Great looking setups, I can't wait to see more!

Great tip, I'm a bit amazed I didn't think of it but glad you did!

Looks like I have some replies to get to, I won't quote and just answer as it goes. The crap fan is just that, crap, i agree but its all my budget allows until my U shaped scrog harvest. I don't charge my patient setup costs so its been out of pocket for a while and the pockets are empty...

So, I got the 600w hood up and running with an MH, this is my first time vegging with MH and the temps are a bother, floating around 82-85 at the top of the canopy, 72-76 at the bottom. I used a cheap-o 8in in-line duct fan to vent the hood, intake and exhaust to outdoor air. If temps stay an...

Here's a great buy for all of us who have been looking for an affordable aero timer, under 20 bucks and works just like the 70 dollar presets http://www.ebay.com/itm/Repeat-Cycle-Timer-50-Sec-Intervals-Aero-Hydroponics-/220788938469?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item33680bd6e5

I really love that screen design, cant wait to see how it fills out.

Very nice. Keep us up to speed on your grow.

Checked out your setup, looks decent, you could jam more lights in there but i think that was covered (didn't read the whole thread). You are correct, a U shape wont help any as you have multiple light sources. If I was going to optimize this setup, and this is all based on what I can see...

This is true with one caveat; Research never ever hurts. Edit: Research never ever hurts unless the answers you get are wrong.

My pleasure to respond, any help I can give to fellow growers, I also love to learn and sometimes these questions make me do more research I hadn't already done. When to start screen training is kind of personal preference but here are a few guides I use before I begin. do you have enough...

Well, my face is red. You are right, the first "scrog" diagram I posted is in fact an LST, thats what I get for posting other peoples diagrams when I'm high. Unfortunatly I cannot edit it so I guess people will just have to deal with the fact that I'm a derp on page 1. The guy from budbook.org...

Hey hey, would love to chat, whats ur next setup gonna be? tell me more about fogponic, I have been curios for a while but would like to hear about it from some one who used it.

Thats another point to make, also, some people use fish tank ph up/down, that stuff is designed to slowly change ph over hours not seconds like general hydro or other brands.

VKs are pretty sensitive, I run even less, around 700 ppm and have tip burn as well. I don't mind a plant that is a "light eater" but man, you wanna just jam on em and you really have to use a soft hand. From what I have heard (this being my first VK grow) they will take more nutes in flower but...

"In my experience, whenever I had a long skinny branch that started way on the bottom of the stalk and went all the way up to through the screen, it never did very well. I kind of think its analagous to trying to move allot of water uphill through a long smal hose..it jst doesn't work so...

Thats a valid point to make, some of the highest yielding (and nicest looking) SCROGs I have seen use that method, removing all the smaller branches and only allowing the larger ones to flourish. I failed to add that your strain plays a big part in this as well, Indicas being big and bushy will...

Great question! Thats a real toughy. The answer to that comes down to a few factors, one being how you like to grow and that can be very subjective. By trimming smaller branches you will indeed strengthen the larger "colas", this also reduces your trimming (nobody likes trimming popcorn)...

All right, Posting my first "show and tell" style video. This is actually the second video I made but the first is having some trouble downloading, i will be posting it as soon as possible. I apologize the video is "Off site" If this video cannot be seen send me a private message please.

I unfortunately have tried that, the camera is a "Kodak Play Touch". Its focus feature is a "Smart focus" which means it only focuses on faces... ya I know, horrible. The truth is I should have returned it when I realized how much garbage it really was but I didn't and before I can post real...

Lol, no, the florescent lights take better pics than my magnetic ballast but as you can see the pics are still blurry. I'm really amazed that a 100 dollar camera made by Kodak has no focus feature, might be time to write a letter lol.
