I feel as if the unit it about a 75/25 percentage in regards to air flow difference between the intake and exhaust side.

    If I stick my pinky into the soil one knuckle deep

    You can add a little stress in between feedings by allowing your pots or medium to dry out. Get an idea by picking them up and recognizing weight when fully saturated with slight run off compared to bone dry on the verge of wilting. If you feed right, you can save a lot of water and wasted...

    Botanicare Nutrient Users

    I run the expert line for coco regarding the entire kind series in my 5,000 square foot grow. Just like with anything else, I have learned by trial and error on how to dial in each strain with the feeding schedule. It is bio-synthetic and easily adjustable with the kind base (comprised of...

    Adower- I'm in the works for a scrog design as we speak. Since all my light are at a fixed height, I intend to mount eye hooks in the corners of the rooms and build large pvc squares with netting that allow me to raise and lower the canopy height with heavy duty ratchets. Will most likely build...

    First Grow. Suggestions welcome.

    Don't have much to worry about freedom. Looks like typical thrip or caterpillar damage. Try one application of Neem oil and check for further damage. Your roots look like white angel hair from the heavens and have great color. Hygrozyme can help in in your reservoir with minor applications. Keep...

    white fuzz growing on flowering plant

    Pull that bastard from the room as much as it pains you! Don't want the spores traveling to your neighboring plants. If you decide to keep it, chop the affected branch but remember that PM is systemic. The rest of the plant will still have the white "Aids" that all growers fear. For that late in...

    Adower- I feel that is everyone's worst fear. Since starting on this venture, it always seemed like a huge task but I have had support of a lot of great people. I was injured some years ago on a deployment in the middle east and definitely look at life with a different attitude. I have no...

    First Grow. Suggestions welcome.

    Are we talking mites? Maybe you could snap a picture of the damage or the critter themselves? For a small space like that, introducing some lady bugs can control a small space within a few days.

    First Grow. Suggestions welcome.

    Freedom- Congrats on your first off run and welcome to the community! As having years of trial and error myself, I've practically done everything wrong until I learned from experience. Your girl looks pretty strong. I might suggest backing off the nutes a bit and try to stay around 800 ppm...

    Newest Setup! 1 of 4 rooms

    Hot Diggity- I was able to make some wise real estate choices which paid for the space and some start up costs. We are covered as far as financials are concerned but will fine tune all of our rooms and establish a base line so margins can be cut. We are in the works for additional manpower as...

    Mattdash- We will have to talk offline for sure. I highly considered movers and only have a few problems with them. First being the added weight to the building we are renting allows for no more weight to be hung from the rafters as it's a pole building on concrete slab with the added cost...

    MattDash- Totally feel you on the power consumption and we are already in the works for more efficient upgrades with a rebate system from the power company. The toughest issue with a large grow is the startup. For me to be able to cover as much square feet in my grow with energy efficient...

    Lighting and closet set up

    I just know how much painting sucks and figure some double backed 3m would throw enough walls of cheap poly up.
