    my very first grow! a newbie attempt

    I'm just starting out, too. That many plants at once as a new grower and all doing so well? That's impressive.

    New grower needs help regarding ledmlights

    It seems like these small tents are marketed for folks who are not planning on training outwards to get an even canopy (scrog, topping + LST, etc). If you're planning on doing lst or scrog, are these useful even for one plant? Just asking. It seems built for non- topped growth.

    The Impeachment Of Donald Trump

    Didn't go out tonight so I figured I'd see what's happening in the internet. Holy sh!t. (I'm anti-Trump)

    USA and our current morass

    I think the only factor at work in whether Republican party members vote to convict (or voted to impeach) is approval rating. His has remained strong. Nixon's plummeted and he knew he was done for. In other words, this is not currently a merit-based process.

    Illinois Drought?

    Good thing the illegal market coming here out of Oregon is strong. Not that I'm advocating breaking the law, of course.

    USA and our current morass

    I'm thoroughly in the anti-Trump camp, myself. I used to have Republican friends but they've left the party over him. There's so much to object to on so many levels that it's hard to know where to start. A good friend who hates Clinton more than anyone I know cast a vote for her in 2016.

    5x5's Auto RDWC UK Cheese Grow

    Sorry if I didn't see this elsewhere in the thread, but what breeder/seed bank are you sourcing the auto UK Cheese from?

    USA and our current morass

    Trying to get my reaction count up. US folks: "Like" if you know the difference between impeachment and removal from office. "Heart" if you think everything in our system of government is now completely FUBAR. If both, probably just drink yourself into a stupor.

    Growing medical in IL

    Good to know people are already thinking of workarounds. Good luck.

    Growing medical in IL

    Another reason I'm doing autos. The big advantages of photos to me are basically negated by the five plant limit. If you get a rare and very nice cutting one day, you're basically just growing only that.

    Got a nice request today...

    This is a heartwarming and wholesome story. Good job, man.

    Bulbs or a light board?

    Be sure to carefully read the specs/description for those LEDs. A lot of times companies use "1000" and you read the fine print and the coverage and lumens are only claimed to be equivalent to 250w MH/HPS. I just purchased my first light set and from what I saw, the claimed lumen "equivalent"...

    Autoflower Portal

    Shit, that's amazing. I'm completely new so I'm hesitant to ruin good, pricey seeds with the inevitable f#ckups but it really seems like they do treat people right.

    Growing medical in IL

    I should really take a look at the law and see what it has to say about baby plants. From what I understand, the five plant limit applies to adult plants. There is absolutely no way for anyone to tell what some tiny seedlings under the starter grow light in my window are right now. I got the...

    Reusing soil

    I've had problems with gnats and with scale growing other types of plants. They're so damaging to the plant that they always kill it off eventually and spread themselves around. (Less of an issue with a plant you'll kill at harvest anyway, still an issue if you have other vulnerable plants...

    Growing medical in IL

    Shhhh . . . I'm starting from seed now (grow in my sig). Plants certainly won't be adults by the 1st. My neighborhood bartender has a card and insists that he can already grow legally, but ... he does him. I'm trying my best to do things on the cheap. Hydro stores in my area have some high...

    Illinois Drought?

    I'm in Chicago area and some prices have been back down over the past couple of months. Cresco and other similar are still going strong at 60-65 an eighth, but I've seen lower-profile growers at 40-something per eighth. I'm expecting city prices to spike in January due to recreational consumer...

    Autoflower Portal

    Thanks! I won some seeds from the Vault and have just started a small grow, so I can certainly wait until after the 6th for Mephisto. I smoke both recreationally and for medical reasons (some nerve pain and low level muscle spasms, sometimes difficulty sleeping). On the recreational side, I'm...

    Autoflower Portal

    It's more of a question of whether they're still something people are using our whether something happened. Posts about their seeds are positive but they're all older.

    Autoflower Portal

    They're definitely at the top of my list (though it looks like they're out of stock right now). One of the strains from AF Portal is really appealing to me given its particular medical aspects.
