    Metal Halide 6500k vs 4000k is there any real difference?

    Hey folks, Basically the title says it all. I just realized that my HPS ballast can run MH too(duh!) so decided to ditch my vegging CFLs and get a MH bulb instead. There seems to be more 4000k bulbs than 6500k on the market and they are also slightly cheaper. So my question, again - does the...

    Can you change the smell of the buds?

    Hey guys, I was wondering if you can actually change/add smell to buds? I harvested before xmas and buds are coming nicely, unfortunately the best plant in the growroom turnes out to be a stinker, and not in a good way :/ Imagine the smell of used engine oil combined with the cyanoacrylate...

    My plants don`t smell - wtf?

    Hi folks, Basically the title says it all - my plants pretty much don`t smell at all :/ My previous grows reeked from like 3rd week of veg - not this one though. I`m 2.5 weeks into flower with those and they smell like pretty much any weed that you would find growing outside, nettle or...

    G13`s Sour Candy and Pineapple Express or any input on G13 in general?

    Hey folks, Already looking for some beans for my next grow and seem strangely drawn by Sour Candy from G13 labs, there`s also a G13 promo on the Tude at the moment where they chuck in some Pineapple Express in. I`m not really that interested in the PE and probably would give it away anyway, but...

    Messed up soil - any way out of it?

    Well I`ve had all sorts of problems on my current grow and another one just popped out - my growing medium which is "universal compost" with a little bit bit of perlite seems to have lost the ability to absorb water :( I have no idea how that could actually happen as all was good for over 4...

    pH meter calibration powder question.

    Hey folks, Just bought this rather cheap pH meter and it came with two pouches of of calibrating powder. My question is - do I need to use specific pH water(like distilled water) for the solution to reach this specific pH level or is the pH of water used not relevant? The manual it came with is...

    I must admit Im totally lost now, after switch to 12/12 fan leaves went yellow pretty fast and most of them died off, those that didnt were ok until about a week ago when they started going red-brownish :/ I ignored it for a bit and now noticed that this rediness is creeping onto bud leaves too...

    Well, this is my first grow and my two plants are exactly 22 days from switch to 12/12. I am a bit worried about the yellowing fan leaves.

    Clones by accident? Should i give them a try?

    Hi folks, Long story short - on my first grow 4 days after switch to 12/12 i dropped a fan:wall: on the bigger healthy plant(the other one is somewhat retarded) and it broke some of the branches off. On an off thought i cut the tips off and put them in runoff water, expected them to die but its...

    Disastrous start to first grow - could someone advise?

    Long story short(well not really): I germinated two White Diesel feminised seeds, sprouted very quickly, before my 6500k 250w cfl arrived. Not knowing what to do I put them under 2700k weak ass 20w cfl just to control the day/night regime(18/6) - that went on for about 4 days as there was a...
