    Fox Farms Strawberry Fields...

    I know this post is a few months old but wanted to add my two cents. I have used SF for about 6 months now. I feel that my plants in flower did pretty good compared to the ferti-lome Ultimate Potting Mix I was using before. BUT, when I used it for my little plants in VEG it burnt the shit out of...

    carbon filter and ventilation question

    I have my room split vertically and I do this. I bring the air in through the bottom (my veg area). Then I have a duct to allow the air to pass from the bottom chamber to the top chamber. And finally at the top of the top chamber (flower area) I have the carbon filter/vortex fan. It pulls...

    To SCROG or not to SCROG...

    Holy crap! I used to have my rotation on a faster harvest cycle but I just got burnt out. Seemed like your always harvesting, trimming, etc.. I like a little longer cycle as a break from the crap work. But I could play with my time frame a little if needed for scrogging. From all I've...

    Do you need a mother plant to clone?

    Seriously? I started from seeds around May '10 and then started cloning after that. So maybe 7 generations in now. Mine actually look better than ever. But that's because I've finally figured out how to do it better. Curious when they might start to degrade? This was my main worry and...

    To SCROG or not to SCROG...

    Yes, I live in one of those areas. *sigh* And I see your point. I never thought of it like that. With a scrog would I be able to keep my 9-10 week cycle? Just fewer plants, spread out more, right? And in that space, doing a scrog, how many plants do you think? Cut it in half to 4...

    To SCROG or not to SCROG...

    Is it better to grow more plants in your grow space using traditional soil method or fewer plants in that space in a SCROG? Here's a basic diagram of my grow room. I've been doing 8 plants every 9-10 weeks in 3 gal grow bags. Currently I yield about 12oz every 9-10 weeks. The diagram shows...

    Do you need a mother plant to clone?

    Awesome. Good to hear. My veg area is pretty short so I've never kept a mom. Never gave it much thought before but it has been weighing heavy on my mind lately. Thanks for replies!

    Do you need a mother plant to clone?

    I don't keep a mother plant in veg. I just veg 8 plants and take cuttings from them right before I move them to flower. Then when those cuttings grow up I take cuttings from them and so on. Is this OK? Does it matter? Thanks.

    400w HPS to 600w HPS a good jump?

    Damn, wish I could go 1000w after seeing jojo. Just really complicates things to a new level in my closet with overloading the electrical circuit, heat, etc.. I can squeeze a 600 in with only the minor heat issue. Any difference in the cool tube vs. the enclosed hood with flat glass at the...

    400w HPS to 600w HPS a good jump?

    Awesome! Thanks for the quick replies. Lot of good info. Good to know 12oz is doing good. Always wondered if I was f'n it up or doing it decent. lol Anyway, my 400 isn't an enclosed hood. If I do the 600 I'll probably have to the glass enclosed hood and give it its own vent. My temps are...

    400w HPS to 600w HPS a good jump?

    I've been growing with a 400w for about 3 years now. For the area I have described below, how would an upgrade to 600w do in that size area? Would it be overkill? Would it be worth the cost to upgrade?? Or am I close to max for my size grow area? How much more heat would I need to factor...
