Thank you very much, this is all perfect. I'll turn the lights up a bit before I hang them as I always tend to error on the lighter side with everything. Going to hold off a couple days before the flip, just top dressed the soil today so going to give that one more watering before i change it to...

Sounds good, I was hoping to just use what I have on hand at the moment. I used all I had left of some fish bone meal into my outdoor compost piles, so hopefully the crab will be a decent alternative for now. Do you think 2 tablespoons of the frass/crab and then maybe 3 of the kelp would be...

Hey, so I have four plants going in a a small 2x2.5ft tent and 3 gallon containers. They have been vegging for about 4 weeks now and look to be doing just fine. I want to flip to flower while they are still small, all 4 are roughly on their 5th or 6th nodes and seem healthy. The mix I'm using is...

So finally got around to setting up my two high light uv boards https://growlightsaustralia.com/product/double-high-light-and-heatsink-combo-350-450w-max/ . I got the 3000k- uv version with the individual heatsinks. I went with an hlg 185-48a driver since they will be in a 2x2.5ft tent. I...

plants are looking good man. sorry meant to keep you updated, but neglected my plants for a while. left them in solo cups for about a month, but just transplanted about ten days ago and things are going well now. trimmed them up yesterday and got two full gallon zip lock bags for now. plan on...

I do pretty much the same, but I like to sprinkle a very small amount of steel cut oats or a random amendment and watch the fungi form and break it down. Then I'll mix it all back in gently after a week or so. I'll do it maybe once a month or so as I don't use my castings too fast. I figure as...

Your post made me do a quick google search on chitinase enzymes. read through this link, http://www.biotech-ecolo.net/plant-resistance/chitinase.html not the most useful probably, but broke it down enough to make me realize I should do some more reading to get a better grasp on it. I just got...

Hey so i just started a few plants and have been refreshing some old recycled soil. Needed a little more water for the bin, so mixed equal parts (1/4 tsp) em1 and coconut water powder in a half gallon of water. I know typically molasses is used in conjunction with the em1, but are any of you...

Sorry if i missed it, but you guys have any thoughts on the nichia optisolis strips sold on cutter? I've been looking at them and think that would be something to try out for my first build. I have a couple cob fixtures from timber that I really like and never had any issues using them, but want...

nice, I will keep you updated with these. I have really only grown in soil so don't know much about other methods, but your lettuce looks good. I had some kales going in this soil a while back and they did pretty good. kept harvesting same plants, multiple plants in each pot though, for a couple...

hey, didnt really read through much of this, but just set my timber cob light up in a tiny 2x2x4 tent. Just mixed up and refreshed some of my soil and planted some kale seeds. I prefer eating kale over lettuce so went that route. I do have some lettuce seeds i think that I could get started if...

No expert here, but I've had a worm bin in my closet for the past couple years. No smell or bug problem whatsoever. Cost is minimal, just a few totes with some holes drilled in it and then just the price for some worms and peat/coco coir/compost as a media and its good to go pretty much. I have...

Hey, just got around refreshing some soil a few days ago. I combined a few old pots that had been sitting around with a bin of unused soil i had sitting outside for a while. Neither of them were in ideal conditions and definitely didn't maintain proper moisture levels to keep things thriving. I...

Hey @welight was wondering if it is possible to wire different strips together on the same driver? I've been looking at your optisolis strips, but was wondering if I could combine some of those strips with the samsung strips that you have as well. Is this possible or would it be better to stick...

I'm with you as well on the full scraps, I tried blending my scraps the first couple times I fed and never went back. Someone on a previous thread had me thinking of going back and trying it, but I have no issues with just tossing peels and things right on top. Occasionally I will bury/cover...

I'm no expert and have no books to recommend, so this post may be useless. i just try to keep em happy, I figure as long as they're active and reproducing then the quality of castings should be on point. diversity in feedings is the only thing I really try to accomplish. I try not to feed the...

I did this using the alfalfa/kelp/neem not too long ago, not with some mj, but with some kale plants I was growing. I treated those plants like shit and didn't have the light on a timer at all/poor watering habits with them and they grew super healthy and big. Also, the best tasting kale I've...

I have two from timber as well a 200w and a 400w, both far too big for the space I use them in, but the dimming capability comes in handy for that. Everything I've grown under them has done well and 0 complaints from me. I'm currently looking into more of the DIY yourself options to have more...

Enjoying following along on this thread. Thank you for the inspiration to tinker around and learn a bit. I got sent a free kind led L450 light like two years ago. Bought it through amazon when I first got growing, but kept reading reviews that night and cancelled it in the morning before it had...

So I had stored a lot of my dry amendments in totes and had left them outside for the past few months due to space limitations inside. Like a dummy, I didn't cover the totes in some tarp/plastic to help keep the water out. I just went out to mix up some new soils and found my problem. One of the...
