    To top or not to top?

    I've got 3 girls that have been vegging a couple of weeks. I just transferred 2 of them yesterday into bigger pots. I've noticed growth since the transfer so I presume there wasn't much stress to the plants. Would I be doing myself a disservice by topping so soon after a transfer or will I be fine?

    Transfer with pest problem?

    They look like some sort of mite. They're either black or dark brown and very tiny. They aren't actually on the leaves, they're only in the soil so that's where I sprayed the neem oil (ortho brand). I've been trying to look up other methods to try. My grow is organic so I'm trying to keep it...

    Transfer with pest problem?

    When I was going to transplant my plant into a bigger pot I noticed a bit of a pest problem in the soil. I tried using this neem oil shit I got from the store and had no success so I've got to find another resolution. With that being said, was I right in waiting to try to get rid of the pest...

    Was it the lights or the genetics that were the problem?

    bag seed first grow

    Looks good. I too have a couple of bag seeds I'm running before I get into the good genes myself. I've grown autos before but this is my first run with photos.

    The Light of a China Man

    What's the most pants you could get under that light say using 3 gal or smaller pots? I too was looking at this light for flowering no more than 4 plants.

    HPS with built in ballast vs HPS without

    Ive got some seeds I just started..hopefully but the time it is time to flower my grow room will be constructed and I will be able to get that 600 watt HPS. I was a little worried about the electric bill so i was looking to go the LED route but after seeing what the bill is on 20/4 with the t5 I...

    Complete red spectrum for flower?

    Oh yeah I know what you mean. I meant in terms of me not having as much light as possible reflecting on the plant. We were supposed to build a closet because my cousin does contractor work but it has yet to be done. I just have Mylar hanging around the lights

    Complete red spectrum for flower?

    yeah I know I can't get great results because my set up is pretty shitty. It also doesn't help that I have a couple leaks for light to get out because of my shitty set up. How big is your grow area? That's a lot of lights lol

    HPS with built in ballast vs HPS without

    I've decided I'm going to stay away from the built in ballasts. I found a 600 watter with a remote ballast that I've got my eye on for maybe 10 bucks more. It comes with one of those batwing reflectors tho..are those things any good?

    Complete red spectrum for flower?

    I want to get a new light for flower but with limited funds I have been having to make due with my t5. I used 2 red and 2 blue spectrum (54 watt bulbs) for flower. Would a complete red spectrum make better buds until I can get an HPS or LED? Any thoughts or suggestions? Still a new guy...

    Mite problem in soil?

    I originally thought I had spider mites but these fuckers I have I am starting to notice like staying in the dirt, not under the plant. It's almost time to cut but these fuckers are a hindrance jjust like the heat has been, as I've had to add an additional fan. Has anybody ever seen mites that...

    HPS with built in ballast vs HPS without

    hahahahaha good one. But that makes great sense. I thought it was the bulb that generated the most heat..so it's actually the ballast that does? Or both?

    HPS with built in ballast vs HPS without

    I definitely want to upgrade my t5 set up..I've been looking at HPS light 250 watt and 400 watt lights. Is there a difference between the two in terms of performance?

    Organic solution for spider mites

    yes it is very odd..there's gotta be a million of those little fuckers crawling on the soil and around the pot but I haven't seen one pest on the plant.

    Organic solution for spider mites

    Thanks a lot. I just read up on that stuff. Where can you buy lady bugs? A pet store? And I am assuming you are growing indoors like me as well?

    Organic solution for spider mites

    I left for the Memorial Day weekend and returned yesterday. My plant has grown beautifully and i estimate to have about a week or two more, but I've noticed I've got a little spider mite problem. I haven't seen them climbing under the leaves really, which is weird to me since I read they feed on...

    Need help with choosing t5 light

    I don't do anymore than 3 plants under my 4 foot 4 bulb fixture. I would say if you're growing more than 3 plants to definitely get 6-8 bulbs.

    any tips on my medium mix?

    Sounds good to me..my only thing is I think molasses should only be used when mixed in water, not in the soil directly.
