Silly me followed some advice to run lights at night. I've been running them from about 6 pm till about 6 am. This poses a problem because I'm up all day and I want to look at my plants but I cant. Any suggestions. -My concern is to keep the temps down in the grow room...the air...

I planted a bunch of clones for my first grow. After 10 days 8 of them are like little trees--they have a thick stalk coming out of the soil and then start branching off. This is what I envision they should look like. I have 1, that I named "Wicked", that is growing so healthy; however it...

I have a grow started last week from clones. I want to take new clones before I flip the lights to 12/12. Can I keep the clones small and alive the 70 days it takes to flower? How do I do this. I am going to be buying a large shelf table and mounting florescent lights every 24"...is that...

From what I've read, I don't think lowryders make it to much more than 12-18"...however some hybrids like AK-47 Auto might make 32-36". I am doing a standard grow on Pineapple Express and Skywalker right now. I'm attracted to the autos, not because they are the most desirable buds, but because...

How do you like your auto grow. You said its your second grow, first auto. I am growing 12 regular plants under a 600 hps in a tent. As soon as frost is done, I plan on buying a pack of Lowryder 2 for the back yard. I hope to isolate some male pollen to generate some seeds. I've heard I can...

Dude, that is awesome. I want to set up a vegging/cloning shelf just like you! I just got some good ideas. Thanks!

Thanks Max...that's what I'm going to do--wait and see. I just feel bad that I might have man handled them too much when planting or something.

I planted 12 rooted clones on Sunday--my first grow. I am growing in Coco Coir. The 600 w HPS light is positioned about 3.5 feet from the plants, and I am moving it down a little each day. Here's the thing: It is Friday now. 6 of them have totally taken off--they are beautiful. 3 of them...

You know, I hadn't even thought of different places on the plant, nor did I really consider the possibility of different mothers. I'm also thinking that some of the clones might have been further along in root development. It was just weird...In only 4 days I have some plants that are really...

I'm a new grower. On Sunday I started off with 5 pineapple express and 7 skywalker clones. Here is the funny thing. I am assuming that these clones come from 2 mommies. Therefore I also am assuming that each strain's clones will behave similarly. Now it is day 4. Some of the clones of...

That's good to know...my humidity has stayed from 23-35% humidity for the 4 days I've had things running. I'm glad soil mold (or whatever it is) is benign. I am trying to find out about adding some Hydrogen peroxide once in a while. If you or someone knows how much to add per 5 gal water...

I didn't get out my camera to take pics of the shit growing in my new grow. I started 12 plants in Coco Coir under a tent. All I added was 1/4 strength Nutrients to fortify the Coco per the instructions on the bag. Fast forward 4 days and now I'm seeing these white wispy spiderwebs on the...

I personally take a healthy dose of Dutch Masters Reverse every day...I'm 100% positive I'm not a hermaphrodite--so it definitely works. All kidding aside, thank you for the tip....I'll go and look for it. One more thing, I have it very very dark in my room...I'm a little bit of an obsessive...

I am getting clones today. I've already loaded 10 quart pots with a little perlite and coco. I know I'm supposed to add water to the pots to get them ready. -Do I just add water? -Do I add water plus a little diluted nutrients -What should the PH always be for a coco grow? I thought I...

Thanks again 4tatude. Everything is set up and I officially start tomorrow with the arrival of my clones. I will be "flipping the switch" as you say.

For 1700 dollars I'm including clones, nutrients, 16 10L pots, coco, 6" carbon filter, 6" exhaust fan" 600w HPS, reflector, ballast, 4' x 4' x 6.5' grow tent, 3-5 gallon water jugs, water pump, thermometer. Includes $200 I spent on Installation because it took me an another guy several hours to...

@4tatude: Hey man thanks for the kind words. This is not a one time thing so I'm going to learn as I go and strive to do better with each cycle. I'm trying a beginner Coco Coir and perlite set up--basically poor man's hydro. The funny thing is I've already spent over $1700, I'm not sure why...

I was hoping to grow 9 or 10 small plants...the grow store guy told me that with 16 square feet on the floor and each pot taking up 1 square foot that I can easily do 3 rows of 3...I was going to grow the 10th plant to replace one if it wasn't working out. This is all new territory. Maybe I...

This is awesome guys. I was really upset over this. Now I feel much better. I'm a "newbie" and I want everything as perfect as I can make it. I bet its like when you are raising your first child, you are a lot more strict and worried, but subsequent children aren't worried about so much and...

I bought a grow tent and set everything up. It leaks small amounts of light. I've tried to tape everything up, but there is still small amounts of light. It is still so dark that I can't see my hands in front of my face. Its darker than moon light and star light and lights from back yard...
