    Fasciation, Who has had it?

    So last year I had a plant do this. It was from a bag seed. Nothing special. The plant got to be 2 feet tall and the main stem was 1 inch wide and 1/8 inch thick. Looked it up and thought it was weird. Wiki says it is rare. This was my first run with cmh lights. I thought it may be from the...

    Where's those fish bone roots?

    2 people can do the exact same thing with different results. Not all tap water is the same. I think being sterile is the most important thing of all.

    Where's those fish bone roots?

    I have always used the gel for rooting. The swelling I get is hit or miss. But when I do get it, they take longer to root. My last 2 batches of clones have had zero swelling. Rooted ultra fast. Just an observation...

    Where's those fish bone roots?

    Agree. They might not peel if they are small. My last test batch the cuttings were made 8 inches tall. With just 3 inches of it below the foam inserts. They were very woody. Still rooted very quickly...

    Where's those fish bone roots?

    Looks like the stalk swelled too. Did it swell before the roots appeared? I mentioned that in the other thread. I be live that to be something that is not good. Even tho some still swell, most dont.

    Where's those fish bone roots?

    Hey all! Ya, scraping does no good for me. Never has. The last time I cloned I pulled the nodes off and removed the strings complely, the roots exploded out the side. I was amazed! The pics are in another thread of cloning problems.

    weld aluminium without a welder! Making plans for a alu based grow light to support heavy weigts.

    Your right there! I use them too. Hard to use on thin sheet. Also don't let it drip on you while using..... I've got a sweet scar tho!

    weld aluminium without a welder! Making plans for a alu based grow light to support heavy weigts.

    Ah, ok. I see your problem. Might I suggest another option. In the auto world that is panel bonding adhesive. Most new cars the body panels are glued together. That glue is forever. It is the strongest stuff known to man. The braces can be glued to your sheet and would hold up a truck! Btw, it...

    You talking about aluminum brazing rods? They don't require flux. They do require a mapp gas torch however. Also check rivits... They can attach to any metal or plastic!..... Sorry, just had to be a little sarcastic

    DIY Tumble Trimmer

    That removes leaves? I built something similar for washing my rock. (Ebb and flow, with rock similar to hydrotron. I have 42 gallons of rock. Also tired of washing it!) I also built a tumbler for removing kief from trim. That drum is wrapped with 250 micron silk screen.

    More light more food?

    Very interesting? I was just thinking of that myself. I changed lights this year to cmh. I fed what seamed like a normal amount. There was a lot of other differences too, but I've had a hard time not killing my plants. So I upped the nutes almost double. Now I'm measuring 2 INCHES of growth a...

    Cloning issues

    Notice how the roots exploded out the side where the little branch was pulled down? I've never made roots like this before. I took 2 batches of clones, 1 after the other, just to check if they root in the same amount of time and they did. Those clones are 12 days from cut today.

    Cloning issues

    Yeah, they all look great! Its easy to diy a cloner. Anybody hear of the fogger style? I had some foggers hooked to mine, but did not use em this time. I did not notice a difference.
