    A little help from fellow growers please?

    I know that heat rises but what is weird is the top half of my tent is cool, its only where the light shines on my buckets and the floor of the tent is where its too warm. Just where the light shines directly is where the high temps are. I can lay my hand on the top of the tube and leave it...

    A little help from fellow growers please?

    My fan/light is adjustable up and down and it right now is about 18-20" from the canopy of my plants which means its a little lower than half way down the tent. I have 2 digital thermometers, one is inside the tent sitting on the floor at the base of my buckets. Its monitors temp/humidity. The...

    A little help from fellow growers please?

    I knew it was long and I wanted to separate the material but I was honestly just trying to make sure I got everything in there and my damn phone doesnt do paragraphs very well because once the article gets so long if I made a mistake I cant go back and fix it, I have to delete everthing back to...

    WARNING! Digital/ Electronic ballasts can get you busted! The A.M. radio test!

    I could be wrong but I don't think digital ballasts are any more energy efficient than magnetic and magnetic do just fine. Digital ballasts have the luxury of diming and running various wattages but I don't personally think the limited benefits out weigh the risk associated with digital ballasts.

    General Hydroponics Flora Series

    http://www.amazon.com/GENERAL-HYDROPONICS-FLORALICIOUS-NUTRIENTS-PIPETTE/dp/B01AMZTQXY?th=1&psc=1 I just use single DWC Bubble Buckets so I really just keep up on PH and TDS though I probably should consider EC. The link above is the Florolicious Duo Base Nutes I spoke of.

    General Hydroponics Flora Series

    How does the GH Floralicious bloom and grow compare to the GH Floranova bloom and grow? When I bought the GH FloraSeries Performance Pack I didn't realize GH had more advanced nutes.

    How do you control your temperature/humidity

    I know this is a year ago but I made my own fogger with a 5 head ultrasonic humidifier disc in a 5 gallon bucket on a timer. I cut two holes in the lid and attached two hoses. One hose goes into the top of my tent because cool air and humidity both fall and the other hose goes to my AC vent...

    A little help from fellow growers please?

    Hello everyone, ive always been an outdoor grower but its not practical anymore for several reasons. I have done indoor grows in soil but nothing like what I have now.

    I may have missed it when reading through this post but I dont think anyone mentioned stainless air stones. They come in different microns also. They are made for oxygenating whiskey and beer mash and wine at the begining of fermentation. They cost more than regular aquarium stones but last...

    How Many Nodes Before Topping?

    Your link didnt work. I have never got a male from feminised seeds. Im new to hydro but ive been growing for 20 years, 12 on a serious note. Until I actually feminise seeds myself the only thing I have to go off of education wise is info on the internet. Just as much bad information as good but...

    How Many Nodes Before Topping?

    Actual feminised seeds are 99.5-99.9% female, a bit better odds. Usually no males. I am going to produce my own fem seeds. Theres two methods. I dont want him to give them to me, ill buy them. Most fems average $10-$12 per seeds after shipping. Ill pay $60 for 3 seeds to hopefully ensure I get...

    How Many Nodes Before Topping?

    How about a few of those seeds mate? Lol. Doesnt matter if they arent feminised, I can separate males from females on a 90% success before I even germinate them. Still get a few males but no where near as many. Out of 10 seeds I may get 1 or 2 males with my method.

    How Many Nodes Before Topping?

    Proof on a international basis, no. proof within my own experiences, yes. Even before I ever grew one plant inside hydro that people always had was miles better and costed much more too. $50-$70 an 1/8 compared to $25-$30 and it was well worth it. So much more potent, colors for green, orange...

    You know there are organic hydro nutes right? Not all hydro contains carcinogens, not good nutes.

    How Many Nodes Before Topping?

    Yes I know it has been grown for years and years but very basically. In the late 60's early 70's the strongest cannabis was 1.8% thc. Everyone can thank those who understand the plant on a biological and scientific level for all the famous strains that now surpass 20% thc. Trainwreck, White...

    How Many Nodes Before Topping?

    In my state there are two bills trying to be passed, one by July which legalizes cannabis for medical use which will prohibit home growing and I hope it doesnt pass. The other is on the regular fall ballot which legalizes cannabis for medical use and will allow patients with a prescription to...
