    Got a Sample Auto Seed. What to do with it?

    Thanks for the info. I think I will leave her in the Veg room but buy a 200WCFL warm spectrum to supplement. 20/4 If she gets too big she will have to move to the flower room to finish. I hope to prune her to a single cola with no lower buds.

    Got a Sample Auto Seed. What to do with it?

    Some time ago I received some free seeds with an order. I just realized one was an auto. Delicious Seeds Il Diavolo I have no experience with autos or methods of growing other than the methods I use now, which work quite well. In my veg room I use 2' 3' and 4' T5's. Vertical space is limited...

    Things You found Out on your own

    I have learned from every mistake I have made. Which is to say a lot! I have learned to design everything in a grow room to be easy to control, clean, repair, and replace. I have learned not to waste time with weak plants. Clone, Germ and Veg more than I need and flower only the strong girls. I...

    Best Way to Clean Reservoir Lines

    I periodically take my bucket system apart and give it a real good cleaning. I was wondering what is the best way to clean the 1/2 inch lines between the rez and buckets. I was thinking to submerse them with a pump and run water and ????? through them for while. What should I use though...

    Tough to get my family off my computer for some privacy to post. These pics are from 2 days ago. First a spotlight on some new tools of the trade. I am replacing my cheaper aquarium pumps with new stronger pumps from the grow store. They produce a lot more bubbles. The Hydro Sparkle was...

    Welcome. I am also very new. I agree. The 6.5 number came from the instructions provided by the grow store. Last rez change I changed things up a bit. I was unhappy with my first results. I dropped the ph to 6.2 and added a small amount of veg nutes. I also paid more attention to temps in the...

    Thanks. This is not what I originally intended. I started with a cabinet. Which grew to 2 cabinets. Which grew to a room. Which grew to a 2nd flowering room at another location. At this point for everything I have spent since I started this new hobby last summer is just shy of $14K. I was pretty...

    Thanks. I got the cloner at the grow store. To be honest I have been happy with most purchases there. But... I have overpaid for some things. DIY/Internet would be much cheaper. The grow store has its advantages, the guys working there have taught me a lot and are very helpful. Plus buying...

    Thanks, I put a lot of thought into it. Trying to maximize the space the wife agreed to let me use. Trying to build the room with a certain potential yield such that it would act as additional form of employment insurance. Trying to make it flexible so that I can play with my new toys and hobby...

    No I haven't really done much DIY stuff yet. Paying through the nose for stuff that I could make but getting a lot of knowledge along the way. Eventually I will do as much DIY as I can. All part of the fun. The can came from my grow store.

    Help. I can't decide what kind of DWC setup to use.

    I have a 3'x8' flowering space to use under 2 600W HPS in tubes. My original thought was to use 2 3'x4' DWC reservoirs and make tops for them that would have 16 plants each. I would veg for 2/3 weeks and then flower. My thoughts are that this would be easy to setup, easy to clean between crops...

    It's been a few days and most of my clones are yet to pop roots out the bottom of the pots. I had some heat issues the first day or so. My vegging reservoirs on the bench were getting as high as 74 degrees. I had the air pumps down low to get cool air but to no avail. I think the heat is...
