    Ordering Seeds Online Question

    Unless you're ordering a couple hundred seeds, they have much bigger fish to fry. Don't worry about it. After all, the old joke is that terrorists could get WMDs in by hiding them in a bale of marijuana because no-one ever stops those!

    Hydrogen peroxide added to res???

    The only sense in which tap water should be considered "bad" is that you might not know what it's makeup really is. Therefore there might be something in it that would contraindicate its use. You can get free reports from your water company about tests that were done on your water supply. But I...

    First time diy bubble

    You have enough light perhaps to get seedlings started. Then you will rapidly need much more.

    What is the best way to grow without my girlfriend finding out?

    gfs are perhaps the number one reason growers get busted.

    Autoflower growing questions

    He means you need to decide between 1, 2, 3 or 4. And like I said, actual watts not claimed equivalents. It's not the time cycle that gets changed when they BEGIN to flower, that stays 24 hrs. What changes is the spectrum of the light. With cfls you go from 6500k or thereabouts, to 2700k or...

    My first bubbleponics/hydroponics grow, In a 38L rubbermaid tub

    Real bubbleponics means you rely on the high level of bubble action to feed your seedlings from under until roots are in the water. There is no need for water pumps and feeder tubes. Ironic that people call that bubbleponics.

    Autoflower growing questions

    Autos are ok but note that they are not all so small and the fast times they advertise don't always pan out. I have grown White Dwarf and they do stay small. I don't grow in soil so won't comment on nutes. Smell won't be overpowering at all and can be controlled. But it might be noticeable. You...

    Water Chilling

    You can't. We think you are strange so that's your nickname. Seriously, it goes away when you post more.

    Hydrogen peroxide added to res???

    You cannot use h2o2 if you are using anything organic or beneficial bacteria etc, that's the only downside

    Plant height?????

    That depends a lot on strain. It seems to me most of them grow beyond two weeks into flower. I have some LSD that was growing a couple inches a day at 7-8 weeks! They ended up over 5 feet tall.

    My first bubbleponics/hydroponics grow, In a 38L rubbermaid tub

    I don't think you need more than three gallons of water per plant, but the problem comes in them crowding each other for light. Even the roots tangling is no problem because they aren't competing if you have enough water and nutes. There are very many advantages to having one plant in one res...

    How much water in a dwc?

    You need to keep the water at a steady and predetermined level. It is good that they are drinking that much. It is important that you have some good bubble action in each bucket. otherwise, I think you have nothing to worry about. If you want to make sure, add a few tablespoons of regular...

    how long should i veg???

    I think this very much depends on strain. Also, I wouldn't think you could veg them long at all before they would overgrow a space that small. Maybe even 12/12 from seed.

    Light burn/Heat Stress

    I would think stunting growth and locking out nutrients would happen "before" you would see that kind of visual damage.

    Help on Best Time to Harvest

    I can't hardly see 50% amber at 8 weeks. That much amber by the way, means it has gone too far. More than a few amber and it is degrading. BUT, I'm surprised it is that far along in only 8 weeks. Did you try looking at samples from several locations on each plant?

    Plant height?????

    I'd raise the others up. The tall ones are probably almost done growing up, so the others can be lowered as they catch up. If that doesn't work, you can always bend them over.

    Hydrogen peroxide added to res???

    I use 1/3 cup in six gallons of water. That's ordinary 3%. I know people who do that every day and their plants look great. I do it about twice a week.

    let there be light northern light

    It's definitely an Indica high, but not couchlock (unless you smoke more than I do). It's heady enough that I can do things and even be productive! You didn't say how you were growing, but in dwc hydro, I find the plants mature at 3 - 3.5 feet pretty much no matter how long you veg. So I only...

    let there be light northern light

    You're about to grow one of the best strains ever, I grow nothing else. They are very forgiving, I pour the nutes to them with no problems, they are more heat resistant than many, stay fairly short, yield well and I like the effect. They like to produce big tops so whether you top them or what...
