    What to use as a door.

    https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/472399-entrance-door-new-6x6x6-grow.html Lots of ideas on that thread, but without more information on what you're working with it's kinda hard to answer. Like, budget, tent or wood frame, and etc. etc. Look through the thread, but for cheap and...

    First time growing...considering this set up...

    Multiple bulbs at 1602 lumens each will give you.......... a larger area with 1602 lumens! Lumens don't add, more bulbs will only give you more coverage area. One of the 125W CFL bulbs I referred to is 13.5" long and 3.5" wide, puts out equal to 1000W incandescent, and gives off between...

    First time growing...considering this set up...

    Unfortunately your bulbs are worthless, take them back and buy 6500K for the veg at least.

    First time growing...considering this set up...

    More than adequate space for one plant, though a couple of short plants would probably give better results and be easier to maintain than one tall one. Those lights are fine for germinating or early seedling, but they are really weak when it comes down to it. You could invest a bit more in a...

    Why the f are pics loading in sideways????

    Well, I tried it and it works both ways so hell if I know. I resized mine before I attached them so I dunno if you did or not, might make a difference. Either that or if you did you could have swapped the numbers by mistake, that'd do it. Here's the limitations chart for attaching images, but gl...

    germination is a nightmare

    You could always just veg a bit longer than usual, take the tops for your clones then throw them into flower after that, and by the time the clones take and you get them vegging you'll be a couple of weeks into flower on your original grow. You cold get to where you stagger them, and since...

    Why the f are pics loading in sideways????

    LOL, perhaps they just look rotated on your computer. The image orientation is actually part of the image itself, so I'm guessing your camera either can't or isn't set to automatically detect the vertical or horizontal attitude when you take a pic. You could try opening one of your images in a...

    germination is a nightmare

    I mean, yeah they're alive, but it depends on how long, how wet, and etc. You don't really want to wait and find out though, get them in soil and that will be your answer. When germinating in soil, mind their orientation so the pointy end is down, or some like to put them on their side with...

    6 days after planting, how do they look? any suggestions

    That's better, but still not quite the same thing mate. The bulbs I linked to are equal to over 1000W of incandescent light, and those say around 575W equivalent, meaning the lumen output would be close to half of what I listed at 7-8K, in theory. They're said to be 23cm long while the ones I...

    6 days after planting, how do they look? any suggestions

    You're not going to break the stems if you spray the plants, but I'd skip the spraying and water every other day or when the cups feel really light and are all but dry. Seedlings especially, are less sensitive to low water levels since they use less than a mature plant with more size, so if you...

    4 pin 12v cpu fan to ac?

    In case you haven't already tried, and figured it out.... yeah, the red and black are usually the two you'll need to wire up to power the fan. Yellow is to sense speed, and blue is to control it (by the computer). Once again though, look at what the output of the cell charger is. My charger...

    Computer Fans...

    As for the bulbs, I mean, yeah those will work for vegging for a bit. I'd like to point out a few things though. First, you don't need the 2700K bulbs for veg, they're more for flowering and aren't doing you much good for what it costs to run them. Second, lumens don't add up, so if you have 5 x...

    Computer Fans...

    The amperage is what you want to look out for, don't undershoot it as it can and will burn your fan out. The rule is that you can have more, but not less, and with hooking more than one fan up, sure you can, but you have to add the amps each fan requires together and make sure your adapter puts...

    trichs or what?

    Those are trichomes, but not what you're thinking. Trichomes are all over the plant, they look like small fine hairs covering the leaves, stems, etc, and are found on males too, but aren't unique to cannabis plants. The glandular stalked trichomes that you are looking for, usually don't start...

    New to this, what do you think?

    Here are a couple of good references if you'd care to check them out. You really should if you're not entirely sure about when to harvest and what you'll end up with based on when you do. ;) http://www.420magazine.com/forums/how-grow-marijuana/71982-what-trichomes-trichome-101-a.html...

    New to this, what do you think?

    The hairs are pistils that turn to a reddish color as flowing progresses. Trichomes aren't native to just cannabis, but are the key areas where THC and CBN are secreted by the plant. Like my name, glandular stalked trichomes are the "crystals" which are visible, particularly on the flowers...

    Cheapest bulbs i can get to grow yummy buds

    Running one of the 125W CFL bulbs constantly for an entire month would cost $8.10 where I live. You would have to check your bill or look online for the price per kilowatt-hour for your electric company in your area. Depending on the size of your grow though, one of those does a lot. Here's an...

    New to this, what do you think?

    You can use binoculars if you have some and don't want to buy a magnifier, looking through them backwards works just like a microscope. You have to get the lens up quite close, and just look through one side since they won't both be pointed at the same spot. The magnification power depends on...

    Cheapest bulbs i can get to grow yummy buds

    Good luck! A word to the wise though, the bulbs you get at 12 for $20 are nowhere near as strong as the big ones. The ones I linked to are 13.5" long and 3.5" wide, put out 7-8000 lumens and are the CFL's you use to get the most bang for your bud/buck. They're equal to over 1000W of...
