    Lowering humidity during flower.

    I wouldn't worry about 50% or even 60%. It means you will have to be more careful in your drying and curing process, that's all.

    Shorter nutrient/water container in hydro equal shorter plant?

    This came up in another thread. In my experience, plants in DWC grow to the height they are genetically programmed to grow to. One exception would be if they lack root space. However, I have grown 5 ft plants in 2 gal of water. You might want to think about a dwarf plant. One is Buddah's White...

    Why is my yield so low?

    Heat sounds kind of high. I'd lose the heater - the temps could go down to 60 in lights off and no problem. Those heaters don't have reliable thermostats - you could be getting high heat in there in dark time. That's why I have a thermometer that registers highs and lows over last 24 hrs.

    ph levels

    There's something seriously wrong with your ro water if it is 8.5. RO water should be 7.0

    12/12 from seed in DWC

    This is something I've never done. However, my experience with DWC "has" been that plants tend to grow to whatever size they are going to grow to, regardless of how long they are vegged. Those flowered early seem to catch up (and I'm strictly talking about DWC here). So, has anyone done 12/12...

    Would you spend $250 per seed for elite genetics???

    Genetics matter a great deal. But you can get the world's finest genetics for around $7 per fem seed now. This is about new whiz-bang hype and the early adopters who have to have it right now!

    Bucket color dictates water temps?

    My temp right now on top of the foliage is 81. On top of the res it is 68 and down in the water it would be lower still.

    Veg time 24/0 vs 18/6?

    If no-one can explain why it is real, then I have to conclude it is imaginary.

    max flowering time

    One more comment - I've heard growers say they have amber trichs and clear ones. Some plants will continue producing new trichs which will be clear. But you don't wait for them to turn cloudy or you'll be losing potency on the mature ones.

    I need a very happy, NON-ANXIETY strain... Want to begin hunting phenos.

    I wonder if anxiety doesn't reside in the smoker more than the smoke?

    Veg time 24/0 vs 18/6?

    Of course 24 hr light is for veg only. I'm not opposed to accepting that dark time in veg accomplishes something, I just want to see some evidence. I think it's a legend started by someone, spread, and accepted blindly as truth. There's a lot of that going around.

    max flowering time

    I'd start looking at trichs at 7 weeks just out of curiousity. Make sure you take several samples from different areas. I've come to disagree with those wanting to see lots of amber trichs. I think ambering is an indicator that degradation is imminent. As for yield, that shouldn't be part of...

    Dopest dope you've ever smoked

    Over 40 years ago I had something called Black African (probably racist today) and I've never had anything better. But old memories do tend to become unrealistic.

    Veg time 24/0 vs 18/6?

    You have the question backwards. It is incumbent on those who advocate 18/6 to show us evidence of why it is beneficial to deprive the plants of 6 hrs of energy each day. I have never seen any scientific answer to that, but anxiously await one.

    question about dwc??

    The air doesn't have to be on 24/7, but it's a good idea. What's the problem with the noise? If someone hears it, it's easy to explain away as something else. "I was painting in there and that's an air cleaner getting rid of the fumes." If it's about sleep, first you will get used to the steady...

    Water Chilling

    The easiest and cheapest way to cool the water is by cooling the room.

    General Questions

    Some say you can just keep adding light with advantage, but obviously there is a point of diminishing returns. Try it with 2 first.

    Does ona work?

    I like ona but find that febreeze products work just as well for us and you can get them at any store often on sale.
