    NOTICED A MYTH RUNNIN AROUND GROW FORUMS whether to use FLAT OR SEMI-GLOSS paint

    Blink, You're pretty close. White is reflective, gloss or flat. Titanium white being the most reflective. The difference between Gloss and flat is the QUALITY of light. Flat reflects a "soft" diffuse light where Gloss reflects a harsher light that could have "hot spots" where any light planes...

    Getting cought

    You are a fortunate man! Most folks I know aint so lucky. It has to be an "old World" thing. (No offense) American society has pretty much lost it's sense of family/brotherhood values. We have, for the most part, become a "Fuck you, whats in it for me?" culture these days. Nobody seems to want...

    Lighting question

    Right now, I have my one remaining plant under 2 400w HPS lights. She's about 3 or 4 weeks from harvest. Would adding another 400w MH do anything to increase the yield?

    How close it too close for the tops of plants 400 HPS

    I dont know what the humbolt thing is, but I had the same problem. I didn't "top", and let it grow unchecked. I definately got a feel for how tall they'll get after switching to 12/12. You might have to resort to this: This girl was trying to go thru the reflector. You'd think that it...

    Every person who buys seeds online read please

    Probably not, but it sure doesn't help. I know that if my seeds got busted right after someone posted (leaked) how they were shipped, I'd be PISSED OFF!!! Dude, There are NO guarantees 100% in life. (At least none that I have found) ANYTIME we choose to ignore or break a law we have to...

    Toxic Gases?!

    All plastics emit some fumes. It's called "outgassing", and it's the leftover solvents that didn't quite evaporate during the manufacturing process. Ever notice that "Distinctive" smell when you open a new shower curtain, or similar product? The higher the temperature, the more the product will...

    Almost there! (Unbelievable)

    I kinda got forced into "LST". The thing started growing up inside my reflector. (Big aluminum parabolic) So I bent her over, then brought the top back up straight. I kinda tied all the buds & branches so that they weren't covered and recieved max amount of light. Considering how well it's...

    Where did u buy ur HPS?

    Depends on how rescourceful u r. I called around and found a contractor who was demolishing an old manufacturing plant/warehouse. I bought 6 MH, and 6 HPS all 400w. If you can find such a place, most all interior lighting is going to be MH, and exterior lighting will be HPS. I paid $40 US each...

    How close it too close for the tops of plants 400 HPS

    I have one under 2 400w HPS. The lights are about 12-14 inches from the top of the plant. I have real good a/c and fans. I was told to hold your hand over the tops. If it's uncomfortable, it's too close. Are you growing in a cabinet/box/closet, or in a room?

    Already gearing up!!! I know where I screwed up, Bonz gave me a couple of soil mix formulas that I'm going to try out, and I have a better understanding of plant physiology, and nutrients & watering. I have a bunch of seeds left from the same strain as this last. I am germing 25 of them, hoping...

    Almost there! (Unbelievable)

    Not a problem guy! Thats the best laugh I've had in a good while. I actually sprayed my laptop with coffee when I read it!! I showed it to her too. Needless to say she didn't find it NEARLY as hilarious as I did, but she knows that she'll be the "creepy ass dude" for a good little while. Thanx...

    Dude, you don't know the half of how fucked up this grow was. I did EVERYTHING wrong!! Yeah, to say I'm paranoid is an UNDERSTATEMENT!!! If it weren't for Bonz and a couple others I'm sure I'd have been left with nothing. You da Bomb, Bonz!!!

    Hey Bonz, thanx. I'll leave them in the dark for 72. OMFG!!!! THATS TOO FUNNY!!! That "creepy ass dude" is my daughter!!!! (Seriously!!) She's taking a pic with her camera phone. She's on her way over as I type. I can't WAIT to show her this thread!!!!! That thud and banging you heard was...

    sooo funny cop overdoses on weed.

    I read that story. The fuckin' lowlife was bustin' folks, and keeping the dope. He admitted to baking it into brownies that he and his wife ate. Fucking prick SHOULD have died. I can respect a cop, but not a bad cop. (and I've yet to find a good one) And he didn't "lose" his job, he was...

    Hmmmmm.......is it possible?

    Thanx. THATS what I'm talking about, and the kind of info I was lookin for. Farmer #1, my dope girl and I have had TOO many females to be coincidence. (In fact, everyone I know who has grown these seeds I'm growing now has had females.) I'd love to see that excerpt from "the Bible". Now I...
