    Power Consumption / Light Cost

    I hate to be the one to break it to you, there's no pot there. Looks like a bunch of vegetables and other worthless plants. I think you might have gotten ripped off. Sorry.

    First grow with CFL - Need help

    Grams a week! That's about 5 ounces a year! Think what it'll be like if you unlimited access. I go through about an ounce and a half (40 grams) a year. And I get high nearly every day. I'm a lightweight. That's why I need only grow every two years. Any longer than that and I wouldn't feel safe...

    Growing Apprenticship

    I happen to like McDonalds. Some people like Burger King or Karls Jr. It is the same meal in New York or in Mississippi. Clean, wholesome, gut bombs. Smoking isn't all that good for one's health, either. Seems edibles are very popular in Colorado, and I don't think it matters if it is great...

    Ringlamp grow

    I've always wondered what a grow would be like with those lights. Looks pretty cool! Too bad they don't have different size loops. If you had about four of those long fluorescent tubes vertically on the outside, I bet you'd get a decent weed.

    You are getting very close to being obnoxious. Just ask me, I'll give you proof. You don't have to be that way. Here is the Craigs List for my local area. Most of these guys will deliver locally. http://portland.craigslist.org/search/sss?query=marijuana&sort=rel

    Growing Apprenticship

    Every plant is NOT unique. People use clones because they don't want differences. Clone a good strain, breed in some good genetics and viola! you'll have a superior product each and every time. People go to McDonalds because it is a quality meal no matter where you go. Joe's Diner might be...

    Growing Apprenticship

    Oh, for sure. For me it's a great hobby. But as pot is going for close to $100 an ounce up here, the incentive to invest time and money into growing is diminishing. I live where there isn't much sun. Lack of sun is a big factor in seasonal depression. I spend hours a day in my grow area...

    First grow with CFL - Need help

    A half-ounce (14 grams) in a week? People like you is why I don't let people know I have pot. It takes me a full year to smoke two ounces.One grow easily lasts me two years. If I smoke your pot, one or two hits is enough. If you smoke my pot, you'd be sucking a month's worth, and still you'd...

    First grow with CFL - Need help

    You can go to any nursery and find all types of potting soils. Look for ones that have 'hippie' type art. You know, like Fox Farms does. That stuff is perfect for pot growing. I recently grew with some off brand cheap-o soil. Yeah, it worked, but I had some problems with it. For a couple of...

    First grow with CFL - Need help

    Yeah, I thought so. I looked up your Groene Jan soil, and with the help of Google Translation I was able to figure out what was going on . The 14-16-18 means there is already nutrients in it. In the US we have Miracle Gro soil with similar additives. Your soil does not need fertilizer, "nutes"...

    I say use soil as is, because they make it to be good. Bi66er says different. That's what makes growing such an art. Does your soil have a name?

    First grow with CFL - Need help

    I'm not sure what kind of soil you're using. A good potting soil has everything you need. As far as stealth, I'm not a fan of that. Pot stinks. I grow a small amount and it is noticeable throughout my house. This is a surge protector ...

    First grow with CFL - Need help

    I was going to say that about the chlorine. As far as air exchange, I think as long as the temperature is right, the air exchange is good. At least with CFLs.

    New grower and new cfl grow

    Fertilizer will not make anything go faster. It will make things bigger, but it won't make it faster. That's a common noob mistake.

    Growing Apprenticship

    Now there is a glut of pot in Washington state. They were selling it, wholesale, for $21 a gram, now it is getting close to two bucks a gram! And yet, the stores are still selling it for $25- $35 a gram; bastards! Pot is so easy to grow. The trick in the future is to get the most THC per watt...

    First grow with CFL - Need help

    No, no, no. No humidifier. Think of Afghanistan, that's where good pot grows. Not the Amazon. What is the temperature of the grow area? And a fan. you need to keep the air circulating. And you need fresh air. It is like juggling, keep the air moving and keeping the temp in the right range...

    New grower and new cfl grow

    An interesting thing about my grow area is that if the temperature is too high, it also indicates that I'm not getting enough air flow. When my temperature is right, so many other things are right. I have three thermometers. One high, one at bud level (also a remote thermometer) and a probe...

    Is It Ready Yet?

    Ok... I read a little from you book site, too. Seems "is it done" is highly variable, by breed and I'm finding, by plant. I am growing two God Buds from BCBudDepot, my third grow with this strain. One plant is mostly Indica, and is nearing completion (having harvested a few of the more...

    found this in my shed

    You do know that the ballasts go out on those things? I used to grow with them before CFLs came along. I'd throw them out after one or two grows, because the electricity wasn't worth the light a degraded unit emits. They can be bought for less than $20 each. Here, Homedepot has 'em for...
