    organic fertilizer $130 per liter!!! should I buy??

    my gut went the same direction. But I was smoking serious panic weed when I read that :) it's pretty new so I will wait till it's tested more amongst real world situations or I can get it at my local store off the shelf. Funny story about tracking us by our buys. I know a grower who is...

    Humidity-1 Me-0

    Hi, get a humidistat you can plug in the wall and has a receptacle to plug in the humidifier. Then it won't ever be overkill.

    crystals

    No resinous benefit is seen from using mh for veg and hps for flower. The mh must be used late or all the way through flower. Though no scientific study has been published regarding the potency difference between those buds grown under mh or hps, many have observed a more resinous plant under mh...

    Yet Another Closet Grow

    if trying to achieve a flat 2' wide canopy the length of your light rail, the sun system 2 is better.

    Is my room correct?

    Take a sealed box. Mount an exhaust fan so it can only take air in through the box. Turn it on. Feel that flow? Now cut a hole the same diameter as the fans ports or larger on the box. Feel that flow? If your fan is quality, and designed to operate with pressure, all the air it needs will enter...

    Is my room correct?

    lolipop crop, it isn't a study. It is three, hypothetical scenarios, given to show differences between common setups. I wasn't referencing anything. You want total cfm? Do the math. It's all right there. Hypothetically. Not many people, myself included, have proper testing equipment to measure...

    Is my room correct?

    he does act like an ass when people disagree, but in this situation, he's also correct. For EVERY situation, a passive intake is the CORRECT way do ventilate. Ok maybe if you had flow meters on your ducts linked to. Computer which controlled fan speed, yada yada.... But again, this , um, "de...

    My highschool AG center

    one, don't steal. Whatever you grow with it will have a negative energy. Two, how old are you?

    PH and distilled water

    you can adjust the pH of a solution as rapidly as desired, though going from 1 to 14 instantly would produce a reaction to say the least. You should , IMO, adjust the pH of the growing media no faster than .1 per day. So in practice : mixed nutes comes to 4.6, needs to be 5.8, add enough pH...

    PH and distilled water

    I can't cite his source, but I know rapid pH shifts aren't good for any living organism. It is reccomended in the aquarium trade to adjust pH .05-.1 per day. It seems to me if the plants are alive, they can wait four more days of slow change, and IMO,itI is preferable for the roots to not go...

    Any here rented a shop and grew in it?

    thanks for the welcome. And I didn't go to the hospital. I know how to immobilize a foot and have an incredible threshold for pain. :) I hate hospitals. But that bone hurt, and all I had was racy sativas to smoke as I'd given up my heavies to my brother for his bad back. Now we are a family or...

    how can i adjust my soil's ph?

    many probe style meters aren't made for constant immersion in soil. Something about corrosion of the metals iirc. This steady incline of the readout may be accurate or misleading. Check your directions and see what the manufacturer reccomends. I know on mine, storing clean and dry, and lightly...

    Growing 3 plants worth it?

    Your math is correct. I live about as far from CA as possible and haven't put a plant in sunlight in fifteen years (sadly). But 5.3 oz. OR MORE from a properly trained and grown plant indoors is entirely possible. In a seven-ten gallon pot, with 45-60 days of veg time, each plant can be trained...

    Growing 3 plants worth it?

    so your yield was roughly, 19g/plant. On a first time cfl grow, that's not horrible. How many watts did you use? Did you lst or scrog? Is your strain a proven indoor yielder? What were the environmental conditions that could have improved? A lb. or more can come from three plants under proper...

    What would you do??

    well, the best is subjective. From a geometry standpoint, those cooltubes offer significant disadvantages over a full size, flow-through reflector. The models of cooltube with an EXTERNALY mounted reflector, are much better than the one pictured above. Depnding on the area you are trying to...

    Any here rented a shop and grew in it?

    LOL, sorry. In doing my attic ducting, I had same issue. Noone to help. I climbed up ladder into attic and kicked ladder away from the house. Sat in 115 degree attic foe two hours hoping a neighoor would come home. I had left my cell inside, as with it in my pocket, I couldn't fit in attic door...

    anyone who has upgraded from 250 to 400 hps

    In my experience, with the same ventilation, 250 = 75 in room, 78 at plant level, 400 = 78.5 in room, 83 at plant. 72 cubic feet, vortex 6" 450ish cfm. 1/3 diverted to pulling from topvent on reflector. This is not a "flow through" or "cool tube" type, and has no bottom glass. The...

    Just harvested 3 small plants (pics)

    I don't know shitty is for him, but most of my carribean purchases were by size. For the record, I never felt ripped off. In Denmark, my hookup sold hash by size, and it always seemed a fair bit for the money. In most places though, I'd opt for the weight.

    If you think you know so much

    Did you try yelling at it? " grow some roots bitch!" and " heal you fuck!" always seem to kick my garden in to overdrive. Or did you only apply that method here? To better serve your demands, knowing what specific problem you are trying to solve would be advantageous to any prospective...

    scrog questions

    Depending on how fast your strain veg's, six weeks may be too long. I know of a similar grow, 2x4/400w scrog, and three clones in seven gallon pots over took screen in less than four. Once switched to 12/12 the stretch had no where to go but up. So in short, know your strain, keep them...
