I've built numerous home-made carbon filters and can honestly say that they don't do shit. Go to a grow-store and pick up a can carbon filter.....it weighs about 20 lbs or more...it takes that much carbon to filter out bud stink.

Picture having to take a six-beer piss in the middle of the night and the fuckin' zipper is stuck to the tent you're sleeping in.....really stuck....and you cannot get out. I had to cut the door open......and it was a brand-new tent.....which went into the dumpster the next day.

You are getting a most excellent mentor if you follow RM3's lead.

I'm not sure who you're trying to convince? There's too many variables where we both could be way off.....I dunno. It is what it is. I'm no expert about this stuff.....after growing 100's of plants I still make mistakes....dumb mistakes at times. Not knowing how much yield one will...

4-5 lbs? Are we talking wet-weight? I have 16 plants under 4 600w and I'll get two+ lbs....and my plants are bigger than the one's in the picture. I'm not trying to be negative about your grow....it looks great...I'm just not seeing anywhere near 4-5 lbs.

I'm going with a pound too.... You asked.

I have a buddy that bought some used kitchen cabinets cheap on Craigslist and he made them his veg cabinets. Works well and doesn't look odd in the basement or garage. Tents are stealthy?

Believe it or not, Walmart carries grow tents online that are affordable. I'm no expert about tents other than I absolutely hate zippers (bad camping experience) and it always seems like everyone's zippers crap out...and I personally find it a pain to constantly zip and unzip to get at my...

I use Jacks Bloom Booster from beginning to end, although everyone that I respect tells me I should be going with the Citrus Feed (low P) instead.....but to be honest, I like how my plants grow out for the most part. I do have to add bat guano and cal/mag at times depending on the strain. I...

It has nothing to do with being sensitive....No-one was calling me names. Yes, calling out disinformation is the right thing to do, but there's no reason to call someone a fucking idiot while doing it. "RIU is the best by far"........seriously?

It's exchanges like this that makes RIU the last place anyone should come to get advice about growing. There's never a thread that doesn't end up with a bunch of useless name-calling and putting down of other members. I'm a member of numerous grow sites and it's only here that I see such crap...

If you're new....focus on indica-dom strains...they're easy and resistant to the long list of beginner mistakes. I have four 600 watts over my area...but would recommend 1000's...probably 4 if your room is 10x10 and you have good height (1000's shouldn't be any closer than 2' above your...

I have what amounts to 8'x8' of grow area and have played with plant counts for the past 2 years.....from over 50 to where I'm now.....16 plants. Having a shit-ton of plants in a relatively small area is an absolute pain in the ass...especially growing in soil. Easily 10 times more work for no...

If you want to play it safe and are only growing a couple of plants I suggest digging holes (at least the size of a 5 gal bucket) and put in the 5 gal bucket and filling it with proven grow medium like Happy Frog. It's the best way to ensure that you have the right stuff for your plants.

Wow....that's almost a record....it's only taken 18 posts before someone starts making it personal. I've been dealing with heat issues due to the 4 600 watt HPS lights I am running and seriously considered LED's as a cooler alternative. I have not looked into LED's for awhile and each time I...

If you have the bucks....get yourself a LED. Go with a 1000K

If you want to optimize your area, stagger the times of when you start your plants. Go with one every three weeks and 9 weeks from now you'll have a plant to chop once every three weeks. You'll be able to grow bigger plants as all of them are not mature and it's nice not have to deal with...

From everything I've read you should keep N in its diet all the way through. I use Jack's Classic Bloom Booster from beginning to end and have to add a bit of bat shit and calmag along the way.

ah......I grew some supposed alculpolco gold knock off....."Hippie Killer" and was very disappointed. Maybe we should swap again soon.

LMAO Rory! If you're referring to Stella.....I got it from you! So.....did I get the original?
