That shows that there is so much life going on in there that they're looking for more places to go!

I made the mistake of ditching a 1/3 full bag of unused FFOF soil after re-opening it and discovered it covered in the fuzzy white like that.
I have health issues, so dumped it in a panic.
Not knowing at the time that it was a good thing for the soil to have done that, and was non-toxic to me (provided one doesn't stuff wads of mycelium up your nose or in other orifices), and the plants would have loved it.
Live and learn...
... until my next mistake!

Are there EM's in sea green hydro ? My hydro store guy told me I shouldn't use sea grean if I'm using zone as zone kills errrthang ( southern accent )

Wet leaf pron.




This is my soil mix. In it is my EWC's which I composted myself, but was not able to screen. The sprouts you're seeing are banana peppers. I had this happen before with sunflowers that I threw into the compost. For some reason, the worms don't seem to digest the seeds and they end up sprouting in my mix. For the first while when potting up I have to keep pulling sprouts out of my potted plants. To me, they are natures PH indicator. These, along with the sunflowers, grow with the lid on. I know it lets through some light, but not a whole lot. With the sunflowers the lid was covered with a towel which restricted even more light, yet they grow and grow.

I don't know anything about grow shop products. Never used any. To me cannabis plants are just like any other so I practice what any other organic gardener does and get my supplies from where they do, except my lights and filters of course.

zone is for hydro, isn't it?

Just got off the blower with my friend and I'll be picking up a couple of rooted clones tonight. One Blueberry Jam from Dr. Atomic and an OG Kush from Royal Queen Seeds.

Never heard of Royal Queen before. Anybody have any experience with their gear, mostly that OG?

So I think I may have solved my heat issue @AlphaPhase @duchiemai was telling my buddy about my issue since upgrading my light 600+ watts and he told me that everyone where he lives simply vents into the ac vents to heat the house I didn't use the ac vent I think I chose the return vent which in theory is what I think he meant but all in all this is how it came out. Do you guys think it will help with the heat ?



And @DoobieBrother who needs a green house when you've got a green room.

Yea I've run a lil bit of their gear. Came as a freebie. Think it was OG actually...

I'll see if I can find any pics. She was pretty though!

 

[Enwhysea]

Hey giggles do you think my new duct work will work to keep my temps lower ? Or should I give up on running a 1k in a 2x4x7

 

[duchieman]

I think if it's going into your cold air return you should be ok, but I'm not an HVAC guy so I can't say for sure. I am pretty sure you don't want to be feeding it into your heating/ac output vents.

 

[curious old fart]

it will cause all odors from you grow to spread throughout the house if it's in the return.

[DoobieBrother]

Could get a bucket of Ona Gel to help with the odor, then venting it wouldn't cause an odor issue.

I have a little HVAC/R experience and have a question for you. Are you sure thats a cold air return or even an air return? Most cold air returns are on the floor due to natural stratification. If it is in a return, like COF mentioned, it's going to feed the smell to the system and then through the whole house. If it's in a supply run, then it will carry the smell through your whole house out of the other vents until the unit turns on. Then no heat will be rejected and more added but just temporarily. If you are not worried about smell then both should work just fine.

I'm doing a research project for my technical english class on the benefits of legal marijuana and came across a very interesting fact that I never knew. Cali was the start of the marijuana prohibition in the US. This research has to be 100% of my colleges data base by fact checked sources. I can post the whole thing but it's like 8 pages long, but here's what I found VERY interesting.

Marijuana's association with blacks and Mexicans, which marked it as an exotic drug used by inferior but scary outsiders, proved crucial to its prohibition. The bans began at the state level in 1915, when California outlawed the plant, and culminated in the federal Marihuana Tax Act of 1937. With marijuana as with opium, Lee observes, "the target of the prohibition was not the drug so much as those associated with its use."http://... I had a link but it wasn't good for a forum.

I figured if I was researching it being legal, I should start at why it was made illegal to begin with. I was surprised to find out it was Just another form of racism.

 

[curious old fart]

all of our drug laws were based on racism. First was the opium law which was "to protect our young, white women from the yellow peril." which was followed by cocaine where a sheriff testified before the U.S. congress that he shot a "cocaine crazed black man five times and he was still coming after him.'...all found in Ed Rosenthals first book that he co-authored in the early 70's.

It was against "wetback" labor that was perceived taking jobs away from "whites"
during the depression era. They wanted a reason to stop Mexican laborers from
crossing the boarder and reduce the black labor force by imprisoning offenders.
It didn't hurt that the other main user was Native Americans so it was just a bonus
chip for the gov'mt.

grandads balls, priceless......

Ok so im not sure if its a return there is no floor return in this room but the rest of the rooms in my house have them so i just assumed, also i have the fan sucking through my filter so smell shouldnt be an issue i didnt smell anything this morning. Also when i checked lights this morning i was at 78 so i dropped the light a bit and turned the ballast up to 100% it took the temps up to 84 which i can live with i thnk moving that duct up there really helped get the hot air out so did leaving my room door open.
