    Can you transplant after they start to flower?

    I'm sure what you mean by "in veg" since they have flowers starting. I thought once they start flowering they are in flowering. Can you elaborate more on what you're saying please? I sounds like you might be stating they are kinda still in veg? Thanks for your input!

    Can you transplant after they start to flower?

    Sorry, here are the pics. I wanted to put these in a 1 or 2 gallon bucket but they have just started the early stages of flower. My mistake as I didn't understand the caveats of autos better..I thought they get a little bigger by now and I'd simple replant.

    Can you transplant after they start to flower?

    I bought a few autos, should have read a little more first. It seems like the recommended approach is to germinate in the container you intend on finishing in. I didn't do this and germinated in solo cups where they have been for about five weeks or so. I was planning on moving them into a new...

    Blaze & Daze

    So, spinosad is systemic? I'm curious how long it takes after harvest for this to work it's way out so you're not smoking spinosad. It's banned here where I'm at for commerical grows due to safety concerns...and they do test for it in the lab.

    Recommendation: Cheap PPFD meter?

    Cool, I was just wondering how durable it was; how long have you had it? The reviews on Amazon seem to suggest it's decent.

    Recommendation: Cheap PPFD meter?

    How's that meter working for you, for $85 it's not bad if it works and is durable? I wonder how well it matches up to a potobio that people really seem to like. Anyways, I'm also looking at the uni-t and pairing it up with my android phone using the ppfd app. Right now I just have 3500k leds...

    Sulfamic acid as ph down?

    That's why you dilute it..outside in the open air. It's not battery acid ..it's sulfuric acid that also happens to be in batteries. Curious what was your friend doing, was he venting a battery into a closed space?

    Sulfamic acid as ph down?

    I tried it straight out of the jug and diluted..I prefer the 33% as it only took a drop or three. Also, I got it on my fingers a few times ...and well nothing but a little dryness. The 98% I would dilute!

    Sulfamic acid as ph down?

    Why pay the man ridiculous prices for something so simple to make? Some products actually do , or used to, use sulfuric acid for ph control. It's also a very powerful acid and easier to lower the ph than using the orange stuff..which takes less product and time. I have experience with sulfuric...

    Sulfamic acid as ph down?

    You're the second person that said this, another forum, so it looks like it's not such a good solution. I guess the sulfuric acid is the route I will go. I found a 98% solution that I'm probably going to buy vs the 33% battery refill pack at the autozone. There's been some concern with it having...

    How to cleanly connect lots of strips to the driver?

    I've got 18 strips all at 48V to run those in series would be some serious voltage? I could break them down into a series of series...lol. My last light was in series but topped out at 175V. It was so easy, I asked about the best way to build lights and the answer came back with a resounding...

    How to cleanly connect lots of strips to the driver?

    So, when you have a lot of strips to connect back to the driver what's the best approach for this? Instead of a big ass wad of wire with wire nuts how about a termination block then from the block to the driver. Anybody have any examples of a clean and safe install?

    A lot of people use heat sinks with strips but a lot don't either when they run them at or lower than <50% total power.

    Cob vs Strips

    I've made my own strip light before with bridgelux. I'm curious though what's the deal with cobs, I used to be interested in them until I found out how easy strips were but seems like folks still build cobs. What's the pros and cons between the two, how do they compare for those that have had both?

    What led strips to consider in 2024?

    "Study post #72, a 1 volt increase nearly doubles the current" It sounded to me you we're describing a runaway, which is why I asked for an expanded explanation. Anyways, thanks for your input!
