    Auto, nearly 1 month since planting, looks a couple days old PLEASE HELP!

    Oh you're welcome, the least I could do considering all the help I've received. You can start the plant with the one cfl by itself. Once it's 4-5 days old add the other CFL. I'd entirely remove the flood bulb from your grow.

    Auto, nearly 1 month since planting, looks a couple days old PLEASE HELP!

    Don't be embarrassed about asking questions or showing your failures. It's really the best way to learn because the helpful people here really, really a wealth of knowledge. Just when I thought I had a hold on things, bam, my nice plant died overnight. I learned a great deal by posting for help...

    Closet Grow ! CFL's

    Awesome to hear and thanks for the update. Keep them coming. I would increase the time the lights are on if you can. I normally go 20 on 4 off. Sometimes I even go 24/7 till they start to flower then 18/6. All in all, looks like a great start. Once the roots hit the water your plants are...

    Nordika - Week 6

    Yeah, that Nirvana Sky sounds good, I looked at that one when I was ordering my seeds a few months back. This is my first auto Sativa run ever so I was looking for fast finishers to see what they are about. I started a Jock Horror auto with this and for some reason it really never took off...

    frist time growing in closet need help!!!! i have no clue what i am doing

    Ok, I will be out for the night in a few minutes, watching the fights. Don't need the pesticide. Get generic 3 gallon plastic pots with holes already in them, if you have 5 gallon buckets laying around use them and drill a bunch of holes on the bottom. Don't buy any department store soil...

    frist time growing in closet need help!!!! i have no clue what i am doing

    Another thing you can do is get a cheap vanity light, and a piece of power cord. (make sure it's of good gauge, not too skimpy, I used a computer cord) All you need to do is wire the cord to the vanity light, it's very easy, see youtube and type "vanity light power cord". Positive, negative...

    frist time growing in closet need help!!!! i have no clue what i am doing

    It doesn't have to be all complicated. You can't run a large light in that closet anyway because it will cook the plants. The cheapest and simplest way to get started is this. Get two power strips. 12.00 Get 4 socket to plug adapters 4.00 Get 4 Y-Splitters 12.00 Get 8 cfl...

    Closet Grow ! CFL's

    With the seedling that size I would just use distilled/ro water and a tiny bit of the ph down or 2 teaspoon of white vinegar for the entire 5 gallon bucket. There have been many times where i just start with distilled water, no nutes and they will get going. Don't sweat it for now, their not...

    Ventilating when its cold outside?

    ^^^^ agree especially where he says "as you have the ducting hole looking like a proper job" There are a few grow houses in my immediate area with exhaust vents blatantly obvious. It can be spotted a mile away by even the untrained eye. You can end up busted or ripped off if you're lazy...

    Call it........hydro exp gone mad .....imput wellcome.Autoflowering strain gone nutz

    I, and probably most others with larger plants, have the same problem of water replacement in 5 gallon buckets. Since I have some 10 gallon tubs laying around I started thinking about cutting a circle on a lid that would fit the net pot. The 10 gallon tub has a lower height than a 5 gallon...

    were u ever bullied?

    Weightlifting is good to stay toned but you need to experience combat on a regular basis for a while before you can be an effective fighter. The thing that gets most people, even giant buff dudes, is fight or flight factor. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fight-or-flight_response It will screw...

    i have 4 t5-24watt fluorescents & also a 250 watt mh/hps light what ones do i use????

    ^^^^^ Yep, use the T5 for now. If you get it wrong with the HID the death comes very fast. I had a seedling under a 400 watt MH and went to check it after a few hours and it was fried to death.

    To anyone who uses Advanced Nutrients

    I heard Fox Farm was going to wage jihad on Bulgarian corruption. That would be a sight to behold, it is probably their biggest problem.

    Tell me what you think.

    I think they are expensive and unnecessary.

    Growing with Guns... What is your take on it.

    ATF is Federal law and so is the form 4473. Lying on the document would be a Federal charge, not state. Your state law would not stop federal officers from arresting you and charging you under federal law.

    NL Blue Auto Delicious Seeds

    Looking great and thanks a bunch for posting the pics. It makes it difficult to choose strains when you never see mid growth images. It always seems available pics are seedlings in an abandoned journal, a stock photo for seed bank listings or harvest images.
