Here come the haters! lol. I am a huge fan of the OG LED's that were blurple. Shit, Blackdog and Optic still use that recipe with a mix of white and they are killer lights. Blackdog did their grow-along series with the Phytomax 2 in a 3x3 tent and pulled two and a half pounds of Burmese Kush...
Subcool was my dude. (If you know, you know.) Nugbuggets will always be remembered by me for being the most generous dude right here on RIU when I first started growing. He was always helpful to us noobs and didn't trash us because we messed something up in our grows. We have a lot of people...
Odd man out here. I can't tell from looking at them from so far away. I can usually tell what's up by week two or three after seedlings are done being seedlings. What I can say is, for future reference, ice them down if you're playing with reg seeds. I've got dozens of reg grows, if not hundreds...
Older thread, IK. Anyhoo, to answer the simple part of the equation, in a large setup, the old checkered pattern was the go to @ 1 to 1 ratio every other light. To dip into what everyone else says and in agreement. CMH kills either of them and is cheaper to pull off in a way but DE thousy's are...
I'm with you on the mint-green. We've been using green light to work in our grow rooms during the plants' night periods for years so it's not aligning in my head as to how green light is all-of-a-sudden useful to photosynthesis now that Samsung has dropped a new LM-Series chip. I understand that...
I would LOVE to build my own vertical style lights but I have no idea where to get standalone diodes, (just the chips, not the mounted turds that rapid LED sells at an inflated price) nor do I have any idea where to get the PCB's. I can solder small diodes with no issues and understand the...
That's why I didn't bite on preorder. I knew as soon as they started running the preorder out, they were gonna jack the price. They know that a lot of us are OCD and it would drive us crazy to run multiple types of lights therefore we order what we can afford in the preorder at the supposed...
Thank You. I have grown so weary of places calling themselves breeders becasue they took someone else's female and Gave it the STS or Colloidal Silver trament to make them throw some pollen, then snap a few pics of the absolute nicest expressing plant in the garden, even though 90 percent of the...
Definitely not. It's their attempt at recreating it in the early 2000's. It's sweet smelling, rather than acrid. I've been through a few hundred of their Skunk #1 seeds hunting a decade ago when I was a bit of a noob thinking that it HAD to be it and it was just a certain phenotype I just needed...
I'm working on this as we speak. I have a acrap ton of seeds that were frozen in 1989 an stayed in the deep freezer, in film canisters packed 100 to a canister with cotton wadding, taped with electrical tape and 5 canisters to each foodsaver bag. Grandpa was a farmer and not only did he enjoy...
Old thread But I am curious as to if this actually worked. I have a bunch of the discontinued Gavita Pro DE's and also a bunch of the nano chill DE's that are new as well. I've never ran HPS before but I did run a handful of the grower's choice DE CMH until they all eventually crapped out. I...
