    name that molecule thread;)

    I dont get the clues. Must be a psychadelic as that structure is very very close to psilocybin!

    name that molecule thread;)

    That would be a metabolite of shrooms but not psilocybin itself as it is dephosphorylated... kinda not fair to post a metabolite...

    nute burn or chlorine?

    This is interesting. I was reading about water hardness a couple of weeks back. You're quoting 120ppm as a hard water cutoff level... but that actually refers to the level of calcium carbonate alone (mg/L). Tap water usually has a good amount of sodium, potassium and other ions in it too; the...

    nute burn or chlorine?

    No way that's too much. That's soft water and you *might* need to add calmag (if you get deficiencies). Have a read of this: http://www.canna-uk.com/about-calmag-agent Edit: I should also add that might explain why you're getting some burn. Someone else might have 400ppm water and add 200ppm...

    nute burn or chlorine?

    Chill. The bottle doses are usually too strong. 1.2 EC is about right. You've not overcooked it badly. Maybe the strain is a light feeder. Just back off to 1.0 for a while. If you've already made up 55 gal of nutes try to grab 10% with a bucket and replace with water. Then pH as appropriate...

    New Loft Grow Room - Input Appreciated

    Autopot system just needs the reservoir filling. The 6 plants drink about 3L per day max so I just add 20L per week to keep it ticking over. Takes literally 10 mins to mix and top up. I also supercrop anything that's getting too close to the lights. For 6 plants it takes less than 20 mins per...

    New Loft Grow Room - Input Appreciated

    Done my weekly veg+mum maintenance tonight. Mums desperate for me to take some clones! :D They'll have to last until after next weekend. That'll give them 14 days to root before I get round 3 planted up (crosses fingers). Also caught that mozzie that I posted a photo of a while back. Just 1...

    How much do you think it will wield

    Yeah they are. I'd guess more like 450g myself.

    Anyone us a LightingPassport spectrometer?

    Very suspicious post. "you guys should be looking to measure..." "would you guys 'standardize' on some form..." "units are pricey at ~$1500 but they are quite competitively priced for the market" "If you are doing a lot of building it is probably worthwhile to get" Are all the sort of thing a...

    Day 38 since flip and things are plodding along. Purple Afghan Kush is staring to go a little purple... who'd have thought? Closeup of PAK Also the veg room is starting to get a little crowded :o I've done some topping and LST but they're ready for the flip already! (5 weeks since...

    Can I use my ac water?

    It's just condensed water from the air. It'll be close to distilled water. Fine for growing (but you need to also add calmag).

    Boss LED?

    It runs at 180-200w. You can expect it to perform like a 250w HPS. The 1000w claim is based on the fact they are using 10w LEDs but they're running them around 2w each. You can veg and flower with one. But as I said your light will be equivalent to a 250w HPS.

    Mature Plant 'random' death

    I don't think it's the end of the world. I've seen quite a few reports of single plants dieing like this but never seen more than a couple of plants taken out. There are a lot more devastating pathogens you could be dealing with.

    New Spectrum King SK600

    Their specs are quite misleading. On the 440w model they quote PAR output to be "1950 umol*". If you look closely the * means with 90 degree reflector. And if you check the fancy coloured charts it looks like they're testing at about 12 inches (you can't be certain). Well if you do the math a 90...
