Hi, all, I have struggled for the last several grows with getting bud that tastes and smells good. My harvests have tasted and smelled poorly, no matter how much I "flush" my medium and plants. And I have come to realize why: I feed the shit out of my plants during flowering. I have read all...

Thanks, @70's natureboy! I have been agonizing over this for days. It just didn't make sense to me to have over half of the media not being flooded, ya know? I planted my clones nice and deep too. Can't wait to see how this turns out. I've been wanting to try SOG style for so long!

Hi, All, I am just getting back into growing after a bit of an hiatus and I decided I want to get into hydroponics. I decided to get into flood and drain, because I really like the simplicity and flexibility of this style of growing. I can try different types of media as well as convert the...

That's awesome, @topcat, and @HydoDan. Thanks so much for your help. I am very happy that you have introduced me to CDI. @topcat, which setup did you go with specifically? If you are happy with the performance of your fixture with the dimming, I would be happy to try it out. At this point, I am...

Thanks, Dan. This should be pretty helpful. I am looking to put some lights together like the ones found at https://cobshop.net/shop?olsPage=products/3x3-tent-special-4-cob-kit&olsFocus=false.

Yo! I did a quick search on the forums to try and find an answer to this question, but had no luck, so here goes . . . I have been watching @Greengenes707 on YouTube for quite a while now, and in his last grow facility he had a single COB fixture hanging off to the side of his main tray...

Hey, y'all. I did a quick look around, and I have done some YouTubing, and got some general ideas, but I would like to see if those of us who are using quantum meters and COBs have some input on this, too. Perhaps this thread will be able to help others like me who would like to see if any more...

I have always wondered how much flushing makes a difference, but I've always done it. I did grow a plant a couple of years ago that I thought wasn't flushed enough and it burned awfully, to little black chunks. I have never heard of flushing too much. Perhaps this is something that I need to...

I think that were dry enough--the large stems snapped easily, but I am going to take a look with a loupe and see what I see. I will also pop a hygrometer into the jar and see what it says. Thanks!

Thanks, all, for your comments and suggestions. I am going to try adding a hygrometer to the jar to see what it's like. It seems dry enough, but maybe it isn't. In the future I will get it to dry a bit quicker. Perhaps it was genetics? It is Tangerine Dream from Barney's Farm. I have heard...

Here are some pics . . .

Nope. They smelled really good. Just like any other plant I have grown. They smell and look good dried and cured, too.

@Alienwidow and @86Hemphill, I hung them to dry. It took about a week and a half or maybe a day or two more to get them dry, since they were in my basement. I put them in jars to cure, sealing them for a few days and then opening for a couple hours to breathe. I repeated this three or for times...

Hey, y'all. This has been bugging the shit out of me, so I thought that I would see if any of my RIU brethren had any ideas. My last grow, which was my first grow in a few years, has been dried and cured and is sitting in jars. I have tried smoking it in a paper, and even in a freshly cleaned...

Oh, and thank you all very much. I know this has helped me make up my mind about which direction I want to go. If it can help someone else find what it is they need, then I will be twice as happy.

Yessss... I definitely had my eyes on the 500 series of Apogee sensors. I even considered the SQ-420, calibrated for electric light sources, but I think the 500 (full spectrum) series is more attractive. @robincnn, the SQ-520 operates as a data-logger if plugged in to a USB power source on its...

Also, if @Growmau5, @robincnn, @Greengenes707, or @welight would be so kind as to offer suggestions, that would be excellent.

Hey, Y'all. If this has already been covered please just let me know, but I have been searching and haven't found any threads that really cover this. I want to get some suggestions for a good quantum meter. I have come to realize that measuring PPFD is going to be vital to tuning in my grow and...

This current grow is both the first grow with my very own DIY COB LED grow light, which is tits, by the way, and also my first time growing Pineapple Skunk by Humboldt Seed Organization (HSO). This will also be my first attempt at trying out a proper SCROG. I have utilized pinching, pruning...
