Ok so I have been growing for a little over a year now and have had many ups and many downs. So I have a few questions for some of you people out there. Please let me know if you have any insight in these area's.....

1st-Is rain water ok for cannabis plants? I have been using normal water from the facuet that sits out for about 2 days to water my plants, I get the chlorine out but still dont get the floride out wich I am totally against.

2nd- I am 3 weeks into flower and a few of my plants look as if they are selfing, I have had this happen before on my last grow with about all my plants. Not a whole lot of seeds but a few. Any one know why plants would be putting of a few nanners. Probably 1-2 per plant never more.

3rd- The bottom leaves of my plants are dieing off. Kind of looks like there falling off. I use all organics from soil to nutes and it seems like it is worse on some plants than others.

Anything will help with this little stuff.

1. yes rain is perfect as long as it isn't acid rain. Check the ph.

2. Nanners usually come from light leaks or stress (high temps).

3. Hard to say with filling out the infirmary form and seeing pix, but low nitrogen cause lower leaves to yellow and die of. Lack of light will also cause this as the canopy above blocks out the light. Every strain is different in it's needs.

Ya, if the nanners are only very few you will only have a few seeds and the good thin is they probably are female. They could be nanner free, the same as mom or worse, but it's worth a try. I wouldn't let it bother you.

Rain water is fine. If your plants outside look okay, I'd say yup, your good to go.

If you have leaves yellowing and falling off this is usually normal during bud. Its either from low nitrogen or low light.

I think I repeated everything HeadyPete just said - sorry, just noticed now. Good luck!

Rain water is the best to use if you can get a relable regular clean supply.

selfing seems to happen when plants are stressed. Too hot?cold not enough water also after 10 weeks some strain will pollinate combine all 3 you have seeds>
