Well, I answered my own question with a little experiment. I washed out 1 cubic foot of General Hydroponics coco until the water ran clear. I then compared the before and after, and it was like two different products, both visually, and performance. The washed out product seams to hold more air.
guys
i desperately want to put some girls in the sun, but I'm scared. There is so much info to go through that i don't know where to turn. I know they get their peckers hard around here at the thought of busting a grower. One business man here donates his little helicopter to the local law...
one more question.
If i have hard water, which is basically calcium, magnesium, and Iron, would i be better off using that water, or use ro water with cal-mag as a buffer?
some say good, some say bad, the more i read the less I know.
Who has used General Hydroponics coco? My retailer started carrying it instead of Botanicare. He sais its the same "Grind", but the GH seams wetter to me.
hey guys, i got ten beans from marijuana-seeds.nl that gave me four females, all of which are different phenotypes.
1- is a purple sativa dominant pheno with a really strong bubble gum smell that turns purple at about week six-seven
2- is what i think was the goal, a thick white strain that...
This has been a very helpful thread. I stopped treating my coco like soil, and started treating it more like hydro. I started watering every day with some runoff, and my prayers seem to be answered. When i started watering daily, i had leaves that had turned yellow go back to green.
I went...
more photos. The last one is of my homemade timer. It consist of a relay, a cell phone charger and a four dollar timer from the dollar store. I have two 1k hps running off it.
Ok, this is the deal. Last summer, late summer I lost my White Widow mother, she was beautiful. I finally ordered Lemon skunk from Marijuanaseeds.nl.com. I now have four pheno types in the beginning of the seventh week of flower. I have run House and Garden coco nutes throughout. In a 75% coco...
Yeah thanks for the response ak.fortyseven. I have read this site more times than can be counted over the past two years. That is why I don't have allot of post. That answers none of my questions, it does mention the HID light though it doesn't bother mentioning exact distance or how much...
Two questions.
1. Is it best to take clones at the beginning or end of light cycle?
2. how far away from a 1000watt metal halide should I put them. I mean, can I let them share the light with their mothers and just put them in a dim area?
It does appear that a couple of the strains are not stabilized. I have grown WW and SSH. every female will stone u if grown proper, but if u are patient out of 10 seeds u will find the pheno-type that u r looking 4.
I had one of the most wonderful mothers out of my batch, all of my buddies were...
Botanicare COCO COIR was sent to us by the heavens to grow bud. I have used every soil combo known. I started using a coco perlite mix until i ran out of perlite and ran a batch with strait coco. I dont care how much you water, you will not over water this mix. A 6" pot filled with coco will...
One bulb. One ballast. Your strongest bulb will pull all the power of the ballast until the bulb blows, and then the next, ect. ect...
(I should read the entire thread before i post):oops: Sorry dude. I was thinking HID when i saw mogul base.
i have a 1k MH with a home made reflector and 400MH. I know i need more light, and now that you mention it; lighting is probably my largest problem. I wish I had HPS, but work is slack and this produces all i can smoke. I just want the best smoke is the only reason I cold think to increase...
