I decided to add the Nextlight Mini (150 watts) to the tent for enhancing the flowering phase. I know the idea was to go old school, but....

Yeah, I've never had a problem with tap water in the areas that I have lived.....But, I found one of those plastic inline garden hose filters that says it removes a bunch of junk like chlorine, chloramines, etc. I don't know if it does any good or not, but I know it hasn't done any harm, either.

Accelerated growth characteristics....plants drinking a lot more water....just an overall sense that the plants are happy under HID light.

And this is a very interesting point, I think. I appreciate the discussion and the comments about the Sun and all. I'm kinda getting old and I have been around growing weed (off and on) for many years....most of the time, without a clue auto what I was doing! I started out with fluorescent shop...

Update: Switched to 12/12 and changed light to HPS conversion. Plants range in height ~between 12" and 16". Tuna Kush X Hindu Kush is the largest plant and is drinking the most water. The Chocolate Thai F4 is showing female preflowers! The Northern Lights #2 is a beautiful looking plant with...

My understanding is that IR light IS heat. Correct?

I hear you. But, I have no explanation why plants seem to love the HPS color so much. Is it the heat coming from the bulbs?

Just curious as to why I can' find an LED fixture that produces the "sick, plasma-orange" color light, similar to the color that an HPS bulb produces. I have an HLG quantum board, a Timber COB light, an Area 51 light and a Nextlight Mini. Most all of them produce a "full spectrum" white type of...

The light intensity from those fluorescent tubes degrades very quickly. They will continue to draw the same amount of power from the wall, but the tubes will dim. This is somewhat counterintuitive to what growing marijuana requires -being that you need MORE light intensity as the plants mature...

I was beginning to think that I was going to have to make a bunch of bubble hash and then press that in order to get the budder texture, but, man....that flower rosin above looks great and I'm assuming it would be closer to a full-spectrum product as opposed to hash rosin, too. I just ordered...

Whenever I've grown flowers for smoking, I always appreciated getting a really "oily" strain where the trichomes almost explode at the slightest touch. But, it seems that pressing those types of strains produces a very runny final product. I've tried whipping batches until my arm is ready to...

MAN! That's how I want my rosin to look. I hope I get a strain that waxes up like that stuff. Outstanding! Thanks for posting!

Anyone?

I use coco as an amendment along with FFHF and FFOF....a handful of worm castings and some extra perlite. It's a very open mix and it dries very quickly when the plants are actively growing. In veg. Every time I water, I feed the plants Alaskan fish fertilizer (1 TBSP per gallon) along with a...

ApacheTech has a new bar light that seems like it would be a good deal for that size space. They are a well-established brand and usually at the outrageous price level.

I've been running flower in 90 micron bags, but it usually ends up very "sappy" and runny -sticky, hard to work with, etc. I've tried whipping it, cold curing, etc. and I can't get the texture where I want it. I haven't tried any other size bags, but I've been reading that some people prefer a...

could you run a bit of H2O2 in the water to prevent biological buildup?

The most challenging part is yet to come...the drying and curing. This is where you make it or break it as far as the quality goes.

I wasn't really intending to replace a real light -just something that would suffice for up to several hours....just to keep the plant "knowing" that there is SOME light coming in to keep it in it's cycle. I know they are underpowered. But...would they be good enough in a pinch for a few hours?
