well i got short on perlite so i went to walmart and picked up a small bag perlite as i was lazy and didnt want to drive to homedepot as it further. proceeded to take clones as i have done hundreds of times. planted them in their new mix with perlite. 2 weeks later dead clones showing the claw then drying up and dying. started another batch while scratching my head as my method of cloning is about foolproof or so i thought. 2 weeks later dead clones. went and checked everything temps,ph ect. nothing wrong. went to do 3rd run of clones and while pouring out miracle grow shit perlite noticed it has nutes. took another batch clones no miracle grow shit perlite. . SUCCESS like healthy happy sour bubble clones. moral of story read all labels dont get cocky and assume anything. hopefully this might help a few

I did basicly the same thing when i bought my first bale of promix . i thought it was completely void of nutes .... transplanted some clones into a fresh mix & fed with a maxibloom feed . Dohhhh!!! then wondered why they clawed & turned dark green on me . Oh well live & learn .
they did turn out great for me after i got them flushed & fed with some PH'd water ...thank god & the guys here @ ICmag .



growem green & stay safe ...Dans

Didn't thoroughly wash my arms and hands after directly leaving a grow room.

Got pulled over for speeding.

Sat in handcuffs, while my car was torn apart, in search of weed that was not there.

on my first indoor grow when I was about 14 ...the plants were almost done...I wanted to add CO2 to "make the buds huge" so I sprayed all my plants with a fire extinguisher...turned out to be a dry chemical extinguisher and I tossed the whole grow. lesson learned.

I had this brand new 1k.....first Greenair cooled hood. I mounted 2 2x4s on the ceiling and placed hooks in them to hang the light from. Placed all my plants underneath and then stood back and admired my work. After all that hard work went to get a beer. While drinking that beer heard this loud crash.......went back to see what the hell it was......my light had fallen an all those nice plants and broken the glass in the lamp. When I remounted the light I made SURE the 2x4´s were screwed into a ceiling joist the next time. The screws were just in the drywall and not in wood.........all the nice plants directly under the light were finished. lol

Relied on an Odorsok for odor control in an apartment grow. My upstairs neighbor was literally out back looking for the dead skunk.

Well my first grow was vertical bare bulb, i learned the hard way to never go in the room with the bulbs on, more importantly unprotected. I tripped over my god damn fan cord while i was wearing only a wifebeater and shorts and 3 inches of my tricep sizzled off in a split second, literally everyone who saw the result was like WTF HAPPEN?? Now i have a nice visible 3 inch scar that i have to bull shit about whenever anybody asks... Oh and another time I was hammered and went in to check on my babies, i stumbled a little and holy fuck, my cheek hit the 1000 watter.. THANK GOD that single light was off because my ballast died, the rest of them were on.. i'd be mo fuckin scar face for life.

in my first cabinet grow, my fans were easily accessible. that also meant easy to put things into such as my fingers and my plants once or twice. they were fine, though, just lost a little bit of some leaves, haha. my fingers had some decent cuts on them and when i told people i accidentally put my hand into a fan, no one really asked questions...now my fans have grates over them so that this doesn't happen -_-
