A lot of people on this site bash the hell out of auto's
Most of those people have never tried to grow an auto. People always need to complain about something. What I don't understand, why the fuck do they care if I grow autos (or with CFL's for that matter).

They do not even take the time to ask why I am growing autos or why I am using CFL's...

Or why I am using organic soil...
Or why I run 20/4...
Or why my temps are 87/89f...
Or why I dont use Mylar...

Man, the list goes on and on. They just want to whine and fight.

With all the Wives Tales I read on here,,, I'd swear we are at a granny social sometimes!

I'm loving the MG debates too.
People bashing MG all over the place. Then along comes this guy and says,"Let's see". So he's growing 2 in MG, and 2 in FF. Pics and all. MG is pulling ahead. - LOL (gotta love it! :bigjoint:)

A lot of these folks remind me of the carpenters that say you really only need one tooth on a saw. - Yup, that's the guy to hire and listen to fer sure. :wall:

Same with some auto comments. Just chuckle, and turn the page. :-P

If I didn't keep watching, I'd never believe it was the same seed.
Gonna need some cab modifying in a day or so. This gal is HUNGRY!!!! :bigjoint:
I'm seeing a strong indica influence for sure. (:sad: I'm a sativa guy - LOL) I think she's shaping up to be "a looker".
I do have a concern,, but it can wait until Fri / Sat. :-P :bigjoint:

Holy shit KuLong! That looks awsome dude!!!!!!! (hangs head in shame :-()

How do you like the scope?
I'm still trying to figure out how to get a pix to a spot where I can post / print it.
I'm saving(?) but can't see where. :sad: :wall: :-(
Running XP, trying to put into (my) pictures in documents. Taint happening except by accident sometimes. And don't know why only sometimes. :wall::wall::wall::wall: :sad:

My desktop is old and maybe.....?
I'm going to install it on the laptop which is new w/ a updated oper system. Maybe a compatability issue? :?:

Instructions are rather spartan and clear as mud to me. :fire:

Those scopes look cool, but I probably wouldn't be able to figure out how to post pics either. I just take pictures with my blackberry.
Canon, let me know if you want some advice on modifying your cabinet. I think I'm better at building cabinets than I am at actually growing. I'm on my 4th one in about a year and a half. I just keep coming up with better designs.
Kulong, that plant looks big as hell for 25 days. I might have to look into that strain. It sounds like some of your conditions are similar to mine, mainly high heat. have you smoked any of it before? Can you give us a smoke report?

I keep modifying..... everything - LOL. I just keep getting these bright ideas. :-(:wall:
I'll take a few photos of what I have and see what your input may be. Always looking to improve efficiency.
In all honesty, I'm seriously considering going to a 75(ish) watt HPS in the top of this.
I've had 160+ watts of CFLs burning and still not getting the intensity / penetration of a 75 HPS.

Since it's probably not Cage related I may PM them to you. Maybe tomorrow?
I've a couple of sick dogs and may be a Vet day.

My PH was way down for some reason, like right at 5, so I ran a gallon of PH 7.0 distilled through Mable today. She is sad right now, so maybe I can post some pics in a few days after she perks back up. I was still only able to get it up to around 5.6 ish, but I didn't want to push it to hard. I'll go gradually up to get her closer to where she needs to be.

@Canon

I am loving the microscope! My wife and son loves it too! I just might have to get another one so we can all play.

To save your pictures is easy. You know the video screen you see the image on? Just click file>save as! Type a name like "test" and hit save.

Noob! :p

I live in a very hot and humid area. We have two levels of weather...hot and fucking hot!

I do not have a smoke report in this strain. Not only have I never grown this strain before, I never grown an autoflower before! It is a Snowryder from ShortStuff seed bank. Check em out, they are hella cheap.

Here is a small journal of my grow if anyone is interested. ---> Click <---

What Ph was down?
If it was the soil test that showed it that low, I'm affraid you'll probably need more than water.

I've got a 100 watt hps in my flower cabinet and it seems to be working pretty good, but i'm only a month into my grow with it, but yeah pm me what ever you want and we can keep this thread on topic.

I'm guessing from your avatar that you are in Taiwan? Where I live gets really, really, fucking hot in the summer, I've seen 118f. It's dry though, which is another problem for growing, so I've been looking for strains that can handle high temps. I had real low yeilds on my plants that I harvested this summer and I know heat was partially to blame.
Well I guess we will geat a smoke report on that strain soon.

There is a test going on as we speak and MG is pulling ahead
I've been following that mg vs ff thread too. I've had problems with regular mg and the moisture control, but my plants now are in mg organic choice and seem to like it.
