    2x2 Tent Setup for a Light User

    No kidding! I lost track of the number of gadgets and 'upgrades' I've bought. I just pay the Amazon bill at the end of the month...never look at it! OP: That's a good list. Tent has metal connectors/corners so that's good, and you're thinking of a lot of the right things. Quality basics to get...

    CptTripps' first grow journal.

    Mar 31 - Day #68 from napkin. Diesel ladies are doing really well. A couple of the branches bent over from the weight of the buds, so I need to get in there and figure something out for that. I see a lot of guys "super cropping" basically doing the same thing on purpose, so I'm not going to...

    AC Infinity, how silent?

    Exactly what @f series said. Top of the line for a reason. The built-in temp/RH functions are nearly worth the price of the fan, and you get a free fan that outperforms everything else on the market.

    New room build 6x14

    Great looking space! Congrats. Are you planning on adding more light as you add plants? I don't know HPS all that well, but 800w doesn't seem like much for a space that big. (Honest question.)

    Beginner grow.

    I'd suggest waiting until it's nice outside and start over out there. You'll be much happier with the results. No. It doesn't work like that. You'll lose a lot of the power the light has if it's in a nearby fixture. The light needs to be 18-24" from the plant, and reflected right at it if...

    Ventilation question

    I have the 6" version in my 4X8. Bad-ass fan. (I re-did it after the pic was taken, but you get the idea.) The links I posted are the 4" version of everything I have in my tent. The fan speed auto adjusts to either temperature, or humidity setting, depending on what mode it's in. So if it's only...

    Outdoor Grow off the rails

    From what I've read, leaves will start to change colors towards the end of flowering, so I am not sure that you're doing anything wrong at all.

    Ventilation question

    The AC infinity fans are awesome. Little more expensive than the Vivosun fans, but if you buy the Cloudline version, you get a built in heat sensor that will kick to a higher speed automatically to control the heat in the tent. I originally bought the Vivosun version for $175 and then a heat...

    What is the best strain to grow in a tent UK?

    If you're a beginner, and just wanting to get your feet wet in the hobby to learn, I'd suggest growing an auto of some variety. Less guesswork. Some say your yield will suffer a little bit, but with the ease of growing, and speed of the crop, I think it's a good trade-off. You'll learn a lot n...

    Nute question: Dr. Jimz "Chicken Soup for the Soil" Opinions?

    Just the Chicken Soup. Been using it, with the addition of Cal/Mag for about 20d now, and my plants have never looked happier. (I've got one plant towards the end of flower, and she's starting to yellow, but that's not the chicken soup's fault.) My first full grow with it will be complete in...

    Fox Farm ocean Forest

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079Q1HR9V/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Worked really well for me when I went out of town. I'm thinking of using it more permanently.

    For experts

    If you leave the male plant, the sacs will break and it'll pollinate the female plant, meaning that all the female plant will do is make seeds. Nothing smokable. ...unless that's what you're going for. Put it in the fireplace or a nearby trashcan.

    For experts

    This plant is 100% male. Yank it before it pollinates the other plant.

    Diy flood trays

    This is a thicker option...though not as big as you need. I'm sue they sell bigger rolls. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Rubber-Cal-EPDM-1-4-in-x-36-in-x-120-in-Commercial-Grade-60A-Rubber-Sheet-Black-20-109-0250-36-120/303448139

    Diy flood trays

    Walking on it won't be an issue. They're rubber and really thick. I used one for my darkroom setup years ago. There's a sealant that you use on the edges that melts the edges together so they're water tight too. The issue you're going to have with the fiberglass is that if it's not thick...

    Harvesting Setup Questions

    If you're in a small apartment and growing, it's going to be difficult. If you just started, we have some time to figure this out though. Cardboard boxes may be the best bet for you. From what I've read, you're going to want to have no light when you're drying/curing, so one option is to use...

    3x3 grow tent setup up

    On my first tent, the filter/fan was the first thing I set up. I was honestly most worried about the installation. It was a lot easier than I thought it would be. Just take a few min, think everything through, mock it up, and then go for it. On my 3X3, I didn't have one of the big vents open at...
