    Dried Curled Leaves, slight brown spots, help!

    I have a small fan in the tent blowing next to them, and the way I'm cooling the light causes a general suction throughout the tent which is causing them to shake a bit. (No Co2, so I'm not losing that) I have the lights on 65% strength via a dimmable ballast, but perhaps I should raise it...

    Dried Curled Leaves, slight brown spots, help!

    I'm doing an indoor grow, soil. I have these puppies set up with a 1000 watt light in a 5x5 tent, with the light being air-cooled, 2 feet away from the plants. Right now the plants are in vegetative growth. I'm giving them a nightly watering with synthetic fertilizer (a vegetative growth one...

    A serious look at PC fans to power scrubbers.

    I know many people claim that a PC fan is not up to the task of creating enough pressure to effectively make a scrubber work, but I'm looking at this from a different perspective. I recently purchased a fat filter, and am looking to purchase a powerful PC fan to make it function. If this fails...

    PC fans for filtering air w/o temp as a concern

    I ended up buying a phat filter, the 8" x 8" with the 4" hookup. For personal reasons, this is very much so worth the risk. I don't want to turn this into a woe is me thread, so I'd rather keep this technical instead of personal. I'll experiment with some PC fans I already own on this, and if...

    PC fans for filtering air w/o temp as a concern

    I'm in my last year of schooling, so this would not be pleasant to be kicked out now. That being said, I'd like my entire set up absolutely perfect before starting any grow. I'm confident that if the odor was under control. one more computer in a room with computers won't be suspicious at all...

    PC fans for filtering air w/o temp as a concern

    So I have my PC grow, just gutted the thing, decided upon panda film to make it light tight, and a soil grow as this is my first time growing indoors. I plan on eventually trying my hand at hydro, but for now soil. So here is my question: I live with my parents, but figured I could hide a PC...

    Possible mold on bud, what to do? Already harvested.

    There are 2 spots of bud rot that I promptly removed, and have the harvest sitting in multiple bags to help prevent contamination. It's sitting in a well ventilated room with a space heater set at 87. However, I'm wondering if I should somehow bake the bud to ensure that any mold spores are...

    Grasshoppers, beetles, and caterpillars, oh my!

    So there are plants both in the middle of flower, and some not, and the main problem is grasshoppers, beetles, and caterpillars. I've heard bt works on caterpillars, but what about the grasshoppers and beetles? I need something safe for use during flower, harvest is only like 3-4 weeks away for...

    Dairy Doo?

    So I've had fantastic luck with Dairy Doo 201, and I have had some luck with Dairy Doo 301 as well. But I'm curious about Dairy Doo Tree and Shrub Mix. I'm tired of mixing my mix with sand, as the sand here is rocky, and some moron buried a thin layer of particle board over it all that needs to...

    Woke up to the Light Flashing, Will it Herm?

    I had put a single 75-100 equivalent watt 5000k cfl about 1-2 inches above and inbetween these 2 seedlings. I woke up this morning to find the light weakly flashing over the two seedlings, as apparently the light was dying, what a crap light! I put these out on the window sill, and changed the...

    The Great PreSoak Question

    Yes, Mandala claims that it's a bad idea to use the paper towel method, and to grow straight in your medium, however they make the exception for old seeds, and equatorial strains, explicitly stating these can benefit from a presoak. I'm just curious as the proper protocol for presoaking with...

    The Great PreSoak Question

    After reading an article on Mandala seeds, it is quite clear that pre-soaking the majority of seeds is a bad idea. However, the article states that some tropical landrace strains and old seeds (due to being dry for the old seeds) can benefit from it, but not he 1-2 days some people claim, only a...
