    Success using only PART of Vegamatrix's line?

    Eh, Ive been hearing a lot of good things, sposed to make it taste/burn better. Plus, got a ton free. But, still... theyre small enough to transplant to coco and go with the cyco I already have... but I'd like to try *using just the three nutes of* the Vegamatrix as well.

    *NEED NUTRIENT HELP*

    I LOVE Fox Farms Ocean Forest. Just be sure to add about 20-25% perlite to aerate it better, & DONT OVER FEED! Fox Farms is NOT hot, it DOESNT burn your plants... unless you MAKE it hot & MAKE it burn your plants. FF, can get cannabis plants through their first 2-4 weeks as-is, with no extra...

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Got my shipment in a discreet brown box. Nothing that could be compromising to a grower in a non-friiendly state.

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Reference please. WHO is pulling less than 1/2g/watt using "high end leds"? A retarted, blind monkey? Because I know Viparspectra ownera (FAR from high end) who pull well over that. So you mean to tell us all - with a straight face - that Spectrum King, cree 3590's, hlg qb288's - everyone using...

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    I agree... though I tend to go by grams pulled, nowadays. My thumbs not as green as some folks' lol I find I do a bit better with 2-4 smaller plants, done ScrOG style. I love the single, big beauties... but my tent doesnt lol ✌

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Idk about all that... What got ME wanting one, was seeing a friend pull over a quarter pound of lower yielding gsc, out of a 30" x 24" homemade "tent" (just a rectangle walled off with mylar), with a single qb288. Doubt if you like... reality is reality. And in reality, a single qb288 can...

    The 304's a tad more efficient than the 288. But both produce the same wattage

    Training tips to increase yield!

    Wouldnt it be better to just plant them individual, in their own, smaller pots?

    Training tips to increase yield!

    Yah... I was scratching my head reading that, too. The only time Iv ever seen/heard of multiple plants in the same pot working, is when it is used as a "culling" method. You intentionally plant 2-4 seeds/cuttings per pot, & then cull out the slower, less vigorous plants. Helps with quality &...

    AN sensi a/b vs AN grow/bloom/micro

    My opinion, is that yes, advanced nutrients works... but so does general organics/hydroponics, cyco, & vegamatrix. My issue, is with the billion and one WORTHLESS additives they (&most others) sell. Im sorry, but NOBODY could tell the difference - (visually or smoke-test wise) between the 2...

    Training tips to increase yield!

    Just realize that not all strains will "cola up" equally in a SOG. Mist indicas are safe, but many sativa strains simply will not cooperate & your yield turns to crap. The tall girls will often fight you, guve you problems in a SOG grow. They typically need more time & space - but when they get...

    How far away do i keep a 150 WATT HPS light away form my plant?

    Also depends on your light intensity - if using LEDs, anyway. TRUST ME PLEEESE... you can absolutely cook your plants on light intensity alone - even if the temp is fine. This is more a problem with younger plants getting too much ppfd... it starts washing the color out, burns the tips, if the...

    How far away do i keep a 150 WATT HPS light away form my plant?

    Advanced growers know that stretch is a good thing in the right circunstances. It will increase yield by giving more light to the buds. Too tight of node spacing CAN decrease yields if you know your strain & when the timings right for your setup. Obviously you dont want a ton of pure stalk...

    How far away do i keep a 150 WATT HPS light away form my plant?

    Yes. We would like pictures. The only way I can figure a plant showing zero heat/light stress from a 400watt hid at TEN INCHES, is for the light to be encased in glass, with double ended air exhaust. So yes- please do like everyone else, & verify your claims by uploading pics. Because youre...

    Best LED for 3x3 flowering

    HT didnt consider Timber lights when releasing their "BEST LED LIGHT OF THE YEAR" award/whatever...? LIAR!!! Call them if you doubt me.

    Best LED for 3x3 flowering

    Btw- im getting 1400 PAR watts direct center, and 750-900 PAR 18" each way, & I dont get below 500 PAR anywhere in my tent... with a $170 qb288 that took 15 mins to assemble. So no... I dont think HLG is overpriced. They raised their price by what? $20? And then, because they sell out almost...
