    NL CFl and LED grow(1st time noobie!)

    Before I am going to say what I am going to say next, your grow is looking great! Now, 5100k is ok. But, 6500k is better for vegging. 5100k is closer to the greener spectrums which is light the plant cannot absorb. You don't wanna be in the middle. Either 1900k-2700k for flowering or 6000k+...

    How to build a PC Grow Box (Pics Included)

    Referring to OP pics: I see you use nexus fans. Nexus fans are good but SilenX fans have an even better CFM to dB ratios across all their products. This is what they advertise and a quick comparison of numbers between the manufacturers confirms this. I'll definitely be adding more to this...

    Fans for Small Stealth Grow Box

    I need TRUE stealth for my grow: no odors, no light, negligible sound. I'm doing a 24" PC case grow with CFL, 35w HPS, and LED. Needless to say, heat can be an issue. So, I needed to find fans with the lowest decibel to CFM ratio. I've been doing PC repair for years now and have a decent...

    WHats the worst that has happend. DId you learn?

    I tried to make self-watering pots for a grow. They actually worked--drawing up the solution from the reservoir that was under my plants. My mistake became apparent when after adding nutes to my reservoir my plants started to discolor and crumble on the lower leaves. I thought "what the...

    Buddha Seeds Feminized Red Dwarf Stealth PC CFL Grow

    Duly noted! It's amazing how many things don't shock a cannabis plant and how many things that do. Lovin' watchin' your grow, man. Keep it up. Definitely will watch your next one too.

    White Dwarf autoflower Picture journal

    I'm pretty sure stem color is more indicative of either nitrogen levels (normal or deficient) or genetics (i.e. different strains, or even different phenotypes within a given strain).

    PC Tower/Server CFL/LED Grow

    Haha. I've changed my seed selections but I'm still close with White Dwarf (an auto variety) and Amnesia Lemon. Removing excess metal for custom fan mounts and making more space was quite a task. I used a knockoff dremel-type tool and Dremel brand heavy-duty cutting disks. I probably went...

    NL CFl and LED grow(1st time noobie!)

    Idk man. I've heard about a 95% success rate with the paper towel method if used correctly. Plus, I don't know the quality or origin of your seeds. You gotta buy from the Attitude Seedbank http://www.cannabis-seeds-bank.co.uk/ --seriously--every seed has germinated from them for me when I've...

    PC Tower/Server CFL/LED Grow

    So, yesterday I added a bunch of nitrogen-rich nutrients: FF Tomato & Vegetable, Organic Miracle Gro (only because it has H20-soluble N), Organic Blood Meal, molasses water on soil and leaves, and urine. I didn't see any extra yellowing or browning at the tips today and I think she's already...

    NL CFl and LED grow(1st time noobie!)

    The one LED on the right is doing a little bit. The one on the left is (sorry!) doing virtually nothing: inverse square law.

    PC Tower/Server CFL/LED Grow

    The foliar feeding was kind of just another minor effort. Look at the pics and you can see the yellowing/downward curling. It got worse today, which is why I added more nutes. I think it could be one of three things: nute lockout, nute burn, or N deficiency. The first two force me to rethink my...

    What do you guys think? I'm really pulling for a N deficiency.

    PC Tower/Server CFL/LED Grow

    Sweet man. I wanna see your new setup! On another note, I think I'm getting a bit of a nitrogen deficiency in my White Dwarf. I added some Fox Farms Tomato and Vegetable Fertilizer, Organic Blood Meal, Organic Miracle Gro (sparingly), and molasses water as a foliar feed to get nitrogen right...

    PC Tower/Server CFL/LED Grow

    Your grow is lookin' good too, man. What kind of lighting system are you thinking of getting? Thanks for the offer, haha. But I can't fit any more light in my box without getting my temps above 86F. Use your LED panel as side lighting for supplement spectrums--really good for vegetative...
