I grow a couple of plants at a time under CFLs. My temp at soil level is around 77F during the day. I have an air intake fan at ground level, sucking in air from a five inch tube. Exhaust is passive. I know air circulation is critical. My question is, where is the best place to put a...

There are reports of $800/lb. pot in the Denver area. I think you're right. It isn't that hard to grow. And using factory farm techniques, it will just keep getting cheaper. Some have predicted they will be giving it away if you buy a lighter. Tobacco is harder to grow. Some of the tobacco...

Almost? Really? Almost?

It's a weed! I once saw a hemp plant growing from the base of a parking meter, it was nearly three feet tall! Weeds thrive on neglect. I am willing to bet more potential pot has been lost to over fertilizing than from under fertilizing. Decent seeds, decent soil, decent amount of air, light...

Why be so rude? This guy is asking a serious question. He is on the cusp of being the next marijuana kingpin and you mock him. I bet when he hauls in his harvest, with the help of Mexican mules with calves like melons, he won't give you any. Then where will you be?

My junior high science teacher had us do an experiment with Miracle-Gro. We grew bean plants, half with MG and half without. Those with MG grew to about twice the size of those without. One died because someone gave it too much MG. Now, when I grow MJ, it is because I want some MJ without...

Yeah, wink wink. The DA in Portland recently said they will not prosecute marijuana violations. Vancouver, Wa. sells pot for $25 or more a gram. That's getting up to near $1000 an oz.! I refuse to even consider it. And there are reports that a 2 gram bag(?) actually weighs in around 1.7 grams...

I was wondering what that monstrosity was. ;-) Your grow is definitely more organized than mine. Your buds are getting all frosty, mmmmm. You asked for suggestions; The level of the dirt to the top of the bucket seems a bit excessive. That space in there can become damp and be a harbor for...

Either move, or just buy less than an ounce from the local criminal drug seller. Buying pot supports criminals who may be involved in the drug cartels or growing in ecologically sensitive areas. A lot of bad Karma. Or move! Get to some place that allows for medical MJ, or one of the Shangri-Las...

A fan? Do I see a fan? I think circulation might be a problem. But, looking good.

I'm trying not to be mean. But dude, zero dollar grows are seldom worth the price. Buy a book. Buy some dirt. Buy a few lights. "Times with pot and no money will get you through better than times with money and no pot."

[ - 80%-91% Humidity Do you think this might be a problem? A camel would grow mold at this humidity. Forget covering them, keep a breeze blowing nearby. Pretend it is the plains of Afghanastan, try to duplicate something more like that. Buy a book.

Dude, you're wasting money! The dollar stores always have those sockets for, get this... a buck! The bucket fixture is genius. I'm now thinking plastic tote might work, too. Definitely has given me some ideas.

Them's some nice buds, bud.

I use 5 gallon buckets. Put some holes in the bottom for drainage and I'm good to go for 3 bucks. If 5 gallons are too big, Walmart has trashcans of various sizes. One thing to be careful of, if the plastic is too translucent it is best to tape some aluminum foil around the outside, to keep the...

You don't know how many mistakes you made. Really, you've made a lot. Please, do yourself a favor, read! Plan on spending about $100 for the basic amount of right stuff. Buy a book on CFL growing, or borrow from the public library. And read.

A friend turned me on to some BC Depot "God Bud" seeds some years back. Perfect! Grew easy, high was what I've been looking for. Saved a few seeds in the freezer for a couple of years (doh!) and half didn't pop and a couple were monsters that needed to be put out of their misery. The ones that...

I'm wondering about how being legal is going to affect home grows. I looked at Craigs List and $150/oz. is the going price for good stuff. How much cheaper will it go before it just ain't worth it? The legal stores in Vancouver, Wa. are charging $40/gram (and people are saying the weight is...

Just curious. Would using a generator be cheaper?

Are you using some of those small CFLs to light up the sides? I like to get one bulb per branch, whenever possible.
