    Cloning: How bad did I mess up?

    To add to that: Get some perlite and clean it with a strainer with regular tap water and then completely soak it with the water you plan to use. Drain off any extra water until your strainer doesn’t drip anymore and use the wet perlite to make a nice 1-2 inch bed inside the clone tray, put your...

    first timer...5 bagseeds...5 different problems...18 days old 4' bulb t5

    I personally pH all my soil-destined nutes at 6.3-6.5 and I never have any imperfections at all. As for your issues, don't worry, they will be ok and grow into nice beautiful plants. Keep in mind that virtually none of the foliage that you see now, will survive long enough to see the flower...

    Cloning: How bad did I mess up?

    You would be amazed at the abuse and neglect this plant can take. I'm not saying it is acceptable to neglect and abuse, but they can make it through quite a bit of extreme conditions.

    Cloning: How bad did I mess up?

    Get the dome temp up to 80 degrees and humidity as high as possible and they will perk back up. I've done the same thing and mine perked back up very quickly, 100% rooted and by quickly, I'm talking 2-3 hours. Clones don't need a ton of light like full grown plants do. Just the light from a...

    HVAC TECHS - On a quest for the correct mini split

    Funny you should ask because I happen to have 2 x 65" inline fans that I'm not using for anything else and my lighting consists of 2 x 4 light runs about 20 feet long so 2 x inline fans would be perfect to hook up at the end of the runs. I suppose as long as I seal the ductwork up really well...

    HVAC TECHS - On a quest for the correct mini split

    The ICM HPC arrived in the mail yesterday and I have the same HVAC guy that I said I didnt want to bother, coming by to check it all out after I set it up. Hes going to check my work to make sure its all solid and the he is going to evacuate the lines for me, install the HPC (I dont wanna frig...

    but per light?

    Your rude and cocky attitude does not serve you well. Where did anyone say anything about 90 degrees at night and setting and forgetting at 90?

    Obama's Critique of Young People Who Want Legal Marijuana

    I watched this on VICE the day it came out. Needless to say, I became enraged at his panacea comment. The truth is, legalization IS A PANACEA! The ripple from legalization, IMO, could change the planet entirely, including ALL industry on the face of the Earth! GRRRRRRR NOW IM PISSED!

    HVAC TECHS - On a quest for the correct mini split

    It would be even cooler (hotter if I was intending a pun) if you built an enclose that covered it and sealed completely and then hooked the louvres up to motorized hinges that were triggered by a temp probe. It would take some serious dialing in to ensure that you aren't smothering your...

    HVAC TECHS - On a quest for the correct mini split

    That seems logical. So it isn't possible to install a HPC on an inverter? I was going to say maybe you should pick up an HPC of your own if so but if I'm understanding you correctly, you can't do that on an inverter, and of course you already knew that lol

    HVAC TECHS - On a quest for the correct mini split

    So basically the ICM HPC just keeps the pressure up thus keeping temperature up as well, keeping the outdoor unit from getting too cold or freezing up? Will this one do the job...

    HVAC TECHS - On a quest for the correct mini split

    Fortunately I already have all wiring, connectors, crimper, and I even have an old 24V transformer still connected to the basement floor joists from the old doorbell that was in my ancient Detroit house, so that works out well for me :) So the wire MUST be stranded? Can't use solid? So middle of...

    HVAC TECHS - On a quest for the correct mini split

    Not everyone runs larger scale residential operations for the purposes of making as much money as possible. I am extremely generous and I only do this so I can do what I truly love while providing my family with a comfortable living, and also being able to offer my patients high quality meds...

    but per light?

    Temps of 90 degrees are PREFERRED when using Co2 because it increases metabolism, but of course you MUST keep Co2 levels up or the benefit will diminish and the plants will start to stress from the high temps. Basically, the high temps allow the plants to actually use all that Co2, otherwise if...

    HVAC TECHS - On a quest for the correct mini split

    I thought about that as well but if I'm going to be selling it, I will have to use the money for other things. I would rather keep it. I can keep my lighting ducted and cooled if need be so 4000 x 8 = 32000. The two of them together should do the trick.

    but per light?

    I have ran four air cooled 1000's during 70 degree night time temps with 2 8000 BTU window units. Of course this was in a basement though so my situation may not be the same as yours. I would splurge for the mini if you plan to expand. If you're just sticking with 6-8kW, throw another window AC...

    HVAC TECHS - On a quest for the correct mini split

    Sounds like you got the serious hook up and the universe gave you all the luck to get that deal. I know that some mini split sellers will offer a lower price if they dont have it in stock yet and then they raise the price quite a bit as soon as they buy it and have it in stock. Good luck and...
