even know that Mills Nutrients exists. And until they begin demonstrating cannabis-specific testing results and cannabis-specific pride, I expect that most cannabis growers will be avoiding them. http://www.millsnutrients.com/retailers/

To find the following link, click on "Products" at the top of any forum page, then click on "Buy cannabis seeds", wait for the online store to load in. Then, click on "feminized seeds" in the left menu. Find the strain you are interested in, and click on it. The description usually includes its lineage. https://shop.greenhouseseeds.nl/money-maker-strain-hunters-seed-bank.html And found another from Leafy that confirms exactly the lineage described by GreenHouse Seeds: https://www.leafly.com/indica/money-maker Differences in phenotypes I haven't yet found published anywhere. So, if you do cultivate a lot of these originating from a bunch of seeds, then maybe YOU could publish a MoneyMaker Phenotype Report for us to read in this forum...

Welcome to Strain Hunters, Mac McDank. I think you will enjoy the yield of MoneyMaker. I was delighted by how well its flowers swelled and filled-out in its final weeks.

That appears to be a Calcium deficiency. Add a little Cal-Mag+Fe to next feeding.

LedCherryBerry, meet one of my heros. He may be your hero already, but if not, I am happy to introduce you to him:

While I was reading your post, I couldn't help but to question whether your exhaust ventilator might not be working. Then I finally read the last line, which confirmed my assumption. Exhaust ventilation would solve virtually all those problems, I think. Additionally, if you were to regulate the exhaust fan (on-off and/or fast-slow) based on input from sensors (ie., temperature, humidity, time-of-day, etc.), you could refine the results that the exhaust fan creates. Besides that, simply having an exhaust fan will improve conditions for your plants by providing them with a constant supply of ambient CO2 that seeps in from the outside. Without an exhaust fan, the CO2 inside the tent is quickly depleted by the plant, causing photosynthesis to simply stop until the next time the tent is opened.

Rour Reed Rearry Rooks Rood, Reggy. I had often wondered if Shaggy Rogers and Scooby-Doo had had anything to do with cannabis. Well, I found pictures that show that outside the studio, they certainly did. You need an Avatar, ShaggyGrower. Maybe look here if you are so inclined to remain with the theme of Shaggy and Scooby-Doo. LOL https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=shaggy+and+cannabis&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj5zdvxr6LXAhWF2RoKHdeLA-QQ7AkIRw&biw=1600&bih=751

No, no, no, my friend. I'm not gonna let you get away with saying shit like that about yourself. You're a wonderful person.

Thanks for the labelling. I shall pull up a chair in your grow-area and watch this journal. Regarding the double-posting: It happens from time-to-time, even to me too. I haven't figured out what the glitch is. But it's no problem; most of us are already accustomed to that happening. If @Jose.gh is listening, I haven't found a way to delete double-postings without deleting the entire thread, so I won't touch it. If you know how to delete a single post without deleting the entire thread, please enlighten me in Messages or in the Moderator Room. And by the way, I still cannot upload any .jpg's from my computer. I still find no upload buttons on my text- or edit-pages. By the way, @GreenKiwi, are you going to grow these indoor or outdoors. I know the weather where you are at this time of year will be excellent for an outdoor grow.

Intresting color-variation in that root-ball. (white roots / tan roots) (Even the soil appears to be of different colors) Any idea what caused that?

About us
Strain Hunters is a series of documentaries aimed at informing the general public about the quest for the preservation of the cannabis plant in the form of particularly vulnerable landraces originating in the poorest areas of the planet.
Cannabis, one of the most ancient plants known to man, used in every civilisation all over the world for medicinal and recreational purposes, is facing a very real threat of extinction. One day these plants could be helpful in developing better medications for the sick and the suffering. We feel it is our duty to preserve as many cannabis landraces in our genetic database, and by breeding them into other well-studied medicinal strains for the sole purpose of scientific research.
