    Stunting flowering plant?

    He's L.s.t. and topping his other plants. this was just his first one and it's gotten un-ruly. First seed was female and he's been learning as he goes.

    Stunting flowering plant?

    Damn! Knocking the bottom out just might work, if not for only another couple inches. He's got it set on this short table with all the electrical stuff underneath. Maybe he can re-position the electrical stuff and knock the bottom out. The tables only like 5 inches tall tho. Depending on how...

    Stunting flowering plant?

    He's using scott's potting soil that already has nutes in it. Feeds plants 4 mnths it says. He got it befor reading that it might make the nugs taste chemmy. Can he still use these "Bushmaster" nutes ya think?

    Stunting flowering plant?

    The space he has is the space he is dead set on using. Any bigger ruins the stealth, he'd have to take it out of his closet. I don't know what he's gonna do if there's no way to stunt it. Re-positioning the lights might work, but is it gonna be okay if the CFLs are on the sides instead of the...

    CFL VS. HID showdown/throwdown

    If nobody has tried it by the middle of January when my friend has the moolah to get his 250w HPS He's totally gonna try it. 23 vs. 42w would be interesting too, even though I've heard the 23's are more efficient.

    Males: genetically pre-determined or environmentally effected or both?

    Soo... not pre-determined then. Environment is what makes males/hermis. Right?:blsmoke:

    CFL VS. HID showdown/throwdown

    A four bulb (23w a piece) power strip fixture cost under 20 dollars to make and eats up 92w. Each bulb puts out 1600 lumens meaning 2 of these babies put out 12800 lumens and eat up 184 watts. So when it comes to 150w hps I think it's comparable when you take into account the fact you can have...

    Stunting flowering plant?

    A friend of mine is about 3 wks into flowering and his plant is getting too high for his box. Is there a way to stunt it's growth without stressing the hell out of it? Can the main cola be tied down to the stem at a right angle or something? Or will that really piss the plant off? Is there a...

    CFL VS. HID showdown/throwdown

    So your saying the bottom line is an HID just puts out more raw lumens than the same wattage of CFLs. Makes sense I guess. I'd still like to see a real world Bobby Flay throwdown. What would the ratio be to achieve the same results from CFL? 2:1 maybe? I.E. 400w CFL=200w HPS. Also how do I rep...

    Males: genetically pre-determined or environmentally effected or both?

    Is a male plant gonna be a male no matter what from seed, or can the way you treat a plant make it become male, or is it both? Same goes for hermis, are they born hermis or can you turn them hermi. I've seen alot of discussions about this but never any definitive answers. :blsmoke:

    CFL VS. HID showdown/throwdown

    Has anyone ever tried a side by side comparative grow using the same wattage of CFLs vs. HID lights? Every other factor would be the same. Same veg, same nutes, same strain, same everything. The only difference would be that let's say your using a 400w HPS for flower, you would then try 400w of...
