    Fridge Grow 175w MH with CFLs

    Thanks for the kind words! Im very pleased with how the filter came out, and how SUPER easy it was to make. Probably $30 or less in materials, vs. $300 from CAN. As far as my litttle midget DRs are concerned, they were kept in 16oz party cups for the first month of their life and were getting...

    150w HPS Mini Fridge {6x Diesel Ryder AF & 6x Apollo11/Green Giant}

    Well like I said it has 2 different speeds, 100CFM and 135CFM. I plugged it in on both and the 100CFM is no louder than a computer fan, its amazing. The 135CFM setting is probably twice as loud, but if it was inside your cab I think it would be virtually silent. Mine will be installed outside...

    Well, I cant say whether or not its a lowryder as I havent grown that strain myself. I have seen AF strains get that tall before. For 60+ days though your plants should have MUCH denser buds if they are indeed an AF strain. It almost looks to me like a reg strain would a 60 days. Also, the...

    sprayed weed

    First off, know this: There is no "they" when it comes to weed. Buying weed is not like buying something from walmart. One persons definition of "sprayed" will always be different than others. If a dealer buys a pound of grass, sits on it for too long and it drys out, he will sometimes...

    Depends on how early & how many times you pollinate. Also depends on the size of the plant. I have been told that if you pollinate once, and do it early, that you should end up with an easy 50+ seeds per plant. I could see a larger plant putting out 100+ seeds. I can easily see 30 or more on...

    Fridge Grow 175w MH with CFLs

    Thought I would toss up a couple recent pics of my little pollinated Diesel Ryder AF ladies, Carmen & Regina. They are still just the shortest little gals, but man are they getting FAT. I put an IBC root beer bottle between them for a size reference. Carmen on the left, Regina on the right...

    First CFL Grow - Help appreciated

    Man I so look forward to your picture posts every time lol. I especially like picture 11 where you can see your girls feet :P Reminds me of my wife, always wearing silly socks & always up in the plant action, she cant get enough. Of course, she just looks and plays, if I could actually get...

    Trimming Fan leaves in Veg?

    From what Ive read on growing plants in general is that if its young & green, you dont cut it. If a part of the plant is green then that means it is properly turning sunlight into energy, if it is turning yellow & brown it is not. Cutting of a green fan leaf can cause a lot of stress to the...

    150w HPS Mini Fridge {6x Diesel Ryder AF & 6x Apollo11/Green Giant}

    OK so I found some 4" round darkroom louvers that are very affordable. I have never messed with these darkroom louvers and was wondering if anyone has? Do they restrict airflow much, or at all? Will I need more than two 4" intake holes using these? At just under $11 each I think they...

    150w HPS Mini Fridge {6x Diesel Ryder AF & 6x Apollo11/Green Giant}

    Yeah I messed around with every possible combination of rearranging the light & plants and it was near impossible to get light on all sides of the 2 girls AND cram 12 party cups in there. I hoped that I would be putting the 12 seedlings in the mini fridge this weekend but it was a pretty slow...

    Fridge Grow 175w MH with CFLs

    Yep, I just went by the parts list in the DIY. I got everything but the pillow & Carbon at Home DePot. Like I said I was unable to find metal 4" caps but the 4" PVC ones worked ok. You MUST have the right size metal 6" caps though to keep the outter core nice & snug. The pillow was $3 at...

    Fridge Grow 175w MH with CFLs

    Thanks for the compliments!! I got the batting out of a $3 pillow from walmart. The ideal batting to use is the stuff you get from a hobby store as its a bit easier to work with, but the batting in the pillow worked just fine. Also, if you have an old stuffed animal laying around that needs...

    150w HPS Mini Fridge {6x Diesel Ryder AF & 6x Apollo11/Green Giant}

    Thanks for the kind words Tank. And yeah man the AFs are so fun. ESPECIALLY if you like growing outdoors. They stay small, harvest about a month sooner & if the temps are right it doesnt matter how much light they get. Im pretty sure that when I harvest my little Carmen, she will still be...

    Noob with sick plant, how about some help please? (pics attached)

    Yeah I think I have the same pots as you, I just transplanted into them today. If so, its gonna be difficult for ya because youre supposed to pop the tabs out from the inside of the pot to release the bottom tray. For sure if you cant find anything better, the organic MG will do ok. If you...

    1.5 months is possible, but with most strains they are ready to harvest at 8-10 weeks. Diesel Ryders have an 8-9 week life cycle from seed to harvest. Also, if you pollinate do so as SOON as possible then throw the male(s) away. If you wait too long the plant will die before the seeds can...

    Fridge Grow 175w MH with CFLs

    Well, the title says it all. Apparently Beatrice (or should I say Brutus) was trying to pull a fast one on me. He started showing balls probably 4-5 days after the rest of the males. I had not seen any white hairs but I also didn't see the slightest sign of pollen sacs until yesterday so I...

    OK so I actually measure my Diesel Ryders and I couldn't stop laughing for 20minutes. I knew they were short but DAMN.....The shortest (Carmen) is 5.5" and her sister Regina is a mere 6.75" HAHA!! Here are some pictures of the two of them with my 2 bagseed girls. The Diesel Ryders are 3 days...
