    Smoke detectors in a grow tent

    Anyone? A friend said to me he would never grow with a HID, esp HPS due to the risk of fire. I suppose there's a possibility, but Ive never heard of it happening. I've heard tales of drivers on LEDs catching fire, but again, never seen nor heard of it. I would think if this was a...

    Autos, when to switch from 600w MH to 1000w MH

    As I said, been growing photos for some time, both indoors and out. But I always wanted to give autos a try so I could grow smaller batches of different strains. You guys could be right. Now you got me paranoid. I just went upstairs and raised my light a foot.

    Autos, when to switch from 600w MH to 1000w MH

    I've been growing photos for years using 600w with good results. Are you saying autos are more light sensitive?

    LST autos, tie off or stake down?

    In talking with friends, and reading online, people seem to be split. It seems as many prefer tying their seedlings off to the side of the pot as do staking them down using a wire stake? To me, staking seems easier. But I'm sure plenty of growers feel otherwise. Thoughts?

    dogwalkers, anyone use these?

    yes, I understand. I hate rolling a joint. I was never good at it when I was 19, and now I'm 70 and I still suck. . I guess prerolls were made for guys like me.

    dogwalkers, anyone use these?

    I bought a bottle to try. Small, filtered pre rolled cones. If you have potent weed, these might be good.

    Dispensary weed in Ma is so cheap, is it worth growing anymore?

    I went to college in the early 70s. All the weed was crap. Seeds, stems, leaves. I recall hanging around the dorms passing around joints, and no one was getting really high. The coolest part was we were all 19 or 20 and knew we were doing something illegal. But more than once I can remember...

    Dispensary weed in Ma is so cheap, is it worth growing anymore?

    That's exactly what a buddy told me. Super dry and crumbly, and turns to ash at the sight of a light match.

    Whatever happened to Promix?

    Thank you. It's only a few miles from my home. Truthfully, I wasn't looking to buy Promix, but I was wondering why it seemed to fall out of favor in place of soil.

    Dispensary weed in Ma is so cheap, is it worth growing anymore?

    How about in Ma? How much is weed tested there, or it is tested at all? Most of the other dispensaries in my area are still getting $160-199oz. Why are these people giving it away.
