I'm planning for this fall up in NY. I grow veggies in the summer. I think grow lamps are annoying when there is good sunshine outside.
equipment list:
space heater
x3 in-line blower fans
plug-in thermostat
dampers
carbon filter
hepa filter / bug & dust filter
timer
=about $1000
the dampers...
a good start is a 4x4ft tent with a 600w hps lamp
now they have LEC lighting which is 315w or 630w, if you have the funds I see good results on photos
I wouldn't really recommend led; some people do but they have $900 for a light, it's more fudging around than growing if you ask me
the basement...
There is no way around this except pulling in fresh air from outside. Even a clean dry basement will leave it's smell all on your bud. nasty and a waste of time and money otherwise
roots clogged my RDWC pipes:wall:. Lost 75 gallons fresh nutes due to spill over:dunce:. planning damage control to keep roots contained with paint strainer mesh bags. This was outside, i think i'd be more upset over such a spill if it was inside. :leaf::leaf::leaf:
I have chopped for less important reasons. I see some orange hairs which is another indicator of ripeness along with trich color. I would chop if your risking being discovered because of smell. keep in mind drying will smell too and trying to hide it without a carbon filter it might give you...
I'm setting up for a grow in the fall, I ordered automatic dampers to keep the cold air out as I heat the fresh air in the tent. I'll use a finishing bulb for flower just because. 420w
comment on my comments to the comments:peace:
check when your area experiences 12light /12dark outside and see if you have 8+weeks before frost
i wouldn't put them in and out everyday it seems like too big a chore plus you'll bring bugs in, not sure if this is what you mean
size is OK, 36 hours dark I have only heard of at end before harvest
see what you have here is a domesticated Cannabaceae
use every micro-nutrient you can think of for good seed (not just the typical hydro microblend) aka good dirt
to answer what i think is your question.. plants will express genes of their environment quickly but not "evolve" or pass it down

If the water warms it becomes what is called hyperoxygenated this makes more oxygen available.
Cold water holds more oxygen, when it warms, it lets off oxygen eventually but remains hyperoxygenated for a time.
I'm looking for a book like the Jorge Cervantes marijuana grow bible but for aquaponics. Nice and simple, there's many books but if some of you already know. I don't know the fish stock density ratios ect.
Also any aquaculture pics would be awesome!
I'm looking to do strawberries and catfish...
opc here with with a public service announcement
opioid use can lead to trying statistically irreversible situations like heroin
I was on pain pills, thought about why people "like" heroin and contemplated growing poppies, but who hasn't
The only pH answer I've found that truly helps is RO water
Well water start pH 8
RO pH ends up 5.5
Add nutes pH 6-6.5
stays stable
I hear The RO comes out acidic because the acidic ions are smaller and don't filter out.
I can also see a pH doser working if using tap water because there is...
