    What to expect from an indoor CFL grow ??

    Well the hydro finally came. I transplanted some newer seedlings but I didn't wash the roots and put them in rockwool. Is that bad? I just seem to loose plants hen I mess with roots and they looked so healthy I didn't want to screw up. A couple are in spagnum and the rest are in as small a ball...

    If you DON'T think CO2 concentrations excellerate growth, watch this.

    I saw that and went right to the store and got some yeast n sygar. Put it in a 5 gallon "office" cooler jug, popped a small hole with a hypo needle, put a balloon over the top and ran tubing from the hypo to a bubbler. About 1 bubble per second (unless I shake it then it goes crazy). If the...

    If you DON'T think CO2 concentrations excellerate growth, watch this.

    If you don't have time to read it all just watch the time lapse video of 2 plants in different CO2 concentrations. It's almost unbelievable. http://www.co2science.org/

    Oxygen though a DWC bubbler ??

    It's a medical resperatory therapy machine. It has a Dwyer flometer so I can set the flow. I'll run it to a seperate bubbler. Any idea what O2 concentration would be best?

    Oxygen though a DWC bubbler ??

    If a guy had an oxygen generator just laying around would running a bubbler from the O2 machine into a hydro setup be a good or bad thing for plant health?:joint:

    Alternative CO2 solution

    Is there any DATA? Exhale is supposed to produce 20,000 ppm (total I guess) of CO2 and last for 4 to 6 months? Is there any data anywhere on how many PPM an exhale bag would impart into a certain size area. Say a person had an area 4ft x 5 ft x 8 ft. A fair size area of 160 cubic feet. With...

    What to expect from an indoor CFL grow ??

    Due to just about every shipping snafu know to man my hard core growing "supplies" aren't all here yet. My goods from across the pond got here first. I got the mylar yesterday and 5 panels of r/b leds so I can start lining my closet anyway. These sprouts have popped up under Eco Lux flo tubes...

    Organic pest control. (question - Idea)

    We use to have a lawn care guy that sprayed all of our bushes and shrubs with a diluted mixture of dish soap and water. He claimed that bugs don't like soap and stay away. This diluted mixture is also supposed to help nute and water absorbtion. I've also heard of many gardners spraying a...

    First indoor grow. Any ideas or suggestions.

    When I decided I was going to try my hand at indoor growing I wondered my 8 foot high area was high enough. I've grown a few outsiders and they were Christmas trees. I know it depends allot on the strain but the results I'm seeing from indoor CFL grows aren't very abundent. I'm trying many...

    #1 indoor grow. NL/BB , WW sprouting. Now the waiting......

    Thinking about it a 24 cycle makes sense for grow when using CFLs or LEDS. I could see where higher intensity lights could cause stress and stretch and the plants need time to unwind. Maybe the 24 cycle with CFLs n LEDs gives them a consistent slow grow. OK. 24 hr it is until the plants say...

    attitude legit or scam?

    I was actually amazed how quickly my order came. I ordered 3 grow related things from Cali (I'm east coast) that I ordered BEFORE I placed my Attitude order and my Attitude came today. The other 3 items were sent FedEx, USPS and UPS and none are here. Looking at the tracking it looks like 2 of...

    Thanks ST. I'm trying several different things but my main goal is to flood the area with light. I'm using mostly CFLs and LEDs to keep down heat and costs but from what I'm reading I'll sacrifice harvest. I'm experimenting with starting mediums and will experiment with soils and DWC bubble...
