SOG is fine for those who are still working the black market, but for growers trying to maintain a grow in a legal state, it's no longer an option. And I've always questioned SCROG because of the time involved to grow, train and flower a plant. If yield is the goal you also ave to consider time...

I agree with you about regenerative organics. However, the same " more is better and too much is just enough" thinking also thrives among organic growers, and that is the source of error prevalent in both salts based farming and organic. People need to stop thinking they can force feed plants...

I wish I could! I have done so in person at various gatherings however.

It's not the lights, at least if it's a quality brand. It's long since been proven that LED lighting is superior to HID. Secondly, there is no way for HID to have better penetration when it's light output is non directional. With LED ALL the light is pointed toward the plants. I've been growing...

Does any one here know the actual difference between organic nutrients and so called salts based? Absolutely nothing! Soil life breaks down organic matter into the exact same "salts" organic fanatics warn you about! Ohhh but all those dangerous "chemicals" in it! yet NO ONE I've asked can...

Trainwreck!

I'm 72. My grow room is my Zen. Best thing I've done since retiring is grow weed!

I find that if you flower autos under a 12/12 schedule, they actually flower more slowly. I've got a NL auto right now that I grew separate from from another 5 in a different tent. I gave her an extra 2 weeks ( about 84 days ). I got a bit more bud than any of the other plants,. The buds were...

Coco works fine in this system. I'd recommend checking the pots during the dry cycle to determine how long the dry cycle should be. I'd say probably24 - 36 hours. My friend in Amsterdam used large mesh pots, so fabric pots could work well also. I've run a 70/30 mix of soil/coco and was very...

I actually learned this from a friend in Amsterdam. He grew monsters indoors! I'm talking nine foot Amnesia plants! He flooded his trays with enough solution that it took maybe 2 days for the plants to use up till the tray was dry, then gave them a day more and then flooded the tray again. I...

Beautiful bud!

My luck's been crap lately, after a series of winter related power outages, I router and modem slowly gave up the ghost, so my internet access has been spotty. All new equipment now......... let's hope that's it for a while.

I'm sorry for my absence. I've been dealing with severe back pain. But Im back and doing fine so I'll be here to help again.

Hey everyone! have been laid up with severe back issues. But I just had a procedure called IDET, basically they inject a wire into the disk, heat it up and it shrinks the disk. The amazing part is I am pain free! Totally! First time in 35 years! So my point is I'll be here on RIU to help...
