    electricity help

    you are going to have to run you a subpanel out there from your main circuit breaker panel. Plan to size your wire for the wattage you want to use. If its just 1000 watt light and you live in most of America you will still need an AC unit or you will suffer heat issues. You can do away with out...

    bout to switch to 12/12.

    the best advice I can give is control your ph. Im not sure on any details been that you did not include any, I can simply tell you most newbies screw up by not controlling ph. This will cause lockout of nutrients. Then when you come back for help, almost everyone will attempt to convince you...

    help please

    they look good. let it dry out a bit and give both a good watering until a little runoff. collect runoff for both and check ph. Not knowing your soil mix or nutrients used I would make sure ph is good before attempting to remedy anything. most deficiencies are actually caused by lockouts due to...

    Maybe a dumb newbie question, but here goes....strains from seeds

    I havent seen anyone mention harvest time. harvesting early compared to late will also affect buzz. Until you learn how to grow good, I would stick with one strain at a time. Will be easier

    what are the pros and cons of auto plants

    The ONLY pro for auto strains is if you are growing outdoors and live in an area with not enough dark hours (Arctic circle regions). If this is not you, I could go on and on about the cons

    Seedling/cutting soil difficulties

    As in not PHing, if your water has an acceptable ph (you may have mentioned this already and i apologize if you did) you will be ok. My only warning is that if you have 7.0 ph water and you use it, overtime your soils ph could still slightly go up beyond that. People think lime will guarantee...

    mag def?

    P or K deficiencies only happen to master growers that know what they are doing (and still very rare), people using solely organics (those organic growers that like to complicate things and use 20+ different organic amendments all competing against each other), or people who constantly...

    mag def?

    humidity is borderline low IMO. I gave you detailed instructions already on how to measure ph runoff because I already anticipated you listening to everyone else. (I knew your soil was wet already) This is called a slurry test. Almost same as runoff if not maybe even better depending on...

    Seedling/cutting soil difficulties

    damn. No hydro nutrients. I suggest soil nutrients only or you will be getting yellowing weeks into flowering that will leave you like a dog chasing your tail around swearing up and down you have calmag deficiencies that can not be fixed. May I also suggest when feeding with nutrients feed using...

    Seedling/cutting soil difficulties

    forgot to mention... only use full hydro nutrients as long as their is no calcium source in it

    Seedling/cutting soil difficulties

    tell that to Florida. The reason why PPMs are so high their is due to all the calcium coming from the limestone aquifers. (went to utility to confirm this. they simply handed me their water analysis). Also this was one of the smallest counties in Florida (nothing but inbred hillbillies). and...

    Seedling/cutting soil difficulties

    Go with the plagron but you must use full hydro nutrients. Not soil or anything in between. make sure you have perlite. 300 ppm IMO may be ok as long as it is mostly micros (cal, mag, etc) No NPK will be needed and ive always found it to make seedlings grow a little slower and much darker (due...

    mag def?

    Ok grab a pen and paper. #1 I congratulate you on using Promix. IMO it is the best for soil less grows and has always come perfect out of the bale(unlike fuck farms). #2 Do not believe in the hype of Organic nutrients (organic foods you eat yes, but not organic nutrients). Myco is the only thing...

    Seedling/cutting soil difficulties

    I should add that I mentioned to him to get an R.O. filter before he flew my out there. However all the hydro shops were telling him no need for one. He has ruined his first grow (at least he can afford to) due to simple ignorance and because of too many people claiming to be "experts". Had he...

    Seedling/cutting soil difficulties

    OH I disagree. As in me making it harder, where did you read that from? I just got back from a trip to Florida where I was flown out to help a friend with his setup, He has attempted to grow with the same asinine advice you are giving. How can you know how good your water is without taking...

    Wanted to add if you do see a gas supplier for butane you want to ask for R-600 refrigerant

    making shatter and need some advice

    PLEASE NO BUTANE IN FREEZER./// The only thing I dont like about making butane cold is that it makes it more into a liquid state as it comes out which means that the pressure is much lower. IMO liquid state butane is good for making BHO using the soak system in a glass jar. If you keep it room...
