    Plant Light Receptors

    The short answer to your question is yes! If the "Top layer" of leaves is "busy", then the remaining (diminished amount) of light must find it's way down, deeper, into the canopy; to try and find an available light receptor. With "good old" Sunlight, this is no problem - with artificial lights...

    stopped growing

    When you switched to a 600 watt HID in your new tent, how did the temperature inside react? Heat can stop plants in thier tracks - they'll stay alive, they just wont grow! My guess is that if you keep the temperature down (below 80 degrees f.) everything should be ok!

    Longer cure the better?

    Would it be useless to point out that there is a whole forum dedicated to this a few forums down on the Grow Room's main index?

    dwc oxygen question for experienced only...

    As I recall, "air" is more like 20% Oxygen - "No biggie!". The point is, if you are injecting "Pure Oxygen" into your system - how will your plants get enough CO2? Yea, it's true, the roots love some Oxygen - but the leaves need a taste of CO2. It seems, to me, that even a slight...

    DIY LED colors

    When dealing with the actual spectrum of LED's, they don't use the Kelvin Color Scale (like 3000k). LED's are designated according to the wavelength of light they emit, measured in nano-meters (nm). The reason LED grow lights appear purple is because of the mixture of "Red" and "Blue" LED...

    Prop 19 Official Results Thread

    Here it is, almost 4pm (West Coast time), and still no exit poll results? I guess we have to wait for the "Evening News" to find out what the hell happened!

    how many times can you take a clone of a clone of a clone?

    Clones aren't really "an exact replica of the parent plant". They are actually an extension of the parent plant - part of that very same plant! The clones aren't "getting better" - your growing skills are!

    Hydroponic Stores

    That's true, it really doesn't come up that often - it's kind of "Don't ask, don't tell - Wink-wink, nudge, nudge". But one time the guy at the Hydro Shop asked me what I liked to grow (I'm a Grandpa so I really don't look the part of a "Grower"). I went blank for a second, then said...

    i know im ass backwards

    so ive got a few questions here.. 1. ... why not just start out with a big pot to begin with? Keeping the root system confined in a series of smaller pots allows it to develope more "uniformly dense", as opposed to "racing to the perimeter" in a larger pot (leaving much of the soil "sparsely...

    Dechlorinating water...

    The whole purpose of letting the water "sit still" before you use it, is to get rid of the Chlorine before it enters the system and impacts the plants. Yes, it will dissapate from the reservoir - but why put it there in the first place? And like Weedsmoka says, you don't really need...

    Need Help! What is optimal Co2 levels for my Sqft

    If you have the controler, sq. ft. doesn't make any difference! Set the controler for 1,500 to 1,800 ppm for maximum co2 benefit. I tend to be a little conservative, so I say 1,500 ppm!

    NO! On Prop 19

    That's partially true! If your city, or county, elects to "Stay Dry" by not allowing marijuana to be sold locally, they have that option. But, if Prop 19 passes (dispite the opposition from "The Emerald Triangle" and others) the California State law would still allow those residents to grow...

    NO! On Prop 19

    Of course there are restrictions built in to Prop 19, let's be reasonable! Under prop 19 pot would be considered much like alchohol, and subject to similar restrictions - I, for one, think that is realistic and unavoidable. Have you ever heard of "State's Rights?". There is already a great...

    NO! On Prop 19

    Voting against California's Prop 19 would "keep everything as it is now" - recreational use would continue to be illegal and consequently the price (of pot) would remain sky high. Anybody that profits from this "Black Market" setup would, likely, vote no on Prop 19 so they could continue to...

    Lighting Question

    Window glass, especially on vehicles, is commonly formulated specifically to filter out certain amounts of unwanted light. That's a whole nuther story! The "Safety Glass" on a grow light should be made of the most "Transparent" glass possible (hopefully!) - and ,like with most things, you get...

    Is it illegal to trade pot??

    That would depend on where you live and what your local laws are. But most of all it would depend on if you are a legitamate medical user (registered, etc.).

    anybody who has used Alaska morbloom i need your help

    It's like he said^. It's already 0-10-10, straight out of the bottle. If you want a gallon of it, you can get it for about $20., is that really what you're asking? Or do you want to know how much water to dilute it with? 0-10-10 means that the fertilizer in question (Alaska Morbloom) is 0%...

    Rotating Floor?

    Hey Jester - what's up? I've been playing around with this same idea for a long time! Just when I think I have it all figured out, I get what I think is a better idea (procrastinating! Spelling?). I have come up with 3 ideas that just seem to be naturals for a "Rotating Floor": 1. Use a...
