Now theres a couple of colas you wouldn't want to be Broke Back Mountained with!!!
HAHAHA that shit cracked me up
So your vert has 3 bulbs? why is the one in the middle off? That first pic kicks ass...
Hi guys, I'm very new to this and for my 1st time, I'm growing a single plant(iced grapefruit) in my loft. I have a 600w HID light and using a DWC form of hydro. My plan is get exp growing this girl and make her into my mother. I started from seed and it has been 14 days and to be honest its only bout 2 inches tall with 4 fan leaves. Ive just started her 4 days ago on 1/3 strenght nutes and my ph is 6. Seems to be a good root system. Ventilation is good. Light cycle is 20/4. Any ideas why she is so small???(compared to other hydro grows I've seen on the net)
Perhaps just try covering it with something when the lights are off. How close have you got the light at the moment?will get pic as soon as I find (prob need to buy) the damm connection for the camera. I stay in the west of scotland and my lofts a bit chilly. Thinking of getting a 400w halegon heater and putting it on 15mins every hour.
Sounds perfect bru! I was gonna say, do you have frame or anything built around the unit? If not, a few bits of 2x4 and some panda sheeting (black/white sheeting) I guess you run the lights at night for temps? It's gonna get cold up there even during the day I would say so either that or pay money for the heat I guess. Anyway, I am sure a few opinions will arise when you get a pic up.the light is about 18 inches m8. Ive got a plastic cover for the dwc shall I use it when its dark
I don't have a frame built but I do think its a must. Get paid on the 28th so new additions to the room will be added. 1. will build a frame. 2. will get heater with thermostat. 3.new connection for camera. lol. Cheers m8
I'm guessing if you can see pistils on one and not balls on the other, the other is probably a female also.and yes, sorry, on the first plant which I haven't topped, it's covered in little pistils with hairs which I'm happy about.
The first thing I did before I started using hid equipment is have a new 200 amp service installed with a new panel and I ran two 20 amp lines into the grow room that are only for the grow room...and now I am so happy I took that precaution. My house is old and has the original wiring, that does not concern me as much as the old original service did. As another precaution, I bought a CAP fifteen minute delay timer so if the power is interrupted the lights won't try to kick on when hot. It basically prevents your lights from trying to hot start. Just another precaution.DGT, glad to hear all you have to replace is a ballast. I am concerned about fire hazard and had already planned on building an extinguisher system for my grow. Now I think I will add some fire retardant material underneath my ballast as well. My biggest concern is that my new hobby would burn down my house.
Genuity, I was starting to get a bit concerned. You OK? You haven't been around for a bit. I guess things must be OK, you're still growin'...and quite nicely.Genuity alright my man. Looking massive and elegant all at once. Beautiful plants bro.
I got a 6" mountain air filter not the cheapest but good has given me piece of mind for over a year so far should last 2-3 years before i fitted it the whole street could smell my growQuestion. For those who can get clones legally, what do you guys pay for a clone?
Another question. I'm looking for a new carbon filter. I am looking at phat filters, carbonaire and phresh...anyone have any experience with any of them? I am really lookin' hard at that phresh filter but it's about one hundred ninety american.
Masonman, what did the shipping cost you with that eight inch filter?
